May 5 - 15, 2026 | Spring in the Netherlands offers great birding in a variety of habitats including the coast, heaths, woodlands, polders (marshland) and lakes. Areas such as the Waddenzee, Lauwersmeer, De Hoge Veluwe National Park and Oostvaardersplassen are famed for the sought after species that can be found there. May is the time when many local birds will be breeding, while late migrants are still winging their way north, so the overall list will be excellent.
