Blue tits and other Drenthe birds, 1 May 2015

This is a video about Dwingelderveld national park in the Netherlands.

On 1 May 2015, before arriving at Hoogeveen railway station, a great cormorant flying and two roe deer on a meadow.

At the station, great tit, willow warbler, chiffchaff and chaffinch sounds.

Then, we arrived in Anholt hamlet near Ruinen village in Drenthe province. Not far from Dwingelderveld national park, and from the Ruiner bossen woodland.

In Lanka park in Anholt, blue tits. They have a nest in a hole in the shed, and fly towards it constantly.

Here, a chiffchaff sings as well.

A chaffinch arrives, to drink from a puddle. So does a female blackbird, while a male blackbird sings.

A buzzard flying high in the sky.

A few hundred meter away, along the road, a blackcap sings.

A jay. A great tit.

A song thrush sings.

A robin sings from a small tree.

Blue tit, song thrush and then a dunnock come drinking at the puddle.

After drinking, the female blackbird collects nesting material.

Meanwhile, again and again the blue tits.

Near the restaurant, a greenfinch couple.

Stay tuned, as there will be more blog posts about birds from Drenthe!
