is the month that the first summer guests come in steadily. Bluethroats, Wheatears and Chiffchaffs show themselves again and again. Black Redstarts, a scarce breeding bird on Texel, migrate in small numbers during this period. Lapwings and Black-tailed Godwits make court flights above their breeding grounds. The first Garganeys have also been seen. Very nice is the record of an 'early' Osprey on March 24 in the Muy. It is not difficult to predict that in the coming days Willow Warbler, Barn Swallow and Sedge Warbler will show themselves. Pay attention!
