Day 10: Pyrenean Desman
I didn’t know about desmans up until a few months ago, they’re delightful little scuba-moles <3

Je reviens à mon projet de présenter la plupart de mes 55000 photos (nouveau compte approximatif. On se rapproche du présent !).
2016. Je passe quelques jours à Pau chez Christine “hors-saison” !
Ici, une virée en Bigorre, à Lourdes : le château-musée.
Entre autres, un aperçu de la faune pyrénéenne : ours (les 2 sur la première !), blaireau, isard . Puis loup et gypaète et enfin l’étrange desman, insectivore aquatique endémique des Pyrénées.
Puis Christine sur le toit, et un abreuvoir.
