The Highlights of June 2025

June is not exactly the most thrilling month for birdwatchers. Migration has pretty much come to a halt—there’s still some movement, but compared to the spectacle of May, it feels rather uneventful. Personally, I even find June one of the slowest months of the year. I’m not too fascinated by fledglings, and after the excitement of May it’s a bit of a letdown to see the same species, in the same numbers, day after day in my local patches.

The highlights of May 2025

From my travels abroad, I regularly post updates on my website, but of course, I spend most of my time at home in the Netherlands. And of course I go out shooting here too. While the species may not always be as exotic as those abroad, there’s still plenty to see in the Netherlands. I’m particularly interested in birds, but occasionally I encounter special mammals as well. I’ve already seen a wolf, wildcat, and European otter here—and once even an orca! Recently, I also bought a macro lens to explore the world of smaller creatures. So, I thought it would be fun to post a monthly update with the photographic highlights of that month. Let’s kick off with May!
