Female Kingfisher (Alcedo attis). At last, after several tries, I managed to see and get some decent shots of a Kingfisher so please forgive me if I do share quite a few as I just love these stunning birds.

Le Colorado provençal à Rustrel est probablement l'un des plus beaux sites touristiques du Luberon en Provence.
Il s'étend sur plus de 30 hectares. Ses sentiers en terre permettent de découvrir des falaises érodées comprenant plus de 20 teintes d'ocre. Le « cirque de Barriès », le « cirque de Bouvène », les bassins de décantation, les cheminées de fée, le « Sahara », les tunnels, le lit de la Dôa (la petite rivière locale) offrent des décors variés aux randonneurs. Le chemin de grande randonnée GR 6 traverse le site.

The most spectacular of ochre sites is nicknamed “the Colorado Provençal”. The unexpected Colorado of Rustrel ranks among Provence’s most beautiful attractions. Situated on one of the largest ochre quarries in the world, the Colorado of Rustrel was, at one time, one of the best known producers of ochre in France. Today, the hues and the strange looking shapes of the outcrops, shaped by centuries of exposure to the elements, are simply breathtaking.

Eine Welt in Ocker..Ein prächtiger, farbenfroher Rundwanderweg führt durch die Ockerbrüche bei Rustrel im Naturpark Luberon.
Die verschiedenen Teile der Ockerbrüche mit immer wieder wechselnden Farben und mit klangvollen Namen wie "Cheminées-des-Fées" oder "Sahara" verzaubern.
Nach Besichtigung dieses prachtcvollenOrtes erscheint die Welt
...farblos! Schon mehrmals habe ich diesen faszinierenden Ort besucht.
Diese Aufnahme ist im September diesen Jahres entstanden.

Vuelvo a compartir con vosotros este correo que recibí hace unos días de Arturo Schell ...
"Desde hace dos años mi familia está involucrada en concienciar acerca de la importancia de la donación de medula en la lucha contra la leucemia.
El espectacular incremento de donantes en estos años nos ha animado a colaborar en Uvas de Vida destinado íntegramente al Proyecto Lydia de la Fundación Cris Cáncer.
Por ello te ruego difundas entre tus contactos y amigos el siguiente enlace
criscancer.org/uvasdevida/index.php
También te adjunto, para tu información, cómo surgió la idea

cómo empezó todo por Mateo

Situada sobre un promontorio de la costa casareña entre el río Manilva y el Arroyo Camarate, se encuentra la Torre de la Sal o Torre del Salto de la Mora, como también es conocida.
Cuenta con dos alturas, y además tiene la peculiaridad de poseer una planta cuadrada, lo que la diferencia del resto de torres que nos encontramos a lo largo de la costa. Y es que, a diferencia de éstas, la Torre de la Sal no sería una torre de vigilancia propiamente dicha.
Orbaneja del Castillo es una localidad situada en la provincia de Burgos, comunidad autónoma de Castilla y León (España), comarca de Páramos. Pertenece administrativamente al municipio de Valle de Sedano aunque tradicionalmente era un enclave independiente.
Se caracteriza por su paisaje kárstico modelado por el agua. La Cueva del Agua ha motivado el interés para diversos estudiosos de la geología y ciencia afines
Espero que esta escena y foto también sea de vuestro agrado

Seen during another bike tour on a wonderful autumn day with perfect weather in Stuttgart, Bad Cannstatt (Steinhaldenfeld), Germany next to the river Neckar.
The golden tones of the foliage are really very lushly this year.

Happy Friday!
October waved goodby with sunshine and warm tempereratures and we used the perfect weather for an extended hiking tour on the Wittedindsweg, a crest trail on the Wiehengebirge from Porta Westfalica in the East to the Osnabrück area in the West. Before the sun went down we visited the most interesting spots of the Eastern part of the trail.
