two pradovits on dry grass
There are numerous places in the north-west of Vienna between the vineyards, between forests and on hills with special flora and fauna. Finally I found another of these places on my forays through the Weinviertel. The grass is rather dry there, trees don't grow big, there are shrubs now and then. Here you will find animals and plants that are otherwise found only 70 miles to the southeast in Burgenland. Special orchids for example. Mantids, rare grasses, the wonderful pasque flower, dwarf iris. I wanted to show this wonderful arid landscape to my newly arrived Pradovits. They had had to spend the past 10 years in a Tyrolean cellar. Rocks appear here and there from the meadow again and again, indications of a long dry sea at this point.
