Şirince (pronounced [ʃiˈɾindʒe]) is a village of 600 inhabitants in İzmir Province, Turkey, located about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) east of the town Selçuk.
Şirince was settled when Ephesus was abandoned in the 15th century but most of what one sees today dates from the 19th century. There is a story that the village was settled by freed Greek slaves who named the village Çirkince (meaning "Ugly" in Turkish) to deter others from following them. The village's name was changed to Şirince (meaning "Pleasant") in 1926 by the governor of Izmir Province.
In the 1990s the well-known Istanbul linguist Sevan Nişanyan and his wife Müjde Tönbekici settled in Şirince, which had been semi-derelict since the 1923 population exchange between Greece and Turkey. They were instrumental in having the village declared a national heritage site, and they undertook to renovate ruined historic houses using the original materials and building techniques of the village.
Several of the renovated village houses were eventually converted into a highly acclaimed Hotel de Charme by the name of the Nisanyan Houses.
After 2006 Nișanyan collaborated with Ali Nesin, a prominent mathematician and philanthropist, in developing the Nesin Mathematics Village near Şirince. Constructed strictly along the lines of traditional Aegean rural architecture, the village offered summer courses in college-level and postgraduate mathematics. It attracted prominent lecturers from around the world, accommodating over 300 resident students by summer 2013.
Nisanyan also built Thethre Madrasa (in Turkish Tiyatro Medresesi), a theater institute and actors’ retreat in the manner of mediaeval Muslim seminaries. The Nisanyan Memorial Library was completed in 2013. A philosophy school became operative on the grounds of Mathematics Village in 2014.

One of the friendly inhabitants of the wide open ranches bordering the C23 C24 Reservoir Area - Usually the youngsters stop to see what i'm doing (and probably if I have any food (I don't) - the adults just go about their business.
I shot this photo at 560mm, across a canal - on my side of the canal birm, I'd be a little bit lower than the cow on the other side - the top of the canal is about 6 - 8 feet below the birm. I hope that makes sense.

Native American cultural sites prompt SFWMD to move St. Lucie County reservoir project
Tyler Treadway
Treasure Coast Newspapers
A project to clean water before it reaches the St. Lucie River and Indian River Lagoon is moving forward, and a little to the northwest.
The South Florida Water Management District agreed Thursday to shift the footprint of the C-23/C-24 South Reservoir, a project designed to reduce harmful discharges to the river and lagoon by holding and cleaning water flowing off land in western Martin and St. Lucie counties.
The board also approved spending $7.5 million to buy land needed for the move.
The reservoir is one of two that will take water out of the C-23 and C-24 canals and hold a combined 30 billion gallons of water. The project also includes a man-made marsh, called a stormwater treatment area, to clean water once it's released from the reservoirs.
They're all part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Project, a master plan authorized in 2000 to restore the environment of the Everglades, Lake Okeechobee and the St. Lucie River and Caloosahatchee river estuaries.
The southern reservoir will be 4,608 acres on the south side of Okeechobee Road just west of Summerlin Road in western St. Lucie County. The original design placed the reservoir slightly farther south and a bit more to the east.
The move was needed because some of the land in the original plan might contain Native American cultural sites and the owners of property needed to fill out the footprint weren't willing to sell their land.
Land northwest of the site was available, however, and the board agreed to buy 1,167 acres from Rebecca Eaves LLC, the business name for that section of the Eaves family ranch, for $7.5 million.
The 4,600-acre reservoir will be up to 16 feet, 6 inches deep and hold about 19.5 billion gallons of water.
Changing the footprint of the reservoir from a long rectangle to a more square shape "should result in lower costs for perimeter levees (and) canals," Gary Goforth, a Stuart environmental engineer who formerly designed and tested water projects for the district, told TCPalm.
Leftover land
Most discussion centered around what to do with about 3,900 acres of district-owned land no longer in the reservoir's footprint.
It can't be added to the reservoir, said Stephen Collins, the district's real estate chief, because a strip of land owned by unwilling sellers separates it from the rest of the reservoir footprint.
Mark Perry, executive director of the Florida Oceanographic Society in Stuart, asked that it remain as conservation land; but Nyla Pipes of the Port St. Lucie-based One Florida Foundation, noted keeping the land in public hands keeps it off the St. Lucie County tax rolls.
"Whatever we do with it will be a board decision," said SFWMD Executive Director Drew Bartlett.
The Army Corps of Engineers, the district's federal partner on the project, will start designing the reservoir later this year and begin construction in 2024.

