Natural spectacle on the Wadden Sea

Unexpectedly we were able to experience a natural spectacle up close.

On a bike tour on the German North Sea coast between Büsum and the Eider barrage.

Huge crowds of oystercatchers gathered in the salt marshes on the Wadden Sea beach.

A great spectacle of these beautiful birds on the beach: red beaks, red legs and a striking plumage in black and white, plus a deafening piercing whistling and trilling.

And constantly new flocks of birds drew near. The sky was full of them.

A very special experience.
