Your comments means so much and thank you for that,
I have some people that fave my photo with no comment,
I am afraid that does not mean anything to me,
I can understand if they are busy but I see them commenting on others,
so that leaves me to believe they kinda feel sorry for poor Steve:-)))
Have a great Sunday friends!
I thank you for all the comments! Here, for you, are the Favorite shots from my stream. Thanks again!
This looks nice: Large on Black
I had a very nice day on the day I visited Putrajaya. It could have been hotter there, but I don't know how. The best part was the cool shower afterwards.
Putrajaya is the new capital area Kuala Lumpur. It is the most sterile and lifeless place I have ever visited. But there is very nice architecture for photography... so I guess it's not all bad.
Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
Whistling Kite - has a nest and mate nearby
Scientific Name: Haliastur sphenurus
Description: The Whistling Kite is a medium-sized raptor (bird of prey) with a shaggy appearance. It has a light brown head and underparts, with pale streaks, and dark sandy-brown wings with paler undersides. The underwings have a characteristic pale 'M' shape when open. The head and body are relatively narrow and the tail is rounded. The wings are long and well-rounded, with a wingspan of 120 cm to 145 cm. The sexes are similar, but the females are larger. Yong birds are slightly darker above, with paler streaking on head and underbody. They are often seen near water or around farms, soaring in a lazy circling flight pattern.
Similar species: Several other raptors may be confused with the Whistling Kite, including the Little Eagle, Hieraaetus morphnoides, other kites and harriers. These can only be separated by factors such as flight silhouette and style and the overall body shape.
Distribution: The Whistling Kite is widespread over mainland Australia but uncommon in Tasmania, and is also found in New Guinea, the Solomons and New Caledonia.
Habitat: The Whistling Kite is found in woodlands, open country and particularly wetlands. It is also common around farmland, vineyards and anywhere where carrion (dead animals) can be found (e.g. abattoirs, rubbish dumps and roadsides). Prefers tall trees for nesting.
Feeding: Whistling Kites soar above the ground, trees and water to search for prey such as carrion (dead animals) and small live animals such as mammals, birds, fish and insects.
Breeding: The Whistling Kite appears to be monogamous, with some breeding pairs remaining in a territory throughout the year and pairs actively defend the area around a nest. The bulky nest platform is built of sticks in a tall tree and may be reused, growing larger over time. Both sexes build the nest and incubate the eggs (the female does most of the incubation however) and may breed two or three times a year. The young stay with the parents after fledging for about six to eight weeks.
Calls: Loud descending whistle: 'teee-ti-ti'.
Minimum Size: 50cm
Maximum Size: 60cm
Average size: 55cm
Average weight: 770g
Breeding season: July to January in south; March to October in north.
Clutch Size: One to three, usually two.
Incubation: 38 days
Nestling Period: 46 days

(Comments and Notes welcome)
(current Alt-Timeline up to this point posted on a previous weapon)
Automobile companies contributing to the war effort by aiding in weapons manufacture was not a new thing. Nevertheless, Continental Motors surprised American news agencies when it announced in 1983 that it would be submitting a design for upcoming military weapons trials.
The Mark 1 received much criticism, many papers commented that Continental had gone about building a gun like it was a motor, more fit to be strapped to four wheels then held by two hands. A military officer commented, "I thought we gave our soldiers guns, not clubs." Yet despite the Mark 1's heavy, bulky shape, it proved itself well in the trials. It was certainly not as pretty as the Browning P69, the other front runner of the trials, nor did it have the propaganda appeal of the Browning, but the heavy weight and muzzle device allowed the Continental machine pistol to be easily controlled at a fire rate far higher than the competition.
Cheap to manufacture, high fire rate, and great control made it a serious contender. Ultimately, money would do the talking, and the Army selected the Mark 1 over the far more expensive P69. The Continental Motors Mark 1 would go into service in 1984, as hostilities began to break out once more.
were comments not working the last time? if they are working maybe someone could comment but I'm not begging for them haha
literally I can't stop smiling it's like someone shot me with a smiling arrow and I don't know I'm just... I haven't seen myself this happy in forever and I don't even think I've ever been this happy but it's amazing I LOVE being this happy I just can't even breathe anymore ever since yesterday.
these are the pro's of being fearless.