My own note - I've visited native sites (but did not step on them) from the Before Christ (BC) era in St. Lucie County - quite interesting, as well as the lack of information, remains, and general knowledge of their existance. I'm sure most residents of St. Lucie County don't know of their former existance on these lands.

Markt Biberbach has approx. 3400 inhabitants and is located in the Augsburg district.
At the. May 16, 1684 the foundation stone of today's church in Biberbach is laid. It replaces a previous Gothic building. The church is the destination of pilgrims who venerate a wooden crucifix, the Herrgöttle von Biberbach, which dates from around 1220.
The number of pilgrims is increasing continuously, the old church is getting too small, so it is decided to build a new one.
The foundation stone was laid in 1684, the work was completed in 1694 and the consecration took place in 1697.
The builder is Valerian Brenner. From 1753 the interior was redesigned under the direction of the master builder Johann Georg Hitzelberger. The new ceiling frescoes are painted by Balthasar Riepp, the stucco is by Franz Xaver Feuchtmayr. Dominikus Zimmermann made the side altars between 1712 and 1716.

The Church of the Ascension of the Lord was built in 1882-83. It was erected for the needs of the inhabitants of the village of Demeevka. Then it was outside of Kyiv.
It was originally wooden. In 1885-1892 the temple was expanded with two side aisles and overlaid with bricks.
At the beginning of the 20th century, in 1905-10, a parochial school was built nearby, the building of which can be seen here today.
The church is well known for the fact that on July 25 (August 7), 1907, the wedding of the Ukrainian poetess Lesya Ukrainka with musicologist-folklorist Kliment Kvitka took place in it.
Before leaving Kyiv in 1913, the future world-famous artist, singer, poet and composer Alexander Vertinsky sang in the parish choir.
In Soviet times, the Demeevskaya Church was the only church in Kyiv where worship services did not stop, despite the persecution of the communist authorities.
The future legendary football coach Valery Lobanovsky was baptized in the temple. Later, he donated an altar gospel to the church.
Храм Вознесіння Господнього (Свято-Вознесенський храм) збудовано у 1882-83 роках. Його звели для потреб жителів села Деміївка. Тоді це було за Києвом. Спочатку храм був дерев'яним. У 1885-1892 рр. храм розширили двома бічними приділами та обклали цеглою.
На початку ХХ ст., у 1905-1910 рр., неподалік була побудована парафіяльна школа, будівлю якої тут можна побачити і сьогодні.
Храм відомий тим, що 25 липня (7 серпня) 1907 року в ньому відбулося вінчання української поетеси Лесі Українки (Косач Лариса Петрівна) з музикознавцем-фольклористом Климентом Квіткою.
Майбутній всесвітньо відомий художник, співак, поет і композитор Олександр Вертинський до від’їзду з Києва у 1913 році співав у парафіяльному хорі храму.
У радянські часи Деміївська церква була єдиним храмом у Києві, де не припинялися богослужіння, незважаючи на переслідування комуністичної влади.
У храмі був хрещений майбутній легендарний футбольний тренер Валерій Лобановський. Пізніше він подарував церкві напрестольне Євангеліє.
Caldana, Gavorrano, Grosseto
Il borgo di Caldana fa parte del comune di Gavorrano, provincia di Grosseto, ed è ubicato sulla dorsale di pianura sud orientale del Monte Calvo ad una altezza di m. 178 s.l.m.
La storia di Caldana parte dal Medioevo e notizie documentate fanno già risalire la sua esistenza quale possedimento della diocesi di Roselle, la quale cedette il borgo ai monaci della vicina abbazia di Sestinga; il suo nome originale era "Caldana di Ravi" in quanto considerato come sussidiario del vicino borgo di Ravi anch'esso posto in comune di Gavorrano. Nei secoli successivi fu proprietà della famiglia Pannocchieschi dopodichè venne annesso alla repubblica di Siena e altre famiglie della zona tra la fine del XVI secolo e la seconda metà del XVII, tra le quali i Suarez, i Bichi e i Chigi. Quest'ultima famiglia cedette Caldana ai Lorena decretandone l'accesso al Granducato di Toscana.
Caldana possiede monumenti molto interessanti per un borgo di tali dimensioni, quali la chiesa di San Biagio attuale chiesa parrocchiale, edificata nel XVI secolo su probabile impianto medievale del XII secolo; la chiesa è attribuita ad Antonio da Sangallo il Vecchio anche se studi tutt'ora da verificare attribuiscono il tempio allo stesso Michelangelo Buonarroti per alcune analogie con proprie edificazioni e reperti ritrovati a Londra alla National Gallery.
Caldana è comunque un luogo ameno racchiuso tra le sue mura alto medievali edificate in forma quadrangolare e con quattro imponenti bastioni angolari.
La sua vita di borgo è fatta da 906 abitanti ma è comunque un luogo vivo e pieno di iniziative specialmente nel periodo estivo quando il turismo riempie i suoi stretti vicoli.
The village of Caldana is part of the municipality of Gavorrano, province of Grosseto, and is located on the south-eastern plain of Monte Calvo at a height of m. 178 above sea level
The history of Caldana starts from the Middle Ages and documented information already traces its existence as a possession of the diocese of Roselle, which ceded the village to the monks of the nearby abbey of Sestinga; its original name was "Caldana di Ravi" as it is considered as a subsidiary of the nearby village of Ravi also placed in the municipality of Gavorrano. In the following centuries it was owned by the Pannocchieschi family after which it was annexed to the republic of Siena and other families in the area between the end of the sixteenth century and the second half of the seventeenth, including the Suarez, the Bichi and the Chigi. This latter family ceded Caldana to the Lorraines, decreeing their access to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany.
Caldana has very interesting monuments for a village of this size, such as the church of San Biagio, the current parish church, built in the 16th century on a probable 12th century medieval structure; the church is attributed to Antonio da Sangallo the Elder even if studies still to be verified attribute the temple to Michelangelo Buonarroti himself for some similarities with his own buildings and finds found in London at the National Gallery.
Caldana is however a pleasant place enclosed within its high medieval walls built in a quadrangular shape and with four imposing corner bastions.
Its village life is made up of 906 inhabitants but it is still a lively place full of initiatives especially in the summer when tourism fills its narrow alleys.

