Thanks Brettje! This was filmed near Dordrecht, just north of the Hollandsche Biesbosch.
I take it you are Dutch as well? If so, whereabouts?

I'm an English expat, living not too far away in Leiderdorp, just east of Leiden.
My username is what my work colleagues call me, being almost 2 metres tall

Nicely done! I hope the focus on mine works like that if I ever need it to!

Hahah seems like we will need to find a way to coexist with our feathered friends!

Ah, ok! Might be difficult flying there with a lot of NFZs... I flew at the vlietlanden once, and the beach offers some good foying as well.

Yeah, I have no clue why it worked so well tbh... lots of lick involved I guess!! Wishing you the same when you’ll meet “your” bird mate!
