Congratulations, Susette! You are the only one to get it right this week, as answer d) is the correct one. It was just Mrs. Peel that came running, so no need to turn back or wait. Isfrid simply continued to amble towards me. ———— Glückwunsch,...

In June I had to stock up on new potted plants as some old favourites did not make it through the winter. I do love hibiscus (hibiscus rosa-sinensis) so much but I have to face facts. They will not survive a winter in the shed. (I would have bet that the bougainvillea...

This spring and summer I have really neglected the garden. So many flowers that enjoyed us are already gone – good that I took pictures! The mild winter, the following heat and all that rain had a strange effect on the different plants. While for the first time...

See? Didn’t I tell you it was difficult to deduce the appearance of the grown bird from the youngster? Sonia, even if it is not black at all, the image showed a young blackbird (Turdus merula), so Karl-Theodor is correct! You do not expect a wild animal to trust...

Would the German football team have won their match against France yesterday if they had Isfrid and Mira in their midst? Fact is, that it is very difficult to separate the two from the ball and their timing is always perfect, not to mention the four feet! Their...

Congrats to Susette who got it right! Our two gargoyles see Mrs. Peel (answer c) approaching – closely followed by Joschi. So Karl-Theodor was nearly right, too. PS: To all our American friends – We hope you had a wonderful July 4th and a great holiday...

Sometimes the most obvious solution is the right one – meaning d) our mobster Islay came running, claimed the bench for himself and Isfrid cautiously retreated. So congrats, Sabine! You nailed it! (Susette, maybe you did, too, and I just misinterpreted your...

My goodness! I cannot fool you any longer, can I? Well done, Susette, Karl-Theodor, Sonia, Micki and Ruth! The correct answer is b). Mira loves to “hunt” in the light shaft, if only for bugs, while the others keenly observe from above. Though not everybody goes to...

The big light shaft that separates the house from the terrace is always of interest to the cats. They love to look down and check whether there is anything going on. To go into or out of the house, all the other cats either jump over the grids or use the area where...
