river floodplain NL 8PM 210626_0299.wav

Summer evening at the river. The church bell rings 8 PM. People in the distance enjoy the nice evening.


There are many birds such as the finch, crow, blackcap, common tern, redstart, oystercatcher, chiffchaff, blackbird, thrush. There is some traffic on the winter dike.

So this is a summer evening by the river in the Netherlands. A special painting.
