to the coast.

At the beginning of August, I spent a few days on vacation in Leimuiden with my mother. And on the last afternoon, she wanted to go to the Hondsbossche Seawall. Was only a little bit to go home. I had seen something about it at the Inside Out, but had no idea what to imagine.

Well, I found it really special there. Behind the dike is a true bird paradise “de Putten”. There you really need binoculars and we didn't have them.

Get off the shoes and get on the beach.

The sun was at a nice point around half past 5. So I did some experiments with that.

We took the bikes off the car for a while to get to the birdwatching hut a little faster before it got too dark. For example, the telephoto lens of my mother's camera allowed me to get the clots a little closer. There were two that were brushing heavily. Most photos have their crooked beak hidden under their plumage. So I was happy with these pictures. I had to shoot a bit through the reeds, hence the dashes through the image.

The stomachs started to grub a bit, so we went towards Schoorl in the hope of being able to eat something there.
