THE EBRE DELTA



Visiting the very special places in Catalonia, this time turn is for Ebro Delta – beautiful and magic place just before the Catalonia's borderline with Spain.
The picture above reveals that nature has done in last 4000 years. The river Ebro bringing the sand towards the see has made wetland are approx. 320 square kilometres. 






The walk near the river brings me back in my memories to Latvia and Norway where are plenty of rivers and life around them.



Beautiful wetlands where are plenty of birds having a break of a long flying from Norther countries to Africa to overwinter.



Rice plantations just getting prepared for planting the rise. This is a perfect place for rice agriculture. Nearby  is the huge factory to get it overworked.
