Field Notes

Description:

These wild birds were very used to humans and let me get close to them to take this pictures with my phone.

Habitat:

The photo was taken in the city of Hiedelberg. The birds seemed to have no problem walking over the frozen Nekar.

Notes:

Most of them we're marked in the right foot
