Monique Smulders - Natuurnotities

Lekker struinen in de natuur verveelt nooit. Ik maak filmpjes van dieren en planten die ik tegenkom en leg bijzondere natuurmomenten vast. Houd mijn kanaal goed in de gaten, want in alle jaargetijden is er nieuws. Wil je meer weten over de planten en dieren in de filmpjes? Kijk dan regelmatig op mijn blog voor uitleg en interessante weetjes: natuurnotitiesmoniquesmulders.blogspot.com

Being outdoors is my favourite hobby. I film common and less common animals and plants and have a special eye for the landscape they live in. Enjoy the nature of The Netherlands!

Monique Smulders - Natuurnotities

Tonight, January 2nd, 19.00 h local time: my new Moods video: Tenderness!
Recently there have been many cloudy and rainy days. That could have easily resulted in a melancholic 'moods' film. I would like to start the year on a positive note and have chosen the theme 'tenderness'; don't we all need a little bit of that this time of year?
For this film I used material that I filmed in the years 2020, 2021 and 2022 and as a symbol of tenderness I chose the mute swan. Mute swans can be very aggressive when defending themselves or their nest, but their love is tender, they care deeply about their eggs and cubs, and even the "fight" for a territory (seen at the end of the film) is a graceful dance.

I dedicate this film to all people in war zones and all people who are discriminated against for who they are. “Make love not war!”

In my next post: apple blossom and the great landscape of Zuid-Limburg.

In mijn volgende filmpje neem ik je mee naar het prachtige Limburgse landschap: van de Bellet boomgaard naar de Geul.
