Spring bird migration, observed in our garden

Wendehals, Wryneck, Jynx torquilla beim Kurzbesuch im Feigenbaum April 2021

The Corona Pandemic has severely restricted us birdwatchers and photographers in recent months during the spring bird migration.

Luckily, the migratory birds have returned to my waterpoint in the fruit garden around the fig tree. So I was able to welcome a whole range of different types and capture them in the picture and video.

I was particularly impressed by the short visit of the wendehals at the fig tree, and in addition, a bluethroat was staying in the area of the nightingale for several days.

Otherwise, many bird species such as .B. redtails, snappers, grass mosquitoes and many others gave themselves a stelldichein at the water point under the fig tree. Here are some pictures from this time.
