Scamandre

And yet another one of the Camargue, in other words a photo that dates from this past Saturday. This is the entrance to the nature reserve of Scamandre (“Scamander” in English; I had to look it up, so you can, too), a beautiful area of some 215 hectares (531 acres) where one follows the very well marked sentier de la fromagère, the [female] cheese maker’s footpath. Apparently, it is so named because there used to be sheep around here. If true, they must have been the aquatic kind is all I have to say. On the way, one can see all kinds of wildlife (real and not so real—don’t ask) as well as absolutely gorgeous landscapes. Several photos of this reserve will soon be posted on my main web site; it’s just a matter of a few more days now. Patience...
