The Lake is one of Central Park's most important scenic destinations. This 20-acre water body connects the Ramble, Bethesda Terrace, and various west side landscapes to form what is often called the heart of Central Park.
Note: "The San Remo" in the background is where the rich and famous lives.
Today my daughter & I visited here, I wanted to take some water lilies there, but, none of them, except one lotus lily, so disappointing tho. But, we had a grand time visiting MoMA. It was hot today, but, later in the late afternoon it got a little cooler. There's always a lot to see in Manhattan, esp. now, with a lot of tourists and so forth.
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.
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday
So very sorry to hear of those harmed in Nova Scotia. So very sad.
Concarneau has made its living from the fishing industry for hundreds of years and the town remains an important center: more than 100,000 tonnes of tuna are caught each year by Concarneau-based boats.
Concarneau is the third most important fishing port of France.
The town has two distinct areas: the modern town on the mainland and the medieval Ville Close, a walled town on a long island in the center of the harbour. Historically, the old town was a center of shipbuilding. The Ville Close is now devoted to tourism with many restaurants and shops aimed at tourists. However restraint has been shown in resisting the worst excesses of souvenir shops. Also in the Ville Close is the fishing museum. The Ville Close is connected to the town by a bridge and at the other end a ferry to the village of Lanriec on the other side of the harbor.
La Réserve nationale de faune de la Baie de L’Isle-Verte
L'Isle-Verte (Bas-Saint-Laurent), Québec
La Réserve nationale de faune (RNF) de la Baie de l’Isle-Verte constituée de vastes étendues de marais, est située sur la rive sud de l’estuaire moyen du fleuve Saint-Laurent à 30 km au nord-est de la municipalité de Rivière-du-Loup. Ce territoire de 406 ha s’étend sur une bande riveraine de quelques 20 km le long du Saint-Laurent. Créée en 1980 par Environnement Canada, la réserve protège le plus important marais à spartine du Québec méridional, dernier grand vestige de ce type d’habitat vital pour la survie du Canard noir, ce qui lui a aussi valu d’être reconnue comme zone humide d'importance internationale en vertu de la Convention de Ramsar.

Baie de l'Isle-Verte National Wildlife Area
L'Isle-Verte (Bas-Saint-Laurent), Quebec
The Baie de l'Isle-Verte National Wildlife Area (NWA) encompasses a broad expanse of marshland lying on the south shore of the Upper Estuary of the St. Lawrence River 30 km northeast of Rivière-du-Loup. With an area of 406 ha, it covers a riparian strip running some 20 km along the St. Lawrence. Established in 1980 by Environment Canada, its purpose is to protect the largest Spartina marsh in southern Quebec, the last great vestige of this habitat vital to the survival of the American Black Duck, which has led to its being designated a Wetland of International Significance under the Ramsar Convention.

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.
Las abejas desempeñan un papel importante en la polinización de las plantas con flores, y son el principal tipo de polinizador en los ecosistemas que contienen plantas con flores. ... Un pequeño número de plantas producen aceites florales nutritivos en lugar de polen, que se recolectan utilizando este tipo de abejas.

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)
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.
it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow :-)

Parkgate was an important port from the start of the 18th century, in particular as an embarkation point for Ireland. The River Dee, which served as a shipping lane to the Roman city of Deva (Chester), had silted up, in part by 383 AD, creating a need for a port further downstream.[4] Quays were built, first at Burton and later near the small town of Neston, but further silting required yet another re-siting slightly further downstream near the gate of Neston's hunting park. Hence the settlement of Parkgate was born. As the Dee silted up even further, Parkgate became unusable as a port and was superseded by the port of Liverpool, on the nearby River Mersey.[9] Towards the end of the 18th century Parkgate was popular as a seaside resort with bathers, but this diminished as the sands of the estuary were consumed with grass. Sailing from Parkgate across the estuary to Bagillt was still possible in 1864, as there is report of an accident in which the landlord of the Pengwern Arms and his brother were drowned when trying to land in rough sea conditions – three others survived.[10] But as silting progressed, with no beach and no direct access to the sea, Parkgate could manage only small subsistence from fishing and shrimps. The silting of the Dee has been accelerated by the deliberate introduction of the invasive colonising grass Spartina anglica in Connah's Quay in 1928, resulting in the growth of extensive marshlands
After some important business in NY, I couldn't help but swing by the Finger Lakes for another GS2 chase. A 5pm departure from Solvay made for great light and a successful series of shots, rounded off by this final non-shadowed scene of the day here at Skaneateles Junction. The usual three geeps made easy work of an unusually large train of mostly empties. Thanks to those in the know for their help!
Important to know: Iguanas are capable of severely injuring people, other animals and themselves when their body language signals 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, such as a cow.
Iguanas use their dewlap to communicate. First, an extended dewlap can simply be a greeting, away to say hello to another creature during mating but 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 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 more sun to warm up or a breeze to cool off. So it's important to see "the big picture" when reading Iguana body language.

Maple, (Acer), any of a large genus (about 200 species) of shrubs or trees in the family Sapindaceae, widely distributed in the North Temperate Zone but concentrated in China. Maples constitute one of the most important groups of ornamentals for planting in lawns, along streets, and in parks. They offer a great variety of form, size, and foliage; many display striking autumn colour. Several yield maple syrup, and some provide valuable, dense hard wood for furniture and other uses. All maples bear pairs of winged seeds, called samaras or keys. The leaves are arranged oppositely on twigs. Many maples have lobed leaves, but a few have leaves separated into leaflets.
