As far as sticks go, Blanca subscribes to the motto: The bigger the better! With considerable effort she dragged this huge branch out of the water (see photo in first comment) and up onto the dune. Quite an impressive feat ... but she forgot one thing: Her mom cannot throw that stick for her!! LOL!
Going up, I hope the weather holds for them whilst the new roof is constructed!

The Dornier Do 31 is an experimental vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) jet-propelled transport designed and produced by West German aircraft manufacturer Dornier.
The development of the Do 31 was motivated principally by heavy interest expressed by the German Air Force in the acquisition of short take-off and vertical landing aircraft (STOVL)-capable aircraft. Such ambitions received a further boost from the issuing of NATO specification NBMR-4, which called for a VTOL-capable tactical support aircraft that would be operated in conjunction with the EWR VJ 101, a West German VTOL strike aircraft designed under the NATO contract of BMR-3. A total of three aircraft, two flight-capable and one static airframe, were constructed and used for testing. On 10 February 1967, the Do 31 performed its maiden flight; the first hovering flight of the type took place during July 1967.
In addition to performing test flights, Dornier often demonstrated the Do 31 prototypes to officials and the general public, such as at the 1969 Paris Air Show. Several world records were set by the type during its limited flying career. When the high cost, technical and logistical difficulties of operating such an aircraft were realized, the German Air Force opted to cease trials involving VTOL aircraft, such as the Do 31, VJ101, and the later VFW VAK 191B. In the face of limited sales prospects and a lack of state support, the Do 31 and other VTOL projects lingered as research projects for a time prior to their manufacturers abandoning all activity. The Do 31 remains the only VTOL-capable jet-powered transport aircraft to ever fly.
Because there was a hunger in me to see everything and do everything. I wanted to be everyone I saw. I wasn't enough for me. Can you understand that?

Hello there! I hope all is well my friends! Happy Humpday! I am here featuring Ayla. with this new bedroom set called Loft Bedroom which is new to the Shiny Shabby Event! This set is really gorgeous. I love black/darker spaces so this set was right up my alley today. I also have some of my favorite fur friends from JIAN. The Forest Cat collection is one of my favorites from the store and they add personality to any space! Most of the items in here are from Ayla.

A little to the right of this is a brothel. So, yes, you get your bang one way or the other.
A male Crimson Sunbird (Aethopyga siparaja) was scanning for the small insects in an early morning between bushes and network of branches. I was chasing this agile beauty for long and finally got it for a moment in a relatively open area. The beauty of the red colour and the two purple dazzling colour stripes in neck made that noticeable from a distance. Finally managed it in poor light. Pics was taken from Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary in West Bengal, India.
Cattle Egret / Kuhreiher (Bubulcus ibis)
I couldn't help but smile when I watched this ambitious Cattle Egret struggle to balance across my eye-line with an enormous stick!
The beaver markings were fresh, so I'm sure our presence annoyed them. Maybe next year we'll have a better view of the pond.

This little guitar is dreaming of one day playing at The Ryman... I'd settle for just a chance to visit!
For Looking Close...on Friday!'s #keychain theme
(Honestly, until two months ago, I'd never heard of The Ryman, though apparently it's fairly well known in musical circles, mainly for being the home of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and hosting many country music legends. As a family, we're huge country music fans. My husband was lucky enough to visit Nashville for work earlier this year. This was present for our guitar-playing youngest son. )

A grey heron attempting to swallow a large (1 kg plus) perch at Burton Mere Wetlands RSPB reserve. I'm pretty sure the fish was dead, but am less sure as to whether the heron killed it or found it.
I watched it for a while during which it made several attempts to fit in the fish, none of which were successful.
