This turgid outflow means that the delta is unable to flush out the minerals carried by the river and is liable to become increasingly salty and uninhabitable. Water salinity is reduced by salt collecting around plant roots as most of the incoming water is transpired by plants. Peat fires might contribute to deposit salt into layers below the surface.

I managed to get this shot of that rarest variety of Dwarf Elephant, the Malachite! You do not see many of them in the wild and as they are only a few inches tall at best, they are liable to be missed except when they emerge from the undergrowth! Their numbers are dwindling particularly as they are often trodden upon and killed being so small.

Malachite is a semi-precious stone. It’s a coloured mineral with attractive bands of darker and lighter green making it sought after for the making jewellery of all sorts and figures. It’s chemical name is Calcium Carbonate Hydroxide.

Don't get caught with me in the snow... you're liable to find yourself in the midst of a little playful chaos. It usually isn't a problem though. He might look like he was trying to fend off the abominable snow Monster, but I didn't hear any complaining... Besides, it's always nice to sit around a killer fire pit like this one from Vile. Spend a little quality time with good friends, catch up, hang out etc., etc. So really I was doing him a favor by making him the recipient of my snowball ambush! Oh yeah and as an added bonus... maybe he'll think twice about using my head as an elbow rest again...#smallbutmighty Ehh... Doubtful.

Jackdaws are pleasing to watch. Solemnly and methodically, they stalk the lawn, unhurried in their search patterns, neat and tidy and dignified in their bearing. Unlike the larger and clamorous cousins with which they often flock, their phrases are clipped, their conversations brief.

They pair for life, share food and, when the male barks his arrival at the nest, the female responds with a softer, longer reply. They like manmade structures. Formerly a nuisance as they favoured chimneys for their twiggy bundles, they’re less troublesome in the era of central heating and their liking for church steeples has long been indulged. As the 18th-century poet William Cowper put it, ‘A great frequenter of the church, Where bishop-like, he finds a perch And dormitory too.’ For this habit, the bird was deemed sacred in parts of wales. From the 1930s, the Austrian ornithologist Konrad Lorenz, founder of modern ethology, determined a strict social hierarchy within jackdaw groups (collectively called trains or clatterings). Unpaired females rank lowest in the hierarchy: they’re the last to have access to food and shelter in times of scarcity, and are liable to be pecked at by others without being permitted to retaliate.

However, when a female is selected as a mate, she assumes the same rank as her partner and is accepted as such by all others in the group, upon whom she may impose her status by pecking. Our jackdaw was classified in the 18th century by Carl Linnaeus for its habit of picking up bright objects, particularly coins (monedula being from the same Latin stem, moneta, as money).

Indeed, after Adolf Hitler embarked on an art-theft campaign in the 1930s he was derided as ‘the Jackdaw of Linz’, reflecting an appetite for bright objects. A legend among early Christians declared that corvids were indeed white and took black plumage in mourning after the Crucifixion – except magpies, which were too busy pilfering to grieve properly, so turned only partially black.

I've started going back through the masses of photographs that I took last autumn and the odd little gem is popping out.

Wain Wath force is upstream of Keld and where the River Swale is still in its infancy. The river gives it's name to the Dale it passes through and c omes from the Anglo-Saxon word Sualuae meaning rapid and liable to deluge. I've certainly seen this river in full flow! An average type of flow on this occasion. A lovely place to while away a few hours with a camera :-)

The fields closest to the river, liable to flooding, were kept as grass for summer grazing.

Welcome to Trentemoult, a small fishing village on the outskirts of Nantes On explore 28 September 2020

Une île dans les îles

Trentemoult se situe dans un ancien ensemble insulaire : les îles de Rezé, cernées au nord par la Loire et au sud par le Seil. Le comblement de ce dernier a mis fin à cette insularité. Les îles de Rezé étaient constituées, de l'amont vers l'aval, de l'île des Chevaliers avec les villages de la Haute-Île et de la Basse-Île, du hameau de North House (appelé localement « Norkiouse ») et enfin de l'île de Trentemoult qui était séparée du reste de celles-ci par un petit cours d'eau : le Courtil-Brisset. Trentemoult concentrant l'essentiel de la population, le nom de l'île était souvent utilisé pour désigner l'ensemble des îles de Rezé, du reste habitées par les mêmes familles durant des siècles.

