Feldhamster (Cricetus cricetus)
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feldhamster
Gefährdung und Schutzstatus
Der Mensch raubt diesem possierlichen Tier die Lebensgrundlage. :( :( :(
In Mecklenburg-Vorpommern und Brandenburg gilt der Feldhamster mittlerweile als ausgestorben. Inzwischen gibt es Programme zur Züchtung und Auswilderung von Feldhamstern, um dem lokalen Aussterben entgegenzuwirken oder Feldhamster wieder anzusiedeln, z. B. in Nordrhein-Westfalen[43] und Baden-Württemberg.[44] Auch international gibt es Zucht- und Auswilderungsprogramme in Frankreich[45], den Niederlanden[46], Polen und der Ukraine.[47] Habitatmaßnahmen allein sind nicht ausreichend, um die dort vom Rückgang ganz besonders betroffenen Feldhamsterbestände zu stabilisieren. Landwirte können jedoch durch eine angepasste Bewirtschaftung, Ernteverzicht sowie eine verzögerte Ernte[36] die Bedingungen für den Feldhamster erheblich verbessern und so das Tempo des Rückganges deutlich drosseln. Auch andere gefährdete Arten der heimischen Kulturlandschaft wie Rebhuhn, Feldlerche oder Feldhase, profitieren davon.[48] In Thüringen, Sachsen-Anhalt, Niedersachsen, Hessen und Rheinland-Pfalz fördert die Bundesregierung das Verbundprojekt Feldhamsterland zum Schutz des Feldhamsters,[49] das von der Deutschen Wildtier Stiftung koordiniert wird.

European hamster
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_hamster
The European hamster (Cricetus cricetus), also known as the Eurasian hamster, black-bellied hamster or common hamster, is the only species of the genus Cricetus. It is native to grassland and similar habitats in a large part of Eurasia, extending from Belgium to the Altai mountains and Yenisey River in Russia. Historically, it was considered a farmland pest and had been trapped for its fur. Its population has declined drastically in recent years and is now considered critically endangered.
Distribution and conservation status
In 2020, the European hamster was classified as critically endangered across its global range on the IUCN Red List. The reasons for its drastic decline are not fully understood. It has been linked especially to habitat loss due to intensive agricultural practices and the building of roads that fragment populations, and to climate change, the historical fur trapping and to pollution; even light pollution appears to significantly reduce local populations, unless counterbalanced by other factors.

Classified as historical monuments in 1905, the fountain in the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville was partly decorated by the famous Aix sculptor Jean-Pancrace Chastel; and the polygonal basin was designed by Georges Vallon.
Built in 1756, it supports a Roman column which comes from the ruins of the count's palace. Classical in style, it has a hard stone basin with four recessed sides and marble slabs engraved in Latin to the glory of King Louis XV, the Duke of Villars who was governor, the President of the Welsh Parliament of the Tower... A reminder that it was the Romans who brought water to Aix. The plaque facing the Town Hall is replaced with each new regime of the municipality. The pedestal is made of Calissanne and Bibemus stones. And the four macaroons through which the water flows symbolize hygiene after the plague of 1720. Its water comes from the Pinchinats spring, via the Roman aqueduct.
During the Revolution, in 1789, the city was organized into districts from this fountain.

We had just walked a trail without seeing or photographing anything.
As we were returning to the car, suddenly a group of these beautiful parrots appeared. They spent some time feeding in the grass and then disappeared.
Uncommon and classified as Vulnerable.

Killdeer are classified with plovers, "shore birds". Kildeer, however, are not often seen at a shoreline. In fact, most of the Kildeer I have seen have been in grassy fields, and sometimes in parking lots. This one was seen in the mudflats at Lake St Clair Metropark, just where a plover "should be." :-)
No, they don't "kill deer". Like many birds, their name reflects the Killdeer's high-pitched call: "Kide-deer".

Although classified as poisonous, reports of human deaths resulting from its ingestion are extremely rare. After parboiling—which weakens its toxicity and breaks down the mushroom's psychoactive substances—it is eaten in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. Amanita muscaria is noted for its hallucinogenic properties, with its main psychoactive constituent being the compound muscimol. The mushroom was used as an intoxicant and entheogen by the peoples of Siberia, and has a religious significance in these cultures. There has been much speculation on possible traditional use of this mushroom as an intoxicant in other places such as the Middle East, Eurasia, North America, and Scandinavia.

“We have all some experience of a feeling, that comes over us occasionally, of what we are saying and doing having been said and done before, in a remote time—of our having been surrounded, dim ages ago, by the same faces, objects, and circumstances—of our knowing perfectly what will be said next, as if we suddenly remember it!”

In Ukraine, the red oak is classified as an alien (invasive) tree species that is prohibited from being planted for forest restoration. Having no natural enemies, it is able to change or destroy entire ecosystems.
Дуб червоний (Quercus rubra) , синонім дуб північний (Quercus borealis) — дерево родини букових (до 30–35 м заввишки) з густою, широкояйцюватою кроною, міцними гілками і товстим прямим стовбуром.
В Україні дуб червоний віднесено до чужорідних (інвазійних) видів дерев, які заборонено садити для відновлення лісів. Не маючи природних ворогів, він здатний змінити або знищити цілі екосистеми.
«Листя червоного дуба дуже міцне і в українських грунтах немає бактерій, які б його швидко розкладали. Через шар листя під деревами погано ростуть лісові трави (особливо первоцвіти). Коріння червоного дуба змінює кислотність і склад ґрунтів і це також негативно позначається на лісових екосистемах. Він виділяє алелопатично активні сполуки, які шкодять іншим видам. Це своєрідний спосіб захисту своєї території. Червоний дуб не їдять комахи і це дає йому перевагу у конкуренції з аборигенним дубом. Крім того, опале листя з цих дубів розкладається так, що абсолютно змінює хімічний склад ґрунту: там інше співвідношення карбону, кальцію, фосфору. Воно може лежати кілька років густою масою. А коли є волога, то ще й утворює кірку. Тому в таких місцях насіння інших рослин або не може потрапити в ґрунт, аби прорости, або проростає погано
В результаті червоний дуб витісняє наш дуб – головного годувальника лісу. Під червоним дубом не ростуть жодні гриби тоді як під аборигенним дубом і в сімбіозі з ним ростуть сотні видів грибів. Агресивний прибулець стрімко поширюеться самосівом.
Граничний вік такого дерева – близько 400 років, тоді як звичайні ростуть і понад тисячу.»

