Co-existence in Habitat: A Heron’s View of Oegstgeest, Netherlands

The Netherlands, Oegstgeest – May 2024

LAPC #306 is ‘habitat’. As humans we share the earth with lots of natural life, we share habitats (the human home, the natural ecosystem), we co-exist. Our relation with earth is not balanced. It tilts favorably towards the human interest, disrupting the natural habitats of many. If we as humans do not change our relationship with earth, then humanity kills itself, leaving a planet to recover from being abused. Not survival of the fittest, but termination of the dumbest.

Show a special spot in a shot is the brief.

In front of our house is a small canal that is looked upon from the kitchen window. The animals and the canal are, just as plants and flowers in the front garden, sometimes subject in my photographs. Here is a recent visitor: a Heron.