Selon la tradition, le village devrait son nom à un exploit guerrier qui eut lieu lors du siège de Nantes par les Normands au ixe siècle : trente braves auraient combattu contre des hommes du Nord. Moins épique mais peut-être plus crédible, « Trentemoult » pourrait être également issu de « trente moux » c’est-à-dire trente tertres.

L'île des pêcheurs

Les trentemousins avaient la caractéristique, jusqu'au début du xixe siècle, de vivre presque entièrement de la pratique de la pêche. Ils bénéficiaient notamment de ce privilège dans l'estuaire de la Loire, octroyé en 1397 par le duc de Bretagne Jean IV.

Les pêcheurs de Trentemoult embarquaient dans des petites barques à fond plat, appelées barges, à deux pour la pêche en Loire et à trois pour celle en mer1. Pour cette dernière, ils n'hésitaient pas à s'aventurer jusqu'à La Rochelle et Lorient. À l'automne, ils se rendaient dans la baie de Mesquer pour la pêche au hareng. Les années 1756 et 1757 furent exceptionnelles et auraient rapporté un produit cumulé de plus de 300 000 livres à la communauté, une véritable fortune.

L'île des capitaines

Au début du xixe siècle, les marins trentemousins délaissent progressivement la pêche au profit du commerce maritime : cabotage puis long-cours. Trentemoult devient ainsi, et ce pendant tout le siècle, un des principaux foyers de recrutement d'officiers de commerce pour le port de Nantes. Parmi ce grand nombre de capitaines trentemousins, on peut citer les noms de Julien Chauvelon, capitaine du Belem pendant 13 ans, ou de Georges Aubin, à qui l'on doit plusieurs récits de voyages maritimes.

Parallèlement, pour répondre à la demande de ces capitaines, des chantiers navals se développent dans les îles, à Trentemoult d'abord, puis à Norkiouse par manque de place : les principaux étant les chantiers Chauvelon et Lemerle dans la première moitié du xixe siècle, Boju, Clergeau et Tillé dans la seconde moitié. À l'apogée des chantiers, ce sont des bricks et des trois-mâts qui sortent des cales trentemousines.

Déclin et renaissance

À la fin du xixe siècle, le village est un lieu prisé par les Nantais : la création de la ligne des roquios en 1887 permet d'accéder plus facilement aux régates, baignades et guinguettes. Mais, parallèlement, la population résidente est devenue ouvrière, principalement main d'œuvre pour les chantiers navals de Nantes. En 1946, Trentemoult est considéré comme insalubre, et en 1970 la ligne des roquios est abandonnée.

En 1979, la création d'un port de plaisance relance l'intérêt pour le site. Le tournage du film La Reine blanche, en 1990, rend le village de nouveau attractif et le prix de l'immobilier y augmente. La liaison fluviale avec Nantes est rétablie en 2005. Bien que le village dépende de Rezé, l'office de tourisme l'intègre dans ses propositions de visite, signe de l'attrait retrouvé de Trentemoult.

Habitat

Les maisons traditionnelles des pêcheurs, adaptées aux crues de la Loire, étaient généralement construites sur trois niveaux. Le premier, inondable, était occupé par le cellier, la pièce d’habitation étant au deuxième niveau. Le dernier niveau était occupé par un grenier qui pouvait parfois communiquer avec les greniers mitoyens, permettant ainsi aux voisins de se rencontrer sans avoir besoin d'utiliser des embarcations. Les escaliers étaient en principe extérieurs pour accéder directement à la pièce d'habitation lors des inondations. Ces derniers étaient cependant parfois doublés par un escalier intérieur. La construction des quais (« Surcouf » à partir de 1850, « Marcel-Boissard » entre 1860 et 1888) a réduit les risques de débordement du fleuve. Les dernières grandes crues mémorables sont celles de 1910 et 1935.

Dans la seconde moitié du xixe siècle, des capitaines, dont des Cap-horniers, se sentant à l'étroit dans les maisons de pêcheurs, se sont fait construire autour du vieux village des maisons bourgeoises, pourvues de jardins d'agréments caractérisés par la présence de plantes exotiques ramenées de leurs lointains voyages.

De nos jours, le quartier des pêcheurs a la particularité d'avoir des maisons colorées aux façades originales et personnalisées. Devenu un quartier « branché » de l'agglomération nantaise, nombre d'artistes et de familles relativement aisées s'y sont établis.

Cinéma

Le cinéaste Jean-Loup Hubert est venu y tourner La Reine blanche avec Catherine Deneuve en 1990. Certains vestiges de décoration mise en place pour l'occasion subsistent en 2009. Claude Chabrol est également venu y tourner La Demoiselle d'honneur en 2005.