Rainbow Bee-eater
Scientific Name: Merops ornatus
The Rainbow Bee-Eater is a spectacular bird. With its green, blue, chestnut and yellow plumage, its slim build, slender curved bill and distinctive streamers that extend from the end of its tail, it is simply beautiful. Bee-Eaters are a familiar sight in many lightly-timbered parts of mainland Australia, where they often perch on fence-posts or overhead wires, then launch after flying insects, flying swiftly, sometimes with rapid twists and turns, before snapping the insect in its bill, and returning to the perch to eat it. Research featured in the 'State of Australia's Birds 2015' headline and regional reports shows a marked decline for the Rainbow Bee-eater (and some other aerial insectivories) in the East Coast region, where reporting rates for this species have dropped by over 50% in the since 2001.
Description: A striking, colourful bird, the Rainbow Bee-eater is medium sized, with a long slim curved bill and a long tail with distinctive tail-streamers. It has a golden crown and a red eye set in a wide black stripe from the base of the bill to the ears, which is edged with a thin blue line. The throat is orange-yellow, with a broad black band separating it from a green breast. The upperparts are green, with the flight feathers coppery and black tipped. The underwings are bright orange, with a black edge. The lower abdomen is blue. The tail is black, including the long tail streamers, with a blue tinge. Females have shorter, thicker tail streamers than males, but are otherwise similar. Young birds are duller and greener, lacking the black band on the chest and the long tail streamers.
Similar Species: The Rainbow Bee-eater may resemble some kingfishers, however these are plumper, with strong straight beaks, and never catch prey in flight.
Distribution: The Rainbow Bee-eater is found throughout mainland Australia, as well as eastern Indonesia, New Guinea and, rarely, the Solomon Islands. In Australia it is widespread, except in desert areas, and breeds throughout most of its range, although southern birds move north to winter over.
Habitat: The Rainbow Bee-eater is most often found in open forests, woodlands and shrublands, and cleared areas, usually near water. It will be found on farmland with remnant vegetation and in orchards and vineyards. It will use disturbed sites such as quarries, cuttings and mines to build its nesting tunnels.
Feeding: Rainbow Bee-eaters eat insects, mainly catching bees and wasps, as well as dragonflies, beetles, butterflies and moths. They catch flying insects on the wing and carry them back to a perch to beat them against it before swallowing them. Bees and wasps are rubbed against the perch to remove the stings and venom glands.
Breeding: Rainbow Bee-eaters gather in small flocks before returning to summer breeding areas after over-wintering in the north (apart from the resident northern populations). Both males and females select a suitable nesting site in a sandy bank and dig a long tunnel (average length: 89.4 cm) leading to a nesting chamber, which is often lined with grasses. Both parents incubate the eggs and both feed the young, sometimes with the assistance of auxiliaries (helpers).

Earlier today a friend made a comment about an old post back in 2011 and the subject of kumquats got a mention.
Coincidentally, I just penned a wee story about the same subject
Kumquats are one of my faved fruits. They are occasionally found in better supermarkets £14-£19 per kg. When I see them I normally resist the temptation.
A few days ago, I was passing by a small supermarket that is so close to me that I can see it from my balcony. It's run and owned by people from a number of middle eastern countries and their products, apart from staples and fruit and veg, reflects that - which is why I shop there quite often.
On the said occasion, I see on the pavement (where fresh fruit and veg are displayed) a box with a quantity of Kumquats. Oh, I exclaimed you have these? Why, one of the more senior staff (with whom I am in nodding acquaintanceship ) asks me? Well, I love them, says I. He fetched a small bag emptied all the fruit into it and presented it to me - no charge. I was well chaffed!
