They're just absolutely awesome. There's some living a few villages over from my hometown in a renaturalized bog. And they look so adorable!

Was really surprised by this one. I've been to Scotland twice now and only ever saw one highland cow there, but now I've stumbled over one no more than 2h from home, living the dream on an alpine meadow

    Storytime,

    On my very first time flying I was 18, flew alone from Europe to SE Asia and sat at the airport with hours to spare to make sure I really didn't miss my flight.

    Police walk up, one stays away with a dog, the other comes to me. They ask whether I want to participate in their end of shift routine. The dog is super friendly and wagging, the police officers are super chill. They explain that their dog gets to find one positive package a day at least, otherwise he'll be sad. They ask whether they can stuff it in my bag. I'm a bit hesitant but this was still in my home country, not anywhere near a protest, so usually police are very professional.

    They hid their package in my backpack. The dog had a blast finding it and got totally excited. I git to participate in the good boy routine of the day 🙂

    Well.. I got a laser, but first don't know what foam that is and wanted to use what I got instead of buying sth And second would have taken so much time to design the exact shapes.. The method put tool on foam, cut around with knife was just a lot faster.

    We got to see some jaegers in the Scottish Hebrides last year. They fly as nimble as a swallow but are larger than a gull. Very impressive. (they lived next to a gull breeding spot, no surprise 🤣)

    Was out on a bike trip in the mountains yesterday to the Eibsee. It's one of the most Instagram overhyped locations you can find in Bavaria, but having been there I also get it. It's just really that beautiful. Was the perfect time, bc next to the car park the path was still snowed in, which kept a lot of people from walking around the lake I think. So far less tourists than usually. And the mountains are still snow covered, which for me is the second most beautiful state after fall colors :)