Trentemoult inspire encore les jeunes cinéastes, par exemple pour le court-métrage Trentemoult.

--------------------------------

An island in the islands

Trentemoult is located in a former island group: the Rezé Islands, surrounded to the north by the Loire and to the south by the Seil. The filling of the latter put an end to this insularity. The islands of Rezé consisted, from upstream to downstream, of the Île des Chevaliers with the villages of Haute-Île and Basse-Île, the hamlet of North House (locally called "Norkiouse") and finally the island of Trentemoult which was separated from the rest of these by a small stream: the Courtil-Brisset. Trentemoult concentrating most of the population, the name of the island was often used to designate all the islands of Rezé, moreover inhabited by the same families for centuries.

According to tradition, the village owes its name to a warlike feat which took place during the siege of Nantes by the Normans in the ninth century: thirty brave men fought against men from the North. Less epic but perhaps more credible, "Trentemoult" could also come from "thirty moux" that is to say thirty mounds.

Fisherman's Island

Until the beginning of the nineteenth century, the Trentemousins ​​had the characteristic of living almost entirely from the practice of fishing. They notably benefited from this privilege in the Loire estuary, granted in 1397 by the Duke of Brittany Jean IV1.

The fishermen of Trentemoult embarked in small flat-bottomed boats, called barges, two for fishing in the Loire and three for fishing at sea1. For the latter, they did not hesitate to venture as far as La Rochelle and Lorient. In the fall, they would go to Mesquer Bay for herring fishing. The years 1756 and 1757 were exceptional and would have brought a cumulative product of more than 300,000 pounds to the community, a real fortune.

The captains island

At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the sailors of Trentemousins ​​gradually abandoned fishing in favor of maritime trade: cabotage then long-haul. Trentemoult thus becomes, and this during all the century, one of the principal centers of recruitment of commercial officers for the port of Nantes. Among this large number of Trentemousin captains, we can quote the names of Julien Chauvelon, captain of Belem for 13 years, or of Georges Aubin, to whom we owe several accounts of maritime voyages.

At the same time, to meet the demand of these captains, shipyards developed in the islands, first in Trentemoult, then in Norkiouse for lack of space: the main ones being the Chauvelon and Lemerle shipyards in the first half of the 19th century, Boju, Clergeau and Tillé in the second half. At the height of the building sites, it was bricks and three-masted ships that emerged from the Trentemousine holds.

Decline and rebirth

At the end of the 19th century, the village was a popular place for the people of Nantes: the creation of the roquios line in 1887 made it easier to access regattas, swimming and open-air cafes. But, at the same time, the resident population became workers, mainly labor for the Nantes shipyards. In 1946, Trentemoult was considered unhealthy, and in 1970 the roquios line was abandoned.

In 1979, the creation of a marina revived interest in the site. The shooting of the film The White Queen, in 1990, made the village attractive again and the price of real estate increased there. The river connection with Nantes was reestablished in 2005. Although the village depends on Rezé, the tourist office includes it in its visit proposals, a sign of the renewed appeal of Trentemoult.

Habitat

The traditional fishermen's houses, adapted to the floods of the Loire, were generally built on three levels. The first, which was liable to flooding, was occupied by the storeroom, the living room being on the second level. The last level was occupied by an attic which could sometimes communicate with the adjoining attics, thus allowing the neighbors to meet without needing to use boats. The stairs were in principle exterior to directly access the living room during flooding. These were however sometimes doubled by an internal staircase. The construction of the quays (“Surcouf” from 1850, “Marcel-Boissard” between 1860 and 1888) reduced the risk of the river overflowing. The last memorable major floods are those of 1910 and 1935.

In the second half of the nineteenth century, captains, including Cape Horniers, feeling cramped in fishermen's houses, had bourgeois houses built around the old village, provided with pleasure gardens characterized by the presence of exotic plants brought back from their distant travels.

Nowadays, the fishermen's quarter has the particularity of having colorful houses with original and personalized facades. Having become a “trendy” district of the Nantes conurbation, a number of artists and relatively well-off families have settled there.

Cinema

The filmmaker Jean-Loup Hubert came to shoot The White Queen with Catherine Deneuve in 1990. Some vestiges of the decoration put in place for the occasion remain in 2009. Claude Chabrol also came to shoot La Demoiselle d'honneur in 2005.

Trentemoult still inspires young filmmakers, for example for the short film Trentemoult.

