I was hesitant to post this as it was so far and such a big crop, but it really displays the agility and gymnastic abilities of the peregrines. Dad is flying upside down like its nothing and seems to be looking at the camera to make sure we got it. The neighborhood is in the background.
Fathers carve the path with steady hand,
Guiding family through life's shifting sand.
With love and strength, they light the way,
Building bonds that never fray.
The handsome father of the first White Stork chics to be born in Britain for over 600 years...I think he looks quite proud!❤️☺️
For a few weeks a year you can't go anywhere around here without having dozens of these guys just within a foot or two. When I am lucky I can get a decent shot or two off.

Another beautiful view just outside the park. This image is a tribute to my wonderful father who passed away at the age of 92 in 2009.
In the afternoon after visiting Zion National Park, I took a Zion Outback Safaris trip outside the park. The 3-hour “Mesa Vista” Safari followed North Creek toward the Kolob Terrace, then explored Smith Mesa. Smith Mesa was 'open range'. The area provided spectacular panoramas which stretched from West Temple to the Kolob Fingers at the northern end of the park.
Happy Father's Day. My dad's wedding ring and stationery--probably 80 years old from the USS Texas, which he served on. In the background is a pin from TWA, where he worked and also a pocket watch of my father-in-laws. Both have passed, both remembered this week.
At day I ran past this tree within the Dutch heather season (soon coming up again) with my good friend and running mate and made a plan to return in the evening.
Although light pollution is material at this location, I think it turned out really well. Especially as he brought his son and kind of demonstrates how he guides his kid in life.
Many thanks for your comments, I'm curious what your thoughts are.
I want to thank each and every one of you for all of the favs, wonderful comments, and group invites!
Father Time is a mythical figure that has been present in many cultures throughout the ages. He is known as the personification of time, and is usually depicted as an elderly bearded man, dressed in a robe, carrying an hourglass representing time’s constant movement. In recent centuries, Father Time is often depicted as an elderly bearded man, sometimes with wings, dressed in a robe and carrying a scythe and an hourglass or other timekeeping device.
The origins of Father Time are curious, and partially originated from agricultural society and mythology in ancient Greece. The ancient Greek word for time was chronos, and the Greeks had a titan of agriculture named Cronos. Cronos, as a god of agriculture, had the notable attribute of a harvester’s scythe or sickle. In some countries, Father Time is known as Pakiž, and is even referred to as the personification of time.
Over time, the concept of Father Time evolved and became associated with the passing of years and the end of one year and beginning of another. In some cultures, Father Time is seen as a symbol of the old year, while Baby New Year represents the new year.{Mythical Creature Blog}
For Macro Mondays and this week's theme: "Father." This is a pocket watch that was owned by my grandfather. It's 100 years old, and still works. My father used it briefly, and then passed it on to me.
the grave of father Glasan is a highly isolated historic grave located in the townland of stragrady Termon ,county donegal. Father Glasan was hunted down through the remote mountains his pursuers cornered him in the rugged, boggy terrain of the Termon Hills at Stragrady, they struck him down violently. Local oral history states that he was killed by a blow to the head with a large stone.
Because his death occurred during Ireland's historical Penal Era—a time when Catholic priests were outlawed, hunted, and forced to perform mass in secret he was buried directly where he fell. While the British military (Redcoats) actively hunted priests during that era, local oral tradition firmly blames a group of local sectarian men or highwaymen rather than British soldiers.
Folklore suggests he was ambushed and stoned to death by local adversaries who opposed his secret Catholic ministry in the area. However, because it happened during the Penal Era, British authorities would not have investigated or punished the killers, as Catholic priests were considered outlaws by the Crown, As a hunted Catholic priest, he survived by moving constantly between the remote hills of Stragrady and the wider parish of Termon. He relied entirely on the local Catholic peasantry, who risked their lives to shelter him in safe houses, barns, or hidden caves. The area where he operated is highly symbolic. The name Termon comes from the Irish word An Tearmann, which translates to "place of sanctuary". Historically, this region was a recognized territory of refuge, making its isolated, rocky hills the ideal terrain for a priest to hide from the authorities. Local tradition places his ministry and death firmly during the height of the Penal Laws, which spans from the late 1600s through the mid-1700s (roughly between 1695 and 1750). This was the period when priests faced active persecution, bounties, and violent crackdowns in Ireland.
1st october is saint glasan feast day which is written on the small plaque beneath the cross erected by father boyce P.P in 1941
The £4,675 'Father Willis' organ above the choir screen in Lincoln Cathedral, England, was originally dedicated on St Hugh's Day, 17 November 1898, before a congregation of 4700 people. It was to be the first British cathedral organ to be blown by electricity, but at the time of its inauguration, Lincoln's power station had not yet entered service, so it was pumped manually by soldiers of the Lincolnshire Regiment.
No changes were made to the organ until 1960, when Harrison and Harrison carried out a complete rebuild at a cost of £14,000. Six new registers were added, but the Willis pipework was left unaltered. The action and blowing equipment were renewed, and a new console provided. A further restoration was undertaken by the same firm in 1998, and the organ was rededicated on 20 November, just over a century after it was first played in public.
The superbly carved limestone choir screen, shown bottom right, dates from 1330. It is a marvellous example of Decorated Gothic architecture with crocketed pinnacles and arches with tiny carved animal heads. On the pillars are small carvings of saints. The Puritans knocked the heads off the statues but they were recarved by the Victorians who added bishops' heads. The walls of the screen are covered with carvings of leaves and flowers. Traces of red and blue medieval paint can still be seen on them. In the centre of the screen is a wrought iron metal gate which is used by the choir before a service.
Above the organ, you can see directly up the inside the central tower, which appears as the dark diamond shape just above left of centre in the image. Although the building of the cathedral started in 1072, the current central tower dates from the 13th century following the collapse of the original tower in 1237. Between 1307 and 1311 the central tower was raised to its present height of 271 feet (83 m). At this time, a tall lead-encased wooden spire topped the tower but this was blown down in a storm in 1548. With its spire, the tower reputedly reached a height of 525 feet (160 m) which would have made it the world's tallest structure at the time, surpassing the Great Pyramid of Giza, which had held the record for almost 4,000 years.
