Dutch winter day - a photo on Flickriver

Dutch winter day

            The winters in the Netherlands have been mild in recent years with few frost days and even snow is a rarity these days.
Storks used to migrate south, but nowadays, due to the mild open winters, many spend the winter in the Netherlands.

But Storks, Herons, Cormorants and Kingfishers do have a problem when the waters freeze over.
Fortunately, temperatures will rise again next week, the ice will disappear from the ditches and canals and fishing can be resumed.

Another phenomenon is that at this time there are still brown withered leaves on the trees. Like the Pedunculate oak on the horizon in this picture.
This is not normal, but is due to the prolonged high temperatures in the autumn, which meant that the leaves stayed longer on the trees.
