    Holtgast viewing platform - favorite place with audio station

    "The Heron and the Frog"
    The well-fed heron sits dozing behind the observation wall, set back a little so as not to disturb other members of its species out on the water. However, he has to struggle with a cheeky, cheeky frog who is sitting in front of him on the Aper globe and seems to be happily telling him: "You can't get me!" - As long as the heron is fed, the frog may be safe, but when the stomach will call, the deck will be reshuffled!

    Here you can observe the beautiful nature at the Aper Tief nature reserve. Especially at low tide, hundreds of different bird species cavort here.
