Vandaag zagen mijn zoon en ik zoiets raars in het bos. Het lag tussen twee boomwortels van een oude boom in het veld van de jonge sparren. Het leek op schapenwol.
Of zouden het hondenharen zijn?
Wat denk jij?
Als het van en schaap is, hoe komt het dan in het Prattenburgse bos? Misschien heeft de wind het meegenomen?
đ Wat jij denkt dat het is?
I think it is a nest made by insects, a moth or caterpillar maybe, like the ones who make silk.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI don't know Sandi. I know sheep wool is also an attractive material for birds as it provides insulation and helps to keep the eggs and chicks warm. But it was laying in the sand.
VerwijderenI have no idea what it is, but the red leaves or flowers in the first picture are beautiful!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you DUTA. Leaves! Those leaves belong to a beech tree. It is common for beech leaves to persist on the tree for extended periods of time, sometimes well into the winter months. This can add an extra touch of warmth and texture to the otherwise barren winter landscape đ
VerwijderenWool from the sheep
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe wind or a bird tranported the wool.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt sure looks like sheep wool but like you said, how did it get there.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBeste Aritha,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenZeker niks van een hond... die zou dan 'bloot' zijn verder gegaan?!
Wol van schapen wat vanuit de draad, afrastering van een wei weggewaaid kan zijn—of door een vogel meegenomen als zijnde nest materiaal.
Pracht foto's.
Liefs,
Mariette
Dit is zeker van een schaap en niet van een hond.

Al pronto me pareció una bola de algodón. Se cultiva mucho en España. Al verlo detenidamente me inclino porque sea lana de una oveja.

Besos.
Without being able to feel the texture it's a bit of a mystery. It looks like sheep's wool but sheep are not known to shed in this manner as far as I know. Perhaps a sheep got caught up in a thorny bush, lost a clump of wool, and it was borne away on the wind.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt does look like sheep's wool. Possibly dropped by a bird?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDo you have trees that looks like cotton on them, and then they float in the air sometimes? Yep, I'm clueless so no help. Is that seeds or just dirty specks. hmmmm?
BeantwoordenVerwijderenLooks like kapok to me.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI stumbled upon something quite similar before - https://ofmiceandramen.blogspot.com/2021/10/kapok.html
Hugs and blessings, Aritha!
It could be low flying sheep. They make their nests in bushes and on trees low down. A bit like the haggis in Scotland. I've seen them often.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThank you for visiting my Blog and sharing a smile. Please call again. Also thank you for posting my Blog on your right-hand margin.
God bless.
Dear Aritha,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenFirst of all, I want to thank you so much for the comment you left on my blog. Honestly, your comment was one of the most kind and thoughtful I’ve received in my 12 years blogging. Wonderful to hear how ChatGPT is helping your son. I had not even thought about how helpful AI could be to one with dyslexia and it is great to hear about that. We’ve been connected in the blogosphere now for several years and I just want to say that has been a blessing to me. Thank you again! God bless you and your son! John PS I almost forgot to answer your question. đ I have to agree completely with David M. Gascoigne’s comment.
It does look like sheep wool in the photographs ...
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAll the best Jan
