Ralph, danke, ich werde gleich in KWM nachschauen!

@Monika aus Berlin , danke für deinen lieben Kommentar.
Und deine Fotos in der WS sind unglaublich wundervoll und anrührend ! Danke!

Und wieder ist Knuts Monatsgeburtstag, nämlich ein 5. ...

Für alle, die sich noch immer gern und mit Wehmut an die "Familie Knut" erinnern:



Es war einmal ... / Once upon a time ...

@Doro

Liebe Doro,

traurig aber wunderschön. Danke.

Liebe Doro
Thank you as well

I recently was able to rescue this picture from an old phone that I had with me
during my last meeting with Knut in December 2010.

He had been gradually pulling back to his safe shore of the big enclosure. Led, I think, by Tosca, the Ladies decided to see what was so interesting on Knut's shore. All three went down to his level but then realised they could go neither forwards nor backwards. It reminded me of the three big bears in the Lars the Little Polar Bear stories.

The photograph is very small but it shows clearly that Knut had a very long body and would have grown to be as big as his father, Lars. His instinct to avoid conflict with the Ladies was basic Polar Bear survival. They of course were simply curious.

Kati as usual brings up the rear. She was always aware that Tosca was the Leader of the Bears.

I will try to download another photo I took before Knut left his old enclosure which I took at sunset when all you could see were his head and ears from the back.

Danke für das schöne Foto, lieber Ralph. Solche Situationen konnte ich auch beobachten und war froh, wenn die Damen wieder zurück marschierten.

This is my own special picture of Knut that I took late one evening in 2009. It was taken on a very basic phone just as the sun was setting. Everything was quiet and I was on my own with him.

Dear Ralph,

You must have been feeling on top of the world, all alone with the bear ... What a lovely picture this is. Thank you for sharing.

I made this for you by using an image sharpener (hope you like it - even though nothing compares with an original of course):

Lieber Ralph, egal welche Kamera oder ob verwackelt oder nicht. Mir sind alle Knutfotos lieb, denn sie sind mit sehr positiven Erinnerungen verbunden.

Wenn Water recht hat, hat sie recht.
Schönes Bildchen.

Liebe Doro Monika Water
Danke fuer die freundlichen Worte und Doros Kollage.
Ich habe dieses erste Handy gekauft und bin sehr gluecklich es immer noch zu haben.
Meistens war ich zufrieden keine Bilder zu nehmen. Einfach weil soviele Profis wie euch fuer mich Bilder genommen haben konnte ich die Momente mit Knut behalten.
Knut Forever in our Hearts

Sommer Gruss an Allen die Knut an einem warmen sonnigen Tag erlebt haben.
Ich vermisse Knut jeden Tag und bewahre ihn fuer immer.

Sommergrüße zurück, lieber Ralph.

Und so hoffte ich früher mal Knut zu sehen. Natürlich ich außerhalb des Meeres, denn Knut hatte ja schon ganz kräftige Beißerchen.

Liebe Water
Ich danke dir fuer dieses Bild. Ursus Maritimus Mirabilis!

The 5th of the month is the time to remember our little Prince together with friends around the world.
We have been fortunate to make many new Polar Bear friends through the Internet and all the special people who post words and pictures about them.
But one bear remains so very special. As the author of the unfinished Knut komikroman called him URSUS MARITIMUS MIRABILIS.
