Lake Bled from above
Lake Bled · 31 August 2023

The classic view, from the steep little hill on the western shore. Twenty minutes almost straight up through the trees, and most people going up are carrying a tripod.
From here the shape of the place is obvious: a glacial basin with the town along one side, the castle on its crag, and the island sitting almost exactly where a photograph would want it. The Julian Alps close the valley behind.
Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
