We learned from and are still consulting and or supporting the following sources of information about digital lightweight bird photography using Nikon (compatible ) equipment:
Dutch books and bird guides:
“ANWB Vogelgids” detailed dutch information bird species and determination guide, detailed but a bit heavy.
“Vogels” Volker Dierschke Vogelbescherming TIRION NATUUR compact lightweight dutch Bird Guide. Small book, very practical in the field and when travelling.
“Vogels van Texel” Vogelinformatiecentrum Texel & various photographers. Compact concise very practical up to date information about species observed at Texel, where to find them, their seasonal occurrence and migration period at Texel. By the way this is also a quite interesting large shop in village De Cocksdorp at dutch isle Texel, professional advice and repair binoculars, telescopes and other birding equipment and a splendid collection of qqq (opgezette) birds.
