Nice rest area. In spring there is a lot going on here due to the breeding season of seagulls and other bird species

There's still a lot of Züdzucker to see here. It's really interesting that old sewage treatment plants have been transformed into a nature reserve.

September 10, 2026,🌥️Stille in der Wagbachniederung🌤️
Today is my weekly day off ☺️.
I only have time for an excursion in the early afternoon and I decide to go to the Wagbachniederung.
The silence that awaits me there surprises me... no chirping, no buzzing and no splashing on the water... it is totally quiet.
Unfortunately, this also means almost no animal sightings and thus unusually few …

I wanted to show my parents the Wagbach lowlands and the many animal species that live there. Unfortunately, there were surprisingly few animals today 🥲.
The landscape itself is very beautiful though, so we enjoyed it anyway ☺️.
I have to admit that I didn't know what a nightingale looked like and therefore didn't know what I was photographing today, …

The Ermitage and the Wagnachniederungen nature reserve near Waghäusel offer beautiful opportunities for walks or hikes.
The former sedimentation ponds of the Südzucker factory are now a beautiful nature reserve. Many birdwatchers 😉 were out and about with cameras and binoculars.
And then there's the Ermitage, a beautiful location. On Sundays, it also offers a museum, small exhibitions, and a …

No sun, the migratory birds are gone. Nevertheless, there was a lot to discover. And an encounter with a great photographer who doesn't share his extraordinary photos online. What a pity...

Even though the clocks were set an hour ahead tonight, I was awake even earlier than usual. Instead of staying in bed any longer, I got up and was at the starting point for today's tour at around 8.15 a.m.... the Wagbach lowlands.
I had actually planned the first visit for about two weeks, around the same time as last …

I wish you all a healthy New Year 🍀 and hope you had a good start 😊
With the beautiful weather today, I drove to the Wagbach lowlands with my parents, who are visiting.
In terms of animals, it was very quiet, but the light was just a dream 🥰
Nice first round in the new year 😊

This week I have two days off, time to make up for lost hours 🤗

Just like yesterday, today started gray and foggy again 🙄 and the promised sun didn't appear until midday.

I'm always amazed at how quickly the weather can change... My start in the Wagbach lowlands was still gray ☁️ and then everything changed very quickly... 🌞🌞🌞 …

It's supposed to rain today. That's why we picked out a small tour and left early to have a rainless time window. Was wonderfully idyllic and very quiet.