Elk (Wapitii) are inhabitants of the area where I live. Even in winter, they don't stray far, finding enough to eat on exposed tufts of grass or low-lying tree branches. They are beautiful animals, as can be seen in this photograph of a family of elk cooling off on a hot summer's day. There are other 'elk photographs' in my Flickr portfolio, and I'm sure I'll be adding others in the fullness of time. Elk are too beautiful not to photograph. For interested readers, some additional information about elk is provided below.
The North American elk, or wapiti, is the largest form of the red deer species Cervus elaphus. In general appearance elk are obviously kin to the well-known white-tailed deer. However, elk are much larger. Among Canadian deer, they are second in size only to the moose. An adult bull elk stands about 150 cm tall at the shoulder and weighs about 300 to 350 kg, although some large bulls approach 500 kg in late summer before the rut, or breeding season. Cows are substantially smaller but still have a shoulder height of 135 cm and an adult weight of around 250 kg.
The colour of the elk’s coat ranges from reddish brown in summer to dark brown in winter. Although it looks white from a distance, on closer inspection the rump colour is ivory to orange. In contrast to the rump, the head and neck are dark. Elk have long, blackish hair on the neck that is referred to as a mane.
Male elk are notable for their impressively large antlers. It is amazing that these large structures are grown new each year by the animals in a period of a few months in spring and summer. Antlers look particularly large in summer when they are encased in velvet—a covering that protects them during growth. In later summer, the velvet is rubbed from the fully grown antlers, revealing the bony structure. Newly cleaned antlers are light grey in colour but become stained by rubbing and thrashing through vegetation during the rutting season.
"Elk" is the name by which most Canadians know this majestic deer. "Wapiti," meaning "white rump," is the Shawnee Indian name and the common name preferred by scientists, because the animal known as an "elk" in Europe is not a red deer at all but a close relative of the North American moose. Other red deer, smaller and belonging to several subspecies, are found throughout the northern hemisphere: in Scotland and continental Europe, in North Africa, and in Asia.

