Tsessebe belong to the same family as Wildebeest and Hartebeest, all of whom are characterised by an ungainly appearance because their shoulders are higher than the withers. In Southern Africa the tsessebe are confined to northern savannah woodlands.
Territorial males rub the sides of their faces on the ground, usually on a termite mound or on a sandy patch, dropping to their knees to do so. I saw this fine specimen in the south west of the Okavango Delta in Botswana.
" When this began,
I had nothing to say
And I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find that I'm not the only person with these things in mind (inside of me)
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I got left to feel (nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own,
And the fault is my own
I want to heal, I want to feel,
What I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I felt so long (erase all the pain 'til it's gone)
I want to heal, I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong "

"Between the eyes of love, I call your name.
Behind the guarded walls I used to go,
upon a summer wind, there's a certain melody.
Takes me back to the place that I know.
On the beach...
On the beach....
Yeah..."
It's funny how life gets complicated
It's funny how life just takes its toll
It's funny how everything leads to something
Now I'm back, where I belong
Where I belong
Where I belong
When I hold you close
I'm where I belong
It's funny how everything burns to ashes
It's funny how people just lose control
Felt like my life wasn't goin' nowhere
But now I'm back, where I belong
Where I belong (Where I belong)
Where I belong (Where I belong)
When I hold you close (When I hold you close)
I'm where I belong (Where I belong)
Lost in a carousel of my emotions
I was living a life that was not my own
But in the deep and darkest nights
You got me, oh
Where I belong
Where I belong
When I hold you close (When I hold you close)
I'm where I belong (Where I belong)
Where I belong…
Foxes are small to medium-sized, omnivorous mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae. Foxes have a flattened skull, upright triangular ears, a pointed, slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush).
Twelve species belong to the monophyletic "true foxes" group of genus Vulpes. Approximately another 25 current or extinct species are always or sometimes called foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of the South American foxes
Take care of me
Talk all day then at night fall in deep
Stimulate me
I want you mental and physically
I belong to

Osteospermum used to belong to the genus Dimorphotheca, but only the annual species remain in that genus; the perennials belong to Osteospermum. It has been given several common names: African daisy, South African daisy, Cape daisy and blue-eyed daisy. There are about 50 species, native to Africa, 35 species in southern Africa, and the southwestern Arabian Peninsula. They are half-hardy perennials or sub-shrubs. 35038
A line from the song "Because the Night", although a Springsteen song, Patti Smith made it famous.
Because I was meant to see Patti Smith last night!
Syzygium is a genus of flowering plants that belongs to the myrtle family, Myrtaceae. The genus comprises about 1200–1800 species, and has a native range that extends from Africa and Madagascar through southern Asia east through the Pacific. Its highest levels of diversity occur from Malaysia to northeastern Australia, where many species are very poorly known and many more have not been described taxonomically. Cascade is a beautiful mid sized shrub with mid-sized glossy apple green leaves with attractive red and pink new growth. Spectacular pink powder-puff flowers in summer are followed by pinkish fruits that are edible and attract birds. 19479

An upside down rainbow which belongs to the halo family of weather optical phenomenon. It is made up of ice crystals on Cirrus clouds. There is lots of technical data that go with these, but I will let you look it all up!
His way had therefore come full circle, or rather had taken the form of an ellipse or a spiral, following as ever no straight unbroken line, for the rectilinear belongs only to Geometry and not to Nature and Life

Cerceris rybyensis belongs to the Crabronidae family. The species occurs from Northern Africa to Europe in the west and as far as Japan to the east. They mainly feed on the larvae of bees and fly from the beginning of June until mid-September.
My baby I know I've changed Some things are for the better and some things may also be a disadvantage. I've fought a lot of inner struggles. Fought with people. I just wanted to find love in the end. Time has separated us but time has also reunited us. And you know ... nothing happens for no reason. Where I belong to? To you .. now and forever.

Sammy belongs to my friend, Les. Mk1 used to belong to his Mum, who also used to belong to me, but I gave him away as I was living with a violent partner, and was worried Sammy would get hurt or worse, then it was my turn to leave.
Mk2 seemed to be a stray that decided she was adopting Les. Sammy is a funny one, apparently where she is sitting, is her favourite spot in the garden, next to the plant pots. 😊🐱
My son Antonio requested I take the photo, he adores cats and unfortunately because he is so allergic to them, we can't have one.
Although there is fence in the foreground, I find myself staring at the blue sky. Dreamy clouds floating by and an avalanche of thoughts pour from my head.
Happy Fence Friday
Et le temps solitaire
Le silence en marche
Et la nuit qui arrive
Les notes se suivent
Et la lumière s’enivre
La raison d’un regard
Et le temps se repose
Le matin attendra
Le matin attendra
Et le matin viendra
La main retombe
Et la main prendra
Le temps solitaire
Solidaire

I'm happy he stays where his heart belongs.

