An insect hotel is a structure that is specially designed to provide shelter and nesting places for insects. It is often used in gardens, parks or natural areas to support biodiversity. Here is more information about insect hotels: Purpose of an insect hotel • Supporting biodiversity: Insect hotels help beneficial insect species such as bees, ladybirds, lacewings and earwigs to survive, especially in urban or agricultural areas where natural shelters are scarce. • Pollination: Solitary bees, which often use insect hotels, play an important role in pollinating flowers and crops. • Pest control: Some insects, such as ladybirds and earwigs, eat pest insects such as aphids, which can help to naturally maintain plants. Construction of an insect hotel An insect hotel consists of several compartments, each suitable for different types of insects. Commonly used materials include: • Wooden blocks with holes drilled into them: For solitary bees, such as the mason bee. • Hollow stems: Bamboo or reed for small bee species. • Pine cones or straw: For ladybugs and earwigs. • Bark and twigs: For spiders and other small insects. • Loam or clay: For bees that seal their nests with mud.

Along the Oostdijk between the Tonnekreek and Willemstad is 'De Wachter' a special work of art. De Wachter stands exactly on the spot where the storm surge on 1 February 1953 hit and flooded the Ruigenhilpolder. The work of art is an eight-metre-high hill, on which sheep can graze. The work of art De Wachter, by artist Marius Boender, was built along the Hollandsch Diep at the spot where the dike broke during the Flood Disaster in 1953. The reason for the monument was the completion of the dike reinforcement in 2001. The work of art is an eight-metre-high, pyramid-like clay hill, overgrown with grass. You can climb the work of art via a path that winds over the work of art. There is a good chance that you will do so in the company of grazing sheep. The creation of the work of art was a challenge, because factors such as weight (not too heavy), weather resistance (rain and wind) and construction (not subsidence under pressure from visitors) had to be taken into account.

Never been able to walk in a willow forest for so long. With lots of water lakes. The otter has his fun there, breaking trees and building dams. There are a lot of mosquitoes🦟

Interesting building on the dike

The area southwest of the Spieringsluis was redesigned years ago as part of Room for the River. With the refurbishment, walking paths have been created on the Jantjesplaat and Hoge Hof. Later in 2015, a footbridge was added to the Deeneplaat. You can enjoy walking here.

The sheep keep the grass short on the memorial
