#FotoVorschlag: Unter der #Brücke // Under the #bridge

Unter der stillgelegten #Eisenbahnbrücke über dem #Umflutkanal in Biederitz grasen aktuell wieder unsere örtlichen Weiderinder. Auf diesem Bild zwar nicht, aber ich habe sie gestern beim Vorbeifahren gesehen.

Under the old #railwayBridge across the floodplains in #Biederitz, the local herd of cows is grazing at the moment. Not in this photo of course, but I saw them yesterday while driving past.

Ugh, so late already! This calls for a quick random shot of the #abandonedRailway in #Biederitz for #TrainTrackTuesday before I'm off to bed. Nighty night!

A #whiteStork for #WildlifeWednesday

They're back! I spotted my first #stork of the season in the nest closest to us on Monday. 🥹 This photo is from last year, taken just before they migrated. The stork is perched on a nesting aid, though this particular family prefers their organic nest in a tree. Meanwhile, the other pair in #Biederitz has made a chimney in the heart of the village their home.

#Pixelfed is acting up again today and apparently kicked out the social.lol instance, along with users like @[email protected] and others 😤

This calls for ... a dramatic #TrainTrackTuesday post, some irritated foot-tapping, and a spot of passive-aggressive muttering under your breath to express your annoyance at the current state of our beloved app. 😠

#FotoVorschlag: Typisch für deine Stadt/Region // Typical for your city/region

Hmmm. Gar nicht so einfach. Ziemlich typisch für meine Heimatregion, also das Gebiet Mittlere Elbe zwischen Magdeburg und Dessau, sind die Auenlandschaften. Ob Elbe, Mulde oder Ehle, wir haben ausgedehnte Überflutungsflächen, die zwar bei der jetzt eher typischen Trockenheit nicht oft zum Einsatz kommen, aber Städte wie Magdeburg schon öfter vor Hochwasser gerettet haben. Unser #Umflutkanal in Biederitz stand z. B. zuletzt im Winter 2023/2024 unter Wasser, als das Pretziener Wehr gezogen wurde. Ansonsten sagen sich hier Fuchs und Reh gute Nacht – oder auch Biber und #Storch. Das erste Storchenpaar ist letzte Woche nach Biederitz zurückgekehrt!

Hmmm. This is quite a tricky one. I'd say the #floodplains are very typical of my region, the Middle Elbe, which lies between the cities of Magdeburg and Dessau. Along rivers like the Elbe, Mulde, and Ehle, we have vast water meadows that occasionally flood to protect cities such as Magdeburg. While it has been rather dry in recent years, these floodplains still play a crucial role. This one in #Biederitz, for example, was last flooded in the winter of 2023/2024 to shield Magdeburg and other towns from Elbe flooding. Most of the time though, these #meadows offer abundant wildlife, including foxes, roe deer, beavers, and #storks. The first breeding pair of white storks returned to Biederitz just last week!
