It's a nice Saturday evening, I'm drinking coffee, thinking of a movie to watch. Can't decide between "Big Fish", which I haven't seen and "Sherloch Holmes", which I have.

Last summer we saw these impressive animals in the wild.

Hi there,
In reference to your hobbies, I recently taught myself to knit and just finished my first scarf :) Yay!
This postcard shows two elk fighting either a female which is calles a "cow" or just turf dominance: or being a male! LOL! They are beautiful creatures! Have seen many, even babies :).
My mom's favorite animal was a sheep too! But I couldn't find one for you :(
Hope you have a great day!
Happy travels Breanne

Deze mooie kaart komt uit Amerika.
This beautiful card comes from the USA.

Hello Tineke
Luckely postcard companies created a card with the animals of the state where I live. Suburban Philadelphia (my home) has a problem with deer. Their population increased so much that they look for food in people's yards. A lot of accidents happen even on highways and busy streets. I had a few "near miss" accidents myself.
Wishing you  a pleasant autumn, Nina

Hello Tineke!
Found this card for you :). I think it's alright because the pictures shows a bit of our flora & founa. And there are cows in one of the pictures. I'm a huge cow-fan myself :)
