This stone is dedicated to the little bittern:
Spread the word and move the stone!
This is a bird species that belongs to the herons, but with only 31 to 36 cm it is the smallest species.
He lives very hidden. He climbs through the reeds. And also hides there, at the slightest suspicion of danger. So it is rare that you will see one.
At most you will hear him during the courtship. The sound he makes then looks like the barking of a big dog.
The little bittern is critically endangered in The Netherlands and Belgium. Via this stone I want to give this beautiful bird extra attention.”
This stone started travelling on 2019-05-04.
Besides the travelling stones, there are also “resting stones” with stories, placed on the trail. Together all these stones form the international art routes.
Click here for more info on the routes.
Did you take the travelling stone? And do you want to leave it on a new location, so it can continue it’s journey? Click here.
This art project wants to pleasantly surprise hikers through miniature art. A second goal is to initiate a new form of communication and awareness,through art and social media. The participant and I are looking forward for your story or response on this stone! (possibly with photo)
The next art project, with a route of resting and travelling stones, starts in 2019 of 2020.
