An American Robin (Tudus migratorius), or a Roodborstlijster, as it is called in Dutch,Ā was first spotted on sand dunesĀ before moving inland. I love the video of the crowd of birders waiting to catch a glimpse. ItĀ reminds me of the backshore, times ten, whenever a rare bird is seen on our shores!
Both videos were originally posted on Dear Kitty. Some Blog: American Robin in the Netherlands. Dear Kitty often reblogs my posts, sending new readers to GMG. Thank you Dear Kitty!
I feel a little sad for the lonesome fellaĀ and can only hopeĀ another wasĀ carried off course, too.
