The Western Jackdaw is a smaller member of the crow family.
From research and experiments it is clear that these are very intelligent birds.
Anyone with bird feeders can observe how inventive they can be when trying to get to the food.
They are capable imitators of the human voice and of calls of other birds.
also called European Jackdaw or Eurasian Jackdaw

Breaking all rules here, but on purpose :)
A glorious vista to be enjoyed from the tip of one of several enormous fjords of the Westfjords in Iceland, which are arranged like the fingers of a hand. From here one overlooks the North Atlantic und two fjords. But I was more interested in this enormous Dolmen which serves as signpost indicating the different directions.
Old houses always have vibes. This one was particularly interesting. It is maintained beautifully, but has some rather strange vibes coming off of it is in an area that could be very busy. It brings nothing to the area because it’s been closed for quite some time.. i’ve always thought when I see really interesting properties if walls could talk, what would they say? This house didn’t seem to be able to share. No one seems to know the story of the closures of every business that has tried to survive in this historic building. The only comments I obtained from a couple of locals is that the place is haunted and very creepy.. one lady shared a worker has been coming and going doing some restoration and his constant companion, a small, mixed breed dog stops, staring at the door, and refuses to go in even though her owner is in there. That is a curious thing. As the little dog is quite adventurous per the lady, and always accompanies him on all jobs . hmmm
Cautious, but not that bothered sheep eyeing us on the way up the Torr Head. I deliberately used the title of a Cranberries song - a band that has "Ireland" written all over it :) :) :)
Torr Head, a slight detour on the Causeway Coastal Route is the closest point between Scotland and Ireland and offers spectacular views of Mull of Kintyre.

I took this shot in my garden on February 24th I was not expecting to be using the camera at all that day . We had just had a third storm and it had been raining heavily for hours . After it finished I went down the garden to check for fence damage there was none but a lot of standing water. I was amazed when I got to the bottom of the garden to see the crocus I planted into a lawn were looking surprisingly really good . I went back and got the camera and Mary and we enjoyed this little miracle. We have a saying round here that may sound rude but its actually a compliment an these crocus are clearly “ tough little buggers “ They have survived the wettest February in England since records began
THANKS FOR YOUR VISITING BUT CAN I ASK YOU NOT TO FAVE AN IMAGE WITHOUT ALSO MAKING A COMMENT. MANY THANKS KEITH. ANYONE MAKING MULTIPLE FAVES WITHOUT COMMENTS WILL SIMPLY BE BLOCKED

Lyrics by Jones 2.0, Fearless Soul | Music Composed by Patrick Rundblad
Transcript – “I AM ME” Official Music Video – Fearless Soul
I AM ME.
I’ll never pretend to be another.
I will never want to BE another.
I will not change who I am just to fit in.
I AM ME.
I am not perfect… but I’m working on myself… working to become the best version of myself.
I’m not putting on a mask no more
The true me can’t stay hidden
I’m not putting on a show no more
I’m not gonna act to fit in
Yeah I might not be perfect
but I’m working on my best version
I’m on my way
Yes I’m on my way
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
Yes I am
I am me
I’m not putting on a mask no more
I’ve got my own life to live
There’s so much more I can give
I walk my own path
I won’t pretend to be another
Never want to be another
Won’t apologize for being me
That’s all I can be.
Yeah I might not be perfect
But I’m working on my best version
I’m on my way
Yeah I’m on my way
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in?
I won’t.
I am me.
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
In my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me.
Yeah I might not be perfect
But I’m working on my best version!
I’m on my way.
I’m on my way!
If I have to I’ll walk alone
Being myself is all that I know
Want me to change to fit in? I won’t.
I am me
I can’t pretend to be what I’m not
in my own way I know I am strong
I am free to do what I want
I am me
Yes I am
Yes I am me
Got a job
That’s okay
But they’ve got me workin’ night and day.
Punchin’ in
Punchin’ out
Is this really what life’s all about?
What you are gonna do
What you are gonna feel? I don’t know.
What you ore gonna feel
What you are gonna do?
Won’t someone tell me?

There’s only one thing left to say.
What you wanna do
What you wanna say.
C’est la vie
C’est la vie –
That’s iust the way it goes – That’s right!
C’est la vie
C’est la vie –
That’s iust the way it goes – That’s right!
Baby’s gone all alone
Are you sad because you’re on your own?
Get back up
Party down
There’s so many good ones still around.
What you are gonna do
What you are gonna feel? I don’t know.
What you are gonna feel
What you are gonna do?
Won’t someone tell me?
What you wanna say
What you wanna do
I guess there’s just one thing to say.
C’est la vie
C’est la vie –
That’s iust the way it goes – That’s right! . . .
Hey

Your love, lifting me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it it up
Quench my desire
And I'll be at your side
Forevermore
You know your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting me (love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
Listen
Now, once I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and it soon departed
And you know, he never
Showed his face again
That's why your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on lifting me (love keeps lifting me)
Higher (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps lifting me)
Keep on (love keeps lifting me)
Lifting me (lifting me)
Higher and higher (higher), alright
I'm so glad I finally found you
Yes, that one in a million, girl
And now with my loving arms around you
Honey, I can stand up
And face the world
Winter here in Northwest Germany has been quite mild but dull so far. I am not afraid to face reality, but from time to time I love to unbox a little bit of Summer sunshine to boost my vitamin D level....Blavand Fyr, Jylland,Denmark

Absolutely random, but very spectacular. When I tried to shoot a fireworks, I pushed the tripod and.....Voilà

I have just spent the last four days in a tiny little town called Sea Lake, in the Mallee district of north-west Victoria, about 4 hours from where I live. The town is famous for the myriad and ever changing reflections found at the salty Lake Tyrrell.
I will include more information as I post images (of which there are very many!). I didn't know what to start with and as much as I hate posting photos of myself, this was the scene that greeted us when we first arrived and I think having someone in the image illustrates its claim to fame ( This was after several selfie attempts that just show gumboots!). The night sillouhettes are what the Asian tourist market fly across the world for.

Not sure why, but this image pulls me. Most of my images in this area are with people in them, and most of them are watching the sunset or waiting for a cruise... But this day, this is what caught my eye.

I really like autumn but not these grey November days. So here's a shot from a walk on a sunny day in the Harz Mountains in October ☀️ Have a sunshiny Sunday everybody ☀️
The Ilse valley (German: Ilsetal) is the ravine of the Ilse stream in the northern boundary of the Harz mountain range in Germany. Part of the Harz National Park, it runs from the town of Ilsenburg at the foot of the mountain range up to the source region near the summit of the Brocken massif, the highest mountain of the range. The scenic valley is a popular hiking area (Wikipedia)
