@movq Oh cute! That drake wasn't scared, was he? Yes, please take your good cam next time. :-)
Was that a highway that you were walking next to? The last one shows a really cool scenery. I dig that.
@lyse The ducks aren’t too scared of humans. Great story from the first days of Covid in 2020: There were so few humans out and about that the wildlife began to reclaim its place. Those ducks in particular waddled around near the shops – and one of them even went *into* the super market. 😃 Never seen that before or since.
That path leads to a highway, yeah. Or rather under a highway. 😅 The photo with the graffiti shows a short tunnel, the highway is on top of it. It’s usually annoyingly loud, so I don’t go there often.
Found some more older photos of the general area of the last shot: https://movq.de/v/885fb9c57b/

@movq Oh wow, how cool is that?! :-) Ducks over here are quite shy, unfortunately. In Ludwigsburg on the other hand they are very habituated to humans. I was very surprised to see that when visiting a mate. There were a bunch of them laying on the stairs and I tried to keep my distance to not scare them off. Didn't dare to get closer than maybe five meters or so and was super happy that they stayed. That has always been impossible over here. After we proceeded, some tourists came by and stood a meter next to them or so. That was crazy for me to see. :-)
Yeah, walking next to a highway is torture. I try to avoid it as much as possible.
Nice! The third photo looks like a Kneipp basin. What's that round tunnel? I love those moss-covered rocks, they just look so beautiful.
@lyse It’s probably better for them if they’re shy. 😅 But yeah, if they’re used to humans, they won’t run away so easily. At least the ducks won’t – the rails/moorhens do. 🤔
Ahh, I remember those Asperg shots. 😅👍
That whole area with the tunnels and basins is *probably* some sort of “retention basin” (Regenrückhaltebecken), with several levels to reduce the flow. There’s almost never a lot of water in there, though. Not sure if this structure just isn’t used anymore or if it’s too dry. There’s also this “pole”, it’s a bit hard to see, though:

Looks like they’re trying to measure the water height (Pegelstand)? The pole is super high and I doubt that any rainfall will ever reach the top of it. 🤔

@movq Definitely better for them, yeah. :-)
Ah, interesting. Ui, that can hold some water. Certainly looks like a water level gauge to me. Maybe a precaution for a hundred-year flood or something like that. Or is there a dam nearby? Could be a facility to reduce damage in case it breaks.
Well, I missed the time window. Time flies, they’re all grown up now. 😬
