in the evening the dinosaurs come to the water hole to drink

Hvítserkur is a 15 meter high basalt rock off the east coast of the Vatnsnes peninsula in northwest Iceland. It stands close to the shore in the Húnafjord and is a nesting place for numerous species of birds (including kittiwakes and fulmars), whose white excrement also gives it its name, which translates to "white coat".

In the old Icelandic sagas and myths, the rock is a petrified troll. But you can also see a drinking dinosaur or a drinking rhinoceros in his form.
