I already heard her singing while she was out there, somewhere, far away. I couldn't find who or what it was. But then, out of the blue, this voluptuous mermaid came out of her habitat and gently strolled towards me, still singing. In an attempt to seduce me, I suppose.
But hey, who or what could ever keep me from doing my thing - KAP - in such a great environment? Nobody, nothing, no chance. I just kept going.
And after a few minutes she returned. Returned to the shallow sea, lamenting.

The Wormer- en Jisperveld is a nature area, covering 18 km² (of which 0.7 km² are a protected area), situated between the towns De Rijp, Purmerend en Wormerveer. The area consists mainly of marshland, grassland and open water.
The Wormer- en Jisperveld contains national important populations of nesting birds as the Great Bittern, Ruff, Godwit, Gadwall and Shoveler. The area is also important for foraging birds as for instance the Spoonbill and the various species of Snipes and Harriers. Among the wintering birds are significant amounts of Wigeons and geese.
It is also one of the last havens for the unique and rare Dutch subspecies of the Tundra Vole (Microtus oeconomus arenicola).
The water and soil of the Wormer- en Jisperveld is brackish. Plants as the Marsh Fern, Marshmallow, Common Scurvygrass and Sundew can commonly be found.

De Jispersluis vormde vele eeuwen de belangrijkste verbinding tussen het dorp Jisp en belangrijke handelscentra in het Noorderkwartier zoals De Rijp en Graft. De sluis ligt nu in de Kanaaldijk langs de Beemsterringvaart. Via de Jispersluissloot kan men naar de Noordergangssloot. Vandaar lopen diverse sloten naar het dorp Jisp en naar 't Zwet en De Poel met de Poelsluis.
