Dutch Birding

Dutch Birding Stimuleren van het bestuderen van in het wild levende vogels en het documenteren van bijzondere waarnemingen. Dutch Birding Association, wie zijn wij?

De stichting Dutch Birding Association (DBA) is in 1979 opgericht en heeft als doel het stimuleren van het bestuderen van in het wild levende vogels en het documenteren van bijzondere waarnemingen. De belangrijkste activiteit is de uitgave van het tijdschrift Dutch Birding. Daarnaast beheert de DBA een landelijk systeem van Dutch Bird Alerts (zie www.dutchbirdalerts.nl) waarmee bijzondere vogelwaa

rnemingen zeer snel en efficiënt bekend kunnen worden gemaakt aan de deelnemers. Dit nieuwe systeem heeft de plaats ingenomen van de bekende Dutch Birding-vogellijn, die de vogelaarsgemeenschap decennia lang uitstekend heeft bediend maar ingehaald is door de moderne techniek. Een mogelijkheid om interessante waarnemingen telefonisch door te geven is er nog steeds: via de Dutch Birding-inspreeklijn (010-4281212). Ook deze meldingen worden opgevangen door de beheerders van Dutch Bird Alerts. De website van de DBA (www.dutchbirding.nl) biedt inzicht in alle activiteiten van de stichting en bedient begunstigers en niet-begunstigers met foto's van zeldzame of bijzondere vogels, recente waarnemingen, pdf's van reeds uitverkochte nummers van Dutch Birding en heel veel andere informatie. Andere activiteiten zijn onder meer de jaarlijkse DBA-vogeldag met lezingen, presentaties en een 'vogelaarsmarkt' en de jaarlijkse Dutch Birding-vogelweek - sinds 1986 elk najaar op Texel - waarbij vogelaars samenkomen om bijzondere vogels te zoeken. De DBA publiceert naast het tijdschrift Dutch Birding ook CD's met vogelgeluiden en vogelboeken, zoals de Dutch Birding Kenmerkengids (2002), het Verklarend en etymologisch woordenboek van de Nederlandse vogelnamen (2004), en Birders - aan de andere kant van de kijker (2007), en werkt samen met andere partijen aan bijzondere uitgaven op ornithologisch gebied, zoals het standaardwerk Zeldzame vogels van Nederland - Avifauna van Nederland I (1999).

A new issue of Dutch Birding (48-3) is out and includes eight papers and two reports. In the first paper, Enno Ebels and Gert Ottens describe the first record of Spectacled Eider for the Netherlands – probably the most unexpected and most popular of all vagrants in the country to date. The second paper, by Marcin Faber and Anna Włodarczak-Komosińska give details about the telemetry case study of the annual cycle of Ring-billed Gull ‘Kajzerka’ in Europe and mixed breeding with Common Gull. In the third paper, Jeroen de Bruijn, Han Zevenhuizen, Bram Rijksen and Enno Ebels describe the first record of Eastern Red-rumped Swallow for the Netherlands. Next, Diederik Kok, Rutger Rotscheid and Enno Ebels discuss the second and third Caspian Stonechat for the Netherlands. Furthermore, Manuel Schweizer, Peter Zeller and Nicolas Martinez deal with the separation of Striolated Bunting and Cinnamon-breasted Bunting in southern Arabia. The new issue also includes notes on the second Pacific Loon for the Netherlands, the first Ashy Drongo for Saudi Arabia and the third Blue Rock Thrush for the Netherlands. The regular WP reports and recent Dutch reports have the latest news with over 40 photographs of rarities. Highly recommended! More at: www.dutchbirding.nl/journal.

A new issue of Dutch Birding (48-2) is out now, and as always, the content is varied. In the first paper, Justin Jansen, Enno Ebels and Gert-Jan van Veen give details about the first record of Allen’s Gallinule for the Netherlands. The second paper, by Enno Ebels, Herman Feenstra and Mark Hoekstein describe the second and third record of Sandhill Crane for the Netherlands. Another article, by Mariano Martínez, deals with the identification of second-cycle Azores Gull in autumn. This paper, with over 60 photographs, describes the plumage variability in second autumn (September to mid-December). Next, Peter Alfrey, Vincent Legrand and Julien Hainaut describe the first record of Lesser Striped Swallow for Kuwait and the Western Palearctic ‘sensu BWP’. Furthermore, Manuel Schweizer and Jochen Dierschke discuss the controversial female-type ‘black-eared wheatear’ from Helgoland in October 2002, at the time eventually considered to be an Eastern Black-eared Wheatear but now identified as a Western Black-eared Wheatear based on DNA, and deal with the identification of autumn female-type ‘black-eared wheatear’. The new issue also includes notes on the breeding attempt of Tawny Eagle in Algeria and recent increase of records in this country and the first record of Brahminy Kite for Kazakhstan and the WP ‘sensu BWP’. The regular WP reports and recent Dutch reports have the latest news and many photographs of rarities.
