Do you ever come across a beautiful photo and wonder what the story might be behind it? Yeah, us too. That’s why we decided to share some animal photos along with some of their stories so you can feel a deeper connection to the image you’re looking at.
Sometimes, the story behind an image makes it more powerful. Sometimes, it actually takes away from the narrative you’ve created in your mind. But the truth is always refreshing to read.
We hope you enjoy this lovely selection of beautiful animals their touching stories!
1. “This is a Canadian goose named Dorthy. She visits my grandparents’ house every year to make her nest and lay her eggs.”
