Views of Nature seen this weekend, Primrose with guest, Agapanthas, a small pond, and a very large and fungus filled Fig tree.
My Mum was very proud of a ripe fig in her garden and asked me to come round and take a photo. Armed with my camera, we went to visit and I asked which one she wanted a picture of. My Dad was looking pretty sorry for himself.
"Ah well" she said, " I showed the ripe fig to your Father and he said "Oh yes, that's ready" and duly pulled it off the tree!
So here we have a pic of the ones that were still left, ready for picking soon!
The Malabar grey hornbill (Ocyceros griseus) is a hornbill endemic to the Western Ghats and associated hills of southern India. They have a large beak but lack the casque that is prominent in some other hornbill species. They are found mainly in dense forest. They move around in small groups, feeding on figs and other forest fruits. Their loud cackling and laughing call makes them familiar to people living in the region.
The fig leaves are popping open on the fig tree in the car park. Looks good on blue.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
Aerial sunrise over the channel with scattered clouds at Woy Woy on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
The big tree will have hundreds of them. Every creature in the area will enjoy them.
I think the raccoons broke some of the limbs last year trying to climb the tree.
Giant fig trees tower over the little footbridge.

A walk along the waterfront in Trapani through the boulevard of fig trees has a beautiful feel of calmness and safety adding to the smell of home made cooking from the few street vendors en route.
Trapani. Sicily. Italy.
Extensive damage from the frost. The entire tree looks like this. Figs grow from "new cane". I wonder where the new growth will appear. I'll post a "before image" below.
The pommegranate bush looks worse than this.
There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free.
If you want to be reminded of the love of the Lord, just watch the sunrise.
The secret to a good morning is to watch the sunrise with an open heart.
Be the morning in everyone's eyes and make their day turn into a thing of beauty.

A special thanks to Geoff Gallice for inviting me along to this very special place in a remote corner of Manu NP.

We have a dwarf (supposedly, but no one told it, and if I would let it, it would grow to the first floor!) fig tree near one of the corners of the house, and each year it gives us more figs than we can eat. This is what they look like when the fruit emerges from the pod and is beginning to take a recognizable shape.
Handheld macro shot, lovely bokeh by the Micro–Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 lens. Can’t wait for the native Z–mount 105 to arrive, as I have pre–ordered it (June 2021).

Protaras is a predominantly tourist resort which comes under the administrative jurisdiction of Paralimni Municipality in Cyprus. In ancient times, where Protaras is now located, stood the old city-state of Leukolla. The city possessed a small safe harbour where the Athenian Demetrius Poliorketes sought refuge in the year 306 BC, lying in wait for Ptolemeos, one of the successors of Alexander the Great.

My favorite place to vacation is anyplace by the ocean.
A handheld panorama of the big Fig Tree in Arusha National Park, Tanzania. It started as two Strangler Fig Trees that grew on other trees and strangled them in the fight for light. It is a wonderful tree and a great entrance to the fantastic hike up Mount Meru (4565m).
This is Miss Cecily's Photo taken with an iPhone 5 - She said:
"The New Leaves on the fig trees are sprouting. The color and fierce natural light make me want to take a picture. Not quite catching what I see yet."

Located on Calle Amargura, it was erected between the 15th and 16th centuries. This building has Gothic and Renaissance elements.
Its main façade follows the typology of most Cáceres palaces, with granite masonry highlighting the semi-circular arched doorway, large voussoirs reaching to the ground , a large image of Carvajal’s coat of arms framed in an alfiz, and a corner balcony under a pointed arch.
Inside the house, there is a rectangular cloister with arcades on columns.
Its twelfth-century round tower made of rough ashlars also stands out. At its base you will find the palace chapel, decorated with some interesting frescoes.
Recommendations: You must visit the garden, with a spectacular fig tree--a clear example of the interior green spaces that can be found today in these buildings in the Historic Centre.

Fig Tree Bay is a sandy beach in the resort of Protaras, Cyprus. The sandy beach stretches for 500m and the waters are clean enough for the beach to have been awarded blue flag designation. The beach, which runs the length of its own cove, takes its name from the fig trees located close to the coast

but enter at your own peril: steep and slippery-sides, over 3-metres deep, submerged branches, and critters aplenty! The fig-tree atop the rock on the right has a garland wrapped around it's trunk to appease the spirits of the land (according to local animistic belief). Some say the pool-spirit's face is cast in the facing moss-covered rock (left of centre)...
Nah, I just made that last bit up, but the rock does appear to have a face with a lopsided mouth.
