Standing strong - Four brown cows Braakman panorama

Four brown cows standing strong in the green meadows at the shores of the water. Originally a large tidal inlet in the middle of Zeelandic Flanders, the Braakman now has shrunk to a remnant due to successive empolderings, and was finally closed off from the sea in 1952. In Braakman south, a new nature reserve area is now developing due to reverse allocation of farmland to go back to wilderness. Nature reserve Braakman Zuid, Philippine, Zeelandic Flanders, Zeeland, the Netherlands.
