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).

You do not do any favors on loving someone
Neither me, neither me
Who invented love was not me
It was not me, was not me
Nor me or anyone else
Love happens in life
You were off guard and by chance I was too
And as chances are important, darling
Of our lives, life also made a chance

Hello my amazing friends !
Today Major Tom is waiting for a very, very important call. He is about to reconnect with his past and some very good childhood friends. He doesn’t want to miss this call so that is why he has his phone near while doing his astronaut’s stuff on the moon. There is also a very red and large phone booth, just few steps away… Of course, he has to use the old ladder to get to it, but even with his astronaut suit he is very, very fast. He completed the astronauts training after all, and there was a special section « ladder climbing for dummies and astronauts » so I’m sure he will be able to answer the phone in time !
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! See you later !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!!

Indian Prayer
www.youtube.com/watch?v=-F-gPnyUtKs
Great Spirit, who exists before you are in every person and every thing, we invite you to come from the distant places in our present existence.
Big Spirit of the North, giving wings in the air of water to flow and rain and snow, covering the earth with the crystal carpet over which every sound is beautiful, we stand in front of you.
Fill us with the strength to withstand the snowstorms and help us to thank you for the beauty that springs from the warm earth when it wakes up.
The Great Spirit of the East, the land that rises in the sun, you hold in your right hand the years of our lives and on the left the opportunities of every day.
Prepare us not to reject your gifts, nor to miss the hope of every day and every year.
The Great Spirit of the South, where your warm breath melts the ice around our heart, its aroma speaks from distant springs and summers, dissolved our fears, melted our hatred, burned our love with the flames of truth.
Teach us that whoever is truly powerful is also polite, whoever is wise is also merciful, whoever is brave is also compassionate.
The Great Spirit of the West, the land that the sun is tilting, with the bare mountains and lawns, bless us with the knowledge of peace and freedom. Teach us that the end is more important than the beginning, and that the sun does not reign in vain every day.
The Great Spirit of the Earth, lord of the metals and the stones, guardian of the treasures of the earth, help us to thank you daily for your countless springs that keep us alive and for your untold beauty!

It is important to go outside every other day and take pictures for 30 minutes. This way you practice your photography and improve your skills. I have a schedule for my photography subject. I takes portraits when I am indoor. I take flower pictures during the day, but I need a reflector to prevent harsh light. For landscape I need cloudy day mostly. I also like taking pictures before 10 am and after 5 pm to prevent the harsh light. I took this picture to show the details in macro.
Caerwent was the capital of the Silures, the most important and powerful British tribe of south Wales. The town was founded in the late 1st century beside the main road from Glevum (Gloucester) to the Roman fort at Isca (Caerleon), and was the first true town in Wales.
Happy Fence Friday
Castroviejo, Soria.
En Duruelo de la Sierra se puede encontrar uno de los parajes más impresionantes de la provincia de Soria: Castroviejo, sin duda su más firme emblema.
Sin dejar volar mucho la imaginación, estas rocas labradas en la naturaleza por la erosión del viento, la lluvia, la nieve y el hielo, adoptan formas increíbles y fantásticas.
Los amplios prados otorgan al viajero un relajante lugar para realizar una parada entre bosques de hoja perenne y helechos, pero lo más importante e indispensable de esta visita es sin lugar a dudas, contemplar las vistas panorámicas desde su mirador. Ante los ojos se abre un auténtico ‘mar de pinos’ hasta el horizonte.
In Duruelo de la Sierra one can find one of the most impressive places in the province of Soria: Castroviejo, undoubtedly its strongest emblem.
Without letting much imagination fly, these rocks carved in the nature by the erosion of the wind, the rain, the snow and the ice, take incredible and fantastic forms.
The wide meadows give the traveler a relaxing place to make a stop between evergreen forests and ferns, but the most important and indispensable of this visit is without a doubt, to contemplate the panoramic views from its viewpoint. Before the eyes opens a real 'sea of pines' to the horizon.
Willow Warbler - Phylloscopus trochilus
Taken on local walks (Kenfig area)
It is a bird of open woodlands with trees and ground cover for nesting, including most importantly birch, alder, and willow habitats. The nest is usually built in close contact with the ground, often in low vegetation. Like most Old World warblers (Sylviidae), this small passerine is insectivorous. In northern Europe, it is one of the first warblers to return in the spring though is later than the closely related chiffchaff.
It is a typical leaf warbler in appearance, 11–12.5 cm long and 7–15 g weight. It is greenish brown above and off-white to yellowish below; the wings are plain greenish-brown with no wingbars. Juveniles are yellower below than adults. It is very similar to the chiffchaff, but non-singing birds can be distinguished from that species by their paler pinkish-yellow legs (dark brown to blackish in chiffchaff), longer paler bill, more elegant shape and longer primary projection (wingtip). Its song is a simple repetitive descending whistle, while the contact call is a disyllabic 'hoo-eet', distinct from the more monosyllabic 'hweet' of chiffchaffs.
Willow warblers prefer young, open, scrubby woodland with small trees, including human-altered habitats such as coppice and young plantations up to 10–20 years old. High amounts of birch, alder and willow, with good lichen amounts, and water features (e.g. streams), fields with large amounts of bracken and mosses, and patches of low bramble (for nest cover) are preferred, but it will use a wide range of other species, including young or open coniferous forests. Incorporating woodland ride edge thickets is beneficial, as is 15 metre woodland edges of varying structure and height. They prefer damp woodland areas. Thicket forming shrubs like blackthorn provide pockets of habitat. Deer browsing can degrade the required low cover.

