Mariska @mariska68.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Alan's #BirdOfTheDay is #ODG any Owl, Duck or Goose will do. There is no Alt theme today. #BarnacleGeese in the Netherlands are winter visitors, they breed during the summer in the cold Arctic north. However, there's also a growing resident population that has settled in the Netherlands year-round. 0444
