Monday morning we went for a walk hoping to spot some mushrooms and to see if the water was already rising again since it has been a very dry year here in Holland.
I brought with me The Sony A7II + Sigma150-500mm and the Sony A6000 + Minolta MC W.Rokkor-SG 28mm 3.5 to make this contribution to the #wednesdaywalk i hope you like it .
On Monday i already made a post with some Black and white images and now it's time to show the rest in colour.For those that missed the Monday post in Black and white
Flowering heath , because of the long draught only a few made it into flowering, but the smell was still good .
European robin , that is the first bird shot i made this year, didn't even get the chance to make a second shot.
And that is the first mushroom shot this year the Fomitopsis betulina / birch polypore / Berkenzwam

Blackberries not ready to eat yet but you could definitly smell them.
The clouds kept moving overhead we knew it had to be a short walk today.
Darker clouds were already showing up , the lake that you see normally has at least 1 meter higher water level .
