Spotting winter guests in the Uitkerkse Polder

❄️ Walk in the Uitkerkse Polder: Spot the winter guests of the Hoge Noorden! 🦢🦢 When the first frost sets in elsewhere in Europe, an impressive migration begins in the Hoge Noorden. Vanuit Noord-Norway, Greenland, and Iceland fly thousands of geese south to escape the harsh cold. Now that their adventurous journey is over, they settle in our own backyard: the Uitkerkse Polder. This winter, thousands of “frost geese” - Tundra bean geese, greater white-fronted geese, barnacle geese, greylag geese—are coming again to feast on the nutritious grass in the vast meadows. A beautiful spectacle that you have to experience live. 🌬️ Why you should come along?
