Descrizione

High-water refuge Westerse Veld is a grassland just outside the village of Oost-Vlieland, which is located directly on the Wadden Sea. A very easily accessible place where many birds often come to rest during high tide and especially when the wind blows from the west - northwest . You can encounter groups of Oca colombaccio, Voltapietre, Chiurlo maggiore, Pettegola and Beccaccia di mare. And because this place is intensively birded due to its accessible location near the village, nice and somewhat more rare species are often discovered, such as in the autumn of 2022, for example Culbianco isabellino.

Nederlands: Hoogwatervluchtplaats Westerse Veld is een grasland net buiten het dorp Oost-Vlieland dat direct aan de Waddenzee ligt. Een heel gemakkelijk toegankelijke plek waar met hoog water en wind uit de west - noordwest vaak veel vogels te overtijen. Hier verblijven groepen Oca colombaccio, Voltapietre, Chiurlo maggiore, Pettegola en Beccaccia di mare. En omdat deze plek vanwege de toegankelijke ligging bij het dorp intensief bevogeld wordt, worden er vaak ook leuke en wat meer zeldzame soorten ontdekt zoals in het najaar van 2022 bijvoorbeeld een Culbianco isabellino.

It is located directly on the road and is easily visible from the road.

Alloggio

4 days Vlieland from € 384 for 2 persons in Hotel De Veerman

Island of Vlieland  >  Netherlands

Hotelletje de Veerman is a household name among Dutch birdwatchers. The hotel is ideally and wonderfully quietly located on the edge of the village of Oost-Vlieland and on the Wadden Sea. At low tide birds are foraging right in front of the hotel. The hotel also borders the Westerse Veld. These meadows and grasslands on the Wadden Sea are a magnet for birds. Rarities and vagrants are regularly seen here. From the hotel you can walk there within a minute. The hotel's breakfast is famous. It is not only very tasty, but bird watchers have also been thought of. At breakfast you get a bag to take lunch with you. This way you can enjoy lunch on a bench in nature during the walks and optimally enjoy the birds and the Vlieland landscape.
