Meadwolark. The Eastern and Western Meadowlarks overlap and compete over a large part of their territory, including here. They tell each other apart by distinctive calls, so listen carefully to these 3 photos to distinguish the species. There were quite a few active that day. Not sure how many individuals are shown here.
In every 12 years interval a grand festival, called Naropa, takes place at ancient Hemis monastery.
In Naropa 2016, apart from normal visitors, as many as 5 million Buddhist people of Drukpa order gathered from all over the world to make it one of the largest Buddhist festival in the world.
People, dressed in traditional costume and adorn in typical Ladakhi stone and bone ornaments, participated in this week long festival.
I took the photograph of two friends there.

The old jetty poles at Port Willunga, South Australia. These are all that remains of the jetty when Port Willunga was an important grain port.
Complete transformation following 3 days of non-stop rain as dry creek beds became rushing torrents of mud water and debris at Annadel State Park. Santa Rosa received about 14 inches of rainfall, and some areas of Sonoma County got as much as 18-20 inches.
The Russian River has reached flood stages in some areas of the county, but fortunately where I am we are not impacted directly by any flooding.
Apart from this being another picture perfect day, at first glance there doesn't seem to be a lot of change from my first image, but change has been happening. The sky deck floors were lifted into place and secured in late March. This skydeck will open to the public and offer amazing views of the surrounding precinct.
Just a silly question that appears to me when i looked at this picture, i mean the distance between me, my milk maker, and that mighty mountain. Basically, it's not that important, but when you have a lot of time and doing nothing, that silly question becomes more important than editing the image itself.
Anyhow, i've done a little bit of editing for this picture, increased the brightness, adding more texture, adjusted the colors, putting more blue on the sky, also making that grass looks greener by increasing their saturation.
Back on how far apart? From where i stand...i'm not gonna tell you, unless you think it's important too 😝.
The image shows the uncertain gait and gaze of this woman with her equally elderly dog in contrast to the dynamic world around her
Apart from an occasional freight, the trains on the Old Line (Amsterdam - Haarlem - Leiden) are rather boring. Four SLT's in the Haarlem - Leiden - The Hague commuter service and eight VIRM bilevels in the Amsterdam - The Hague v.v. and Amsterdam - Vlissingen v.v. service.
This is NSR 9510 at Hillegom, July 19, 2022.
Have you ever thought of the twins with different ages.... I wonder why we call Rawalpindi a twin city with Islamabad. Hardly seperated by 15 KM and at many places less, actually they lie world apart. Islamabad has existed hardly for 50 years, where are Rawalpindi has existed for centuries, may be thousand of years.
Rawalpindi's charm lies in its traditional, somewhat chaotic subcontinental hustle and bustle atmosphere in its traffic-jammed mostly narrow streets, contrasting quite sharply with the tree-lined alleys, cleanliness and peace of Islamabad.
Rawalpindi does have much to offer for visitors. Specially when you enter the Old City Bazars, Like Bhabra Bazar, Purana Qilla, Bagh Sardaran, the centuries old building tell you the story of this wonderful city's life across the span of times.

A VOLTE E' MEGLIO NON NASCERE
La cavolaia è un insetto che fa parte della famiglia dei lepidotteri, possiamo vederlo svolazzare in fase adulta come farfalla, ma a preoccupare il coltivatore è il bruco, implacabile divoratore delle piante di cavolo.
Questo insetto infatti è temuto in agricoltura perché depone le sue uova proprio sulle foglie dei cavoli e in generale delle varie piante crucifere, dalle uova escono larve particolarmente voraci, che danneggiano rapidamente le verdure, sbranando le foglie.
Le larve nutrendosi delle foglie mangiucchiano i cavoli, dilaniando e sporcando l’ortaggio, provocando anche marcescenze. Quando le uova fanno nascere numerosi bruchi l’azione distruttiva può essere anche rapida e pregiudicare totalmente il raccolto delle piante colpite.
Le farfalle adulte invece non portano nessun danno diretto anche se ovviamente deponendo le uova sono la causa del problema e per questo è corretto contrastarle con trattamenti dedicati.

SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER NOT TO BE BORN
The cavolaia is an insect that is part of the lepidoptera family, we can see it fluttering in the adult stage as a butterfly, but what worries the grower is the caterpillar, relentless devourer of cabbage plants.
In fact, this insect is feared in agriculture because it lays its eggs on the leaves of the cabbage and in general of the various cruciferous plants, particularly voracious larvae emerge from the eggs, which quickly damage the vegetables, tearing the leaves apart.
The larvae feeding on the leaves nibble on the cabbage, tearing and dirtying the vegetable, also causing rot. When the eggs give birth to numerous caterpillars, the destructive action can also be rapid and totally affect the harvest of the affected plants.
Adult butterflies, on the other hand, do not cause any direct damage even if obviously by laying eggs they are the cause of the problem and for this reason it is correct to fight them with dedicated treatments.

Thought I'd update you on the latest member of my furry 4-legged family - little hammie's been with me just over a week now. I named him "Pippin" (after the hobbit in Lord of the Rings, it just suited him - he's an adventurous little thing!). I'm so pleased with how well he's settled in... I'd been told in the shop he wasn't yet tame and worried he'd be shy. However, whoever bred him handled him well (or he's just an exceptionally confident little hammie!) cause from the start he's been a happy and nosy little character... After 24hrs, I started stroking him, then a little while later, gently scooping him up in my hands]. At first, he scurried off quickly, but now he will happily sit or walk over my hands for a few minutes at a time. He's never once tried to bite or anything :)
He goes out for little adventures each evening in his ball. Of course it's hard to tell with such a tiny creature but I think he really enjoys the explorations around our downstairs. He rolls up and down the hall, the living room and the kitchen, stopping only to sniff an interesting item in his path, give his face a quick wash... or, to investigate Barney!! I'd originally planned to keep dog and hamster apart, particularly when Pippin was in his ball - as Barney is ball obsessed and also a hunter of voles when we're on walks (albeit a very ineffective one!). However as Pip likes to roll everywhere on the ground floor, it wasn't really feasible, so I've taught Barney to be very quiet and calm when Pip's rolling around.
After one quiet but firm "settle down" from me, (he looked a bit too interested on the first evening) he has been good as gold. He actually tries to keep away from Pippin but there's no escape! Pip will spy Barney from up the hall and make a beeline straight for the big dog. He will then sit right up against Barney, sniffing at his paws and fur with obvious interest. Pippin doesn't seem scared, he's happy to groom right next to either dog and doesn't freeze or try and run off... In fact, if I move him away, he often rolls straight back to Barney! Barney lies quietly, deliberately not looking at the hammie and gently moving his paws out the way from time to time. Don't like everything the "Dog Whisperer" says but to use his phrase, Barney's the model of a dog in a "calm, submissive state". Obviously, I wouldn't leave them alone though, it's nice they seem to be co-existing but I wouldn't want Pippin to get hurt...
Anyway, Pippin seems happy in his new home, the dogs have accepted him and he's being very friendly and confident. All going very well really, now, if I can just clicker train him to pose for the camera.... ;-) Haha, will try getting some nicer pics soon, maybe of the odd pair together, reminds me of Bolt and Rhino (if you've seen "Bolt", you'll know what I'm talking about!)
