Birds on Texel in September

September is also an outstanding period for bird lovers, as this month is known as one of the most bird-rich months on the island. On a good morning, there is the chance to spot many thousands of birds. This is because many bird species migrate from their breeding grounds to wintering areas. The Eierland dunes are especially ideal for admiring this spectacle of bird migration. Many birds land at the northern head of the island and then traverse the dunes on their way south. This natural spectacle offers an unforgettable experience for every nature lover and bird watcher.
