Friendship & Vision emanate at Founders Corner...
Life-size bronze sculptures were unveiled earlier today of Mr Alan Bond and Mr Harunori Takahashi, who shared a vision which became reality... that of Bond University.
Alan Bond, 1987:
'The establishment of Bond University will herald innovation. It will be a practical University. Bond University will set new standards in excellence for other institutions to copy and follow.
'It will be bold and pioneering, resourceful and determined. Its graduates will have demonstrated they are hard workers and will be in demand around the world.
'Bond University will always look and plan for the future - a future where Australia is a partner in business ventures and joint developments throughout the global village.
'Bond University is now in place. Vision has become reality. The way is now - ahead.'
Harunori Takahashi, 1987:
'We are able to join with Australia in the project of Bond University with the highest aspirations and motivation to set new standards of achievement.
'Bond University will offer education in a specialised way to Australia and to other countries, enabling its students to take their place in a world of rapid technological change and equip them to Take advantage of technology to reach out and achieve new goals and new horizons.
'We are honoured to be a partner in a venture which marks an historic new milestone in Japanese-Australian friendship and co-operation.'

I find this interesting. Did she already have a suitable nesting host already picked out to deliver her egg(s) or did she have to now find such a 'home'.
These bronze turtles reside on the grounds of the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi, just outside the sea turtle enclosure (where a couple of injured Kemps Ridley turtles are in residence).
These big bugs are pretty common here in Newfoundland, but I understand they were an introduction from Europe a long time ago. They are a welcome visitor to people's gardens and greenhouses since they are gobblers-up of other insects.
I like to think that, when people started imagining what dinosaurs might have looked like, they saw these guys as models.
With the snow subsiding and the roads safer to drive on I decided to head up to believer woods to have a wonder and practice flying the drone. Arriving at Postbridge I had to park here and walk the mile or so to the woods as the road was still closed. After all this and drone time over I explored the woodland around Bellever when I came across this beautiful bronzy brown tree standing out against the surrounding greens and dark woods. Just as I had set up and taken a couple of test shots the sun went in....and didn't come back out, so I waited......and I waited.....and I waited. Sun all morning up until this point. It was almost 2 hours before there was a small gap it the clouds and the sun shined through, hitting the bronze leaves helping it contrast against his big brothers behind. No more than 20 seconds and it was gone again. I went with the 70-300 lens and zoomed in for a more intimate shot. Pack up and a nice walk back to the car.
A female beautiful demoiselle (Calopteryx virgo) trying to figure out if I am a threat on a leaf near the old mill ruin at ÅvaStensjödal.
I actually think the females with their greenish bronze colouration are pretties than the blue males (like so: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/52075431168/), but I suppose they complement each other. Which do you prefer?
We found a small group of Bronzed Cowbirds during a recent visit to the Texas City Dike and spent a while watching them as they chased each other around and puffed up their heads. This individual seemed to be the dominant one, eventually chasing all the others away.

bronze Corinthian Helmet, about 500 before Christ
München, Staatliche Antikensammlungen (Collezione Nazionale di Oggetti Antichi), museo di Monaco di Baviera, Kunstareal.
Originated in ancient Greece and taking its name from the area of Corinth, the CORINTHIAN HELMET (Ancient Greek κόρυς κορινθίη, Modern κράνος κορινθιακό) was a type of bronze helmet which in its later styles covered the entire head and neck, with slits for the eyes and mouth. A large curved projection protected the nape of the neck, similar to those seen on later Roman and conquistador helmets and the German Stahlhelm.
I broke my nose last night in a soccer match so thought I better start this Monday morning off with something a bit more cheerful.
Photographed at Mud Lake, Ottawa, Ontario - home to the Mud Lake Synchronized Diving Team who have begun preparation for the 2012 Olympics (a big grin with nose a bit sore).
