December 3, 2023,🦆🪿Nonnengänse in Freiburg an der Elbe suchen.

Almost at the end I found footprints in the snow.
😃 from a heron!

The barnacle geese were not to be seen today. Too cold. 🥶

Luckily, in the frosty sunshine there was still time in the afternoon for a trip to the Elbe and through beautiful Freiburg.
The many barnacle geese that used to be there were missing this year. Instead, there was a nutria🦫 and a sea eagle🦅 to see 😁

Komoot has been acting up ever since we went on vacation. In all my recordings, Komoot automatically set the starting point A to Wedel when I finished the tours. So I had to cut the last tours. It didn't work so well with this one because the walk through the city is missing. But the pictures are all there.

The Elbe and Islands nature reserve near Freiburg is like @Nicole's second home. On the way home we wanted to know: will we have just as much animal luck🍀?

Here is one of Nicole's many tours:

Freiburg an der Elbe is a historic town in the district of Stade (Lower Saxony) with an old harbor. "Schallen" (often called "Schallen" in Low German) refers to shallow depressions or hollows in the marshland where water collects, often overgrown (reed beds). They are the opposite of "Hullen" (raised areas).

These are Schallen,

Going for a walk in Freiburg after a long time wasn't really the best idea. Unfortunately, the path over the dike was closed, so I had to walk behind the dike for the first stretch. Unfortunately, I hardly saw any wild geese either. But I did manage to find a few nice shots 😉😅
The 🐇 somehow didn't look like …

"The early bird gets caught up in the rut" ....uhhh🤔....or something like that 😅 Whatever, it was beautiful anyway 🤩
It will probably be a while before flocks of wild geese are around there again.
