A defiant pair of poppies have survived all of the farmers efforts to remove them from the edge of his field. The last of the season I would imagine.

Despite the intermittent frosts and, yes, even the snow, this tulip is defiantly resolving the issue: Spring is here!
The feral instinct can never completely be modified in a cat born wild. I worked for an entire year getting close to this cat, then finally captured her and had her vetted. She settled happily for a few years, then went walk-about for 2 years, before returning home in 2019. My cats all have distinctly different personalities, and TinkerBell's continues to surprise and fascinate me.

This battered tree stood out with its branches held up to the misty sky while all around it is debris and fallen comrades. Taken in Hillock Wood, Buckinghamshire.
Striking a fierce pose, this Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) scans the surrounding prairie for prairie dog morsels, while ruminating on the potential fate of democracy in the country for which it serves as a symbol. This weathered dead cottonwood makes for a great perch to keep an eye on a large area, though it may not last too many more years with the ravages of decomposition and high winds.
...and distinct. What remains of a pine in a misty glade in the forest... Perhaps the end of a dream I once had...
I dread to think of the forces that twisted this poor tree to destruction. Just glad I wasn't around when it happened. Still, it's remaining shape does remind me of the statue of liberty with arm aloft! I've passed this tree numerous times and it is a swine to get in frame, but reasonably pleased with this one. Taken in Barnes's Grove, Buckinghamshire.
At a table outside a McDonald’s restaurant in Sydney’s Circular Quay, a young man leans forward in his chair puffing rebelliously on a cigar. In the background a seagull waits, its keen eyes fixed on the man, perhaps awaiting an expected opportunity.

Another of this wonderful tree but just after the colour of sunrise had faded to more subtle tones. In this one you can make out the berries clearer and they make a nice contrast with the sky. We were quite surprised that so many berries had remained untouched... mind you, it was chilly up there!
