I was standing in the water, because I'm a little frog. :D

Careful Norrel, we don't want you to croak*.

*Incredibly witty pun may not translate.

Are there storks, herons or cranes fishing in these waters?

Op de één of andere manier komt me dit heel vertrouwd voor Norrel. Wat is het toch heerlijk om in zo'n drassig land te wonen. Leuke plaat.

Heb je het kasteel in Scherpenzeel nog gekiekt?

Groet, Frank

Dank, Tonia, water doet het altijd prima op foto's.

Well, Guy, I like to croak, because of the huge amount of princesses that's chasing me for a kiss.

The most common fishing bird in this place is the Great Blue Heron, frtzw906. Storks were seldom seen, but luckily their amount is raising. You could visit the pages of Tonia, she's got some beautiful pictures of storks. Cranes sometimes visit our country, but they are not very common.

Het vertrouwde plaatje vind je hier, Frank. Nee, het kasteel in Scherpenzeel heb ik overgeslagen. Ik reed in de buurt op mijn racefiets, en om zo de kasteeltuinen onveilig te maken leek mij ongepast. Wel heb ik dan vaak mijn compacte cameraatje bij me. De spiegelreflex is te zwaar op de fiets.

Where's the witty title?

Lovely photo, I'm enjoying your gallery, Norrel.

Thanks for leaving a comment, Mahdi and Jean. No witty title yet, I'm still puzzling on this one.

Norrel - Nice to see you finally gave this a Title! We all do agree with Guy on this one. You might enjoy the princesses, but if you 'croaked', you'd end up here !

someGuyinmasset, on June 21, 2009, said:

Norrel, going back a ways here there's a problem with your wording: "the huge amount of princesses" should read "the amount of huge princesses".

Norrel, on June 21, 2009, said:

I didn´t want to disappoint you, Jean, but after reading the comments of kamaly and Guy I had to change the title again.

It depends on the princesses, kamaly if I would take the risk of ending up near the pianos.

Thanks for helping me improving my English, Guy ;-) Here in The Netherlands we have a princess (our future queen), who is really huge, and has a matching name: Princess Maxima.

Very nice shot and title...

Heel natuurlijk dit plaatje. Je kunt het gekwaak al vanaf een paar honder meter horen denk ik. Mooi die Engels titel. Het wordt moeilijk in het Nederlands.

Groet, Jan