The tulip is a perennial, bulbous plant with showy flowers in the genus Tulipa, of which around 75 wild species are currently accepted and which belongs to the family Liliaceae.
The genus's native range extends west to the Iberian Peninsula, through North Africa to Greece, the Balkans, Turkey, throughout the Levant (Syria, Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan) and Iran, North to Ukraine, southern Siberia and Mongolia, and east to the Northwest of China. The tulip's centre of diversity is in the Pamir, Hindu Kush, and Tien Shan mountains. It is a typical element of steppe and winter-rain Mediterranean vegetation. A number of species and many hybrid cultivars are grown in gardens, as potted plants, or as cut flowers.
Tulips are spring-blooming perennials that grow from bulbs. Depending on the species, tulip plants can be between 4 inches (10 cm) and 28 inches (71 cm) high. The tulip's large flowers usually bloom on scapes with leaves in a rosette at ground level and a single flowering stalk arising from amongst the leaves.Tulip stems have few leaves. Larger species tend to have multiple leaves. Plants typically have two to six leaves, some species up to 12. The tulip's leaf is strap-shaped, with a waxy coating, and the leaves are alternately arranged on the stem; these fleshy blades are often bluish green in color. Most tulips produce only one flower per stem, but a few species bear multiple flowers on their scapes (e.g. Tulipa turkestanica). The generally cup or star-shaped tulip flower has three petals and three sepals, which are often termed tepals because they are nearly identical. These six tepals are often marked on the interior surface near the bases with darker colorings. Tulip flowers come in a wide variety of colors, except pure blue (several tulips with "blue" in the name have a faint violet hue).
The flowers have six distinct, basifixed stamens with filaments shorter than the tepals. Each stigma has three distinct lobes, and the ovaries are superior, with three chambers. The tulip's seed is a capsule with a leathery covering and an ellipsoid to globe shape. Each capsule contains numerous flat, disc-shaped seeds in two rows per chamber. These light to dark brown seeds have very thin seed coats and endosperm that does not normally fill the entire seed.
Etymology
The word tulip, first mentioned in western Europe in or around 1554 and seemingly derived from the "Turkish Letters" of diplomat Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, first appeared in English as tulipa or tulipant, entering the language by way of French: tulipe and its obsolete form tulipan or by way of Modern Latin tulīpa, from Ottoman Turkish tülbend ("muslin" or "gauze"), and may be ultimately derived from the Persian: دلبند delband ("Turban"), this name being applied because of a perceived resemblance of the shape of a tulip flower to that of a turban. This may have been due to a translation error in early times, when it was fashionable in the Ottoman Empire to wear tulips on turbans. The translator possibly confused the flower for the turban.
Tulips are called laleh (from Persian لاله, lâleh) in Persian, Turkish, Arabic, and Bulgarian. In Arabic letters, "laleh" is written with the same letters as Allah, which is why the flower became a holy symbol. It was also associated with the House of Osman, resulting in tulips being widely used in decorative motifs on tiles, mosques, fabrics, crockery, etc. in the Ottoman Empire
Cultivation
Tulip cultivars have usually several species in their direct background, but most have been derived from Tulipa suaveolens, often erroneously listed as Tulipa schrenkii. Tulipa gesneriana is in itself an early hybrid of complex origin and is probably not the same taxon as was described by Conrad Gesner in the 16th century.
Tulips are indigenous to mountainous areas with temperate climates and need a period of cool dormancy, known as vernalization. They thrive in climates with long, cool springs and dry summers. Tulip bulbs imported to warm-winter areas of are often planted in autumn to be treated as annuals.
Tulip bulbs are typically planted around late summer and fall, in well-drained soils, normally from 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm) deep, depending on the type. Species tulips are normally planted deeper.
Propagation
Tulips can be propagated through bulb offsets, seeds or micropropagation. Offsets and tissue culture methods are means of asexual propagation for producing genetic clones of the parent plant, which maintains cultivar genetic integrity. Seeds are most often used to propagate species and subspecies or to create new hybrids. Many tulip species can cross-pollinate with each other, and when wild tulip populations overlap geographically with other tulip species or subspecies, they often hybridize and create mixed populations. Most commercial tulip cultivars are complex hybrids, and often sterile.
Offsets require a year or more of growth before plants are large enough to flower. Tulips grown from seeds often need five to eight years before plants are of flowering size. Commercial growers usually harvest the tulip bulbs in late summer and grade them into sizes; bulbs large enough to flower are sorted and sold, while smaller bulbs are sorted into sizes and replanted for sale in the future. The Netherlands are the world's main producer of commercial tulip plants, producing as many as 3 billion bulbs annually, the majority for export.

Colias hyale belongs to the Pieridae family. Males have a wingspan of 35 - 40 mm, females of 38 - 42 mm. They are found in many parts of Europe. Their main habitats are flower meadows, dry grassland, orchards and wet meadows.
I enjoyed doing this painting and whenever I do city life paintings I cant stop listening to Glenn Frey song ‘you belong to the City’. One of the band members of Eagles and when he wanted to create solo album, he was at its best. This was a soundtrack for Television series Miami vice. What a song.
Don Johnson featured in Miami Vice who also had a bill board chart hit song Heart Beat.
Saxophone was used in most of the songs in the 80s. Which created the mood and the videos were amazingly good. If I am a time traveler, I would love to travel back to 80s where music and videos was amazingly good and inspirational.
Frankly speaking, the song by Glenn Frey inspired me to do lot of city life and city night’s art works. Whenever I do painting I want this song to be playing..Again and again. I never ever get tired listening to this song and also the other songs of 80s.
Its always raining here and the net is slow. Love to go out and capture the neon lights with my pocket camera. It may inspire me to do another city night painting. I am glad that the architect selected all the city nights’ paintings along with other paintings. Hope to do few more in future.
Until then let me close my eyes and enjoy listening to this amazing song by Glenn Frey.
“Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things, which escape those who dream only by night.”!!!
You belong to the city - Glenn Frey
Sadly, more mass murders in the world; the larger this weekend, a hate, racial nonsense shooting at a shopping mall. We must have conscience about the place where we live, we must have gun control, we must have peace, we must end hate, we must end racial differences.
"All walls fall over time
To reconcile our hearts
All walls fall over time
There's only one human race
Many faces, everybody belongs here..."
