*"I put one nut on the bench and the squirrel quickly came for it and grabbed it with her paws.*

*"Then the squirrel climbed the tree and began to crack the shell of the nut, and then I watched her eat it. It's nice to be able to feed her."*

>Awwww, what a lil cutie... Nothing more rewarding than having a lil creature depend on you for some sustenance!

</div>

*"As I am observing them as they weld, the sparks from dowel seems to be a good call for a long-exposure photography. So I setup my tripod to stabilize the camera position, with the proper camera settings for long-exposure then clicked the camera shutter and so these photos were made."*

>Flying sparks in low light make good long exposure shots! Don't you agree?

</div>

*"This rocky shore at the eastern side of the lake is the perfect place to photograph sunset.*

*"The rocks in the foreground, the little island in the middle of the Walchensee and the Simetsberg mountain in the background with the Wetterstein mountains peeking out behind it provide all the subject matter necessary for an enjoyable evening of photography."*

>All you need is a scenic location and patience.... wait... wait...

</div>

*"I never imagined that frogs could live in banana stems. I thought it must be dangerous for them, because banana stems could be cut at any moment with a machete, and it might hit them by accident. But what can I do, I see they are happy to live there."*

>Check out the flora and fauna with @keuudeip as he takes us on a discovery trip, and finds this toad that lives in a banana stem!
