Ever since I was a child, I have been a great lover of birds, especially those that bird of pray (falcons, buzzards, harriers, etc.).
At that time I had a thick bird book and tried to recognize all the birds.
In front of our house was a large nature reserve where the kestrel was regularly praying and the marsh harrier was hunting. Many birds could be seen in the river.
In winter the meadows were filled with thousands of geese.
Many meadow birds could be seen in the meadows, such as lapwing, black-tailed godwit, oystercatcher, lark, redshank, mute swan…
Nowadays you unfortunately see fewer and fewer birds and it is becoming increasingly difficult to shoot the birds in their natural environment.
Since bird photography is quite difficult, it is best to learn this in a bird hut. Here the birds come close and you can take photos in peace and try different techniques. It is also possible to go to a bird of prey show.
This is o.a. organized by Fotowandeling Nijmegen.
