I'm still alive.. just a lack of posting the past 1,5 months. Doesn't mean I didn't experience anything worth mentioning on my blog.. on the contrary..! I've been quite busy with my study lately. I had a field course including two weeks of practical assignments on the Veluwe, had lots of excursions and was busy for over a month with a course called Biodiversity of the Netherlands. In between all the studying I also did my regular ringing sessions on the Veluwe. Below you'll find a series of pics from the past weeks :)
