In winter clocks tick slowly, reminding the heart why it doesn't like negotiations.
Winter is the architect of love.

Actually I liked the charming and quite smooth blending from fall to spring here in Berlin as I can forgo winter quite well, but after it turned cold and uncomfortable in the last time anyway it was high time for snow! The NYE fireworks this year especially got on my nerves, since I don't get anything out of the preference of some people for mostly rather machistic 'war games', generally, and in particular in the last time. In contrast I love the silence and calmness affiliated with snow. It's so delightfully quiet, even the cars on the street are driving at walking pace at last hehe... Simply enchanting!

Schon gewusst?
Schon gewusst?
* Capreolus capreolus (was für ein charmanter Name!) **Cervus elaphus
sondern eine eigene Hirschart mit Weibchen (Ricke) und Männchen (Rehbock)
... und ich habe Stunden gebraucht, um dieses 'Mistvieh' links unten zu bestimmen...
Ich glaube, es ist ein Weißwedelhirsch, quasi der Vater von Bambi! (^.^)
Denn weil es in Nordamerika keine Rehe gibt (!), hat Disney das Rehkitz aus der Romanvorlage in der Verfilmung durch ein Kalb (so heißen die Jungen der Weißwedelhirsche; bei STYLE! IT! TAKES! lernen wir nie aus! ♥) der regionalen Hirschart ersetzt...
Philology & Natural History (Department of Gender):
Did you know?
In German there is some kind of linguistic, zoological & gender confusion about various types of deer, suggesting a female roe deer (Capreolus capreolus, what a charming name!) is the 'wife' of the male red deer (Cervus elaphus)...*lol*. On the other hand, Disney changed the young roe deer of the Bambi novel into a white-tailed deer in the movie as roe deer are existing in Europe, but not in North America (we never stop learning at STYLE! IT! TAKES! ♥).
... and it took me hours to identify this 'damned' deer left below as a white-tailed deer, not indigenous in Europe...

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep...

Zwei Panda-Bären (Großer Panda, Riesenpanda, Bambusbär) im Schnee
Es gibt nur noch 1.864 frei in China lebende (2015) plus 49 außerhalb Chinas in Zoos lebende Exemplare (2014)! Der letzte Bambusbär in einem europäischen Zoo, "Bao Bao", starb 2012 in Berlin. Er wurde 34 Jahre alt, ein recht stattliches Alter.
