The “Leinepolder” near “Salzderhelden” are a protected nature reserve, which is filled by lots of dear and big birds. I cant give an overview about what to see there in total, but its definetly much!

Luckily there is a small parking area next to the “wolfsliebe” wolf reserve. Probably the high population of Kites and othe bird predators has sth to do with the…

First thing, when I got the new camera, I wanted to test everything. I went to some local “wildparks” and also 1 bigger animal park to do just that. Those pictures were all made with the a6700 and 70-350 f4.5-6.3 APSC lens. That setup is small and I feel very comfortable with that around people.…
