Traffic and birds around.

About the picture
A residential area where everything is spacious and well laid out. The sky is light grey with soft clouds, making the daylight feel diffuse and calm. It is chilly outside; the tree in front of you has no leaves, so its branches stand out as thin lines against the sky. In front of you is a ditch that runs horizontally across the scene. There is grass on the side of the water, but it still looks a bit wintry. Across the ditch, a row of cars is parked along a quiet street. Behind them, you can see residential buildings that look typically Dutch: sleek, modern, rectangular, with light bricks and large windows. They stand in a neat row. In the distance to the left, you can see the outlines of the city centre.

Yes, Kevin, you're right. In our flat, they are honoured by the caretaker. Every year, he gives them a Christmas present on behalf of the residents. I believe that everyone should greet them warmly every time they see them.

Oddly, I like to hear these garbage trucks going through the city. They’re like laborious giant ants doing their daily job whatever it happens.
As well, Always amazing to hear the noises made by our trash when going in their abdomen.
