Deserted and just a few swans - very relaxing. I was amazed at how clear the water is.

It is particularly beautiful here in the evening, just before sunset. Linger and absorb the vibrations of nature. Listening to the birds, swans, grebes, coots, cormorants, silver herons and gray herons and occasionally watching a stork, yes, that's possible here.
