The aim of this blog is to share my enthusiasm for nature, especially birds. I've been a birdwatcher since my childhood. In the beginning I was mostly focused on twitching, trying to see as many different birds as possible. In 2010 I started to regularly paint and draw birds too, inspired by the great Hungarian artist Szabolcs Kokay. In doing so I have found a new way of looking at birds, which makes me appreciate much more every singe observation I make. This blog features reports of my recent birding activities.

Grazer Feld 04.03.2011

Last Friday I've been in Unterpremstätten in the south of Graz to make an interview with the CSR manager of Austriamicrosystems for the sustainability newsletter of Oikos Graz (the interview can be found here: http://graz.oikos-international.org/projekte/interview-mit-gerit-goetz-von-austriamicrosystems.html). As I've been already in the area I decided to make a short visit to the near Schwarzl lakes where I could observe a nice gathering of waterbirds, including five Red-crested Pochards which are quite rare in the area.

I didn't have much time but still I could make this sketch of three Cormorants and a male Tufted Duck.
