20th of July 2018 a special meeting

Hello all, the 20th of July, Friday.
We are quite busy and so this morning I was ready for a little bit of birdwatching and  so I did...my "birding dog Spot " was with me. I took it slow, a lot of birds... and clouds came in, so I was prepared to get wet, but then the man on a horse came by and he told me that it was not going to rain.
And he was right.
When I meet him, that happens quite often, he always tells me that there are a lot of birds...red...blue and green.😀 He is by the way 75 years old and live with his horse and lovely dog in the middle of nowhere.
After a half an hour, there was another man that I never did see before. He did ask me if I was hunting, if so..this was a wrong place to hunt, I have to go much deeper in the forest he said.
I did say that I was hunting but in another way. I did not eat the birds...but I spot them and then I am happy.
He looked at me with no opinion in his face...maybe in his mind...
Oh you are watching them...yes...  I do.
I did ask him if he did some shopping and now  going home?
Yes, he said, I live far away, have to walk still 11 hours.
I did ask him, what his age was... almost 91 years he said.
Shall I take a picture...I asked... yes please.... with my dog? ...yes please...my dog did like the man.


And I showed him the picture, it was good  and he said, I have to go, hasta luego!
And there he went.... almost 91 years old....


And so that was my morning...oh ... birds... yes they were there too.. see down below  my list:
