She was trapped inside the house. I offered her a helping hand and escorted her outside but she remained on my finger long enough for me to photograph her.
I was just passing by, walking along in the village of Oberndorf in Lower Bavaria (Niederbayern). We were complete strangers. But I broke the ice by offering the horses a couple of juicy plums from a tree beyond the electric fence. From that moment on we were the best of friends. I posted one image of these two back in 2018, but I like this one too. [FUJI8598_lr_2000]

Here is a new third image from the incredible storm I captured with a group of friendly pelicans back in January 2021.

Want this on your wall?
The only way to get a clean shot was to crawl part way under the gate (the only part of the fence not electrified), which resulted in the somewhat unusual POV. There was no threat - their body language says it all.
Thistles are generally unwelcome guests in gardens, but this one was allowed to show off its colour in Bodnant Garden, Wales. It seems it is garden-friendly.

Many thanks to everyone for your views, faves and supportive comments. These are always very much appreciated.
It is very friendly but not necessary to thank for my comments.
These impressing monkeys have an amazing mimikry. Its a subspecies of baboons wich live in the "Tierpark Berlin". Only one day with good weather when we were in Berlin for a long weekend - so we choosed to try to make some sunshine photos away from the many tourists in the inner city. This was a good idea.. :-D

The snowdrops have been blooming for about a month now, and still are. I thought I'd post this one, because I met one of my neighbours while shooting these. I've mentioned before that I photograph flowers in neighbours' yards. So I was shooting these, and the woman who lived in the house came out to see what I was doing. She was very friendly and asked about my photography, and was so happy that her flowers made me happy too. We introduced ourselves and I've made a new friend :)
When your subject takes a couple steps forward and decides to fold her arms, you know she trusts you. Shortly after she dozed off. Wish every Bobcat would do this. Lol!

Re uploaded with the correct white balance as promised.
When exiting the water the surfer clocked me (Steven ) lol and looked straight into my lens and waved and smiled which made my day....a bit of friendliness goes a very long way....
I didn't have a long lens with me so used the longest I had at the time which happened to be a Sigma 105mm Macro Lens but it did the job...

Ps Flickr is exceptionally slow and I keep getting bad panda page...I went on the discussions and left a comment as apparently it is becoming an issue yet again.
If you want to make friends with an Icelandic ..... never call an Icelandic horse a pony .... there isn't even that word in Icelandic.
Icelandic horses look extremely charming and, compared to other horses, rather childishly, in fact they are realy strong, they can survive the harshest winters, the biggest hurricanes and the craziest snowstorms without any effort. In addition, they are so incredibly friendly and gentle that it is impossible not to adore them.
Seen along the trail in the DeVoto Memorial Cedar Grove in the Clearwater National Forest, along highway 12 in northeastern Idaho. The grove is named for Bernard DeVoto, a conservationist and historian of the American west.
Houten is a very bike friendly town. Although The Netherlands is bike friendly but Houten is more planned around the use of bikes.
It won also a award for bike friendliness in 2018
Only one of all the Red-backed Shrikes I saw at the Cristei Meadow was brave and friendly enough to approach me.
This friendly Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) was rescued (I believe from a fur farm) and is now housed at the BC Wildlife Park in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada.
She shares her enclosure with another Red Fox, Raven, who has a unique black and white marble colouring (will upload photos of her later on).
