Week long birding (in NL)

Fellow birder from Mumbai - Pragya - was over in the Netherlands for almost a week and while I was playing host here and while we tried to see as many cities and place here I also played catch up with some lone overdue quality Birdwatching.

This blog entry with over twenty picture were clicked in various locations in the Netherlands. We saw over 30 species of birds and a few lifers.

(I will try and update the text on this entry later. Meanwhile enjoy the pictures.)

Starting in Rotterdam -






Next stop Utrecht -



(this was a Lifer for me)



(yet another Lifer)

(Lifer again)

Further to a National Park near Arnhem -


(above Lifer)

And last stop Almere, a small town close to Amsterdam -



(And my last Lifer of the trip)


Strangely most birds (including some lifers) can be found in some part or another of India.
