While most people think of toads as land creatures hopping about in the woods, there are also aquatic toads sharing a similar relationship to fresh water habitats as frogs.

 

This aquatic toad is sunbathing on a hyacinth plant, joined by a young frog on a leaf less than an inch away. It’s interesting that the small frog chose to keep company with the much larger toad, considering unoccupied vegetation was available. Perhaps their similar color made the frog believe they were part of the same species.

 

The dark lumps on the toad are actually glands growing outside the body.

 

Beneath the toad is a leaf containing several frog eggs. The minute plants clinging to this leaf and floating above the toad are duckweed.

I love you honey ♥♥♥

  

I'll give you some time

The church called Panagia Poulati was built in 1871 and every year's celebration day takes place at the 15th of August. Visitors usually admire the imposing steeples which are an example of the wonderful old cycladic architecture. You will also admire the beautiful fence, paved with flagstones, leading to the halls, the tombs and the cells.

Most of us railfans spend a lot of time dodging lightning bolts and other disasters that the railfan wizard's throw at us. But on a real "Semaphore Sunday" back in 1989, the railfan wizard's decided to play nice and toss us a bonus by running trains on the "wrong" track. Sure helps to get a bonus once in a while, and for better shots at a number of blades. Here we see a Susie-Q eastbound freight rolling against current of traffic, with two B-boats and a Flare handling a D&H "Designated Operators" freight.

Probably the most famous jewel of Granada. The Alhambra. A building complex which was extended in the course of the century always further. It is mentioned from the 9th century. In the 13th century Alhambra became the main residence of the Nazrides. In the 15th century the fortress fell into the hands of the Catholic kings.

 

In the foreground the oldest district in Granada, Albaicín. Very picturesque by its narrow streets and white, old buildings. You can get to the viewpoint with a view of Alhambra by bus. Or, even better, stroll through the alleys about 2 km from the castle.

Das wohl bekannteste Juwel von Granada. Die Alhambra. Ein Baukomplex welcher im Laufe der Jahrhundert immer weiter ausgebaut wurde. Erwähnt wird er ab den 9ten Jahrhundert. Im 13ten Jahrhundert wurde Alhambra zu der Hauptresidenz der Nasriden. Im 15ten Jahrhundert fiel die Festung in die Hände der katholischen Könige.

 

Im Vordergrund das älteste Stadtviertel in Granada, Albaicín. Sehr pittoresk durch seine engen Gassen und weiße, alte Gebäude. Zum Aussichtspunkt mit Sicht auf Alhambra kann man mit Bus gelangen. Oder, was noch besser ist, ca. 2 km von der Burg durch die Gassen schlendern.

The bridge in the background further upriver is the Cannon Street Railway Bridge.

 

The water to the left is known as River Walbrook.

 

The Walbrook is a subterranean river in the City of London that gave its name to the Walbrook City ward and a minor street in its vicinity. The Walbrook is one of many "lost" rivers of London, the most famous of which is the River Fleet.

The most beautiful sunset of the week during our stay in Puerto de Mogán… and I only had mobile phone with me…luckily with a good camera. Later in the week, when properly geared and whaiting for sunset that failed to materialise in full glory. Typical luck! Puerto de Mogán, Gran Canaria, Spain.

The most beautiful way to start a new year from your life is with a grateful heart.

If you find you have a few words to say about what I have done they will be much appreciated.

My best regards to you.... Martin

Most generally a zipper opens going down and closes going up, I want to be the up zip that unifies and strengthens, not the downer zip that lets it all out. 😊 my thought for the day, small like a macro.

Oberg Mountain is a 3 mile moderate hike. High overlooks along Oberg give wonderful views of Lake Superior, Oberg Lake and Moose Mountain.

 

I was disappointed when I saw that most of the trees were beyond peak colors. It was still a fun hike on a nice fall day.

Most people don't realize that the female Red-Winged Blackbird looks so different from the male.

The crater lake Lagoa do Fogo, also called Lake of Fire. It is located at an altitude of 575 metres on the island of São Miguel in the Azores and is said to be the most beautiful of its kind. It has an average diameter of 3 kilometres with a water depth of 400 metres at its deepest point.

With an age of 250,000-300,000 years, it is the youngest crater in the Azores.

The last violent eruption of Pico do Fogo, documented for the first time, was in June 1563.

The crater is often shrouded in fog and clouds and thus remains hidden from view.

