Last evening there was such a beautiful sunset. 😍 The video shows a time-lapse of the last 5 minutes. 🤗

During my nocturnal sloth walk, a cold fog danced across the Bommersheim fields. The moths in my fur started knitting little gloves. It doesn't make much difference whether I hibernate or not. But I decided to shoot some photos first.

I'm lucky to live in the historically interesting area around the Roman Limes. There are traces of the Romans everywhere. Especially in Frankfurt Northwest, where once was the capital of the Civitas Taunensium, the town of Nida. In the past, this area was even referred to as German Pompeji, because there are so many well-preserved remains here. Sadly, the city doesn't do enough to present the remains to public. For example, these quite important Roman pottery kilns stand inconspicuously in a small house in a totally overgrown corner. I think that's not ok.

Crickets bring good luck! 🍀😍
Loki was very happy! 💖😋
That was a "great green bush cricket" (Tettigonia viridissima). It's one of the largest grasshopper species in Europe. They're very common. In late summer, they wander 👣 from the herbaceous layer 🌾 into the shrub and tree layers 🌳. That's why you will find them more often at home.🏡
The video was shot in late September.🎥

My painting in detail. At some point, I'm sure to make bigger sloth steps again. By the way, I haven't painted many paintings in my life. I never liked it very much. In school I often got approval, rather than painting what the teacher says, to draw what I want. Later attempts I never found satisfying. Good that I've tried again. It's an exercise picture, I took the canvas with the least quality for it. Now I paint for over 2 years on it.

Insects have a different nervous system than vertebrates like us. 🎉🎊 Not everything is controlled by the brain. 🙃🌳 The nerve cords are similar to a rope ladder. ☝🐝 In each body segment are two interconnected ganglia. ✌🐜 In the head several ganglia are fused together and form the brain. 👈🤓 The brain isn't really needed for survival, because the vital functions 💕 take place in other body segments. 💪😃 However, the fly can take without head no liquid or food. 💀🌈

Sloth life! ✌🙃☉
In this place you can meet the mega sloth quite often. You can even hug it without it piercing its claws into your flesh. It's friendly but has some moths in the fur.
