Wandering through the forests and mountains with a geological hammer, I vigilantly observed the life of birds and animals. Here is a small bird, remez, weaving a nest... A cunning fox drives a badger out of his own hole... The snake and the viper are fighting in single combat... In his short sketches from nature, F. K.
