No worries Paul, it's much more difficult to avoid deer thans foxes in this place

Nevertheless, I will try to bring in some diversity too.

A project is going on to cretae more natural edges along the canals

Literal translation from Dutch might be blue heron, but in English it is grey heron (Ardea cinerea). (And then there is also great blue heron (Ardea herodias) and little blue heron (Egretta caerulea), but those are American species.)

Thanks for the company this morning and for starting this thread Harm!

It's always a pleasure to walk around with the camera and friends in this area.
However, it now has been my third time without spotting any foxes, which the place is famous for


Here's the proof Harm was there

FS-1 Harm in action


FS-2 And a close up of the heron


More to come!

This morning Fred_S and me had decided to go for a stroll in the Amsterdamse Waterleiding Duinen, an area of outstanding beauty, originally intended for the purification of Rhine water for Amsterdam, but nowadays also a natural reserve.

We forgot to make the group portrait (of 2 men) but we had a wonderfull walk.
