Life is a miracle, in all its forms.

Unstoppable, astoundingly creative, resilient but also so fragile and vulnerable.

We are its protectors and stewards.

We saw a fantastic concert last night by Ian Felice, and this was one of the standout songs he performed, though they were all superb. It is a wonderful life, and it's important to make the most of it.

Thanks for your visit and comments, my friends. In these demanding times, we have to find some bright spots in everyday life. The light has always been there, and it will guide us. I hope you're all staying safe and healthy):

"Love is the Water of Life"

 

Rumi

I traveled on Tonle Sap in a very “basic” boat, and was fortunate to find a local boatman, who was able to take me close to shore and “beach” the boat several times so I could see life there as it really was. The family living here supplemented their income by raising pigs seen center foreground. Some were kept in very small crates, others allowed to walk freely in the space between houses. Some of the crates were constructed so they would float tethered to the main home when the lake waters rose to the level of the houses. Because of the change in water levels as the water flows in and out of the Mekong, the houses on the lake are built on stilts to allow for the 8-9 meter rise in the water level during the rainy season.

This image shows how life is harsh for both predator and prey. This male lion was feeding at a kill site in the Masai Mara national reserve on my 2019 trip. There was a large pride present with lions of all ages at the scene. We hung around for some time to watch breakfast being consumed before we headed back to camp to have our own.

 

Note the flies present on the lion. Everything plays its role in our ecosystems and should be valued as a result.

Still life

"When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too.”

Quote - Paulo Coelho

 

During the renovation I did occasionally pick up the camera, because there were unique moments, like this still life ;-))

Have a wonderful start of your weekend!

Life cannot be lived fully or joyfully if

our thoughts are focused on regretting the past,

preoccupied with anticipating the future,

or lost in the mind-fog of unconscious habitual behavior.

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

One of the important life lessons in this house is........YOU DON'T MESS WITH THE CATS. Lucy's tail is at the top of the photo as she's sitting on the table with her head peering over the other side glaring at Emily. Emily has learned that she can practice her puppy shenanigans with everyone in the house except the cats. The cats get along with all of the dogs as long as the dogs follow the cat rules. Emily is a few days shy of 6 months old.

Argynnis paphia

Der Silberstrich oder Kaisermantel ist der größte mitteleuropäische Perlmutterfalter. Dieser hatte wohl schon heftigere Begegnungen, ein Stück vom Flügel fehlt.

The Emperor's Cloak is the largest Central European mother-of-pearl butterfly. It probably had more violent encounters, a piece of the wing is missing.

Another favourite photograph taken by a visiting friend, a wonderful photographer, in winter 2018, and processed by me this week.

 

The image posted below in the first comment box is also from the series of images taken by my friend during winter 2018.

Sorry about the previous confusing intro!!! :-( Tho I wish I could perform the magic editing imagined... it's beyond me.

 

Last winter (2019) there was an abundance of wild food and it was also a very mild winter.. so no birds needed feeding here. This year there is real winter... and to my amazement, after 20 months away, the silvereyes returned.. and remembered me. Well... they remembered peanut butter ;-) On their first day back some even nibbled it from my fingers. Now they come to meet me. The brave ones land on my hand to eat, the clever ones find the peanut butter jar in my other hand :-) On the first day one jumped repeatedly on my head but not at all since. Another landed on my lens barrel, looked me straight in the eye, and told me to get on to more important things :-)

 

here's to patience, trust and peanut butter

happy free from fences friday ;-)

  

In spite of some of the following images, overall life as a hummer just can't be beat !!!

Four months without you, dad

Missing you every day

without your love

Tell me who am I

without you by my side…”
