Comments
At first it was just one, but it called for two others. One of them was bigger than the others and very cheeky. While I was taking pictures, the big one tried to get to my backpack and hiking poles, which were a few meters behind me. It tried to pick them up. When I was heading back they followed me for around 50m, but stayed then in the area. They flew around, landed on rocks, communicated over noises with each other.
