Today we had the opportunity to watch some little Barn Swallows and their mother. The little ones obviously got their flying lessons. This pretty exhausting for the little birds and they rested very often at a fench at Ezumakeeg at the National Park Lauwersmeer. As soon as the mother was in the neighbourhood their mouths automtically open for some flie.

We also saw a Montagu’s Harrier which was hunting a hare. The hare tried to excape the attacks of the Montagu's Harrier and he survived. After a littje rest in the long grass he chose freedom.
