Bird with tall legs at the Sambre

I do not know exactly what's the name of this bird in english (in french it is a héron), we saw at the edge of the Sambre two weeks ago, but it is very seldom to see such a bird here. Click on the picture to see it bigger and see good the bird.

252. Crèmerie or Milk shop on wheels.

In Hachette a little village which is on the South-East Side of the forest as shown below, you can see a railway bareer passage with the old barreer-guard house (there lives a man who had to pull the barreers up and down, but now it is all automatic) and before it, I had the chance to see this car of a milk shop on wheels. With its funny drawing of a cow. The dark traces on the truck the shadow of a sapin.

I have forgotten to say the whole forest in on the territory of the village of Locquignol, which although a small village in the middle of the forest, is the largest village or town of the department Nord for its width and length of territory.

In the middle of the town of Pont-sur-Sambre stays an information sign-board about Avesnois with a map. It is in every town or village of the Parc Naturel Régional or regional nature parc.
