Starlings
Approximately 10000 starlings are currently seen on the Cappel-Neufeld compensation areas and the adjacent dike. From the observation tower a few avocets could also be observed and a meadow pipit was quite busy supporting the breeding.
Pileated woodpecker pair
As expected, it didn’t work quite as well with the X-T20 and the Fringer adapter. The camera is not as fast as the X-T3, but still usable. The pictures here were taken with the Nikkor 300mm f/4.0 PF.

Assignation at the feeder place. Besides several Eurasian Tree Sparrows and Great Tits, a Greenfinch and a Hedge Sparrow showed up during a 1h session. Unfortunately the Long-tailed Tits did not pass by. Have only seen them once here and the shots I took are not really worth to be kept.
