The Nahe river iin Kreuznach is just teeming with wildlife.
I ventured a km or so upstream the other day to where it’s still a real river (before going all bipolar as it runs through the city,showing off doing white water rapids on one side and pretending to be a Dutch canal on the other) and discovered herons, cormorants and families of newly hatched ducklings.
And a swan
All very country-ish
