    @suellendunlop2029 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One of the places we go camping (in Australia) there are golf balls scattered throughout the area, the nearing golf course over 20km away. The theory is that the crows pick them up thinking they are eggs and take them back to their territory and drop them when they discover they aren’t. Don’t know if that’s a possibility for the numerous golf balls you are finding 🤷‍♀️.
    Another day of great finds. Following Simon - you had better be careful he might reach 40k in 3 months instead of 3 years.

    @ElizabethDMadison 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The thing that some people had claimed to you was a sword hanger is definitely a piece of harness hardware, probably a hanger for a check rein. In other words this hardware woudl be attached to the crownpiece of the bridle that a rein passes through, sort of below the horse's ear, to attach to the surrcingle (belly band) that prevents the horse from putting his head down to eat. Not a driving rein but a check rein.