Der Kratersee Lagoa do Fogo, auch Feuersee gennant. Er liegt auf 575 m Höhe auf der Insel São Miguel in den Azoren und soll der schönste seiner Art sein. Er hat einen durchschnittlichen Durchmesser von 3 Kilometer mit einer Wassertiefe an der tiefsten Stelle von 400 Metern.

Mit einem Alter von 250.000-300.000 Jahren ist er der jüngste Krater der Azoren.

Der letzte heftige und erstmals dokumentierte Ausbruch des Pico do Fogo war im Juni 1563.

Oft ist der Krater in Nebel und Wolken verhüllt und bleibt dem Betrachter somit verborgen.

With most shortlines generally operating on weekdays, I had to take advantage of an entire Wednesday off work yesterday. Initially I had planned to head east to Delaware on good authority that ESPN would run a blue and yellow trio out of Wilsmere, but when I punched this into the GPS I must've had a brainfart of some sort, as it began taking me west towards the MMID. By the time I noticed my mistake I was already half way to Union Bridge, so turning around would've been of a low mental standard. Instead I caught up to UBHF at Thurmont, where I was very pleasantly surprised to see a lashup of three flared 40's and a pair of oldies in tow, lined up with the 2060 facing east for the return. After a westbound chase to Highfield, I set up in Sabillasville after scoping out all the possible eastbound angles and settled for this winner. A nerve-wracking two hours later, and surely not long before the shadows consumed the ROW, the screaming dynamics of the MMID quintet could be heard roaring down the mountain, and a scene for the ages was converted into pixels.

view of the western part (from the outer garden) of the Walewscy Palace in Walewice

 

Classicist building designed by Hilary Szpilowski or Stanislaw Zawadzki, built in 1773-1783 by Anastazy Walewski (chamberlain to King Stanislaw August Poniatowski); located on the Mroga River.

 

The palace is counted among the most interesting examples of classicist country seats in Poland, built at the end of the 18th century. The front faces east. It consists of a one-story rectangular main body and one-story side pavilions, also built on a rectangular plan, connected with the main body by communication galleries broken at right angles. The premise is based on the Palladian style, very popular in Poland in the second half of the 18th and first 19th centuries. From the front, the palace has a massive, four-column Ionic battered portico topped with a triangular pediment (tympanum) with the coat of arms of Pomian, the later owner Stanislaw Grabiński. From the garden there are two prominent extreme (side) risalits. Inside the palace, large representative halls with decorative brick fireplaces and elaborate furnishings were created, as well as spacious palace rooms. In one of the pavilions original painted wallpaper from the 19th century with mythological motifs has been preserved.

 

On May 4, 1810, the son of Napoleon Bonaparte and Maria Walewska, Alexander Colonna-Walewski, later French ambassador to Great Britain and foreign minister to Napoleon III, was born there. He also became heir to the estate, which he sold to Maria Walewska's brother, Teodor Łączyński, in 1831.

 

Much of the palace's charm is added by the perfect composition of the building with an extensive landscape park designed by Walerian Kronenberg. Original late Baroque and classicist sandstone sculptures depicting Mars, Venus, and Diana have been preserved there, as well as two hermits and an armed man in ancient costume.

 

In the mid-19th century, the palace and its estate passed into the hands of the Grabiński family of the Pomian coat of arms. The Grabinskis modernized and rebuilt the palace at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, established a stud farm for half-breed horses (Anglo-Arabians), developed the breeding of cockerel sheep (the only one in the country), a huge fish farm (on more than 100 hectares of ponds), a factory of potato flour and starch. The last owners of Walewice were papal chamberlain Stanislaw Bohdan Grabiński and his wife Jadwiga, née hr. Potocki, and after his death in 1930 their minor children Stanislaw Wojciech, Maria, Wladyslaw, Róża and Jan Grabiński. The palace still contains some of the furnishings and furniture from the last owners.

 

During World War II, on the night of September 9-10, 1939, the 17th Regiment of Wielkopolska Uhlans from Gniezno of the Wielkopolska Cavalry Brigade fought battles for the Palace and the village of Walewice during the Battle of the Bzura River.

Most of you know I have a small obsession with feathers. I just love their patterned, colourful beauty and intricacy. When my nephew is with me, he and I spend a lot of time on our walks looking at the ground!

 

I found these blue beauties across the road from my home. I think they've most likely become detached from a Crimson Rosella, although there are a few other possible candidates. And yes, the feathers really are that blue.

