 In a world that is spinning waaaay out of its orbit,
I find this 'the best' : https://visdeurbel.nl/en/
The fishdoorbell in Utrecht (The Netherlands)

What is it?

In the heart of the city lies the beautiful Weerdsluis, a manually operated lock. When the lock gates are closed, fish are forced to wait, wasting valuable time and energy – making them easy prey for birds and predatory fish.

To help the fish, an underwater camera is installed at the lock. If fish appear on screen, you can press the doorbell! This alerts the lock keeper, who will open the lock when many fish are waiting.


Most of the time, you see nothing, but this morning I saw some fish and it was the best!

I keep it open on YouTube while I work, for the soothing water noises.


You can thank me later.
