Green sandpiper and spoonbill on Texel island

This is a green sandpiper video.

This morning, 10 March 2016, near the bank of the pond outside the window on Texel island: a green sandpiper.

A mallard couple swam in the pond as well.

A bit later, also close to the window: a male pheasant.

Yesterday, a spoonbill on the meadow a bit further.

We had also seen shelducks, Egyptian geese and 88 curlews on that meadow. And a kestrel on a traffic sign not far away.

There will be more posts on Texel on this blog; but first the photographs will have to be sorted out.