Most of these moored boats are sitting in large puddles at low tide.

The city of Romanov-Borisoglebsk in the Yaroslavl region (since 1918 - Tutaev) includes the once independent cities, spread out on the opposite banks of the Volga and united in 1822.

 

On the right bank is Borisoglebsk, the former Borisoglebskaya Sloboda (1238), on the left is the town of Romanov (1283).

 

On the Borisoglebskaya side of the ancient city one of the most magnificent temples of the 2nd half of the 17th century - the Resurrection Cathedral - rises.

Most of this herd of grazing cattle came over to check me out when I stopped and walked up to the fence.

Greenwich Beach maybe one of PEI’s best kept secrets it is one the least visited parts of the PEI National Park and quite possibly the most photogenic. Km’s of hiking trails spill through the highest dunes on the Island with boardwalks like the one pictured here leading to all sorts of grand views or really in my humble opinion being the view itself. I love leading lines and they really come into their own when they are organic in nature like the soft curves of this boardwalk as it leads your eye through the frame.

These are my husband's glasses (with tinted / sun glasses on top) resting on his leg while reading / relaxing in the urban gardens ... and I somehow was immediately reminded of the Moomins : ))

Loved them when I was a kid

 

Just for fun ... hope I can make you smile

As I was driving into work, the morning sun was making its way thru the mist and fog, trees are just starting to burst with color and I couldn't help myself but to pull over and take it all in. I drove up on this ridge and parked. I walked up to the open gates and noticed several small spider webs, glistening from the dew in the morning sun and started snapping away, I was very excited to see these come out so well on my iPhone. Tiny moments otherwise unwitnessed, my "stopping to smell the roses" moment.

Looking West Sunrise from a Western view point, most of these tend to be bland, this was full of nice clouds, shot in North Carolina.

Castell Coch can be seen on the hillside as you travel West outside Cardiff

This building is chiefly known as a romantic folly supposedly reproducing a small medieval Welsh chieftain's stronghold, built in the 1870s, for the 3rd Marquess of Bute to a design by William Burges, and possessing the most remarkable interior decoration. However, it was built upon the remains of a genuine 13th century castle built in two stages.

The monastery, the most ancient and sacred Christian site in the lands that belonged to Kievan Rus, was founded in the XI century when prince Izyaslav granted the whole mountain to monks. Pictured here is the main church of the monastery, the Assumption cathedral; it was built originally by prince Svyatoslav in XI century, but was rebuilt completely three times: in XIII century after an earthquake, in XVIII century after a major fire, and in XX century after destruction during WW II.

Oh, Sunlight! The most precious gold to be found on Earth.

American Goldfinch numbers have been increasing recently in my yard but they have ate most of the sunflower seeds so they may go somewhere else. Next year I need to grow more sunflowers. A couple of chickadees were checking for seeds yesterday but not sure they found any. Now that the birds ate all of the seeds from my plants I will feed them a few sunflower seeds occasionally.

* One of the most extraordinary aspects of the city of Bologna is its amazing range of porticos. Today the historic centre of Bologna, that is to say the area included into the city walls of the thirteenth century, contains some 38 kilometres (23 miles) of porticos build during a long historic period from the eleventh to the twentieth century. It was very hot while we there but you could walk almost everywhere in the shade of these porticos. No doubt in bad weather you would be equally protected from rain and snow. Many Italian cities had extensive systems of porticos but most got rid of many of them to allow the roads to be widened. Bologna has chosen to put people before cars, which is a change. They are very pleasing to walk through, light and shadows constantly change under them. I took quite a few shots of these architectural features some of them will no doubt appear later in my stream.

Most of the cone flowers here have given way to the summer heat. Petals are dropping, cones are drooping over (sorta how I feel out in the humid hot summers of Arkansas). But found this lone cone in fairly good shape with the help of part day shade.

Despite being the commonest and most widespread UK bird of prey, it was still a priviIege and thrill to get so close to this wild bird.

 

I had to fire shots off one at a time or in small bursts as the shutter noise was distracting this buzzard from devouring its pigeon.

 

It is quite large with broad, rounded wings, and a short neck and tail. When gliding and soaring it will often hold its wings in a shallow 'V' and the tail is fanned. Birds are variable in colour from all dark brown to much paler variations, all have dark wingtips and a finely barred tail. Their plaintive mewing call could be mistaken for a cat.
