summer evening field village 1030 PM 240801_0874

Evening / night village Lage-Zwaluwe in the Netherlands.

The church bell strikes 10:30 in the evening on a summer day in the Dutch polder on the outskirts of the village of Lage-Zwaluwe.
To the left on the café's terrace you can still hear distant voices.

#0:24 A Northern Lapwing flies around in the dark.
#1:54 Various insects fly around. There are more and more of them.
#2:32 Nice anyway, those sheep on the dike.
#3:20 The Greylag Goose flies over.
#3:36 People on the terrace can be heard talking far away.
#6:42 Someone presses the horn twice as a farewell.

Some local traffic. Village Lage-Zwaluwe is 500 m from river Amer and Hollands Diep. You van hear the inland vessels. In front of the microphones the large polder. Behind me the village street.