Naxos
Naxos (/ˈnæksɒs, -soʊs/; Greek: Νάξος, pronounced [ˈnaksos]) is a Greek island belonging to the Cyclades island group. It is the largest island in the group. It was an important centre during the Bronze Age Cycladic Culture and in the Ancient Greek Archaic Period. The island is famous as a source of emery, a rock rich in corundum, which until modern times was one of the best abrasives available.
The largest town and capital of the island is Chora or Naxos City, with 8,897 inhabitants (2021 census). The main villages are Filoti, Apiranthos, Vivlos, Agios Arsenios, Koronos and Glynado.
Selva de Irati, Navarra, España.
El bosque o la selva de Irati (Iratiko oihana en euskera) es un bosque repartido entre el norte de Navarra (España) y los Pirineos Atlánticos (Sola y Baja Navarra) en el suroeste de Francia.
Por su parte española está situada en el valle del río Irati, entre los montes de Orzanzurieta y Roncesvalles al oeste, y el monte Orhi al este. El límite sur lo pone la imponente mole de la Sierra de Abodi. Los principales accesos son por el oeste por Orbaiceta (Valle de Aézcoa) y por el este por Ochagavía (Valle de Salazar).
Se trata de la mayor masa forestal de Navarra y uno de los mayores y mejor conservados bosques de hayas (Fagus sylvatica) y abetos (Abies alba) de toda Europa. A pesar de ser un bosque explotado forestalmente desde los siglos XVI-XVII, el respeto y el buen hacer de los habitantes de estos valles ha hecho que se conserve en total plenitud. Existen dentro de la zona diversos espacios protegidos: todo el Irati es una ZEPA (Zona de Especial Protección de Aves), así como zonas protegidas como Reserva Natural o Reserva Integral del total de 17.000 ha del bosque.
The Irati forest or jungle (Iratiko oihana in Basque) is a forest distributed between the north of Navarra (Spain) and the Atlantic Pyrenees (Sola and Lower Navarra) in southwestern France.
For its Spanish part, it is located in the valley of the Irati river, between the Orzanzurieta and Roncesvalles mountains to the west, and the Orhi mountain to the east. The southern limit is set by the imposing mass of the Sierra de Abodi. The main accesses are to the west through Orbaiceta (Valle de Aézcoa) and to the east through Ochagavía (Valle de Salazar).
It is the largest forest mass in Navarra and one of the largest and best preserved beech (Fagus sylvatica) and fir (Abies alba) forests in all of Europe. Despite being a forest exploited by forestry since the 16th-17th centuries, the respect and good work of the inhabitants of these valleys has made it fully preserved. There are several protected areas within the area: the entire Irati is a ZEPA (Special Bird Protection Area), as well as protected areas such as Natural Reserve or Integral Reserve of the total 17,000 ha of forest.
Lipník is an ancient town with 8.5 thousand inhabitants, situated in the very heart of the Moravian Gate. One side of this ancient trade route is lined by the Hostýn Hills, the other one by the Oder Hills. The Moravian Gate Valley is passed by the Bečva River. In the past, an important trade route, called Amber Trail, passed here.
The first written mention of Lipník dates from the year 1238, the town itself is certainly much older. Since 1989, Lipník is an urban conservation area (there are only two conservation areas within the Olomouc Region - Olomouc and Lipník). There are more than 100 listed buildings. The town has retained its original street lines, historic buildings in the medieval core and to a large extent very remarkable fortification system, which still bears all the signs of ancient settlements – a dominant square in the centre, „star-type“ road system and bypass roads. To a large extent, it has preserved the original historic town´s layout.
From this point of view, the urban conservation area of Lipník can be considered as one of the most valuable towns in the country according to unofficial categorization. There is also a medieval Helfštýn Castle near the town, which is one of the largest castles in Central Europe. In recent years, the renowned international artist blacksmith meetings Hefaiston take place at the end of August. In addition, it hosts many other cultural and sports events.
The wider surroundings of the town have become an attractive destination for cyclists, riding on the Bečva and Amber Route biking trails. Some sections are also attractive for in-line skaters.
Lipník has an ideal transport accessibility - whether by road or rail. The town is located in central Moravia, about 30 km from Olomouc, 15 km from Přerov and 12 km from Hranice, by the river of Bečva in the valley of the Moravian Gate. You can reach Lipník from Olomouc in approximately half an hour, from Brno and Ostrava in an hour. Lipnik lies virtually on the main route from Ostrava to Olomouc. There is a dual carriageway R-35 in the vicinity, the D47 motorway is in service since 2009. Lipník n. B has a railway station. As to bus transport, several express coaches stop here too.

