Descrizione

This viewpoint on the Westerduinen is the place to see a flying Beccaccia on Texel. At dusk the males fly around here, looking for a female on the ground. With their characteristic grunting and squeaking it is more than worth a chilly evening in the second weekend of May. Several Succiacapre often buzz in the background.

Nederlands: Dit uitzichtpunt op de Westerduinen is een hoge duin die aan de noordkant toegankelijk is via een trap. Aan de zuidkant via een rolstoelpad. Bovenop zijn er wat bankjes om te zitten. Dit is dé plek om op Texel een langsvliegende Beccaccia te zien. In de schemering vliegen de mannetjes hier rond, op zoek naar een vrouwtje op de grond. Met hun kenmerkende geknor en gepiep is het een frisse avond in het tweede weekend van mei meer dan waard. Op de achtergrond snorren vaak meerdere Succiacapre.
