I like hares.

Hares have long ears.

I feed my hares with grass.

The hunter shoots stags and hares.

The plague came from the swamp.

Lots of herons live in the marsh.

Oh look! Mermaid come out of swamp. Oh boy!

Yes, it is swamp. We live in the swamp in a tent, but I must tell you, every day is exhilarating.

That, of course, is the Slavic swamp mermaid.

He lives alone in a little cottage in the swamp.

The soft patch may be closer to a quagmire.

In the longer term, the Ramsar listed swamp itself may be threatened.

Or the bog turtle, needing wet meadows and insects and sunny places.

Can the papyrus grow up without mire? Can the rushes grow without water?

Can the rush grow up without mire? can the flag grow without water?

The Budweiser Frogs appear in the swamp, chanting their names, Bud... Weis...

He lies under the lotus trees, in the covert of the reed, and the marsh.

He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.

Maybe it was swamp gas, but I know what I saw.

The word stagnation suggests a swamp, implying a breeding ground for virulent dangers.

Telmatosaurus (meaning marsh lizard ) is a genus of basal hadrosaurid dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous.

So this created a reservoir 600 kilometers long, one of the largest reservoirs ever created.

And these mosses, generated by decomposing, are like peat moss in your garden.

And those are the peat swamp forests on 20 meters of peat, the largest accumulation of organic material in the world.

This was also the year of the mud, with the site suffering severe rainfalls which turned the entire site into a muddy bog.

The swamp holds one other bird found nowhere else, the Zapata wren, and also gives its name to the Zapata sparrow.

My personal experience is that in my constituency where field sports are freely practiced, we now have more hares, more pheasants, more snipe, just to mention but a few, than we had fifty years ago.

And what was also one of the bigger projects around that was moving 13 full size cities up out of the reservoir, and flattening all the buildings so they could make way for the ships.

Frederick Henry diverted the two main streams feeding the swamps (the Dommel and the Aa) around the city by means of a double forty kilometre dike, in the form of a giant square, completely enclosing the fortress.

But it's a hard hurdle because we got into this legal quicksand because we woke up in the 1960s to all these really bad values racism, gender discrimination, pollution they were bad values. And we wanted to create a legal system where no one could have bad values anymore.

400 years after Hudson found New York harbor, Eric Sanderson shares how he made a 3D map of Mannahatta's fascinating pre city ecology of hills, rivers, wildlife accurate down to the block when Times Square was a wetland and you couldn't get delivery.

To the northwest, and around Mount Ruapehu, between an altitude of 1200 and 1500 m, tussock shrubland and tussock grass covers large areas (around 150 km2), consisting mainly of New Zealand red tussock grass ( Chionochloa rubra ), inaka, curled leaved neinei ( Dracophyllum recurvum ), wire rush ( Empodisma minus ), and bog rush ( Schoenus pauciflorus ), as well as heather and grasses like hard tussock ( Festuca novaezelandiae ) and bluegrass ( Poa colensoi ).
