The diamond of Serifos is its capital, Chora, which is considered to be a model of a medieval castled settlement, built amphitheatrically on the rocky height of the bay of Livadi , in order to protect it from the pirate invasions.
Would have liked the coot closer to the camera but also didn't want to lose the lovely pond surroundings & the reflections by focusing in too close so the coot had to stay distant:)
Enjoy a lovely weekend everyone & for those of you struggling with the heat, stay as cool as this coot!

The Tour du Mont Bénand (Altitude - 1248 metres) is a classic of the Chablais, which offers many remarkable panoramas. Lake Geneva, the Jura, the Memises, the Bernex valley with its peaks (Dent d'Oche, Mont César, Pic de Boré, Pelluaz) but also Switzerland.

My tribute to Jo Cox
and all the other recent victims of unrestrained violence !
The silver Y is a medium-sized moth with a wingspan of 30 to 45 mm. The wings are intricately patterned with various shades of brown and grey providing excellent camouflage. In the centre of each forewing there is a silver-coloured mark shaped like a letter Y or a Greek letter Gamma. There are several different forms with varying colours depending on the climate in which the larvae grow. The head almost seems like a head of a monkey.
Les principales grottes dans le Vercors sont :

Finchale Priory (pronounced finkle) was a 13th century Benedictine priory, the remains are sited by the River Wear, four miles from Durham
The very extensive remains of a 13th century priory, founded on the site of a retired pirate's hermitage.
Part of it later served as a holiday retreat for the monks of Durham Cathedral. Beautifully sited by the River Wear with delightful riverside walks nearby.
Ruined priory, former home of 12th century hermit, St. Godric.
You know I like to do sunrises, unfortunately there was not a decent one all the time I was in Iceland. This was the closest I got. I do like the range of blue tones tinted by the pinks.

Often seen "doing the splits" as each foot grasps a different stem, Marsh Wrens are tiny, vocal inhabitants of (where else?) marshes. I have seen one every year in the exact same spot in the marsh at Lake St. Clair Metropark. As they do not overwinter in the North, it's pretty unlikely that this is the same wren that I see every year. This would be a good candidate for banding to determine whether it is the same bird.
That was my first thought when I saw this area couple of years ago for the first time. ;)
Grafelijkheidsduinen - Noord Holland
The area was used to extract drinking water. When this stopped in 1982, a beautiful area with dune lakes arose. Now the area is managed by Landscape North Holland. In the part that is closed off, Highland cattle and Konik horses are kept. The walking and biking trails in the area are freely accessible.

Desearos una feliz semana
In winter, the rice terraces are free from plants, so that the light often reflected in various colors of the sky. When we arrived at the viewpoint pulled fog over the rice fields, but towards the afternoon (as in the picture) the fog lifted .
I think it is a hard work to plant all this fields with rice. With machines may not be working there. The non- water-filled terraces are usually planted with potatoes .
Im Winter sind die Reisterrassen frei von Pflanzen, so dass sich das Licht oft in verschiedenen Farben des Himmels spiegelt. Als wir am Aussichtspunkt ankamen zog Nebel über die Reisfelder, der sich aber zum Nachmittag hin (wie auf dem Bild) lichtete.
Ich denke, es ist ein hartes Stück Arbeit, die vielen Felder mit Reis zu bepflanzen. Mit Maschinen geht dort überhaupt nichts. Die nicht mit Wasser gefüllten Terrassen werden meist mit Kartoffeln bepflanzt.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!
