Three greylag geese in tight formation above the Ismaninger Speichersee, east basin.
The Ismaninger Speichersee is a reservoir in the north of Munich, built in 1929 to regulate the water flow for the run-of-the-river power plants along the Isar Canal.
The reservoir and the adjacent fish ponds are a nature reserve (Europareservat) and an Important Bird Area (IBA).

The Preto river, which rises at the base of Pico do Cristal, forms the Farofa, Sete Pilões and Aurélio waterfalls, on the Minas side.
The Sete Pilões waterfall is close to the Macieira camp and can be accessed by a 210 m / 689 ft long trail. Along its route, there are several practically circular wells with bluish water, which resemble pylons.
Camping at 1,860 m / 6,102 ft of altitude and that can be reached by 3,3 km / 2,05 miles of roads from the entrance of Pedra Menina (Espírito Santo State), being close to the São Domingos River.

The two forms of black-tailed deer that occupy coastal woodlands in the Pacific Northwest of North America are subspecies of the mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus). They have sometimes been treated as a species, but virtually all recent authorities maintain they are subspecies. The Columbian black-tailed deer is found in western North America, from Northern California into the Pacific Northwest of the United States and coastal British Columbia in Canada. The Sitka deer is found coastally in British Columbia, southeast Alaska, and southcentral Alaska (as far as Kodiak Island).
These two subspecies thrive on the edge of the forest, as the dark forest lacks the underbrush and grasslands the deer prefer as food, and completely open areas lack the hiding spots and cover they prefer for harsh weather. One of the plants that black-tailed deer browse is western poison oak, despite its irritant content. This deer often is most active at dawn and dusk, and is frequently involved in collisions with automobiles. (Wikipedia)
This is the Columbian sub-species. Based on maps of sightings in iNaturalist, the Sitka sub-species is not found on Vancouver Island.
There were three deer roaming the parking lot at our hotel. They then just ambled across the road to the flower beds on the other side, totally oblivious to the traffic. Thankfully, no collisions ensured.

Bicycles
Although I don’t ride a bike, well not at least for 40 odd years, there is something satisfying about a bike. It’s solid, reliable (mainly), an art form, it has a place in our society, an environmental champion, a pleasure and a serious competitor.
There aren’t many things in life that fulfil those criteria, there will always be those detractors but for me the bike is a hero.

Female Albino Sulphur - my insect book says the females can be greenish white and males are yellow; this one was white when the wings were open with beautiful color on the edges. Females sometimes exhibit a white form known as 'Alba'.

