CIRCLES OF LIFE
Everything
Turns,
Rotates,
Spins,
Circles,
Loops,
Pulsates,
Resonates,
And
Repeats.
Circles
Of life,
Born from
Pulses
Of light,
Vibrate
To
Breathe,
While
Spiraling
Outwards
For
Infinity
Through
The lens
Of time,
And into
A sea
Of stars
And
Lucid
Dreams.
Poem ― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun
This photo is part of probably the most strange and in retrospect the most agonizing behavior that we have ever seen in a predator.
It had rained that morning and the safari had been very uneventful.
Suddenly our guide heard nagging and shouting from monkeys in the bush.
Quickly the cause of the theater was identified:
this leopard had authorized a vervet monkey baby, probably the mother had "lost" it in the excitement - vervet monkeys carry their offspring under their bellies, the babys cling to their mother.
Instead of killing the baby quickly, the cat played with him.
The cat occasionally let go of the little one, only to bully him again a short time later. She bit down just so hard that the monkey was not hurt. She took it in her mouth, as if she were transporting her own offspring.
The cat apparently used the tiny one as bait in the intention that one of the adults would become careless and start a "rescue operation".
We watched this spectacle for 30 minutes. None of the monkeys got cocky and we left the "crime scene", because we had to our bushflight.
The cat had not killed the monkey until then.

Happy Macro Monday.

My husband has enjoyed MacroMondays for as many years as I have. He asks the theme and then heads for his computer man cave or garage work space and brings me little tools.
This is a grouping of something called round stock in metric sizes with a twine wrap to keep them together. When in a tight circle they measure about 1 inch/ 2.54cm, but I couldn't quite figure out how to stand them to capture that tight circle. Someday...
Many thanks for looking and for commenting!
See size in first comment.
Note: the tree planters have arrived! More trees; back in a moment.

Back home from the travel, a bit long this time, three different time zones; two countries; winter and summer alternative; mountains and lakes; bears and deers; out of civilizations and modern conference; what else? ...... I could stay lost in this moment forever...
The Hurlers stone circles are a group of 3 stone circles on Bodmin `Moor, Cornwall.
The name "Hurlers" derives from a legend, in which men were playing Cornish hurling on a Sunday and were magically transformed into stones as punishment.
Macro Mondays - Circles. For those old enough to remember the game KerPlunk. The circles are from the holes in the center of the game where the sticks are placed to hold the marbles. I put a piece of colored cloth behind the holes to give it some pizzaz.

Original photo taken at the Birthplace of Route 66 festival in August. It is always such a fun event, so I decided to make it even “funner” as my students used to say! Enjoy!
Und die Seele, unbewacht,
will in freien Flügen schweben,
um im Zauberkreis der Nacht
tief und tausendfach zu Leben.
And the unguarded soul
wants to float in freest flight
to live deep and a thousandfold
in the magic circle of the night.
