I've been in three different river-habitats in the Netrherlands, Vreugderijkerwaard along the river IJssel , with horses and rare broomrapes, Hedelse Waarden near Hedel at the Maas and Zwarte Meer, the mouth of the river IJssel near Kampen, with ships and an eel-fisherboat ccleaning his gear.
And a lot of Dutch skies of course :-)
Some images of the garden, Cruysbergen near Bussum and a not expected encounter with an oil platform at Hoek van Holland and some ships and a Herring Gull, which wasn't afraid :-) AND of course the reason why sheep are such a bad way to maintain nature... they eat averything as shown here an iris. This was taken in Cruysbergen, a special nature reserve....
More ships and platforms at http://pa.photoshelter.com/c/wolverlei (and a lot more images of course.
