The blackbird is the most common and one of the most famous birds in our country. It is even the most numerous breeding bird in the Netherlands. Recently, however, the species has suffered from the usutu virus. Blackbirds are noisy. If a cat is nearby, they warn other animals with their loud alarm call for a long time. The nests are often easy to find, which means that many eggs and young fall prey to cats and crows. Despite these losses, the blackbirds are still very numerous: they compensate for this natural loss by raising many young. In the spring, the blackbird sings a beautiful song from a high place.

In de kelder van dit gebouw is een gloednieuwe fietsenstalling!
Een plaatje is een soort van ribbel, die met vele ribbels loopt van steel tot hoed einde. Op de manier van aanhechting van de plaatjes aan de steel, zit verschil. Van breed bochtig aangehechte plaatjes, mooie rechte plaatjes, plaatjes met een tandje, smal aangehechte plaatjes of sterk aflopende plaatjes. Samen met de verschillende kleuren van de plaatjes zijn dit kenmerkende eigenschappen om een paddenstoel op naam te brengen.

from my archives- taken 4 years ago on a trip to my homeland- the Netherlands. We took a tour on the canal at Kinderdijk-- one of the highlights of our time there. It was rather a dark day but we enjoyed it very much! It was my husband's first time in Holland-- a thrill for me!!
thanks for your visits, my friends, and have a great day.
Deze locomotief, genaamd "De Jumbo" verschijnt in 1911 onder nummer SS731 op het spoor, en doet ruim een halve eeuw dienst. In 1921 krijgt hij het bekende nummer 3737.
Deze locomotief heeft ongeveer 3 miljoen kilometer gereden en is daarmee één van de meest succesvolle stoomlocomotieven van Nederland. De Jumbo valt regelmatig in voor de nieuwere dieseltreinen uit de jaren 30 die door terugkerende mankementen geregeld niet rijden.
De locomotief heeft twee keer zoveel vermogen als zijn voorganger en is daardoor zeer geschikt voor sneltreindiensten.
Door zijn grootte krijgt hij de bijnaam ‘Jumbo’.
De 3737 maakt op 7 januari 1958 zijn laatste reguliere rit:
van Geldermalsen naar Het Spoorwegmuseum. Dit is tevens de laatste officiële stoomtreinrit van Nederland.
Lengte trein: 18.48 meter
Bouwjaar: 1911
Vervaardiger: Werkspoor, Amsterdam
This locomotive, called "De Jumbo" appears on the track in 1911 under number SS731, and has been in service for more than half a century. In 1921 he gets the well-known number 3737.
This locomotive has driven approximately 3 million kilometres, making it one of the most successful steam locomotives in the Netherlands. The Jumbo regularly fills in for the newer diesel trains from the 1930s, which regularly do not run due to recurring defects.
The locomotive has twice as much power as its predecessor and is therefore very suitable for express train services.
Because of its size it is nicknamed 'Jumbo'.
The 3737 makes its last regular run on January 7, 1958:
from Geldermalsen to Het Spoorwegmuseum. This is also the last official steam train ride in the Netherlands.
Train length: 18.48 metres
Year built: 1911
Manufacturer: Werkspoor, Amsterdam
Europe, The Netherlands, Friesland, Harns/Harlingen, Nieuwe Willemshaven, Cutters (uncut)
The YE 57 Eben Haezer is operated by Gebroeders
Nieuwenhuize B.V. from Yerseke and engages in mussel and oyster fishery. It was built in 1994 by Stocznia Txzw Sp in Tcew (Poland) and Maaskant in Bruinisse (Holland), It has two Cummins engines (702 kW). Size: 38,00 x 9,00 x 2,70 m, draught 0,840 m.
By the way: a cutter is smaller than a trawler (in Katwijk it's called a 'trolder'), mainly operates on the North Sea and only stays at sea two to five days in a row.
This is number 2 of the Harns/Harlingen album and 31 of Naar het Noorden.

The rather peculiar skyline of the former island of Urk, The Netherlands.
The windmills are 2.5 kilometres away from the lighthouse. Their tip height is close to 200 meters. Focal compression to the max.
