Sunday, november 27: Yellow-legs
Another busy week and weekend (a wedding of some good friends was my first serious night out in months!) kept me from serious birding, but nevertheless I found some times to pay a visit to the gulls at Hoornse Plas. And it was well worth the effort, because at last, at last I saw a Yellow-legged Gull that looked like it's supposed to look, one that even I was able to easily recognize
But that wasn't all, because not far from this bird, another Yellow-legged Gull came to sleep, this time a splendid 3CY bird.
And to make the afternoon complete, a very fine and rather pale-eyed adult Caspian Gull joined the 400 (or so) Herring Gulls. Call me nuts, but this is enough for me to call this a successful birding weekend! More pictures can be found at my website http://pbase.com/martijnbot/recent

Hallo Martijn,
Wat een geweldige foto's heb jij gemaakt. Ook op de pbase site heb ik gekeken. Daar zag ik dat je een paar prachtige soorten op Vlieland hebt gespot, vooral de sneeuwgors is top!
Zelf ben ik vanaf maart 2010 bezig met het fotograferen van vogels en heb nu ook een website opgezet met mijn foto's (nog niet helemaal volledig)
