Swans sit in a boat during the annual collection of Hamburg's famous 'Alster Swans' in Hamburg, Germany. Every year the swans are collected from waterways around the northern German city of Hamburg and taken to winter quarters where they are fed and cared for until the spring.

I took care of this baby hare a night in August, it had been attacked by a cat and I saved him. The next morning I took him to the vet and everything turned out well! By now he’s out jumping in the forest again. He is the most beautiful creature in the world, I still miss him.'

High Seas, Phase 1 starts today at 5PM. Pass it to the others. She'll never know.



I started wondering what otters sound like. Someone's probably posted a video of them getting vocal but if so I've missed it, so I googled it, and the video had links to all these other otter vids at the end, and I had to click on the link of the baby otter playing with its stuffed walrus toy:



And the excited otter pile. Turns out they squeak:

@MontereyJack,
High Seas, You're right. I just skip over stuff marked "confidential." There's a meshugina born every minute, and the person who took that picture is one of them. Shocked

So the conspiracy I don't know anything about continues. MJ finds a deadly baby otter video under the false pretense of finding out how otters sound. According to the first video (the deadly one), they sound like a flute.

I haven’t been able to clean out the fountain because of the dozens of tadpoles living in it. Some are just getting big enough to leave their home.

@jcboy,
dj, What's that bunny doing? Be careful bunny. Love that smart, sharp otter face.

Hingie, Is that secretary boid wearing mascara? Great textural pic, kid. What's a lion doing in the snow? Great face. Love dem blue eyes. The cock-of-the-rocks are wonderful in a bizarre sort of way. (Are you suggesting that Dr. Seuss predates God? Who knew?)

JC, Looks like that tadpole has a way to go before he hops away. Thanks for the pic. Your backyard is a wonderland of wildlife.
