Hoppoe in eastern Austria
At Lake Neusiedler in eastern Austria I was able to take some pictures of an hopoe that was feeding it's offspring in an old wood house. Since it flew to the hole several times i was able to get some nice pictures before I decided to move away again so I don't disturb the bird too much. Both Male and female were constantly flying to the hole in the wood house and brought some insects for the hungry baby birds.

Hopoe with some food in its beak for the offspring. Picture: Florian Glechner.
