If Walter Pigeon doesn't nick it Reubin the Robin will! Taken outside the Cathedral Refectory in Winchester.

 

Alsace is such a wonderful place to visit, people were welcoming and everywhere we looked it was clean and well kept, the only sas point was that many people are now too old to take care of their flower boxes, which is a tradition, and as you can see on the picture, the support for the boxes are still there, but the flowers have disapeared. hopefully they will find younger ones that still carry this pride.

This is the last photo from our trip to the Charleston area, at least for now.

 

We saw this window, with its windowbox, while walking in the old part of Charleston, near the Battery and Rainbow Row. There are a lot of splendid details, of all sorts, in the buildings and plants in this area.

First shot of 2011 of a flower in my garden. Seems unbelievable that a little while ago the plant was covered in snow,the whole thing looks so fresh now.

This was shot from the main entrance to the Fairbanks Museum and Planetarium in St.Johnsbury VT. One can see that the fourth flowerbox support from the left is missing! Maybe it's on display inside the museum. / Cette photo a été prise à partir de l'entrée principale du musée et planétarium Fairbanks de Saint-Johnsbury au Vermont. On remarque à gauche qu'il manque un de ses pieds à la balustrade. Peut-être fait-il partie de l'exposition à l'intérieur!

For my Flickr friend Pete Zarria, just could not walk past this without taking a pic- he was hiding in a flowerbox along the street in a small town

Für meinen Flickr Freund Pete Zarria. Musste einfah ein Foto machen von diesem Frosch- er versteckte sich in einem Blumentrog am Strassenrand in einem kleinen Dorf.

While watering the flowers today we found this bunny hiding under some leaves. It's about 4" long. Got six shots on it and then it ran away. Not many things cuter than a baby rabbit.

Hand held. 20D W/ 28-300mm lens.

As you see, you can grow more than just strawberries in those flowerboxes. :-)

Anyway, with the temperatures over 30°C (86°F) and the sun beating down on this corner of the building, little burdies don't have it easy. Their mum can drink from the cup on the left, but the chicks can't reach it themselves.

 

So they get a little extra refreshment every now and then. :-)

Not sure if this is a Cosmos or a Zinnia...growing in a flowerbox on the lower deck. OK, the vote's in - it's a Cosmos. Oh, and Happy July!

I don't know what these are but they caught my eye as I walked past my neighbour's flowerbox.

Reading's streets still abound with vibrant flower boxes.

# Highest position: 241 on Sunday, April 4, 2010

It's been a busy week at work. Need to catch up on everyone's lovely streams.

Flowers at Menominee Municipal Complex.

Ochsenfurt mit seiner historischen Altstadt liegt im südlichen Maindreieck im Landkreis Würzburg und blickt auf eine über 1250-jährige Geschichte zurück . Die schöne Altstadt mit ihrer fast vollständigen Befestigungsanlage, Stadttoren und Türmen, Fachwerkhäusern, der Andreas-Kirche und vor allem dem Rathaus aus dem 15. Jahrhundert ist einen Besuch wert.

  

Buds and flowers of the primrose growing in a flowerbox, and currently

is being protected from the rain we're having now.

Strobist: 1 Yongnuo YN560-IV in 30" shoot through umbrella, 1/8 power camera right above. Yongnuo trigger. (Tree trunk is lit by a permanent decorative LED) . Day was very overcast.

Had been watching the weather forecast about week ago (due the potential Weather event). In the last couple days, the snow totals they were forecasting kept going up an inch each day.

 

It was Sunday and I had checked the forecast and they were expecting 6 inches of snow (That kind of snowfall in one weather event is an absolute rarity here). It started flurrying just before 8pm. And accumulated overnight.

 

This morning it started to pick up in intensity right around 8am. Around 10am I went outside and swept our sidewalk and driveway with a broom. And also cleared off the car.

 

Sometime around 2pm my wife took the tape measure outside and measured almost 6 inches of snow. We still have several hours left of snowfall before it ends. We could easily end up with 8 or more inches!

Rusty [ taken last summer]. ...he was taking a break from patroling the yard.

  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You may or may not have noticed that I haven't been on Flickr as much as usual.......and I apologize for that but have GREAT news~ I caught the LAST kitten [#5] this morning.

 

Why are the last ones the hardest to catch? It didn't help that:

 

1. It was pouring rain non-stop while trapping.......cat's HATE rain.

2. The park maintenance people showed up two days in a row to work on the grounds right next to the caretaker's house. Loud equipment and strangers kept the kitten out of sight.

3. The caretaker's boys played in the backyard today when I was trying to trap.

4. The caretaker put their two chihuahua's out in the backyard while I was trapping....

5. Despite feeding the three adults while there [ I spayed/ neutered them last October] they kept going in my traps. I must have gone thru thirty cans of fancy feast & six large cans of tuna keeping them fed ...[ no kidding].

 

I also saw an orange TOM this morning in the same yard. I should trap him....but am totally exhausted....so he will have to wait as I'm taking a BREAK--no more TNR for awhile..

 

** Today's kitten is a little tuxedo boy. He has an injured eye.....my vet assures me he will be ok.

** Father cat was released this morning.

** Mother cat will be spayed next week.

** All the kittens are going to private homes/ foster and will eventually be adopted ~ woo hoo.

 

I am disappointed to learn that "picnik" is shutting down. I used their site a lot .....mostly for making collages. sigh.

Album – Babenhausen, Hesse, Germany – 2018SEP07-08:

 

Mother went this time last year to Babenhausen to visit the Blachniks, whom our family has known 58 years, and we were planning for her to go over again stand-by on the flight I was working this weekend. It began to fill and I was unable to swap trips: if my scheduled flight had no empty passenger seats, I could not carry my mother over the ocean on that day, so Joe agreed to accompany her the day before and I would work the next day to Frankfurt, then ride the crew bus to Mainz, take the train to Babenhausen, visit Mother and the Blachniks, and pick Joe up. He and I would take the train to Mainz, and he would ride back with me while I worked the flight to Charlotte.

 

And we did! So Mother is in Babenhausen, Joe & I in Charlotte. Next we need her return trip back to the States.

 

As my vacation is starting, I plan to fly back stand-by, see the Blachniks, Mother, and maybe her host family in Babenhausen a few days while I stay at a hotel, then take Mother by train to Mainz she wants to see, and fly stand-by again; after landing in Charlotte she will overnight with her sister Marie Robinson in Gastonia, to break up the drive back to her home in Brevard.

 

Hope you enjoy this 37% of our 184 Babenhausen captures!

The Frank Lloyd Wright quote carved into the back reads: "Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature; it will never fail you." We have a number of buildings in Racine designed by the famous architect; they are built of red brick. One of them, a large home, is called Wingspread.

 

The 2019 public art project entries were unveiled last Saturday. They are benches with attached flower boxes built by the Veterans Outreach group and decorated by local artists. The theme is "Racine's Past, Present and Future".

Babenhausen went all out for their Old City Festival: we loved everything and had a great time
