Netherlands, Ilperveld. Sequences of small waterbodies in Holland are often the result of peat digging in the old days. A lot of these peat ponds or pools (dutch: petgaten) are vanished. And because they are biodiversity hotspots, a.o. for wetland plants and macroinvertebrates, Landschap Noord-Holland decided to dig new ones. Now, researchers are curious about their development over the last 10 to 15 years. Kite aerial photography (self portrait, upper left corner of image). 500px.com/photo/56487022
