On Whit Monday we went to Hahnbach to see the water buffalo. They are new here to help with landscape maintenance.
Well, we probably didn't feel like doing a photo shoot 😂. At least we saw footprints and other remains. 🦬🙂

UPDATE:
On the 3rd day they all showed up👍There will be offspring in late summer ☺️
