Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

Partisan Reading to His Children
I have googled and googled and thoroughly examined this sculpture in Kalemegdan Park, searching fo the name of the sculptor. The closest I found was a photographer online who wrote the name of the statue, but no sculptor. I imagine he didn't know either, but I wrote to him, and am awaiting an answer.
UPDATE! I have now learned from the photographer I asked that the sculptor was Jelena Jovanovic, and it was created in 1950.
FYI, Partisans were, as Wiki says: "The Yugoslav Partisans, or the National Liberation Army, officially the National Liberation Army and Partisan Detachments of Yugoslavia, was the Communist-led resistance to the Axis powers in occupied Yugoslavia during World War II. Their leader was Josip Broz Tito."

GRAZING RAM
On my weekend trip recently, my friends' rural garden was invaded by a flock of sheep and a couple of rams. Chomp, chomp.
