Sorry everyone - meant to send this directly to Don, not to the group.

Hi Don,<br>
<br>
Although Don & I lived for 3 yrs. in Amsterdam, we were not
birders at the time (didn't even have binocs!), unfortunately. So
I can only tell you that we saw lots of Oystercatchers and
Lapwings in the fields, as well as many Herons which we thought
were Gt. Blues, but it turns out must have been Greys since they
don't have Gt. Blues. At that time there was a nesting colony of
herons down on the waterfront not far from the central train
station. First time we ever saw herons up in trees. We were
always looking for storks, but never saw one. Thought we might
have heard a Nightingale singing very beautifully at dusk once,
but were unable to track it down.<br>
I'm sure you'll see lots of water birds.<br>
<br>
Have a wonderful trip!<br>
