  • Dear Kaethi and Henri, my owls asked me to thank you for visiting them. Indeed, soon I'll no room for all these owls but I'm sure that I'll manage to find a place for the future members of the family. Wishing you a wonderful week, Yair.

  • Ach Ihr lieben, wenn Ihr wandern geht freuen sich mein Herz und meine Augen! Traumhaft schoene Natur und Eure Fotos erfassen die besten Blicke und die schoensten Momente. Wir sind gerade vor ein paar Tagen von einer mehrwoechigen 5000km Autorundreise zurueckgekehrt und haben auch mal wieder etwas Natur genossen. Ich bin auch gerade mal bei Evi vorbeigallopiert und hab das wunderschoene Rosenalbum gesehen, dass sie fuer Euch gemacht hat. Viele liebe Gruesse und Kuesse aus Houston! Marita

  • Greetings Kaethi and Henri from South Carolina. Thank you for your comments on my albums. I want to thank you for sharing this beauty from France. My sister just visited Provence and attended a cooking school there. They were just enamoured by the beauty and elegance they experienced there. Your photos bring that alive to me as I view what you have been blessed to see. tom

  • Hello Kaethi and Henri,your nature albums are always very appealing to me. Your wonderful photos of wildflowers and poppies remind me of our peaceful trail walks. It seems strange when you comment about the 'buddleia' being too plentiful, we buy them in our garden centres to plant in our gardens. Your love of nature is obvious from the detail as captured in your camera lens. Thank you for visiting my albums and your encouragement. Regards from Paris, Ont. Roger

  • Bonjour Kaethi et Heinz, J'aime beaucoup cet album; Les coquelicots sont magnifiques, la buddleia est très jolie et la calystegia aussi! Merci beaucoup pour vos gentils commentaires sur mon featured album. Bonne semaine et à bientot, Tatiana

  • Hi Kaethi and Henri, I love this album and the water ponds, the flowers and the woodscapes. Strange how nature looks like what we have here in Ottawa in some places. I think it might be because that region is on the same parallel: 45 :) I enjoyed my tour with you. And I want to thank you very much for visiting my "Bicycle Ride along Ottawa River Travelogue". Your comments are very much appreciated. And Barbara is so nice for telling her friends and inviting you to visit. Having a common friend makes us friends too. Thanks again for everything and have a great day. Yan :)

  • <font color="#000090" > Hello Kaethi and Henri, I love poppies. They are such simple yet astonishingly beautiful wild flowers. I also love chicory. They have such a beautiful blue color and such differently shaped petals with that unique cross cut that looks like a tailor has been busy trimming their petals with pinking shears. You have a very nice album here of an inviting place teeming with color and warmth. <font color="#b00000" > Greetings from Florida, Paul. <font color="#000090" > P.S. Thank you for your very kind words on my Pandas album. I have been away and not able to respond before now. Red Pandas are not related to Giant Pandas at all and I can't understand how they ended up with such similar names. Giant pandas are bears, while Red Pandas are more closely related to the North American raccoons and weasels and the South America coatimundi. The Red Panda (common name: fire cat because of its beautiful fiery color and facial resemblance to a cat) is an endangered tree dweller found only in the forests surrounding the Himalayas. It is poached for it fur and preyed upon mainly by Clouded Leopards. </font>

  • Chers amis, je sais: j'ai à nouveau innondé votre boîte à e-mails avec mes commentaires sur vos photos, mais je l'aurais aussi bien fait pour chacune d'entre elles (encore heureux que je me suis retenue un peu, non?). C'est qu'il y a toujours quelque chose de remarquable dans vos images (et on peut aussi aimer une photo sans qu'il y ait une raison spéciale, n'est-pas?). En tout cas, j'ai beaucoup aimé cet album! Que de l'excellent travail comme d'habitude! Et je m'en vais dans la cuisine... et, après, un moment dans le jardin, où maintenant que les jardiniers ont fait le plus gros du travail (j'ai fait installer en plus une serre pour pouvoir jouir quelque peu du jardin quand il fait mauvais -chose habituelle par ici-), donc, maintenant Tatiana et moi jardinons sans arrêt (des petits plants à repiquer, nous ne pouvons aller plus loin que ça!!!!)Et après: vite le kinésitherapeute!!! (enfin, c'est la vie...) Gros bisous et à bientôt... Llum

