A list of animal encounters
Once when I was outside with the dogs, we went to a nearby forest, and a frog jumped in front of me. It took me a while to grasp what it was before I screamed and it hopped away.
I fed a squirrel in a nearby park, and it touched my hand.
Once a barnacle goose flew over my head and touched my head with its leg. This happened in Korkeasaari.
A little bird came hopping up to my feet today in the Kaisaniemi Botanic Garden.
A big pack of foxes near my home.
Near my home a deer walked right past me.
We saw a seagull parent and its chicks in their nest today.
BONUS:
I bumped into a tree when I was in primary school.
We played with sticks when we were small.
