Zouweboezem

On this warm summer evening I visit the Dutch nature reserve "Zouweboezem" which is famous among photographers as it is probably the best place in the world to take photographs of Purple Herons (Ardea purpurea/Purperreiger) in flight. From a dike you have a good view on these magnificent birds and the extended reed beds in which they breed; here's one that is about to land.
