Interesting Simone, you have seen a bagder :)

Hi Andreas,
yes, indeed. I had a tame badger in my hayshed for two winters. I think it must have been really old, because it had no fear. I could have petted it, if I wanted.  Unfortunately I never took a photo. Now there's a young one, but I only saw it once in the early morning. The Wolf crossed the neighbor's field in bright daylight!

Sounds very interesting. I know the wolf is also back in the forests around Dresden.

I saw reindeers in Lapland and a wolf in southern Finland (luckily I was in a car!)

oops, I think that snow hare is a rabbit with winter fur

I think you have seen a snow hare indeed. They ocurr in your country and they are the best match for a rabbit with white fur.

After my first time in Egypt i prefer to collect also coral and other saltwater fishes. It is hard to find figurines of all the species that i have seen but here are a few.

Most of these weren't in my backyard, but near or on the way to relatives' houses.
