A Canary Island endemic, closely related to the Lulworth Skipper which is quite widespread across Europe - this pristine male was spotted on a rough grassy track in the steep-sided Barranco de la Vega near Las Mercedes in the Anaga Mountains in the north east of Tenerife (0232).
On La Palma bloomed in the second half of April on many brownfields the so-called gold poppy, whose home is California.
Auf La Palma blühte in der 2. Aprilhälfte auf vielen Brachflächen der sogenannte Goldmohn, dessen Heimat Kalifornien ist.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

Canary Springs, the largest spring at Mammoth Hot Springs. Canary Spring is named for its bright yellow colors.
The white sections are the travertine forms and the orange, yellowish, and brown colors are due to the cyanobacteria living in the springs. The water flowing down the face of the terrace has created multi-colored bands of algae and cyanobacteria.
Hope your weekend is off to a wonderful start!

Pinus canariensis The Canary Island pine is capable of rising from the ashes like a phoenix. Formerly, due to its valuable tea wood, the man exploited the pine forests, but today they are mainly used for recreation.

El pino canario es capaz de resurgir de las cenizas al igual que un ave fénix. Antiguamente, debido a su valiosa madera de tea, el hombre explotó los pinares, pero hoy en día sirven principalmente para la recreación.
Taken from Surrey Quays across the Thames. Combined 10 stop and 6 stop ND filters for a 6 minute exposure. My calculations on this failed and so took a few lengthy attempts to get the exposure right!
The upper terraces at Canary Springs which is part of Mammoth Hot Springs are composed of calcium carbonate. The terraces are colored by orange, yellows and cream colored thermophilic organisms. The water for the hot springs comes from precipitation in the surrounding mountains that runs down into the subsurface. The water is heated at depth. As the water rises it dissolves limestone in the subsurface beneath Mammoth and the surrounding mountains. The hot carbonate rich water comes to the surface and forms the travertine terraces. Geologists estimate that at any given time about 10% of the water in Mammoth Hot Springs is on the surface. The other 90% remains underground.

Christmas in Cabot Square at dawn.
This wide view was made from 12 wide angle vertical photos.
I found that Photoshop made a better job of stitching the images than Lightroom.
Zoom in for details!

Well, the birds aren't, but the skies in the Canary Islands were definitely azure blue when we were there. Nothing goes quite as well with blue skies as white buildings, and in Lanzarote there isn't enough rain to make the paint look too weathered.

The Canary Islands chiffchaff (Phylloscopus canariensis) is a small leaf warbler endemic to the Canary Islands. Local residents often call it the "mosquitero" because of its active habit of hunting insects.
Appearance and Voice
This bird is roughly 10–11 cm long and resembles the common chiffchaff but has a longer bill, shorter wings, and a longer tail.
Coloration:
It features brownish-green upperparts, buffy-yellow underparts, and a prominent long eyebrow (supercilium).
Song:
Its voice is similar to the common chiffchaff but faster and more "explosive". Palmeros on La Palma sometimes call it "chivi-chivi" after its distinctive song.
Behavior and Diet
Unlike its migratory relatives, this species is sedentary, staying on the islands year-round.
Feeding:
Primarily an insectivore, it hunts by flitting through foliage or hovering to catch prey.
Nectarivory:
Unusually for a warbler, it frequently feeds on the nectar of endemic Canary plants like the Canary bellflower, acting as an important pollinator.
Habitat and Subspecies
The species occupies nearly every habitat from coastal gardens and urban parks to pine forests above 2,000 meters.
P. c. canariensis:
The "Western" subspecies, found on Gran Canaria, Tenerife, La Gomera, La Palma, and El Hierro.
P. c. exsul:
The "Eastern" subspecies (Lanzarote chiffchaff), which is now considered extinct, with no reliable records since the late 20th century.
Nesting
It breeds between January and July. The female builds an oven-shaped nest (ball-like with a side entrance) from dry grass and moss, often hidden in trees, palms, or bushes. This shape has earned it the nickname "hornero" (oven-maker) on some islands.