  • Hello Kaethi and Henri I enjoyed following along with you on the walk. The poppies are beautiful and they reminded me of a neighbor of mine the served during the Second World War when he got home he planted poppies in his yard. They are a beautiful flower and have such meaning behind them. It was nice to see you are still getting out and sharing your photos. I liked the Heron that must have been a highlight to your walk. Your friends Norm & Cindy

  • Salu, Käthi und Heinz, das ist ein so herrliches Album. Zu schade um es nur so durchzublaettern. Unterbreche hier meinen Spaziergang, komme aber bald zurueck. Die Fotos sind ein wirklicher Genuss.Bis bald, umarme Euch herzlich bisous, Evi

  • Bonjour Käthi & Henri. J'ai eu beaucoup de plaisir à contempler ces petits bouts de Nature dans votre si joli pays de Béarn. J'aime beaucoup votre département, le béarn et aussi le pays basque où mon grand-père s'était fait construire une maison dans les années 30. Cette villa basque existe encore à Biarritz, mais malheureusement elle n'est plus à la famille. Grand merci pour votre petit mot dans mon "guestbook" de l'album sur la cantabrie. Débora ne m'a pas pris en photo, mais mon épouse Liliane et moi-même apparaissons dans le très joli album que Joana (serena_100) a réalisé sur Pals et Peratallada. Félicitations pour votre album si frais et si coloré! Un vrai régal! Amicalement, Gérard

  • Hallo Käthi und Heinz! Habe soeben Euer Album angeschaut und bin begeistert ob all den vielfältigen Blumenbilder! Euer Spaziergang war wieder einmal ein grosser Erfolg, beansprucht aber auch viel Zeit und Geduld,was Euch aufs beste gelungen ist. Es ist ein genuss all Eure Fotos in Vergrösserung anzuschauen! Ich gratuliere Euch zu diesen künstlerischen Bilder!! Ganz herzlich,Eure Schwoscht und Schwägerin Omi

  • Hello Kaethi & Henri.. Thankyou for letting me know about this beautiful album (I cannot rely on the People Tracker, sometimes it does not tell me). Enjoyed this wonderful nature walk with you, especially through those magnificent fields of Poppies. Your river is so calm and you found so many pretty flowers to photograph too. Interesting Pond with all those tadpoles, etc that you 'caught' with your camera. Well done!! Yes, the introduced Buddleia is so pretty and attractive to Butterflies, but it has also been declared an Environmental Weed in Australia. Pleased you enjoyed my flowers, very few roses now as it is almost time to prune them ready for Spring. Best wishes to you both.. Gladys, Wastern Australia.

  • Good evening Henri and Käthi. Thank you so very much for your kind words about my poppies. I have called to take a peek at those you have captured. It is always interesting to see how others capture the same subject. Beautiful album my friends and well presented as always. Kind regards, Jayne xx

  • Bonjour voulus Heinz et Kaethi. Félicitations par cet album tellement beau dans les rivages de Pau. En voyant avec attention chaque photo il est comme s'il avait marché avec vous par tous les coins de ce lieu précieux. Les coquelicots sont splendides et la paix qui est respirée dans cet environnement est remarquable. Merci de partager vos promenades et tout cela qui vous inspire pour prendre vos photos. Qui Dieu vous bénit et vous continuez à donner de la santé et de l'amitié pour cette famille d'amis de Webshots. Une embrassade. Jesús

  • Kaethi and Heinz...THis is a wonderful nature album. So many things remind me of when I was a child walking to school. I love the shadows in the pond. There are so many varieties of flowers and all so beautiful! I think its wonderful to see all these flowers, plants, greenery and ponds and river on your walks. Oh, I liked the trout too. Great album and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you. love, Barbara

  • Dear Kaethi and Henri, I enjoyed visiting your new album. It reminds me of our spring time, my favorite season. I like the pictures of the wildflowers and landscapes. Thanks for sharing all this beauty with all of us. Thanks also for your very kind words in my Living By Numbers album. I'm glad you like it. Wishing you a wonderful Sunday, Yair.

  • You have captured your pond and all the life very well. It just shows one how much we can see if we only slow down and really look about us. The flowers are beautiful and captured well with your camera. We enjoy looking at your albums. Thank you for sharing the beauty you find in France.

  • Hi Käthi and Heinz! What a gorgeous place to hike and find all kinds of beautiful scenes along the river. Bob would probably want to stop and catch those frogs and have frog legs for a meal and I'd protest, but we both love to hear them calling to one another. Love the flowers along the river also. Hope you're having a good weekend. We're going to see little John on Tuesday; can't wait to see if he's grown. Lots of hugs and love, Sharon
