This very funny and natural capture was taken at the Lake Constance (Bodensee), Germany.

Thanks for your valuable tips and/or constructive input!!

Did you go back at the middle of the night, lit a candle and see it it moved?

No Shuva, I did not do it. But funny that you are asking, as the next day it was no longer there... strange.

PS: Any idea how I can change the country? Am I doing something wrong?

Changing the country is an Aaron Schmidt thingy. But are you connected to any corporate network or VPN? The system of am3 is supposed to be picking up the correct country.Your IP adress of 172.179.197.215 looks to be registered to AOL at Virginia, USA.

Manuella - the country coding is a bit flawed. At a minimum we need to unlock the field with Country to correct it when it registers incorrectly. You will notice mine is showing US too becaues I'm at work and on an IP range from the US on this network.

As far as your photo - this is crazy - do you have many hippos in Germany??!
