Lage Zwaluwe, North Brabant, Netherlands
riverside NL EU 2023 Pack2

The Little Reed Warbler and the Common Chiffchaff sing their most beautiful song. Small waves crash on the stone barrier in the river. A car pulls up behind the dike and is greeted by the sheep.

Spring riverside with reeds and pollard willows and birds in frond. Small motorized boats pass over the river.

General;
View on busy Amer river with left in the distance waters named ‘Zuidergat van den Visschen’ and ‘Noordergat van den Visschen’. Boerenplaat is an island you see at the other side of the Amer river. Behind the river Amer you see the Nieuwe Merwede river. Other side river(s) 3 km away. Shipping on >150 m. The wind blows gently through last year's dry reeds. The waves of the ships are usually broken by the breakwater and the stone breakwaters that run 30 meters from the side in the longitudinal direction of the river. So the wave noise is coming from that distance. If the waves are too high, they land against the stone dike that protects us from flooding.
