A Peacock Butterfly showing off it's four "eyes". If startled, a resting Peacock will flash open it’s wings to reveal the eyespots to deter potential predators. Taken at Staveley.

Wood Pigeon (Columba palumbus). This wood pigeon was trying to keep cool by oscillating his throat. However, he just looked a bit deranged to me!
A nod to the great British ban Anathema with the title of this one.
I think it is a weather station that marks the location of a sand bank.

I went to Shannon Falls the other day hoping to get some wonderful waterfall shots. Unfortunately, the sun was blazing and in most places, the water was, well, overexposed. The actual waterfall falls from a height of 335m or just over 1,000 ft. Then it continues on downward and into the roaring creek. I scrambled down the rocks to try to get a shady spot along the creek, which were very small areas, and realized I'll have to go there again on a cloudy day. This was the most I could get, and even here, you can see that there is too much direct sunlight. And I think I'll have to wear hip waders or something so I can shoot from the water, instead of off to one side.
I haven't been on Flickr for a few days, so will try to catch up with your images from today.
Happy Weekend!
“...A tarde cai e eu camboneeio um mate
junto ao braseiro do fogo de chão;
o pai-de-fogo, puro cerne de branquilho,
quiemando aos poucos na paz de um galpão...”

Nach - L'aventure youtu.be/3CvEo2aPvHI
Si j'avais un bateau,
Je partirais loin d'ici,
Je partirais loin de là,
Je mettrais les voiles.
J'irais comme l'oiseau
Parcourir la vie,
Découvrir ma voie,
Décrocher mon étoile.
Qu'importe si je me perds
Quand le ciel s'étend en moi.
J'avance,
Bercée par l'univers
Plus rien ne me retient.
J'avance et j'oublie
Je pars,
Je pars à l'aventure...
Je laisse tout derrière moi,
Je pars
Soyez-en sûrs,
Cette fois même si
Ici tout me retient,
Même si dehors
Tout me fait peur,
Je pars
A l'aventure
Si j'en avais la force,
Je crierais haut et fort
Au sommet des montagnes
Tout ce que j'ai au fond.
Si j'en avais le cran,
J'échangerais mon sort
Contre l'air qui soigne,
Je quitterais ma maison.
Qu'importe si je me traîne,
Si le voyage est long...
J'avance.
Si le manque me peine,
Si je perds la raison,
J'avance et j'oublie
Je pars,
Je pars à l'aventure
Je laisse tout derrière moi,
Je pars
Soyez-en sûrs,
Cette fois même si
Ici tout me retient,
Même si dehors
Tout me fait peur,
Je pars
A l'aventure
Pars
Pars
Pars
Pars
Je pars, soyez-en sûrs et cette fois je pars...

Just close your eyes
And create yourself a better life
Let the wind blow through your hair
Let the music take you there
And make a better life, a better life, life
So close your eyes
And create yourself a better life
Let the wind blow through your hair
Let the music take you there
And make a better life
A better life

Things will turn out right
A special celebration of the national day in this pandemic moment. To prevent mass gathering of the fireworks display in a prime venue, the authority had fixed the firework celebrations in various locations at the neighbourhood over the country.

Desde Santiago de Compostela tomamos el camino a Orense y disfrutamos de paso del paisaje gallego. Nos encontramos con este mirador de Guillade donde textualmente decía el panel informativo “Punto situado entre A Cañiza e Filgueira “. Es éste el Mirador de Guillade, paraje perteneciente al concello de Crecente parroquia de Filgueira. Desde este lugar el visitante disfrutará de una panorámica espectacular de indudable belleza que son los meandros del rio MIño, en su fluir hacia el Océano Atlántico. A la derecha la villa termal ourensana de Cortegada de Baños asomando entre la vegetación , el puente sobre el Miño, en el límite entre las provincias de Pontevedra y Ourense…el puente del ferrocarril y al fondo la via que surca la ribera del MIño.
El reino es verdeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
Always a fabulous sight even when climbing up Cul Mor on a dank and dirty day. Every cloud and all that.

Cette semaine, je suis retournée au Marais Audubon pour tenter de voir le Martin pêcheur. Il ne s'est pas montré mais je suis tombée sur un couple de Tarier des prés, probablement les derniers à migrer car tous les autres sont partis dans le sud.

This week I returned to the Audubon March expecting to see the Kingfisher. He didn't show up but I saw a Whinchat couple probably the last ones to migrate because all the others left south.

Have all a a good start into the last August days ;-)
The Green heron is a small solitary heron that lives along shaded riverbanks or quiet streams in areas of dense vegetation. It is often somewhat secretive but is sometimes to be seen crying "kyow" while flying up a creek. When in the open, it will often flick its short tail nervously, while raising and lowering its crest. The "green" of its back is an iridescence, and often appears as a dull blue or just dark.
Although they are quite common, Green herons are shy and so are not often observed. Their active period is during the day and they nest within their feeding areas. To catch fish they either stand in the water or perch low above the water, watching for prey, or they track it down. Occasionally they will swim after prey. They will retract their neck, holding their bill downwards aiming at a fish, take a few cautious steps and stab their prey with their bill. They feed either alone or as a pair. When threatened, alarmed or aggressive, Green herons raise their crest, hold their neck still and flutter their tail. They are territorial and do not tolerate intrusions. They attack intruders on sight, flying towards them, making a loud and guttural repetitive "annnck-annnnck". This call is also repeated as an alarm.
The Green heron uses tools, being one of the few bird species to do so. It drops objects such as bread crusts, twigs, insects, earthworms, and feathers on the water’s surface to attract small fish.
I found this one along Peavine Road in Osceola County, Florida.
Point Betsie Lighthouse
I have wanted a winter shoot at this lighthouse for a long time now. Finally thanks to our friends John and Carla who generously shared their up north cabin with us, I was able to get over to this site in the winter. Even the weather cooperated beyond all expectations. I will try not to exhaust my contacts with endless variations of this wonderful day...although it is tempting...:-)))
Thank you so much for your visit!

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a blue day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Looking close on Friday is: a single berry or cherry. As you can see I chose a raspberry. And since it is very difficult to photograph its own hand, I asked Mr. Severed Hand … well to give me a hand with this picture. I don’t know for you, but when I was a kid, I ate my raspberries like this. I always start to put them on my fingers and then I had raspberries fingers. Of course, my mother wasn’t a fan of this kind of manners, but I’m sure she was eating her raspberries exactly like me when she was younger. Today, my sons love to play raspberries fingers each time we have raspberries… and juste like my Mom did: I’m not approving any playing with food at my table.
Have a beautiful day !! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
A male banded demoiselle damselfly, Calopteryx splendens. Taken at the National Memorial Arboretum, Staffordshire, England at Watersmeet, the junction of the rivers, Trent and Thame. I think it is a young male as its wing colouration is not very bright.
Thank you for visiting. I appreciate the kind comments and faves very much.
