Lauwersoog from above

A weekend with more flying than birding. I saw White-tailed Eagle and Bittern in Lauwersmeer but not close enough for a picture. More aerials on www.wykel.blogspot.com

Lauwersoog is an excellent spot for seawatching when winds are from Nortwest to North, I have seen Storm Petrel, many Leaches', Manx Shearwater, many many Sabines Gulls, all species of skua and Puffin from the harbour. Sardinian Warbler was here in november 1993 and Daurian Shrike in december 1996.
