An event that not only brings nature lovers together, but also provides the ideal opportunity to experience the beautiful world of birds up close. Zwin Nature Park also enthusiastically participates, where the feeding hut plays a central role in bird watching and counting. In this blog post, we take you into the enchanting world of bird counting and share why the feeding hut at Zwin Natuur Park is the place to do it.