Kevin is liable to pop up anywhere in either of the Twin Cities.

His beard is quite long, but he keeps it tied and braided at several points along its length. He walks so slow, that I wonder how he can be so many places at one time.

We usually have a chat, but he was napping when I got on, and remained this way after I got off I imagine.'

It was one of those warm, cold days when the sun is shining, and the brightness tricks you into thinking "Spring has sprung.".

There was something about this toning that appealed to me. Perhaps it reflected the sunny, warm, ambience, and the 3 riders seemingly content . . . content enough to nap.

So the toning kinds of picks up on that motif of the deceptive appearance of warmth on a cold winter's day.

Yup. I'm referencing a Whitesnake song in that title. It's been stuck in my head for a couple days, and I'm blaming John Oliver's latest episode about Guantánamo for that.

So, this morning on my way to get my shot I passed a man who'd been at the same location since about 6am. He was quick to tell me that I've missed the magic and that I should have been there sooner in the day. I found that rather discouraging and could only shrug and tell him "we must be chasing different spells." That seemed to confuse him and he continued along his way.

It's too bad, he had some interesting gear and I would have liked to talk more to him, but I guess he'd said his piece and was ready to move.

My cold is starting to go away today; still have a sore throat and am still dizzy, but I have more energy than I've had all week, so that's a plus!

Things are starting to look up!

Hope everyone has had a great Friday!

The River Swale in Yorkshire is a major tributary of the River Ure, which itself becomes the River Ouse, eventually emptying into the North Sea via the Humber Estuary. The River flows for 73.2 miles from its source at the confluence of the Birkdale Beck and the Great Sleddale Beck, near Birkdale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Swale is from the Anglo-Saxon word ‘Sualuae’ meaning ‘rapid and liable to deluge’. It is said to be the fastest flowing river in England, its levels have been known to rise as much as 10 feet in 20 minutes.

Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

Originally from the Atlas Mountains and the Rif Mountains of Morocco, the Barbary macaque population in Gibraltar is the only wild monkey population on the European continent. Although most Barbary monkey populations in Africa are experiencing decline due to hunting and deforestation, the Gibraltar population is increasing. Currently, some 300 animals in five troops occupy the Upper Rock area of the Gibraltar Nature Reserve, though they make occasional forays into the town. As they are a tailless species, they are also known locally as Barbary apes or rock apes, despite being monkeys (Macaca sylvanus). The local people simply refer to them as monos (English: monkeys) when conversing in Spanish.

I thought I had never seen this butterfly, but......

This butterfly has white uppersides to its wings. It is only the males that have orange-tipped forewings; females have small black tips. In both sexes the undersides of the hindwings are mottled with moss-green. The orange tips warn predators that this butterfly is highly distasteful.

Orange-tips are common throughout lowland England and Wales, but are rarer in Scotland. Females lay single, pale, spindle-shaped eggs on the underside of flower buds. These eggs turn deep orange after a few days.

The caterpillars hatch and feed on the developing seed pod. They are green and extremely hard to spot. Orange-tip caterpillars are cannibalistic, liable to eat another of their own species should they meet. Each caterpillar leaves its foodplant to overwinter as a chrysalis, probably in bushes and tall vegetation. Adults emerge in April.

So it seems that Mole has escaped the rat race and taken to the open road - I think the others are all up at the front end of the caravan . I think they have a problem though because there was no sign of a horse - looks like the horse has legged it up the road leaving the caravan and all the characters behind . This is not surprising as a heavy old caravan with a bunch of odd characters liable to burst into song is not fun to drag along and as for that ear-worm of a song -- well try it and see !!

Es wird scho glei dumpa, es wird scho glei Nocht,

Drum kim i zu dir her, mei Heiland auf d’Wocht.

Will singan a Liadl, dem Liabling dem kloan,

Du mogst jo ned schlofn, i hear die lei woan.

Hei, hei, hei, hei!

Schlaf siaß, herzliabs Kind!

Vergiss hiaz, o Kinderl, dein Kummer, dei Load,

dass d’doda muaßt leidn im Stall auf da Hoad.

Es ziern ja die Engerl dei Liegerstatt aus.

Möcht schöna ned sein drin im König sein Haus.

Hei, hei, hei, hei!

Schlaf siaß, herzliabes Kind!

Ja Kinderl, du bist halt im Kripperl so schen,

mi ziemt, i kann nimmer da weg von dir gehn.

I wünsch dir von Herzen die süaßte Ruah,

die Engerl vom Himmel, die deckn di zua.

