Aalscholvers en Zilverreigers

Na de midwintertelling in het Buytenpark, heb ik 's avonds samen met Marga vanaf de doodlopende weg van de Weipoort meegedaan aan de Europese slaapplaats telling van de Aalscholver. In totaal telden we 169 Aalscholvers, 25 Grote Zilverreigers, 3 Buizerds en 2 Blauwe Reigers. Hier een foto van een Aalscholver gefotografeerd in september in de Starrevaart, waarschijnlijk één van de gebieden waarvandaan Aalscholvers naar de slaapplaats komen.

It was unusually cold, about zero degrees but no rain today. From the balcony of our room we heard the first of many Great Reed
