I don't know what Schier was like in the 70s, but I certainly find it beautiful and peaceful here in 2020s!

The Maldives has a unique Grey Heron population, far out in the ocean. They enjoy the resort facilities, including resting on the loungers after a beer.

In Dutch their common name is Roerdomp, and I just learnt a few minutes ago that there is a popular children's book series "Ronnie de Roerdomp" - have you seen this?

Een feestelijke dag met de lancering van deel 2 van Ronnie de roerdomp van Arjan Dwarshuis in de winkel van Vogelbescherming Nederland.
Prachtig om zoveel ouders en kinderen te zien die, mede dankzij het mooie verhaal over de avonturen van Ronnie, enthousiast zijn over vogels 💚
