The Superb Starling, native to East Africa, stands out amongst its avian counterparts with its resplendent plumage. Its feathers shimmer with a glossy combination of iridescent blues, purples, and greens, forming a tapestry of vibrant hues that seem almost too perfect to be real. The metallic sheen on its back is a captivating sight, contrasting beautifully against its striking black head and chest.
Found in various habitats across Kenya, from savannas to woodlands, the Superb Starling is a social species that thrives in small flocks. Its melodious song fills the air, creating a symphony of sounds that harmonizes with the rhythm of the African wilderness. These birds are known for their agility and aerial acrobatics, darting effortlessly through the skies, adding a touch of dynamism to their already captivating presence.
As an important member of the East African ecosystem, the Superb Starling plays a vital role in seed dispersal and insect control, making it a key player in maintaining the delicate balance of nature.

Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge is best known for migratory waterfowl. Waterfowl are present September through April and numbers regularly peak at over 500,000 ducks and 250,000 geese. Sacramento NWR is an important wintering grounds for the Tule Greater White-fronted Geese. We spotted hundreds of these beauties as we traveled the Auto Tour route. This pair caught our eye as they huddled together reflecting on the moment.
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!!

Imagination is more important than knowledge because knowledge is limited whereas imagination encompasses the whole world.
I told Gerry that we are not supposed to be going out. Unless of course, it is important.
Maybe you can get me some Beer.
Never mind. I don't think you can carry much on that thing.

While culling my photo archives (an important project for me unless I want to blowup my computer) I came across this Pic of one of my favorite Birds. Captured January 4, 2015, it shows a Snowy attempting to keep warm on a crisp January morning.
_____________________________________________
The Snowy Egret:
A beautiful, graceful small egret, very active in its feeding behavior in shallow waters. Known by its contrasting yellow feet, could be said to dance in the shallows on golden slippers. The species was slaughtered for its plumes in the 19th century, but protection brought a rapid recovery of numbers, and the Snowy Egret is now more widespread and common than ever. Its delicate appearance is belied by its harsh and raucous calls around its nesting colonies.
Adult Snowy Egrets are all white with a black bill, black legs, and yellow feet. They have a patch of yellow skin at the base of the bill. Immature Snowy Egrets have duller, greenish legs.
Snowy Egrets wade in shallow water to spear fish and other small aquatic animals. While they may employ a sit-and-wait technique to capture their food, sometimes they are much more animated, running back and forth through the water with their wings spread, chasing their prey.
Snowy Egrets nest colonially, usually on protected islands, and often with other small herons. They concentrate on mudflats, beaches, and wetlands, but also forage in wet agricultural fields and along the edges of rivers and lakes.

Bees play an important role in the pollination of flowering plants, and are the main type of pollinator in ecosystems that contain flowering plants. ... A small number of plants produce nutritious floral oils instead of pollen, which are collected using this type of bees.

The important feudal family of the Princes of Celje did not fulfill the highest ambition - to get to the throne of Austria. By a tricked twist of history they disappeared at the moment of their greatest glory in 1456 and Celje returned to common life. It is certainly an epic story!
Hedeby was an important Viking Age (8th to the 11th centuries) trading settlement near the southern end of the Jutland Peninsula, now in the Schleswig-Flensburg district of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. It is the most important archaeological site in Schleswig-Holstein.

