Friendship is the purest golden knot
that once tied can never be broken.

Looking close... on Friday! - Knots
(photo by Freya, edit by me)
Thanks for views, faves and comments!
A sky full of knots. Everyday at high tide these birds are forced from the mud flats at Snettisham, Norfolk and travel a short distance to a nearby scalp. As soon as the tide turns they return.
A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "Knots". This is a naturally occurring knot in the curling tendrils of a grapevine.
Captured this Red Knot in its winter plumage on his layover on the shores of Lake St. Clair.

A Red Knot in its winter colours on the shoreline at Heacham, Norfolk. I've got a hankering for getting some shots of one, or more, of these in their summer coat.
Missing the clear skies - wet, grey and generally blurgh up here today.
4 store is coming to a new round!

Theme “Bracelet” for “Looking close... on Friday!”
This bracelet, a gift to my daughter from a friend, is made of a long string, folded rolled up and knotted with ambre glass beads
The Lucky Knot bridge is a topologically fascinating structure. The bright red truss bridge, which spans the Dragon King Harbor River in Changsha, China, twists and knots like a tangled shoestring. Its steely, 600-foot spine swoops into an infinite loop, with no clear end point. “We refer to it as a Mobius ring," says Michel Schreinemachers, a partner at Next Architects, the firm that designed the bridge. “It’s a never ending shape.”
When I saw this complex knot, I thought how I would untie this, though there was no good reason to do so, ha...
This photo always reminds me my childhood memories.My dad used to tell stories related to Roman and Greek history when I was a child. One day he said to me about "Gordian Knot," a complicated knot tied by King Gordium of Phrygia. It was believed that the one to untie the knot would become the king of Asia.King Alexander the Great cut with his sword saying it makes no difference how it is loosed.
This is kind of example for "thinking smartly" or "thinking outside the box".
I also like this happen to be Blue and White which would represent the colours of the Greek flag.

Abandoned the search for Purple Sandpipers and returned here for a bit. Literally sat in the mud to get this close ! I'd already fallen in it twice so not much of a problem !
Artist: Cosimo Cavallaro Title: Knots 1996 / Fabricated Steel
In person the twisted steel looks alive, very interesting with the green, green trees behind the artwork.
This public artwork by Michael Condron is inspired by the "Newfoundland Bottle Knot" in celebration of Poole's historic maritime trade.
Curved stainless steel strips arch out of the ground to form the coils of a knotted rope. Metal rope patterns continue across the floor, linking the sculpture arches and completing the knot.

This particular shot was taken just few weeks ago at the location described on page 38 of my guide: www.greggard.com/location-guides/shorebirds-tri-state-nj-... To my surprise, this bird was still (mostly) in its breeding plumage! So late in the season! I will post a different shot showing its colors soon.
It was really fun watching this very tame bird feeding along the shoreline. Often walking into the water for an occasional bath. Oh yeah, I took a bath myself few minutes after taking this shot😂🌊
Thank you in advance for kind comments!

Over 67,000 Knot left The Wash at high tide to rest at Snettisham, at least 30,000 Oyster Catchers joined them. It was a spectacle I will never forget. What an amazing experience!!
Thanks to all who like, comment & favourite it is very much appreciated.
The sun is finally rising above the clouds hanging over the horizon and now casting some nice golden light on this beautiful Red Knot in it's transitional plumage. The Huahou is native to New Zealand but declining. They breed on Chukotka Peninsula in far-eastern Russia and migrate to NZ and Australia for summer.
We were photographing some phalaropes last week when suddenly a Red Knot landed right next to us and soon thereafter did some wing flaps. Nice surprise!