....... I have never had the opportunity to discover the nest of the long-tailed tit before .... very happy with it. Hopefully I can discover some activity in this nest a little further in the season. Unless it is completely overgrown by the luxuriant hydra ivy?
Out of respect for the nest inhabitants I took the photo from a respectable - and somewhat hidden - distance, the photo is a more than maximum crop just to be able to show this activity.
Santa Caterina has a peculiar tradition of making scarecrows and placing them on the roofs of the houses, the scarecrows are called spaventapasseri, they are made of straw, old clothes, hats and they are supposed to ward off evil spirits bringing good luck to the inhabitant. The town also has a mysterious fountain that is said to have healing properties, the fountain is called Fontana della Salute (meaning “Fountain of Health”), it is located near the Porta dell’Acqua gate and according to legend, the fountain was built by a Byzantine emperor who was cured of a disease by drinking its water. I wished we would have spent a little more time in this interesting town but that is par for the course on most places I visit but better to leave wanting more and we were also wanting to have a proper lunch as this town was shut down for Monday leaving us with Crik Crok and beer or hightailing it to Badolato.

The Heart Of Darkness-3
As dense as the night encloses you
in its firm grasp
life evolves with sunrise
and a new day.
Light enters the darkest moment
fulfilling the need for resurrection
setting free the entombed cavity
where resides
pain and nonacceptance
Fly you must from this sticky ruin
where you are unable to struggle free
trapped in a void of loneliness
the answers completely devoid of reason
The Heart of Darkness
beats in a strange flutter
until you seek the Calming Light
succumb to the mystical forces
at your command.
Author Notes
From self-knowledge comes acceptance of how vulnerable every person is. This is the Darkness. This can be dispelled with knowing yourself and setting yourself free by using the Mystical forces that you were born with. Its just a matter of recognizing what forces you have at your command. These could be an understanding of supernatural things, like numbers, colours, insight,
prophecies and clairvoyance, instinct, sympathy, compassion and silence or solitude. In using these forces, either singularly or in in conjunction with each other you can build a gigantic wall that will prevent darkness from settling into yourself permanently.
This is mysticism at its best.

Ullapool is a village and port located in Northern Scotland. Ullapool has a population of approximately 1,500 inhabitants. It is located around 45 miles northwest of Inverness in Ross and Cromarty, Scottish Highlands. Despite its modest size, it is the largest settlement for many miles around. It is an important port and tourist destination. The North Atlantic Drift passes Ullapool, moderating the temperature. A few Cordyline australis (New Zealand cabbage trees) are grown in the town and are often mistaken for palm trees. The Ullapool River flows through the town, which lies on Loch Broom, on the A835 road from Inverness.
It is in the civil parish and community council area of Lochbroom.
On the east shore of Loch Broom, Ullapool was founded in 1788 as a herring port by the British Fisheries Society.[6] It was designed by Thomas Telford. Prior to 1788 the town was only an insignificant hamlet made up of just over 20 households. The harbour is used as a fishing port, yachting haven, and ferry port. Ferries sail to Stornoway in the Outer Hebrides.
A road to link Ullapool with Dingwall was commenced in 1792. The village was historically in Cromartyshire, a county made up of many separate enclaves scattered across northern Ross-shire. Cromartyshire was abolished and combined with surrounding Ross-shire in 1890.
Many of the pivotal Victorian era discoveries[example needed] that informed the concept of plate tectonics were made in this area. There are still regular international geological conferences[example needed] held in Ullapool, which has been described as the top geological hotspot in Scotland.
Parliament granted permission in the 1890s for a railway from Ullapool to the main Highland network at Garve, but the scheme was abandoned due to insufficient funds.
The name is possibly derived from the Norse for "Wool farm" or "Ulli's farm".
