We are located in the mudflats of the Wadden Sea. Soon the incoming hight tide will flood the entire area and pushes thousands of foraging birds closer to the coastline. The most abundant species is the Dunlin – a tiny wader species that uses its long beak to pick in the mud for food. You hear their chatty calls coming closer and closer and suddenly the whole flock flushes close to the camera.
