A crested serpent eagle in Kaeng Krachan National Park.
Wikipedia: The crested serpent eagle (Spilornis cheela) is a medium-sized bird of prey that is found in forested habitats across tropical Asia. Within its widespread range across the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia and East Asia, there are considerable variations and some authorities prefer to treat several of its subspecies as completely separate species.
The crested serpent eagle is a reptile eater which hunts over forests, often close to wet grassland, for snakes and lizards. It has also been observed to prey on birds, amphibians, mammals, fishes, termites and large earthworms.

Warwick Bar Conservation Area covers an area of 16.2 hectares (40 acres) where the Birmingham-to-London Grand Union Canal meets the Digbeth Branch Canal.[1] It was designated such status on 25 June 1987.[2] It covers the entire length of the Digbeth Branch Canal through the Eastside area and a section of the River Rea. To the south is the Digbeth, Deritend and Bordesley High Streets Conservation Area.[1]
The conservation area includes three of the statutorily listed buildings in Birmingham, each built by the canal company in the 1840s and 1850s, and a locally listed canal warehouse built in 1935. In total, there are five listed buildings and six locally listed buildings.[1] One locally listed building, the former Co-op furniture factory works (1899) on Belmont Row was destroyed by fire on 11 January 2007 in a suspected arson attack. Seventy-five percent of the building was damaged by a fire which caused the roof to collapse and which also destroyed seven arched windows.[3] On 18 January 2007, the façade of the building, which had survived the fire albeit smoke damaged, collapsed in on itself in high winds owing to the lack of support it received after the fire had been put out. This building had been due to be redeveloped as part of the Ventureast regeneration project

I saw this plant at Tamala Park Conservation area. Not sure what it is and i suspect it may be a weed but I genuinely don't know. It was very cute and about the size of my fist.
Kampong Glam (Singapore's Muslim Quarter) features many early shophouse style architecture (c. 1840s–1900s), characterized by
narrow, two-story, low-ceilinged structures with minimal plaster ornamentation. These conserved buildings often feature five-foot ways with arched walkways, French windows with louvered shutters, and, today, are renowned for vibrant murals, colorful facades, and independent boutique shops.
These are some of the earliest, most intimate shophouses in Singapore, with many just over 4 meters wide.
Gazetted as part of the Kampong Glam Conservation Area in 1989, these buildings maintain their historical structure while being adapted for modern retail, cafes, and restaurants.

Description of the District
The Cross-Melville Heritage Conservation District is bounded by Sydenham, Melville, Cross and Victoria Streets in the former Town of Dundas, now the City of Hamilton. The district consists of 49 properties. These properties are predominantly single family dwellings with the exception of three churches.
Cultural Heritage Value of the District
According to the Cross-Melville Heritage Conservation District Study - Background Report the cultural heritage value of the district lies in its historical and associative value, design or physical value as well as the contextual value. The Background Report concludes:
“The Cross-Melville area constitutes a superb collection of buildings with particularly fine architectural attributes. Tree planted along the streets enhance the surroundings of individual buildings and provide expansive canopies over adjacent streets. Developed in the 1840s and 1850s as the first exclusively residential area distinct from the commercial and industrial locales of Dundas, this neighbourhood is associated with numerous prominent citizens, mayors and councillors, including George Rolph, William Notman, Alexis Begue and the Grafton family”.
The Conservatory Hesketh Park, Southport, England.This superb Victorian Glass building was relocated to Hesketh Park in 1878 having previously been part of a private residence in the town.In recent times it has been neglected by the local council so that quite a lot of remedial work is now needed.Thankfully funding has been obtained to restore it to its former glory.

Trinity Church Square: The Trinity Church Square was donated to the church by William Dickson Junior. Katherine Langdon Wilks of Cruickston Park, famed as one of North America’s greatest horse women at the turn of the century, planted elm trees in the square in 1885. Unfortunately they died of Dutch Elm disease in the mid-1906’s.

Vanderwater Conservation Area at 512 Vanderwater Road, Thomasburg ON is located along the banks of the Moira River. Visitors can explore a trail network consisting of 16 km that will lead them through mature forests and to the Moira River where the water cascades over a series of limestone steps.
Excerpt from www.destinationontario.com/en-ca/attractions/warsaw-caves...:
The Warsaw Caves were formed when a glacier melted at the end of the last Ice Age, approximately 12,000 years ago. The unique geography of the caves is made up of cavities in limestone, and the round caves are known as “kettles.” These spiral depressions were created when pieces of stone were swirled around into the limestone by the ancient river that used to cover the entire area.
Once the ice was gone, the river began to recede. Free from the burden of heavy ice, the ground gently rose, unveiling the breathtaking limestone caves that are now open for exploration.
Forest Fun....
Last October Karren and I went for a hike to capture some of the fabulous autumn colours. the park was ablaze with orange, red and yellow foliage on every tree.
We both absolutely love being in the middle of nature and often get a little carried away. This is Karen was just being herself, having fun , and being light hearted. it was a great day for a hike.

Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Dryobates borealis)
Francis Marion National Forest, South Carolina, U.S.A.
A Red-cockaded Woodpecker clings to a longleaf pine, momentarily pausing from his relentless drilling.
The Endangered Species Act (ESA) has played a crucial role in the survival of the Red-cockaded Woodpecker in the Southeastern United States. Since its listing as an endangered species in 1973, federal protection has facilitated active conservation efforts, including habitat restoration and management on federal lands such as national forests and military installations. I've seen firsthand the positive impact of this protection on numerous Army installations across the American Southeast. As a result of these efforts, this species has been downlisted from "endangered" to "threatened," marking a major milestone in its recovery.
