Past few days we have done this welding, 12 hours in a day.
It has been really hard for the neck, shoulders and knees, but now its done. What a relief!
Welder in picture is my friend ylli.

I do not like to photograph people because I always have to seek their permission to do so. These two of my neighbors agreed but on condition that I give them those photos. It was a very fun experience. First they posed by leaving their shovels and standing side by side,serious as in church . When I shot them the way they wanted, I showed them the photos and they were pleased. Then I asked them if they allowed me to shoot their tools and they continued to work on making concrete and I was able to shoot them as they worked.
Talking to them, I learned that my neighbors thought I am a weird woman and they call me 'Rambo'. They never know what bush I am hiding behind, passing by they often see me at some strange place, roof, tree or crawling through the grass just like Rambo.
I unsuccessfully explained to them that is a best way to take a good wildlife photos.

Seaweed farming is a common activity for women in Zanzibar and other coastal areas in East Africa and it involves cultivating different types of seaweed, primarily for commercial purposes. During low tide, women wade into the shallow waters along the coastline to tend to their seaweed farms. They typically tie small pieces of seaweed to lines or nets anchored to the seabed. These lines are then suspended in the water column, allowing the seaweed to grow and flourish.
Black Swallowtail -ovipositing female- (Papilio polyxenes) Allegany County, Maryland
She never stops moving and fluttering her beautiful wings when she looks for her host plant, touching many and stopping only very briefly to deposit her single egg on the right plant.
Her larvae will only survive and thrive on plants in the parsley and carrot family (Apiaceae). So include parsley, dill, or fennel in your garden and you may be rewarded with her visit and as a bonus you will witness and observe the astonishing life cycle of a butterfly from egg, to larva, to chrysalis and finally the amazing emergence of the beautiful adult.
They produce excellent Garnacha grapes every year and they are used to make wines at Domaines Lupier, Navarra, Spain. We just tasted them just before harvest.... incredible. And after fermentation... more incredible :-)
While in Nepal for 5 weeks, I got to meet so many wonderful people. I'm amazed at the heavy load this woman carried, and yet she still took time to visit with me. My burdens no longer seem heavy.

Austernfischer***(Eurasian) oystercatcher***Haematopus ostralegus
Bremerhaven, Germany
Austernfischer ernähren sich von verschiedenen Muscheln, aber auch von Schnecken, Krebsen und Wattwürmern.
Austernfischer, die im Binnenland leben, erbeuten hauptsächlich Insekten, Schnecken und Regenwürmer.
Austernfischer sind je nach Gezeiten tag-oder nachtaktiv.
Der lange spitze Schnabel ermöglicht den Austernfischern in Muschelbänken und auf weichem Untergrund die Nahrung gezielt zu greifen.
Oystercatchers feed of different shells, but also by snails, crayfish and wading sentries. Oystercatcher who live inland, eat mainly insects, slugs, and earthworms.
Oystercatchers are diurnal or nocturnal depending on the tides.
The long pointed beak allows the Oystercatcher in shell banks and on soft ground to access the food.
