The last few weeks it has been very quiet at the front. However, migratory Honey Buzzards were regularly seen with a highest daily total of about thirty birds on 12 June. The eastern current also brought some Red-legged Falcons to Texel. Furthermore, a Purple Glossy Starling provided some color but unfortunately this is an escaped bird.
