The magnificent tree frog, also known as the splendid tree frog, is a tree frog species first described in 1977. It has a limited range, only occurring on the north-western coast of Australia in the Northern Territory and Western Australia.
That's it's name Magnificent/Splendid Tree Frog and it deserves it.
Have a lovely day
The Bateleur is a colourful species with a very short tail which, together with its white underwing coverts, makes it unmistakable in flight. The tail is so small the bird's legs protrude slightly beyond the tail during flight.
The average adult Bateleur is 55 to 70 cm long with a 186 cm wingspan. The wing chord averages approximately 51 cm. Adult weight is ±2 to 2.6kg.

This magnificent flambé had the courtesy to come and forage on our lavenders last week, in fact they were 2 but the other one had lost one of its tails, this one is intact for the moment, I hope they will come again.
With a maximum wingspan of 8 cm, the flambé is a cream-colored butterfly with large black stripes. Its tails are black and the tips of its hind wings have blue lunules and red spots. It lives in plains and orchards up to 2000 m between May and August.
Thanks a lot dear friends for your visits, kind comments, awards, invites, and faves.
Wish you all a nice week❤️

I was born, I was born to be with you
In this space and time
After that, and ever after, I haven't had a clue, only to regret
This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue, oh
Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can leave such a scar
I was born, I was born to sing for you
I didn't have a choice
To lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to
I give you back my voice, from the womb
My first cry, it was a joyful noise, oh
Only love, only love can leave such a mark
And only love, only love can leave such a scar
Just a fire, till we die, you and I will magnify
Oh magnificent, magnificent

This magnificent 20,000-square-foot mansion was built in 1899-1901 for self-made millionaire and Senator George Taylor Fulford I (1852-1905) and his family. The house was designed by noted American architect Albert W. Fuller, with landscaping design by the prestigious Olmsted Brothers firm.
Fulford Place and its collection were donated to the Ontario Heritage Trust by the Fulford family in 1991. Many items from the family’s collection are exhibited in the house just as they were over 100 years ago. The Ontario Heritage Trust’s extensive restoration of Fulford Place brings to life the glamorous lifestyle of the early 20th century’s new aristocracy: the business tycoon

One from a trip in 2021. Elgol really is a place I feel I must visit each time I'm on Skye, it just seems to have everything a photographer craves, not least mountains that go into the sea and more often than not, moody light.
