A lone cormorant indulges in a little meditation as the other water birds prepare for another night on the lake. I took this at Wyndley Pool in Sutton Park, on Christmas Day, at the end of our walk with Zak. I do hope you like it, together with the music I've chosen to accompany my photograph.

Depuis plusieurs jours il en passe souvent, parfois vers l'ouest d'autre comme aujourd'hui vers l'est, je pense que la remontée vers le les pays nordiques est commencée.
Bon week-end à toutes et à tous.
Some birds, including this little warbler, appeared noticeably soggy on a wet, foggy day last month at Chicago's Montrose Point Bird Sanctuary.
Thanks to Sharon (& Wayne) for the ID on this bird as a White-Eyed Vireo.
Several clouds were growing while I was shooting the Bryce Canyon at sunset, why not mount the Zoom and do some shoots on the far distance? The small mesa on the horizon under the pink clouds was absolutely interesting and mysterious. Who knows its name?

INDIEN, Khajuraho (Tempel)
Most Khajuraho temples were built between 950 and 1050 by the Chandela dynasty. Historical records note that the Khajuraho temple site had 85 temples by 12th century, spread over 20 square kilometers. Of these, only about 20 temples have survived, spread over 6 square kilometers. Of the various surviving temples, the Kandariya Mahadeva Temple is decorated with a profusion of sculptures with intricate details, symbolism and expressiveness of ancient Indian art
The Khajuraho temples feature a variety of art work, of which 10% is sexual or erotic art outside and inside the temples. Some of the temples that have two layers of walls have small erotic carvings on the outside of the inner wall. Some scholars suggest these to be tantric sexual practices.] Other scholars state that the erotic arts are part of Hindu tradition of treating kama as an essential and proper part of human life, and its symbolic or explicit display is common in Hindu temples. James McConnachie, in his history of the Kamasutra, describes the sexual-themed Khajuraho sculptures as "the apogee of erotic art":
