3.1.2024 – Photos by Viktor Hinterleitner
I’m sure many of you remember Viktor and Andrea from the ‘Knut aera’ when we had our meetings in Berlin. They’ve had lovely visitors in their garden during the Summer and in the Autumn´. I have now a great pleasure of showing some their photos in this magazine, too.
First there were hedgehogs ….
…. and then a raccoon appeared.
Maybe the hedgies were both surprised and scared meeting the bigger visitor …
…. but very soon they realized there was nothing to be afraid of!
It’s amazing how these animals got so well together sharing the food!
The more the merrier
Even a marten sometimes visited the garden ‘restaurant’.
There are city foxes in Berlin. Maybe they had heard of this wonderful garden, too …
Excellent service!
Hey, it looks like I’m not the only restaurant guest here
Simply amazing! No problems sharing the ‘dinner table’!
This beauty came even when there was snow. What a beautiful fur!
Dear Viktor and Andrea! You take such a good care of your four legged visitors. It’s been a pure pleasure to follow them in your photos and videos! Thank you so much for the permission to show some of the photos here, too!
Dear readers! You can see more photos and even videos in Viktor’s FB site.
Dear Viktor, Andrea and Mervi
A beautiful reminder of why we love animals in these troubled times.
Happy New Year from England
Liebe Viktor und Andrea!
Danke für die Bilder von den Besuchern in Eurem Garten.
Hugs

Lieber Andrea, lieber Viktor!
Ihr habt wirklich tolle Besucher. Sie sind nicht nur niedlich. Sie sind auch friedlich. Es sieht bezaubernd aus, wie sie alle zusammenfuttern.
Zu mir kommen Igel, das eine oder andere Hermelin oder Marder und auch einen Fuchs immer wieder als Essengäste. Einen Waschbären habe ich aber noch nicht gesehen.
Danke für die herrlichen Bilder aus Eurem Garten.
Viele Grüße,
Anita
That’s what I call a REAL SCOOP!
And this in three respects:
1) The miracle itself and people that are good enough to care about wild animals such they bring together various species and make them even eat together completely peacefully.
2) Such spectacular photos – by night on top!
Sometimes there were even TWO racoons and two hedgehos and there were even THREE hedgehogs and one raccon to be seen together at the food bowl . . .
3) To meet people HERE again one had seen ‘ages’ ago for the last time and did never expect to see them or their brilliant photos again one day again, and whom one most propably would not recognize when meeting them in the street somewhere . . .
Of cpurse it was also a pleasure to read your accompanying words to the gorgeous shots, dear Mervi. You must have been more than happy for having got this special opportunity to add Andrea and Victor to your co-authors (at least as the high qualified photographers they are or at least Victor is as to my knowledge . . .).
Hi ANDREA!
Hi Victor!
Liebe Andrea und lieber Viktor!
Toll, was sich so in Eurem Garten tummelt: Igel, Waschbären, Marder, Füchse! Und alle vertragen sich – sogar bei einer gemeinsamen Mahlzeit an demselben Teller, wenigstens die Igel und der Waschbär. Ich nehme an, dass das bereit gestellte Futter für die Igel bestimmt war und sich die anderen Tiere die Gelegenheit nicht entgehen ließen?
Ich kann mir vorstellen, dass Ihr Euch freut, etwas für die hungrige heimische Tierwelt tun zu können…
Danke fürs Zeigen!
Viele Grüße

liebe Andrea und lieber Viktor,
Ihr habt wunderbare Gäste in Eurem Garten und sie finden auch immer was zu essen, das ist prima, und schön,wenn sie einander nichts tun. Vielen Dank für die herrlichen Bilder

dear greetings and good wishes

Dear Mervi, dear all, thank you for watching and commenting my latest „zoo photos.“.
Yes indeed, for several years we have many four-legged visitors in our garden. As far as I have counted them there are up to six or seven hedgehogs, four raccoons, three foxe and two martens. It’s a miracle that it is always peaceful and full of harmony. Thank you dear Mervi for publishing my photos. ❤️
I have taken tons of photos and videos, a selection is also to be seen at my instagram account which is public. You are cordially invited to watch them on Instagram.
