Just booked a last minute bird watching excursion, starting in 50 minutes. I’m on the island of Texel this weekend and the weather is crazy nice. Also, yesterday I got an explanation on how to properly use binoculars. Turns out I’ve been mostly doing it wrong all these years lol.

Well I never considered myself a bird watcher so I haven’t been super cognizant of what I’ve seen or not, but from this list the marsh one with the yellow head was definitely new to me. Very cool birds! But looking at all these through binoculars where all new to me! So that is very cool. I just got back in from a walk here around my home, I saw some cool birds again. the kingfishers (2) where the highlight!

They’re my favorite. I’m so lucky to be able to see them super often, when I was a kid it was mega special to spot on. My girl gifted me this yesterday haha

Nothing better than bird socks! Be careful though, once your friends and family realize you like birds, you'll get nothing but weird bird gifts for the holidays 😆 I just sent you a little Winter Wren from the Songbirdz NFT collection: https://songbirdz.cc/collection/2418 Unfortunately, all 3 species of Kingfishers are all fully owned at this point or I would have given you one of those 🫠
