Another one today 😊I thought it was beautiful... I just didn't really dare to go onto the footbridges 🙈.. Bird kingdom: there's only chirping here 😃I actually saw the Marsh Harrier from the second to last picture shortly before that...

We visited @Beate for a weekend at her spa in Bad Liebenstein - and did a few short laps. No. 1 - the Breitunger lakes. They are an NSG and firmly in the hands of the local fishing club. The jetties are all fishing jetties - non-members are not allowed to enter. "Nevertheless" a beautiful area.
