For a long time I have been looking for this beautiful yet shy duckling. The nun is a beautiful sight in winter. The male has black accents on a snow-white plumage.
This nun swims between the reeds - shaded by the winter sun. The blue sky reflects in the water and gives a graphic effect to the image. Little nuns settle in the IJsselmeer region in winter. And you wouldn't expect it but they breed in burrows, often made by black woodpeckers. This nuthatch swims along the IJsselmeer dyke near Makkum in the National Landscape South-West Friesland. I find this an extremely calming and peaceful image. With its natural colours, it fits into many interiors and gives you a reminder of sunny outdoors in nature. The colours black, white and earth tones suit modern interiors.