Hei, hei, hei, hei!

Schlaf siaß, herzliabes Kind!

Mach zua deine Äugal in Ruah und in Fried

und gib ma zum Abschied dein Segn no grad mit!

Aft wern ja mei Schlaferl a sorgenlos sein,

aft kann i mi ruahli aufs Niederlegn gfrein.

Hei, hei, hei, hei!

Schlaf siaß, herzliabes Kind!

(Österreichisches Weihnacht- und Wiegenlied, Anton Reidinger)

“Es wird scho glei dumpa” (“It will soon be dark”) is a Wiegenlied (“cradle song” or lullaby) in Austrian dialect. It first appeared in print in 1884. Also see a rare English version (“The Twilight Is Falling”)

In English:

It will soon be dark,

It will soon be night;

That’s why I come to you,

My Savior who’s awake.

I want to sing a little song

To the dear little one,

You don’t want to sleep,

I hear you just cry.

–

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye,

Sleep sweetly, dearest Child!

Forget now, little child,

Your grief, your sorrow

That you have to suffer

In the stable, on the heath.

Yes, the angels adorn

Your manger,

More beautifully

Than a king’s house.

–

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye,

Sleep sweetly, dearest Child!

Yes, little child, you’re

simply so beautiful in your crib

it seems I can never

leave you.

I wish you from the heart

the sweetest rest,

the angels from heaven

cover you up.

–

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye,

Sleep sweetly, dearest Child!

Close your little eyes

in peace and quiet,

and give me in parting

also thy blessing!

Then my sleep also

will be without worry,

then I can peacefully look

forward to lying down.

–

Hush-a-bye, hush-a-bye,

Sleep sweetly, dearest Child!

Another view of The Head on the road between Boonah and Queen Mary Falls, an on to Warwick in SE Queensland. The Condamine River rises in that valley then flows at a lower level as it wends its way to Killarney and on down through the Darling and Murray Rivers to South Australia. The road disappearing below is mainly for locals and is a dirt secondary road that follows the river to Killarney while the main road follows the heights and passes several falls including Queen Mary and Daggs on its way to the same town. The river is denoted by the line of trees in the middle of the shot.

It reminds me of Carol King's wonderful song "Way Over Yonder" which has some special significance for me and is one of the few songs of which I know all the words and liable for burst into song with her. I am in great demand with the neighbourhood cats on a full moon night!

Way Over Yonder

Way over yonder

Is a place that I know

Where I can find shelter

From a hunger and cold

And the sweet tastin' good life

Is so easily found

A way over yonder, that's where I'm bound

I know when I get there

The first thing I'll see

Is the sun shining golden

Shining right down on me

Then trouble's gonna lose me

Worry leave me behind

And I'll stand up proudly

In true peace of mind

Talkin' about

Talkin' about

A way over yonder

Is a place I have seen

In a garden of wisdom

From some long ago dream

Oh yeah

Ooh maybe tomorrow

I'll find find my way

To the land where the honey runs

In rivers each day

And the sweet tastin' good life

Is so easily found

A way over yonder

That's where I'm bound

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

A way over yonder

That's where I'm bound

The old cobbled road through the miliitary training area is locally known as "Panzerstraße" 'tank road'. It has probably been constructed in imperial times and is in a remarkable condition for its age and the minimal maintainance work it requires. Unlike tarmac it is not liable to potholes during winter. But then it does rattle your bones anyway...

Allan Water (Scottish Gaelic: Uisge Alain) is a river in central Scotland. Rising in the Ochil Hills, it runs through Strathallan to Dunblane and Bridge of Allan before joining the River Forth. It is liable to cause floods in lower Bridge of Allan.

Actually this probably is the most famous roof in Brittany... This is the coast guard house in Meneham... You may have seen images of this house before... it is situated between two huge rocks at the left and right.

I took two versions of the image... this first one has been photo-bombed by another tourist... after processing the images, I found the bombed-one even better...

Firstly, apologies to my flickr friends if I haven't quite checked out your photos in the last couple of days. It's been a busy week and with ANZAC Day tomorrow, liable to get busier (and our 44th wedding anniversary). I am so out of touch I thought it was Wednesday (I really blame the flu vax) but then, well it's still Wednesday on the US West Coast in Brisbane, California (if not Brisbane, Australia) and Hawaii! This window is in the Museum of Brisbane and looks out onto the dome of the main auditorium. Happy belated local Window Wednesday.
