Drunen, North Brabant, Netherlands
forest & park NL EU 2024

A calm weekday in the National Park De Loonse En Drunense Duinen in North Brabant in the Netherlands. Because it is only 9 AM in the morning, it is quiet here. Very quiet. (noise floor 28 dB(A) that is whisper noise). I have cut out the most noisy plane noise. Many birds. Carrion Crow, Short-toed Treekreeper, European Robin and a Common Wood-pigeon.

I am behind a 20 metre high sand dune in the woods. The sun is now just above the dune and my coat can go out. It is virtually windless. I hear many more birds that I don't all recognise.

More track today / More forest here trough the years
