My ritual ,burning my numbers pyro shredding watching them get less and less untill theyre ash and blow away on a gust of wind .A gesture of defiance against bills !
But then they come again so you cant win just pay!
Numbers are universal and are everywhere we look. I often wonder how the world would manage if there were no numbers.
What do you think?
NB: The above are NZ petrol prices, per litre, at a discount petrol retailer. They equate to about US$7.89 per gallon.

These numbers were written on an old mail box on a building in the old part of the town I live in. They call that part of town "Olde Town".
Thanks to Nick I was able to repost this photo with the more accurate (Yes, I know it is hard to believe) color profile from the friendly neighbor's garage door. Do you think Levi looks traumatized having to stand next to it? :)
(Old posting:
What's up with that???--I uploaded this photo and the color looks nothing like how it is in my photo browser. The red and blue are blinding. Hard to imagine that someone around the block from us has this painted on their garage door.)
We've already got 2 N°27s and both are far prettier than this one. Which was pretty much a standard design in Perros. Although this one looks like it was two number stuck together.

Dreaming of my number ten
Who i see, every day when
I do measure, my feelings deep
That fill my day and my sleep
With sweet dreams, i do measure
With sweet thoughts of my treasure
Who fills my thoughts and my slumber
She is my ten, such a beautiful number

When I visited St Kilda in 2021 Great Skuas were a common sight but in 2022 I did not see a single Great Skua on the islands, although we did see small numbers at sea. They were hit hard by bird flu and according to this BBC piece www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-61867211 a hundred and twenty Great Skuas had been found dead on St Kilda with bird flu by late June 2022. This is in addition to 60 bird flu deaths last breeding season. Scotland supports about 56% of the global population of this species classed as vulnerable by IUCN but I suspect bird flu may upgrade the conservation status of this species. The Scottish population was 9650 breeding pairs in 2002, largely on the Hebrides and Northern Isles, but I don't know what the impact of bird flu has been elsewhere in Scotland on this species. I suspect the next census will show a considerably depleted population I photographed this wing-flashing adult on St Kilda in 2021.
I literally have - then finally got some shots in the morning heatwave above a ripened crop field.
The numbers are down and so is the general bird song this year.
Less is more LOL...
Yellow-bellied sapsuckers are in the woodpecker family, related to the more common downy, hairy and red-bellied species we have at Lake Meyer Park. Yellow-bellied sapsuckers nest here too, but in very low numbers. This juvenile is drilling holes in a quaking aspen tree to start some sap flowing so it can come back later to suck up the sap and any bugs that might be attracted there too. Note the broad white swoosh on its wing.
