Goodmorning lovelies, and goodmorning to my long-time-no-see Haiku friends! How are y’all doing? Remember me?
It’s been over a year since I submitted a haiku to Haiku my Heart – the group that I used to join every Friday. A lot happened in the meantime. The best thing? Four months ago my beloved and I moved to a lovely apartment in the centre of Middelburg (Zeeland – The Netherlands.) I still wake up with a smile every day! (You can see and read about the beautiful place I live now in this blogpost A tourist walk.
One of the attractive things that comes with living here is the many birds that surrounds us: there are high squealing swifts in the air (I counted 15 the other day,) pigeons and seagulls, blackbirds ‘singing in the dead of night’, a woodpecker in the big oak and jackdaws… a lot of jackdaws.
I wrote a haiku about those jackdaws and once again, I join the tribe that Rececca brings together on her blog every Friday:
| Gesuis van vleugels bijeenkomst op de daken het kauwencongres |
high whirring of wings a meeting on the rooftops Jackdaws Congress |
Now that we settled in this new apartment (and my atelier is up and runnin’) I hope to write haiku more and join in the Haiku-group more often from now on. Thanks for your visit, have a nice weekend!
So glad you could join us again, Marit, you and the jackdaws! 🙂
Wonderful to see you here Marit. Loved your blog post, the photographs, and the Jackdaws Congress.
I can’t think of a better meeting place for jackdaws than on a rooftop. The sound carries far and wide from that height! 🙂
Delightful photo and wonderfully created haiku about the jack daws!
Happy Day to You,

I’m joining today after a six month hiatus, Marit. So happy for you about your new abode.
Happy to see you again, and the jackdaws too. We always seem to return to Rebecca, dont we, after a long absence.
Welcome back!
Oh it is such a treat to find you here Marit! I was just thinking of you the other day as I was perusing some art-blog spots and saw that you had been interviewed on one! I am so happy for you and your beloved that you are loving where you are living. My love to you both and the birds that fill your air! XO
Ein super Haiku mit einem perfekt dazu passendem Foto !

Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland
