April Fools challenge 2026 | Day 5 Happy Easter

This morning i went for a walk with the wife although it was windy and a lot of clouds there was still enough sunshine to enjoy during the walk.

We drove to the Schammer and parket our car there : https://maps.app.goo.gl/Rd7XmyYdU24Rtb8J9 and starting to walk underneath the old oak trees towards the highway A28 .

1 ) First thing that caught my attention were the clouds , the second one was this lonely dandelion / Taraxacum flower .

2 ) But where there is one ... there is always more

3 )Ficaria verna / fig buttercup / speenkruid , we came across this flower before earlier this week in another nature reserve in my area .

4 ) And another dandelion with some fig buttercup and some Glechoma hederacea in the background .

5 ) Looking upwards there are still no leaves on the old oak trees ,

6 ) Spotted a bumblebee feasting on the pussy willow , always a good sign to see some insects active already.

7 ) Bellis perennis / lawn daisy was also flowering in full.

8 ) The Birch tree finally started to show some leaves again

9 ) Glechoma hederacea

10 ) A drone fly / Eristalis tenax sitting on the Brassica napus flowers

11 ) Can you spot the Fulica atra in the water ?

12 ) Reet seeds glowing in the sunlight

13 ) another pond with lovely reflections on the water

14 ) Looking back on the path we walked next to the canal

15 ) Cycling path next to the canal also used for walking .

16 ) Another small pond also a lovely spot to try some timelapse video another daywhen the wind is less cold.

17 ) Cardamine pratensis / Milkmaids / Pinksterbloem , i was suprised to see it flower for two resons , one it's a bit early usualy it flowers at the end of April , and second the plant is underthreat and rarely seen these days.
