This blossom is as wide as your hand. I've been lucky and gotten it to bloom three years in a row. Working to get old flashes to work with new camera, work in progress.
Cape Mays have such a wonderful variation of plumage in the fall from very drab to fully rich yellow colour.
St.Perer`s Church in Malmö Sweden
The interior of the Church remains mainly in accordance with its orginal plan,including elegantly shaped pillars and arches.The rich frescoes that covered the vault during the middle ages were hidden from the eye in the year 1555 when the entire edifice was whitewashed.During a restoration carried out in the 1850,all traces of the former frescoes were scraped away.

I do not know this bird by name. I have seen it in the canopy of this yew tree and was so happy to snap a few shots. I believe it may be a Cape May Warbler, a migrating bird through our region. For some reason I was reading about bird migration today and from one article to the other I got to Cornell Lab and from there, to this website to birdcast.info The article in the BirdCast.info states: "Mass mortality in the southern Rockies: smoke, climate change, and bird migration". And it just broke my heart. Hundreds of thousands of migrating birds were recently found dead in New Mexico. The article was posted on September 15, 2020. So it is fresh. The investigation is just under way to determine what caused so many deaths in the migrating birds. There is also a link to a CNN article worth reading. But it will take months to evaluate the reasons. This devastating news prompt me to dedicate this image to all the warblers, eastern phoebes, and other migratory birds that did not make it. May the other arrive in health in their journey.
Posting my last image of the Daisy gave me a little spring fever. I remembered this photo of the Scrub Jay collecting nesting material. For single-image capture, I will use DxO Pure Raw when there are complex areas, such as the nesting fibers. It will clean the noise without leaving a halo of noise behind. Captured with my Z9 and 70-200mm Z lens at f/2.8

Our new couch arrived yesterday and after finding someone to take our old couch for free yesterday evening, Scott got to assembling the new one this morning.
Didn't take long for the animals to settle in. This couch has a wide back and it looks like Tigs approved.
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

The common name of the species comes from Cape May, New Jersey, where Alexander Wilson first described it. After that first time, Cape May Warblers were not recorded in Cape May for more than 100 years.
