Trios in Bad König
We went on a visit to the town of Bad König in the Odenwald and I found quite a few trios.
Profile and full frontal
but two of a kind. And kind of not what you thought when you read the title.

Intrusion or exclusion?
No question for a cat. Fences are at most obstacles to be traversed.
A bit different with dogs.
And – believe it or not – we humans were the ones behind the fence. And the shepherd at the back of this herd kept shouting: “Close the gate, close the gate! They’ll overrun you!”
“The wide world is all about you: you can fence yourselves in, but you cannot forever fence it out.”
– J. R. R. Tolkien

Of sheep
A man in wolf’s clothing form the palace gardens in Schwetzingen.
A wolf doing unwolfish things on a mosaic from Aldborough Roman town in Yorkshire.
A whole castle of wolves (albeit en miniature) in the Obrunn gorge near Höchst im Odenwald.
And all that to respond to a quote about sheep:
“It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favour of vegetarianism while the wolf remains of a different opinion.”
William Ralph Inge, “Patriotism”, in Outspoken Essay (1919)
