This was another shot, where I have to hide myself from bird nest. She was keep coming and checking the spot for any invaders, finally I walked away when she was hovering above and came back after she left and hide behind trees and vegetation. I was merely 20 feet from the nest, thank god that I had zoom with me, otherwise it would be very difficult to keep the whole action in frame. Well, it was worth the effort!

De construction romane, son clocher étant d'ailleurs remplacé à la fin du Moyen Âge par un beffroi, elle fut détruite à l'initiative de son curé en 1894 qui n'eut de cesse de la reconstruire, dans le style « roman ». Elle a été reconstruite par l'architecte départemental Jean Gabriel Achille Rodolosse, telle que nous la connaissons actuellement, en 1897. Récemment rénovée, elle a retrouvé son éclat d'antan.
Constructed in 1894, the courthouse retains much of its original architectural detail includ- ing stained-glass skylights, decorative tilework, and even light fixtures, furniture, and telephone
booth (a la Superman). To commemorate the building’s centennial, the Auglaize
County Historical Society restored the Statue of Justice, which
formerly stood on top of the tower, but now graces the building’s lobby. You are
more than welcome to visit the courthouse during busi- ness houses—8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through
Friday--but please remember that this is a working building. Court may be in session

" The time of war is almost over, now the time to rebuild is come. Well, to build for us, since we lost everything, including our old home. We live since a month now in an old fishing village, surrounded by cliffs and mountains. Yesterday, me and the council decided to call our little town Greyhaven. And that same day, our worked finished the construction of a defensive wall. Everyone has a house now. Greyhaven is ready to expend"

Site of 2 Forts that were important to early American history :
Fort Bowyer was constructed by the U.S. Army during 1813 to guard against possible British attack. This small log and sand fortification was attack twice by the British during the War of 1812. The first attack made by four British warships and a combine force of British Royal Marines and Creek Indians came on September 15, 1814. The ensuing battle was total American victory. One warship, the H.M.S. Hermes was sunk and the marines and Creek Indians were forced to withdraw. During a second battle which took place during early February 1815, a combine British land and naval force forced the vastly outnumbered American troops to surrender the fort. By the terms of the treaty that ended the War of 1812, the British had to return Fort Bowyer to the United States. Fort Bowyer defended Mobile Point until the early 1820's.
Fort Morgan was seized by troops of the State of Alabama on January 4, 1861. Turned over to the Confederate Army in March of 1861, the fort served as the first line of defense for the city of Mobile and provided protection for blockade runners entering Mobile Bay. On the morning of August 5, 1864, Union naval forces fought their way past the Fort Morgan and defeated a Confederate naval squadron which included the C.S.S. Tennessee, one of the most powerful ironclads constructed in the South during the war. Union land forces commenced siege operations against Fort Morgan on August 9th. On the morning of August 22nd, Union artillery began one of the most intense bombardments of a single fort recorded during the Civil War. The Confederate's losses were 17 men killed. The Confederate garrison's 581 men were forced to surrender the next morning.

The Royse City Lodge #663 A.F. & A.M. (constructed circa 1925) is the most substantial and intact property in the central business district of Royse City. Designed by W.A. Kimzey, believed to be from Greenville, Texas, and constructed by J.E. Harris of Royse City, the Lodge is a handsome 2-story building that borrows architectural elements from the Mission Revival style. The property is one of the few architect designed buildings in the community and is recognized locally as a significant architectural element in the context of Royse City. The property initially served only fraternal activities of the local Masonic Lodge, but in 1936 officials of Royse City leased the first floor for the first city hall and fire & police station. Royse City purchased the first floor in 1941 and continues to use the building for those purposes.
The history of the Lodge and the City are intertwined since the very early days. At least three mayors, Newt Burton (1938-1944), Roy Cookston (1944-1950), and R.M. James (1954-1957) were members of the Lodge. Many of the towns Aldermen also have been Lodge members. The Lodge building also has a long and respected history in Royse City, Texas. Every citizen of Royse City has utilized the building for some purpose, either fraternal or political. Many of the other buildings were destroyed in a devastating fire in the 1930's and this building, in its dual role, has continued to serve the needs of every citizen of Royse City for a century. No other building has greater significance to the community or has been occupied by the original owners since its construction.
On October 28, 1994, the Royse City Masonic Lodge was recognized as eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) under criterion C for its architecture and criterion A for its social history & continued use by residents for government & political purposes at a local level. All of the information above was found on the original documents that can be viewed here:

Diss Mere Norfolk - A small lake adjacent to a park, with a walking path, fountain & fishing from the bank.
Is Diss merely a Lake or a Mere Crater? Diss Mere is a puzzling small lake found in the Market Town of Diss in Norfolk, England. How it was formed and where its water comes from,is a something of an enigma.
After surveys in 1980 it was said to be the second deepest natural lake in Britain, with about 20ft of water and more than double that of mud.
But the origin and age of this town's best known landmark has been the subject of considerable speculation, with some saying there is evidence of a channel across its bed, possibly the source of an ancient stream.
The town Diss lies in the valley of the River Waveney, round the mere.

Constructed by the Railways Department in 1897 – 1898, the intention was that the dam would provide plentiful fresh water for the locomotives that would soon be steaming along the new railway linking Kalgoorlie with Malcolm.
Coolgardie based contractors were engaged to build the dam at a tendered price of 42,000 pounds. But the government engineers had miscalculated the depth of the bedrock that would need to be blasted away in order to construct the concrete wall. The actual work ended up costing 62,000 pounds. The contractor's biggest challenge was getting a vast quantity of powdered cement to Niagara from Coolgardie where it had been railed from Perth. The distance to Niagara was some 220km and they decided that the only way to efficiently transport the cement would be by camel train.
By the time the dam was completed, it had accumulated very little water due to a lack of rainfall. To make matters worse a plentiful supply of good underground water had been located at nearby Kookynie.
In 1900 a journalist writing for the North Coolgardie Herald noted that "the fact that 60,000 pounds of good government money was swallowed up in constructing the white elephant need not distract from your enjoyment of the sight. You may console yourself with the reflection that there may be a time when the reservoir will be put to some use."
Such a time was not to come, however for over a century this oasis in the wilderness has provided a picnic, swimming and camping spot for visitors and locals alike. The dam took its name from the nearby town of Niagara, which was booming at the time of the dam's construction.
