Macro Mondays ~~ Knots

Knot - Calidris Canutus

Norfolk

The knot is a medium-sized, short, stocky sandpiper that migrates to the UK in large numbers during winter from its Arctic breeding grounds. Commonly spotted feeding in estuaries around the coast, the largest numbers can be seen at high tide roosts in the depths of winter. A long-distance migrant, the knot can travel up to 15,000 km, stopping along the way at least once to feed. Knots eat invertebrates, molluscs and crustaceans which they find by probing their bills in the mud and sand; special sensory organs in their bill tips help them to detect buried prey in a similar fashion to the way echolocation works in bats.

The knot is fairly large and chunky, with short, green legs. In winter, they are silvery-grey on top and white underneath. In summer, they are brick-red underneath, with speckled, rust-brown upperparts. The bill is long, black and straight.

A common winter visitor to our coast, gathering in very large numbers on muddy estuaries.

Untangle my knots

and tie me in a bow,

make the mess pretty,

make me fit to be in the show,

wave yourself in,

if that's something you can do,

just whatever it takes

to make me part of you.

Macro Mondays: Knots

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !

Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Knots. And, we have Mr. Teddy bear with us to celebrate Happy Teddy Bear Tuesdays.

Since, Mr.Teddy Bear and I are very busy it will be a short presentation. Mr. Teddy Bear hates it when your electrical cords are full of knots… Isn’t that annoying or what ? It happens every singe time when, Mr. Teddy bear tries to charge his phone or even when he tries to listen to music… He has to lose, at least, half an hour to detangle all the knots in the cord of his earphones…

But I must admit, Mr. Teddy bear is very patient. I’m not as patient as him, I will scream at the knots and then throw away my earphones lol. Knots are driving me nuts lol. But Mr. Teddy Bear will take all the time it takes to have a perfectly straight cord , with no knots at all…

Mucho, mucho amor for you all !! Have a beautiful day my friends !! See you later!!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !!

For the MacroMondays theme "Knots"

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !

Today is a red day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is knots.

And as Jean Toomer said:

« We learn the rope of life by untying its knots ». So here we go, a tiny yellow paper boat trying to untie a huge blue knots on its long sail adventure.

I hope you will like my interpretation of this theme.

FYI: my tiny boat is about 0,8cm long.

I have to go since I will have some huge knots to untie at my work for sure … It is a pretty much standard situation on Monday morning … wish me luck !!

Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

Thank you for taking a look at my images.

Looking close...on Friday!

This week's FlickrFriday theme is: #Knot

Swirling knots at Snettisham in Norfolk.

The Grapevine knot is the way to join two ends of a line to form s single line and is an excellent and reliable way of joining two climbing ropes. It can be used for a full rope-length abseil; after which it should still be possible to retrieve the rope. If tied wrongly it can fail. If you tie it and your life depends on it, inspect it carefully. If someone else ties it, inspect it extremely carefully.
