  1. Genieten van roepende wulpen, zingende leeuweriken in het laatste zonlicht op de kwelder van Schiermonnikoog.

  2. Ein heimischer Großer #Brachvogel toleriert die durchreisenden #Strandläufer. Die schauen nicht mal hoch. Man teilt sich den Sumpf ohne viel "woher kommste, wo gehts hin".

  3. Wo der Salzwiesenlehrpfad aufhört nochmal ganz tief durchatmen, ganz tief ins Watt zoomen, zwischen den fernen Pünktchen ein bewegliches entdecken. Ein #Brachvogel sucht Wattwürmer.

  4. Blows the wind to-day, and the sun and the rain are flying,
    Blows the wind on the moors to-day and now,
    Where about the graves of the martyrs the whaups are crying,
    My heart remembers how!

    —Robert Louis Stevenson, “To S. R. Crockett (In Reply to a Dedication)”

  5. You see that I will have to rise
    And turn round and get back where
    My running age will slow for a moment
    To let me on. It is a colder
    Stretch of water than I remember.

    The curlew’s cry travelling still
    Kills me fairly…

    —WS Graham, “Loch Thom”
