Though they may seem a like an entirely different species, corks, it turns out, engage in many of the same activities, and experience many of the same emotions, as we do. We managed to catch them in their normal environs, and capture some of these regular, everyday moments:

They get some tannin time on the beach:

They’re into fresh, local produce, and even grow their own vegetables:

And though they have to watch their weight, they still love to bake:

They help each other out in a bind:

They have delusions of grandeur, and think they can do things they can’t always do:

They form cliques, and sometimes butt heads with others:

They fall in love, and swoon:

They play bar games, like darts:

They open up and get a little tipsy:

And insist on one more glass:

And just like us, they wake up the next day with miserable hangovers:

But just as with us, it was usually worth it!
