Wednesday Walk with a little surprise .

Good afternoon ,

This morning after dropping the wife at work, i went back to the nature reserve "De Schammer "to explore an area that i hadn't visit before .

The hands shows my last walk in this area and this time i was going to follow the blue line and then the yellow line to the right all the way back to the car that is parked at the red squares area .

After 2 hours i was back at the car with 475 photos .... , i picked out some of them the rest will be for archive and trashcan.

1 ) the first thing i spotted was a Grey heron hunting near the reet , i should have brought the tripod and big lens , good reason to go back again .

2 )The sun was playing hide and seek behind the clouds .

3 ) And then you turn a corner almost no clouds left , but left and right was plenty of water , according to people there should also be kingfishers here but haven't seen them yet .

4 ) and the next corner we see some clouds again , reed on the left side and some kind of swamp on the right .

5 ) Red clover flower bud this one is taken with the LAOWA lens .

6 ) on the left a farm and clouds are fading , also taken with the laowa lens

7 ) Flowering Erica

8 ) and also flowering Heath , you could smell them very well .

9 ) a see through between two tree lines sun behind the trees but the clouds are still there .

10 ) And then something i wasn't expecting at this time of the day .

11 ) it was trying to smell if i was danger or not, i was lucky the wind was facing me.

12 ) it was eating the blackberies , it did kept eye contact so i decided to make my self smaller by sitting on the ground.

this is the closest it got to me +/- 10 meters distance not a bad catch with a 105mm lens on a wednesday morning .
13 )

All images taken by me @stresskiller with my Sony A7IV + Sony 24-105mm F4 G OSS or the LAOWA FF 15MM F4.5 .
