A cow enjoying a break at the Obersee in Bavaria, Germany. They are very used to all the hikers coming to the lake and so it is easy to snap a portrait like that.

Vorige week een wandeling door het Haagse Bos gemaakt. Ongelooflijk mooi, foto's halen het niet bij het "origineel". Heel veel foto's gemaakt en een selectie hiervan (5 stuks) op flickr gezet. En dan te bedenken dat je vanaf het Malieveld alleen maar de Utrechtse Baan hoeft over te steken.
Het Haagse Bos op 24 november 2017. Zo laat in het jaar en dan nog zoveel blad aan de boom. Had er al lang af moeten zijn.

Dutch nature -
The Solleveld located between The Hague and Ter Heijde differs from most other Zuid-Holland dune areas because it consists for the most part of 'old dunes'. A special feature of these descaled dunes are a few heathlands, which, like other landscape elements, remind us of historic, agricultural use. The area is not very rich in relief and consists of dunes, dune forests, grasslands, dunes, thickets, shrubs and lakes. On the inner dune edge there are a number of old estate forests with a rich stinza flora. The Kapittelduinen lie north of the old mouth of the Meuse. This area consists of the dunes lying to the east of the beach, damp dune valleys, dune lakes, dune and estate forests, grasslands, thickets, bushes and a number of dyke sections. The area lies on the transition from coast to river area and more inland the river influences become increasingly visible in the vegetation. There are various bunkers in the Staelduinse Bos.

Het bos wordt beheerd door de stichting het "Zuid-Hollands Landschap". Het bos wordt natuurlijk beheerd, het wordt hierdoor meer ruige natuur. Dode bomen blijven liggen en leveren hun bijdrage aan de kringloop van de natuur. Vele insecten vinden er voedsel in en worden daarna zelf weer gegeten. Schimmels, paddestoelen en mossen vestigen zich op de boom en in de vrijgekomen ruimte voelen nieuwe planten en bv. vlinders zich thuis.

The Lackenby works, opened in 1971 by the British Steel Corporation, was a Basic Oxygen Steel-making (BOS) and Continuous Casting (ConCast) plant which received iron, produced in the Redcar Blast Furnace, to produce steel. Scrap steel was also recycled as part of the process. Its final three years of production was in the hands of Thai-based company Sahaviriya Steel Industries (SSI). Sadly SSI UK went into liquidation, with the last iron being tapped from the Redcar blast furnace on 18th September 2015. The structure of the BOS plant was massive, at over 200ft, and its scale can be appreciated by it dwarfing the large Di8 locomotive 8.703, which is propelling its laden torpedo wagon into the plant on 31st October 2012. Three years later this operation was to be no more, and demolition of the structures of the integrated Redcar and Lackenby complex commenced in August 2021, some fifty years after this plant had originally opened. The adjacent Teesside Beam Mill and some support services continue to operate at Lackenby, with steel brought in by rail from Scunthorpe Steelworks.
