Period: 1650-1700;
Geographic: Belgium; Brussels
Description: A bird catcher stretched his nets early in the morning, to make some considerable catch. Nevertheless, he had already spent almost the whole day without being present, only small birds of which made little noise. But when he saw that the sun was going down, without having taken anything yet, he drew a Wren which was all his hunt.