Haithabu war eine bedeutende Siedlung dänischer Wikinger bzw. schwedischer Waräger. Der Ort gilt als frühe mittelalterliche Stadt in Nordeuropa und war ein wichtiger Handelsort und Hauptumschlagsplatz für den Fernhandel zwischen Skandinavien, Westeuropa, dem Nordseeraum und dem Baltikum.
Haithabu lag auf der Kimbrischen Halbinsel am Ende der Schlei in der Schleswigschen Enge (Isthmus) zwischen Nordsee und Ostsee in der Nähe des historischen Ochsenwegs (oder Heerweg). Der Ort gehörte wohl zur damaligen Verwaltungseinheit Arensharde. Heute gehört das Gebiet zu Deutschland, das Gelände ist ein Teil der Gemeinde Busdorf bei Schleswig im Kreis Schleswig-Flensburg.
Der seit über neun Jahrhunderten verlassene Ort Haithabu ist gemeinsam mit dem Danewerk das bedeutendste archäologische Bodendenkmal in Schleswig-Holstein.
Although we have been absolutely spoilt with abnormally hot weather in Ireland for weeks now, the amazing weather has brought with it clear blue skies. For me one of the most important elements to landscape photography is clouds. Having been keeping an eye on cloud cover for sometime nothing appeared to be changing anytime soon so I took a trip along the beautiful Antrim Coast anyway.
With so much on this stretch of coastline and with very long evenings brings with it so many people, I had stopped at two locations that I hoped to shoot but had to move on due to the crowds. Although not the shot I wanted or the conditions I would of liked its still great to be out on such a beautiful evening.
Please feel free to favourite and follow.
Is so important for overall health and date night. Last night was my first time in the kayak this year. Finally that crazy wind disappeared. There was still some ice which made for some interesting pics. I found these (Bonaparte's Gulls?) quite entertaining as I never see them here and apparently so did the eagle perched in a tree behind me. I wondered if he dined on them or not, he looked very full and satisfied. This was my third time trying to get close where they didn't fly away... I guess they figured out I wasn't much of a threat after all. I caught a chill I couldn't get rid of until I took a hot bath when I got home but it sure was great to be out on the water after a long winter. For anyone who wants to know, my Loons are back.

Ottawa Parliament Buildings - 20101028-08
Parliament Hill is a nine-hectare (0.09 km2) site in downtown Ottawa. It is home to Canada’s Parliament Buildings, the seat of the country’s federal government. Parliament Hill’s open grounds — a rarity among national parliaments — provide a place to gather for celebration or protest and are a National Historic Site. An excellent example of the gothic revival architecture style, the Parliament Buildings — Parliament (Centre Block) and two office buildings (East and West blocks) — officially opened on 6 June 1866. The Library of Parliament is the only part of the original Centre Block to have survived a fire in 1916. A Memorial Chamber and Peace Tower were added to the rebuilt Centre Block in honour of fallen First World War soldiers. The Centennial Flame was added to the grounds to mark Canada’s centennial in 1967. (www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/parliament-buil...)

Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians!
I took this photo shortly after acquiring my first DSLR. I had fumbled my way through using it in Ecuador, basically as an expensive point and shoot, so decided to take a basic photography course at our local college to learn more. One assignment was to visit Parliament Hill and take photos both inside and outside of this important location.

Kousanji (高山寺 meaning "high mountain temple") is a Buddhist temple of Shingon sect (真言宗) located in Ogawa village northeast of Miasa. As the name suggests, it is situated near a ridge that commands a good view of Kita Alps.
Akamatsu (Japanese red pine, Pinus densiflora) is native to Japan, Korea, Northeast China and Russian Far East. It is often planted in Japanese gardens. Akamatsu grows in sunny mountainous areas in contrast to Kuromatsu (Japanese black pine, Pinus thunbergii) that grows in coastal areas of Japan and Korea. These pine trees are an important element for forming the landscapes in Japan.
Pine trees are popular Bonsai trees.
What has happened to the art of respect? We are all human beings, made of flesh and blood, no-one is superior to anyone else. It is time to change the political rhetoric which is supposed to guide us. The language used these days is not fit for our children's ears, it needs to be cleaned up so that we can teach our children about love and diversity, not hate and non acceptance! It is President Trumps duty to lead by example, through educated behavior which can also benefit his own son.
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
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" .

Next Door's Silver Birch seems to be host to quite a meeting of the local gang of Pigeons - not sure what prompted such a high level pow-wow , but there they were . I think in shot there are at least 14 candidates and there are more hidden away behind some of the trunk .

How we see things makes all the difference. I get excited when I think about the potential of the human heart and mind. We have the power to choose our own reality based on how we interpret things. This is what being in the light is all about. I’m not always successful, but I choose to see goodness. I choose to focus on compassion, forgiveness and understanding. What do you choose? ♡

Sawmill De Salamander plays an important role in the history of Leidschendam and for a major part defines the appearance of the old Leidschendam centre near the Vliet canal. It is unique in its type and surely a monument to be proud of. At the mill wood is sawn in rough planks for wood floors, furniture, ship restoration, etc. Ask the miller, he can tell you more. And the mill guides lead the visitors through the mill.