The bryony-leaved tree-mallow, now classified under the genus Malva but formerly Lavatera (for an explanation see the text here flic.kr/p/2qBm6LN ), is native to much of Greece, to Cyprus, and to the Asian parts of the Mediterranean basin. The species can be found from sea level up to about 1,000 m or 3,500 ft in disturbed ground like cultivated or fallow land, on sites of recent fires, in olive groves, and on river banks.
The bryony-leaved tree-mallow's common name is due to the fact that, like all tree-mallows, it grows on a trunk like stem and can attain a height of up to 3 meters or about 10 feet, while its leaves, like the otherwise unrelated bryony's, have triangular lobes. Those same leaves, one is clearly visible just below the flower, have reminded others of claws. This impression provides the basis of the specific epithet unguiculata. Unguiculate, from the Latin unguiculus, means claw- or nail-shaped.

Marsh Tit - Poecile palustris
Globally, the marsh tit is classified as Least Concern, although there is evidence of a decline in numbers (in the UK, numbers have dropped by more than 50% since the 1970s, for example). It can be found throughout temperate Europe and northern Asia and, despite its name, it occurs in a range of habitats including dry woodland. The marsh tit is omnivorous; its food includes caterpillars, spiders and seeds. It nests in tree holes, choosing existing hollows to enlarge, rather than excavating its own. A clutch of 5–9 eggs is laid.
Marsh and willow tits are difficult to identify on appearance alone; the races occurring in the UK and are especially hard to separate. When caught for ringing, the pale 'cutting edge' of the marsh tit's bill is a reliable criterion; otherwise, the best way to tell apart the two species is by voice. Plumage characteristics include the lack of a pale wing panel (formed by pale edges to the secondary feathers in the willow tit), the marsh tit's glossier black cap and smaller black 'bib', although none of these is 'completely reliable'; for example, juvenile marsh tits can show a pale wing panel. The marsh tit has a noticeably smaller and shorter head than the willow tit and overall the markings are crisp and neat, with the head in proportion to the rest of the bird (willow tit gives the impression of being 'bull-necked').
A measure of the difficulty in identification is given by the fact that, in the UK, the willow tit was not identified as distinct from marsh tit until 1897. Two German ornithologists, Ernst Hartert and Otto Kleinschmidt, were studying marsh tit skins at the British Museum and found two wrongly-labelled willow tits amongst them (two willow tit specimens were then collected at Coalfall Wood in Finchley, north London, and that species was added to the British list in 1900).
La roche de Solutré est un escarpement calcaire surplombant la commune de Solutré-Pouilly, à 8 km à l'ouest de Mâcon.
Protégée au titre de la loi sur les sites classés et aujourd'hui Grand Site de France, elle tire sa célébrité de plusieurs points d'intérêt : phénomène géologique rare dans cette région et site préhistorique éponyme d'une culture paléolithique (le Solutréen).
Occupée par l'homme depuis au moins 55 000 ans.
Solutré rock is a limestone escarpment overlooking the town of Solutré-Pouilly, 8 km west of Mâcon.

Ninja / Intelligence
Classified Series Jinx is an alright figure. I did remove the unnecessary tattoo sleeve, and I swapped out her sword for the swords and backpack that was included with Quick Kick. I don't understand why Hasbro seemed to have swapped their swords around. I did have to repaint these swords, as the silver paint that was on them began to rub off way too easily. I think they look much better now.
I'm sure it does spread, but I haven't seen any in the wild lands surrounding our home.
Rugosa Rose is a dense shrub that grows up to 2.5 m tall. Its stem is robust, with abundant thorns of all sizes. Twigs are covered in fine hairs, and have 5–7 oval-shaped, toothed leaflets. Flowers are dark pink to white, 6–9 cm wide, strong-scented, and blooming in summer. Rosehips are large, smooth, dark red and 2–2.5 cm in diameter.
Habitat & Impact
Rugosa Rose grows in sandy coastal areas and ditches. It spreads mainly by its roots, but can also be moved long distances by mammals and birds, or by old hips floating in seawater. Once established, very few – if any – native species can compete with Rugosa Rose. It threatens biodiversity and ecosystem function in many areas of Nova Scotia.
Pathway
Rugosa Rose was brought to northeastern North America as an ornamental plant in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Musa acuminata is classified by botanists as an herbaceous plant and an evergreen and a perennial, but not as a tree.
Both male and female flowers are present in a single inflorescence. Female flowers are located near the base (and develop into fruit), and the male flowers located at the tipmost top-shaped bud in between leathery bracts.
The rather slender fruits are berries, the size of each depends on the number of seeds they contain. Each fruit can have 15 to 62 seeds.