Music is very important for my well-being. And most of the time I choose music how I feel. I´m so happy that there exist so many different lines.
Now I chose the following video with the divine Nigel Kennedy, who plays "Winter" from Vivaldi´s "The Four Seasons" .

Dragonflies are important in wetland ecosystems, vulnerable to wetland drainage, excess nutrients, pesticides and shoreline "cleaning." They eat a broad range of insects from mosquitoes to beetles to other dragonflies. Over 60 dragonflies are found in Central Florida. Some species do not venture far from the water where they breed, while others, such as the Wandering Glider, migrate long distances.
The four-spotted pennant dragonfly is found throughout the southern tier of the United States as far west as Arizona. It's also been spotted in New Jersey. In Florida, its found in most peninsular counties, including all of South Florida, and in a few panhandle counties as far west as Leon and Wakulla. Like other dragonflies, it likes to be around lakes and ponds, since that's where it spends the first part of its life, and that's where it reproduces. The scientific name of the four-spotted pennant is brachymesia gravida. Mature individuals have a dark, slender body, a large black spot between the nodus and stigma of each wing and white stigmas (the only dragonfly with white stigmas). Juveniles are mostly orange-brown with white spots on the side of the face.
This Four-spotted Pennant is from my archives! (Hope I am right about the ID Mary)
HMBT! Happy monochrome bokeh Thursday!
HSS! Happy Sliders Sunday!
My first black and white image of a meadow with flowers :). I needed many images and an important tip of a friend to get the desired dreamy effect. In LR I decided to create a low key image after I converted it into a black and white image to let the buttercup flowers stand out from the background.

Mameda Town and its surroundings, which developed as a townspeople's land during the Tenryo period, retained a lot of land division at the time of residence, and traditional buildings remain well as a group, so the range of about 10.7 hectares was selected as a national important preservation district for groups of traditional buildings on December 10, 2004.

Pura Besakih ist das bedeutendste auf der Insel Bali gelegene hinduistische Heiligtum in Indonesien und „Muttertempel“ aller balinesischer Tempel. Der Tempel wurde vermutlich im 8. Jahrhundert gegründet und liegt auf rund 950 Meter Höhe am Südwesthang des Gunung Agung, einem nach wie vor aktiven Vulkan. Die Gesamtanlage besteht aus über 200 Gebäuden, zu denen mehrstufige Tempeltürme (meru), Schreine (pelinggih), offene Pavillons (bale) und weitere geschlossene Gebäude gehören. Die Fürstengeschlechter haben jeweils ihren eigenen Bezirk. Alle Dorfgemeinschaften verfügen innerhalb des weitläufigen Geländes über eigene Tempelbereiche oder Schreine, die jeweils von einer Mauer umgeben sind.
Pura Besakih is a temple (pura) complex in the village of Besakih on the slopes of Mount Agung in eastern Bali, Indonesia. It is the most important, the largest and holiest temple of Hindu religion in Bali, and one of a series of Balinese temples. Perched nearly 1000 meters up the side of Gunung Agung, it is an extensive complex of 23 separate but related temples with the largest and most important being Pura Penataran Agung. The temple is built on six levels, terraced up the slope. The entrance is marked by a candi bentar (split gateway), and beyond it the Kori Agung is the gateway to the second courtyard

"There are only five things that are worthwhile and I name them in order of importance:
Amsterdam, early spring, the last 10 or 14 days of August, women and the incomprehensibility of God.
The most important thing I mentioned first."

An important thing for birds who got a late start on their nests is keeping the young chicks cool. Weather has warmed up and we are climbing into the 90s every dayl.
This parent is standing between the sun and the chicks and holding out its wings to further shade them.
The midday light isn't very good for photography either.

Important to know: Iguanas are capable of severely injuring people, other animals and themselves when their body language messages are not recognized. Most iguanas clearly sign that trouble is ahead. They nod their head and wave their dewlap side to side.
The dewlap is a fold of loose skin hanging from the neck or throat of an animal, like a cow. Iguanas use their dewlap to communicate. First, an extended dewlap can simply be a greeting. An extended dewlap is often used to say hello to another creature during mating and most generally as a territorial sign. Second, it can be a form of protection. A threatened iguana may extend its dewlap to intimidate a predator into thinking it is much larger than it is. Third, an extended dewlap may be a sign that the iguana is trying to adjust its temperature. An extended dewlap on an iguana basking in the sun is quite normal. It may be catching sun to warm up or catching a breeze to cool off. So it's important to consider "the big picture" when reading an Iguana's body language.
