Passing an Ovoo for a safe trip. When travelling, it is custom to stop and circle an ovoo three times in clockwise direction, in order to have a safer journey. Usually, rocks are picked up from the ground and added to the pile. Also, one may leave offerings in the form of sweets, money, milk, or vodka. If one is in a hurry while travelling and does not have time to stop at an ovoo, honking of the horn while passing by the ovoo will suffice. (Wiki)

A battle: eagle versus fox. The corsac fox, also known simply as a corsac, is a medium-sized fox found in steppes, semi-deserts and deserts in Central Asia, ranging into Mongolia and northeastern China. Since 2004, it has been classified as Least Concern by IUCN, as populations fluctuate significantly. The word "corsac" is derived from the Russian name for the animal, "korsák". The corsac fox is threatened by hunting for the fur trade. Well, guess these guys are pretty evenly matched!
