Beautiful vistas in sunny Flanders. I spotted two black woodpeckers and quite a few buzzards. A gorgeous walk at #Averbode Bos en Heide.

Celebrating #worldwetlandsday at Averbode. After Belgium’s wettest ever January (equalling the 2004 record) it’s excellent to see the blue skies but also reassuring to see how much water can be stored in forests, moorlands and wetlands. Adapting to climate change is possible.

Waarom zijn we zo bang voor de wolf? 🐺⁉️

Het is 'misschien wel het meest controversiële dier ter wereld', denkt Femke Hilderink, wildlife expert van WWF. Ze weet alles van conflicten tussen mensen en dieren wereldwijd: tijgers, luipaarden ... en ook de wolf:
Zo gaan we om met de wolf wereldwijd en dit kunnen we ervan leren

Snowy teasels create such amazing shapes. The snow is so beautiful in Belgium this week.

Happy New Year! These are some of my favourite photos of 2024 in beautiful Belgium.
Sunshine shining through pine trees in a snowy forest. A bumble bee taking nectar from a pale purple flower head in a meadow A forest landscape reflected in the still surface of a lake. The blue sky and fluffy clouds are also reflected in the lake A view down a river, the water is calm with flat grassy floodplains surrounding the water. The sky is blue.

Merry Christmas 🎄🌲🎄This Christmas cactus looks sad and almost dead all year, but then always produces amazing flowers just in time for Christmas. A magical houseplant

Early morning Solstice wandering. Feeling inspired by the glimmers of light breaking through the darkness.
