Visit to the "Oostvaardersplassen"

From the lookout point, animals could only be seen on the horizon. Was certainly due to the wind direction coming from the northeast.

Therefore, Bieb decided but to photograph the present owl. (See her blog Biebkriebels for this).

 

Walking along the city farm

 These goats are very curious about what is happening on the other side of the fence or they are just waiting for food. One for Signs2 here.

Cat cafe

Didn't know we have one in Almere

 In total there are 16 cats

which are generally very friendly and sometimes also very playful

Probably nothing for a dog lover but they have delicious homemade cake and ditto coffee. One for Saturday Critters here.

 

Solid boys

On the animal meadow in the forest near Almere you will find a couple of sturdy animals (two rams and one billygoat). One for Saturday  Critters here.

Car with co-driver

 If you'd like to step aside for a moment, we can move on.

Also one from the past

And I still remember asking permission first making this one on the market in almere city,

Frog pond

Can you find them

In the end they were really everywhere.

Bat houses

Not only for birds but now also for bats. Bat houses on facades sign that people care about nature in town. One for Signs, Signs here.

Peace please.

Doves landed in the gutter.

But trouble was already under way. One for Our World Tuesday here.

A work out.

The nice thing about dogs is that they must go out and that keeps you also in movement by day and night. Finding a suitable place in the city is point two.

Mother and daughter

I am sure of one thing. No mouse in the English bookstore Waterstone after a visit of mother and daughter of the nearby flower stable in the Kalverstraat. One for Signs, Signs here.

Hot,hot,hot.

Better search for some water as here the pelicans in amsterdam zoo. One for weekend reflections here.

Cows

I prefer another kind of cows. One for Skywatch Friday here.

Little rest before going back

Last week around 0° C yesterday 20° C. Time to go for a serious bike tour

Gives us also a change to see the latest lawnmowers of the municipality.

Sofietje in cover

One for Feline Friday here.

A glorious day

It was such nice weather tuesday that we decided to go to the zoo and indeed what a difference with a bit of sun.

Never heard of a brush boar but who cares with this splendid sight.

Its a dogs day

Do we also get french fries with sauce.

First work then rest

After a workout on our silk bed cover its time for a nap.

In the Amsterdam Zoo

They see us better then we when the sun is shining. But for the Zoo you have to stand above the water on the sea lion terras to see them playing in the water. This is just a passing by. One for Weekend Reflections here.

Sofietje does skywatching

And what do you see? One for Skywatch Friday here.
