Ezumakeeg, season has started!

Ezumakeeg is looking good! Waterlevel is perfect and today there were hundreds of waders, including a distant Pectoral Sandpiper which was hiding inbetween Ruffs. Furthermore several 100s Ringed Plovers, about 70 Little Stints, 10 Temmincks, several Dunlin and Curlew Sands and a Sanderling. Yesterday's Broad-billed Sand could not resist the Zugunruhe and left. The pair of White-tailed Eagles apparently have produced 2 youngs this year!


Meanwhile Icky has returned in the garden and is now irritating the local Starlings, Blackbirds and the Barn Swallows by perfectly imitating their alarm calls. He is brilliant!
