Greetings from Switzerland II


A rainy afternoon in Switzerland is an excellent time to get up to date with the happenings over here and on the 'Spill-mothership over at the Guardiam, lots of interesting stuff, definitely going to check iLIKETRAINS.....

The animal in the picture is a quite young alpine ibex (Steinbock, as it is called over here)that I met yesterday, it was enjoying a pleasant promenade with mom, dad, and three other brothers and sisters, which resulted in a lot more pictures, as they are not that afraid of people, knowing that they are the superior climbers, and probably knowing that they are living in a preservation zone, where they are not hunted by man.....

We partly named Steenbeck Steenbeck because she's very Steinbock-like in build and appearance. Funny to see it here...
