Boar Sighting!

For my loyal readers (that's just me), I had to alert y'all. I had another boar sighting. This time just a mother and baby, in the middle of the day, crossing the street.

AT A GREEN LIGHT!

They waited. Even the animals follow the rules here.

I met a very nice German man at the open-air market on Wednesday. He told me the best thing about living in the Netherlands was how "open" everyone was here with the "rules"!

I almost started laughing. Then I remembered your stories . . .

Figures they have rule-abiding wild boars living in the city.

He must have been from the north!
It is crazy here. We've never seen any road-kill, either. Even in the spring when the young birds/squirrels etc. are learning. We just figured 'no jaywalking' was the first thing they learned. :-)

Ha ha! I've told quite a few people about the wild boars in Berlin. This will make a great addition to the story.

The boar just dug up 3 or 4 gardens on our street. Ate up all the bulbs and vegetables. They dug up patio stones and made quite a ruckus. Luckily, our gate was closed and they didn't try and squeeze under the fence. I wonder if you're allowed to hunt them on your own property. Mmmmmm. Fresh boar on a spit.:-)
