In the present post, dear Steemians, let me take you to the beautiful region of Camargue.
The Camargue is a natural region located south of Arles, France, between the Mediterranean Sea and the two arms of the Rhône River delta. The eastern arm is called the Grand Rhône (big Rhône) the western one is the Petit Rhône (small Rhône).
With an area of over 930 km2 (360 sq mi), the Camargue is western Europe's largest river delta. It is a vast plain comprising large brine lagoons or ponds, cut off from the sea by sandbars and encircled by reed-covered marshes. Approximately a third of the Camargue is either lakes or marshland. The central area around the shoreline of the Étang de Vaccarès has been protected as a regional park since 1927, in recognition of its great importance as a haven for wild birds.
Most of the photos were taken in and in the marshlands around the beautiful City of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. The Map of Camargue is copied from Wikipedia
In diesem Post will ich Euch, liebe Steemians in die wunderschöne Region Camargue entführen.
Camargue ist eine natürliche Region, welche südlich von Arles, Frankreich, zwischen dem Mittelmeer und den beiden Ausläufern des Flusses Rhône im Rhône-Delta liegt. Der östliche Arm heisst "Grand Rhône" (grosser Rhône), der westliche "Petit Rhône" (kleiner Rhône).
Mit einer Fläche von über 930 Quadratkilometern ist die Camargue Europas größtes Fluss-Delta. Es ist eine riesige Ebene mit vielen großen Salzwasser Lagunen oder Weihern, vom Meer getrennt durch Sandbänke und versehen mit schilfbewachsenen Sümpfen. Zirka ein Drittel der Camargue besteht entweder aus Seen oder Sumpfland. Der zentrale Teil um den Weiher Étang de Vaccarès ist seit 1927 als regionaler Naturpark geschützt, in der Erkenntnis, dass es sich hier um den Lebensraum vieler wildlebender Vogelarten handelt.
Die meisten Bilder habe ich im Juni 2016 in und in den Sumpfgebieten um die wunderschöne Stadt Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, gemacht. Den Lageplan der Camargue habe ich aus Wikipedia.

This photo is not taken by me... :) Dieses Foto habe ich nicht selbst gemacht... :)

Typical horses of Camargue... - they were the last wild horses in Europe...
Typische Pferde der Camargue... - sie waren die letzten Wildpferde Europas...
