Spotted: Beluga in the Netherlands
For the last week or so, a Beluga whale has been frequently spotted on the Dutch west coast. According to a local NGO, the animal is in good health and just seems to enjoy itself in the area.
For those of you who are interested in spotting a Beluga, but do not want to travel all the way to the deep artic, this might be a golden opportunity. I went myself yesterday and you could see the animal really well from the beach. Sometimes it comes so close that you can see its eyes and mouth without binoculars. On the Dutch website waarneming.nl, you can find sightings of the animal, so you can easily find where it is last spotted. From there it is just looking for the large group of wildlife spotters on the beach.
