The most memorable "wild"life encounter for me happened at the Kolmården zoo safari park in Sweden some ten odd years ago.

We were driving through at a slowish pace when a bear walked right infront of the car, stopped there (thus stopping us as well), and took a dump. We were taping the entire time through the park, so naturally it was recorded as well.

Living outside of anything that could be called majorly urban, there are days when all I have to do is look outside to find a hare or a squirrel. But only rarely do I find one that is happy to be photographed by yours truly from ~1-2 m distance on the ground.

At our cottage we got a lot of birdlife, but rarely swans that align so perfectly for a photo. I've got the original photo somewhere, for now I could only find the screenshot from when the image was my wallpaper.
