Shelter by the Pond in Holmer Sandberge

Exactly the lake could be very beautiful, if only it weren't nearly dry.

The lake is very quiet and beautifully situated. I took a break for an hour and listened to nature, saw frogs, woodpeckers, owls, deer and eagles almost like in the Disney film 🐸🦉🦅🦋🐞🦗🦆

The pond in the Holmer Sandbergen was once created through sand mining. Later, an additional shallow water zone expanded the area. There are no inflows such as streams. Therefore, only rainwater or upper groundwater-bearing soil layers feed the pond.Climate change has become particularly evident in the last three years. The summers had very little precipitation, but at the same time the high temperatures resulted in heavy evaporation. The water level dropped sharply.
