But then I noticed a water buffalo. At first I thought he was swimming and taking a bath. After an hour he still hadn't managed to reach land. His head was more under water than above it. After 2 hours I thought it didn't matter if I was making a fool of myself, I'd get help. Big fire brigade operation! When they arrived, the water buffalo managed to reach land. He lay on his side for a while, completely exhausted. The Fire brigade stayed until the buffalo got up on his legs. A rescue in this area would have been a major challenge. I was grateful that everything ended well.
the fire department people thanked me. I didn't take any more pictures because suddenly there were an incredible number of people in this place. There was no one to see before!

now I will go there again BTW: there were my Caspian terns again I didn't have time to take photos anymore. The rescue operation took a lot of time.