Großer Brachvogel (Numenius arquata) - (eurasion) curlew
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fer_Brachvogel
Der Große Brachvogel (Numenius arquata) ist eine Vogelart aus der Familie der Schnepfenvögel (Scolopacidae). Es werden zwei Unterarten unterschieden. Die Nominatform ist in Mitteleuropa ein zunehmend seltener Brut- und Sommervogel. Die Rote Liste der Brutvögel Deutschlands von 2015 führt die Art in der Kategorie 1 als vom Aussterben bedroht.[1] Er ist während der Zugzeiten ein regelmäßiger Durchzügler und Rastvogel, der gebietsweise auch überwintert.[2]
In Deutschland war der Große Brachvogel im Jahre 1982 Vogel des Jahres.
Beschreibung
Der Große Brachvogel ist etwa 50 bis 60 cm lang und wiegt zwischen 600 und 1000 Gramm. Die Flügelspannweite beträgt 80 bis 100 cm. Die Vögel sind die größten Watvögel, und sie sind in Europa die häufigsten Vertreter der Brachvögel. Charakteristisches Kennzeichen des Großen Brachvogels ist der lange und stark nach unten gekrümmte Schnabel. Das Weibchen ist etwas größer als das Männchen und hat einen deutlich stärker gebogenen und längeren Schnabel. Ansonsten sehen die Geschlechter gleich aus.
Große Brachvögel sind eher unscheinbar gefärbt. Der Kopf, der Hals, die Brust die Körperoberseite sind fahl beigebraun mit dunklen Streifen und Flecken. Die Wangen sind dunkel gestrichelt und kontrastieren dadurch mit dem hellen Kinn- und Kehlfleck. Die Brust ist etwas kräftiger gestreift und wird zum Bauch hin heller. Im Flug wird der weiße Bürzel sichtbar, der mit dem weißen Rücken einen weißen Keil bildet.
Eurasian curlew
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_curlew
The Eurasian curlew or common curlew (Numenius arquata) is a wader in the large family Scolopacidae. It is one of the most widespread of the curlews, breeding across temperate Europe and Asia. In Europe, this species is often referred to just as the "curlew", and in Scotland known as the "whaup" in Scots.
This is the largest wader in its range, at 50–60 cm (20–24 in) in length, with an 89–106 cm (35–42 in) wingspan and a body weight of 410–1,360 g (0.90–3.00 lb).[2] It is mainly greyish brown, with a white back, greyish-blue legs and a very long curved bill. Males and females look identical, but the bill is longest in the adult female. It is generally not possible to recognize the sex of a single Eurasian curlew, or even several ones, as there is much variation; telling male and female of a mated pair apart is usually possible however.
The familiar call is a loud curloo-oo.
The only similar species over most of the curlew's range is the whimbrel (N. phaeopus). The whimbrel is smaller and has a shorter bill with a kink rather than a smooth curve. Flying curlews may also resemble bar-tailed godwits (Limosa lapponica) in their winter plumages; however, the latter have a smaller body, a slightly upturned beak, and legs that do not reach far beyond their tail tips. The Eurasian curlew's feet are longer, forming a conspicuous "point".
The curlew exists as a migratory species over most of its range, wintering in Africa, southern Europe and south Asia. Occasionally a vagrant individual reaches places far from its normal range, such as Nova Scotia[3] and the Marianas.[4][5] It is present all year in the milder climates of Ireland and the United Kingdom and its adjacent European coasts.
So many forces act to provide these forms and lines – geologic upthrust and erosive carving, where the light falls and how the winds prevail, patterns of moisture and light that determine the growth of trees and shrubs. In the Wasatch Mountains, near Salt Lake City.
Le site aurait été aménagé dès le XIIème siècle.
Le château se présente sous la forme d'une enceinte rectangulaire de 60 m de long sur 25 m de large, et d'un donjon carré, qui occupe la partie la plus élevée de la falaise, à l'à-pic. Une seconde enceinte englobe l'ensemble délimitant un espace de 165 m le long de la falaise, sur 45 à 65 m de large. Un fossé taillé dans le roc en retour jusqu'au bord de la falaise, isole le tout de l'arrière pays3.
Au XIIIème et XIVème siècles, le château se compose d'une basse-cour dont le bourg de Montferrand est en prolongement, protégé par un pont-levis dominant des fossés. Une douzaine de familles des sujets du seigneur y résident. C'est dans le château que les sires de Montferrand reçoivent l’hommage de ceux de Thoraise, Torpes et Corcondray, tous les parents de la maison Montferrand. Pour autant, les seigneurs n'y résident pas à l'année : ils habitent Besançon.
L'enceinte du château constituée par une muraille où se dresse encore aujourd'hui le donjon, est alors habitée par un châtelain, un procureur, un receveur, un notaire et une douzaine d'hommes d'armes. En temps de conflit, les hommes d'armes sont secondés par tous les sujets de la seigneurie qui sont tenus de s’y réfugier avec leurs familles et leurs biens, et d’y faire à tour de rôle le guet et la garde de jour comme de nuit pour le moment venu ainsi que de prêter main-forte aux premiers.
En 1654, une visite du château donne une description détaillée des lieux :
le petit bourg composé alors d'une vingtaine de maisons réparties de part et d’autre d’une rue centrale est totalement brûlé sauf une habitation ;
le second bourg compte la grange du seigneur et le four, lui aussi brûlé ;
au château à proprement parler, le donjon ainsi que le logement sont également brûlés, seule la chapelle du milieu est dans un état de conservation convenable.

Sui monti che circondano la conca d'Alpago è scesa la prima neve. E' una neve tardoautunnale; sono veli leggeri ed effimeri che avranno beve durata. Eppure essi rivestono la montagna di fascino e ne alleggeriscono l'immagine cupa e massiccia. Grazie ai primi veli di vene, infatti, la montagna rivela tutta se stessa, tutte le sue asperità, le sue forme, i suoi anfratti. Come una signora che offre d'improvviso tutta la sua bellezza ..... ..

View form Trail Ridge Road (highest continuous paved road in the US reaching elevation of 12,183 feet), Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado. Driving on this road is little nerve wrecking, but in the end rewarded by breathtaking scenery. Changing elevation takes you from tree lines to alpine tundra which has very fragile ecosystem. Weather up top is ever changing and highly unpredictable.

Das Efeublättrige Ehrenpreis hat hellere, lila gefärbte Blütenblätter mit markanter dunkler Aderung. Die Blattorgane erinnern in der Form an Efeublätter. Beide Pflanzen blühen etwa zur gleichen Zeit im Frühling. Dieses Exemplar war fotografisch schwer zugänglich. Deshalb musste ein Freihandstack durchgeführt werden, der zum Glück erfolgreich war.
En el interior de la Catedral destaca el magnífico retablo de la capilla mayor, tallado en piedra de Ançã. Siguiendo la forma semicircular del ábside, se desarrolla en cuatro registros jerárquicos: en primer lugar, los Apóstoles; en segundo, Moisés, Ezequiel, Elías y Daniel, la Anunciación y la Natividad; en tercero, la Virgen de la Asunción; y, por último, escenas de la Pasión de Cristo. Es una obra de arte renacentista compuesta por más de cien figuras talladas creadas en el taller de João de Ruão.
