Double Duck

Half ice half water.

Not yet ice to skate on.

But they seem to try a little skating.

At the Market

At the market on the Nieuwmarkt in Amsterdam. The lady is testing all kinds of olives and the dog is  patiently waiting to go on. Linking to "Camera Critters" and "Saturday's Critters"

A dog's life

On a warm day I don't want to stay inside the whole day, so then I lie on the pavement watching all the people passing by. Linking to "Camera Critters"

Swan lake

Must be nice to have some company when sitting on a nest. I had to think of them this morning when hail storms and even wet snow came down.... The coldest end of April since 25 years here, 4.3  degrees C (39.2F) . Linking to Camera critters

Hello

This cat and his cute companion I noticed in a street in Amsterdam.

Oostvaardersplassen

When walking in the nature reserve of the Oostvaardersplassen dark clouds were coming from the left. When we heard some thunder rumbling we decided to return to the car.

This toad was on our path waiting for us to pass.

Surprise

Yesterday morning we had a big surprise, snow! Sofietje couldn't believe her eyes.

What to do, in or out?

She took the safe way over the stone ledge behind the pots.

But then decided to brave the crossover home through the snow.

She made a nice pattern.

Summertime

I always like to watch dogs enjoying the outdoor life. First a snif,

And here we go, round and around, scratching my back.

He, he, that was nice!

We still have high temperatures and no thunderstorms in our neigbourhood. The heatwave is now official, 5 days in a row with temperatures above 30 degrees C
