These kids started horse playing with each other. Unfortunately, by the time I got my camera out they had stopped. This neighborhood is in fact very well off and the richest area I’ve seen to date.
SFC Plummer lines up the kids in order to hand out candy. Short vid but good example showing how the kids swarm around a soldier. This town’s kid’s have been known to get very aggressive in taking candy. That noise is the Stryker. I shot the vid from on top of it.
Awww- they are so cute. Also– I was quite surprised– you can hear so many birds tweeting in that second video.
Birds are very common over here though they all mostly look like Finches. Its the reptiles and arachnids I see very little of.
