A wonderful private initiative; a beautiful bird hide, but much more than that. There are table and chairs, books and games and even binoculars. So you can hold out here for a while.

July 26, 2024, Sand Martin Observation Hut Weerribben (Twitterhut)

Bird watching spot in Scheerwolde. Wetering Oost is a polder, a large part of which is under water all year round. From the hut of the Twitterhut you can see this lake beautifully, as well as the "ribs" to which the Weerribben owes its name. The hut offers a unique view of Sand Martins, which breed here in the summer in the special breeding wall that was installed in 2014. It is a perfect foraging area for swallows because of the many insects that live in the Weerribben.

May 25, 2024: This is a bird hide and work of art in one. The name of the work is: "Viewing hut for non-existent Birds of the Rottige Meente" by O.C. Hooymeijer. Author of The New Guide to Non-Existant Birds of Europe. In the hut you will find posters with examples of these strange birds, such as the German Heron, the Brown Smoker, the Little Boot and the Field Warbler. Highly recommended to go inside!
