The River Ure between the village of Aldwark and the Aldwark Toll Bridge in North Yorkshire, England
The River Ure is a river in North Yorkshire, England, approximately 74 miles (119 km) long from its source to the point where it changes name to the River Ouse. It is the principal river of Wensleydale, which is the only one of the major Dales now named after a village rather than its river. (Wiki)
More or less opposite Gorinchem on the other side of the river lies Woudrichem, a beautiful little fortified town. The historical town harbour has become the home of traditional, permanently inhabited ships such as tjalks, clippers and barges. At least three harbours, along with the Visserij- en Cultuurhistorisch museum (fishing and culture museum) bear witness to the age old connection with the river and salmon fishery.
The fortified town of Woudrichem was once a refuge for the countess of Zeeland, Holland and Henegouwen, Jacoba van Beieren (1401-1436). She owned a castle and a house in Woudrichem. Generally known as the Jacoba van Beierenhuis (house of Jacoba van Beieren), the building is situated at Molenstraat number 2. This is the oldest stone house in the stronghold. Those who wish to follow in her footsteps won’t have it easy. Jacoba was a pugnacious woman who fought with her uncle Jan van Beieren and others over land ownership. On 13th February 1419 she signed a peace treaty with her uncle called 'De Plechtige Zoen van Woudrichem' (solemn reconciliation of Woudrichem).
Woudrichem, or Woerkum, is easy to explore on one’s own. Visitors are surprised by the narrow lanes, vast river views and historical buildings. Prefer to get out of town on a walking route? The Stadswandeling Woudrichem (walking tour of Woudrichem) can be obtained from the VVV (tourist office) in the centre of the fort. Or if you’d like to get out with a group, the Stadgidsengilde (town guides’ guild) is at the ready to take businesses, groups of friends or families along for a walk in the footsteps of Jacoba van Beieren.

Mushrooms are fungi which are further classified as saprophytes. Saprophytes live on decaying plant matter and dead wood. They break it down until carbon dioxide and minerals remain. They are an essential link in the food chain because they convert the organic matter from decomposed or diseased organisms into inorganic substances. In doing so, they provide the necessary nutrients for green plants.
This is a conservative or low Amish topless buggy clipping along in-2F temperatures. In this area there are two Amish settlements competing for souls and money. Conservative Amish don't allow tops on buggies which limits travel and marks a line of difference with the liberal Amish with their fancy warm buggies.... The conservative group is of southern Germany heritage and language. They have allowed fewer capitalist innovations involving technology and ways of making a living. The other group, after a schism, has embraced global capital flows of value and technology by relying on one of the big three Agricultural corporation to develop a vast system of feeder cattle factory farms. Large semi-open structures have been built to confine a large number of head in a small area (called a CAFO). (there are images of these structures in the Amish folder/album. These "liberal Amish" contract with the outside English people to house their cattle and to work for the Amish. Us "English" provide transportation and ability to use certain technologies that make these huge operations possible. Their wealth has swelled and they have put the money toward the building of large fancy homes that look like suburban houses. The low Amish require people to work on less capital intensive farms. They are not allowed to work in factories. They get by with labor intensive small scale agricultural practices and more humble or low in their consumption. Their homes are rag tag cobbled together structures that are "messy". The high Amish tear down old early 20th and late 19th Century homes to build fancy "McMansions". This leads to another plane of competition to "be in this world but not of this world" Being not of this world means being humble or plain. The liberal Amish think that the less technologically up to date Amish are being prideful and vain or showing off in trying to be "more Amish". The liberal or high churches wear brighter colorful clothes of pink or purple while the conservative churches wear black, dark blue or black. This visual boundary maintains a marriage and social barrier requiring endogamy. Flows of women and capital remain within each group ensuring wealth and social bonds remain within each group. There is a hot cold war between the two groups. The farm in the background is a large English family/corporate farm

Fruit bats or Flying Foxes as we generally call them having their daytime rest at the Redcliffe Botanic Gardens. They move around quite a lot and roost in different patches of the gardens - this time they were mainly above the thick canopy of trees and hard to get decent shots of. They also seemed to have been roosting on top of the many tracks which meant for a very sticky and unpleasant walk. Better luck next time I say.
They reminded us very much of the Galahs which come to feed at our place, continuously grouching at each other.
Rethymno, or Rethimno, is a city on the north coast of the Greek island of Crete. In the old town, the Venetian Harbor is filled with fishing boats and lined with tavernas. Rethymno Lighthouse was built in the 1830s. West, the hilltop Fortezza is a star-shaped, 16th-century citadel. The Historical and Folklore Museum preserves local crafts like textiles and ceramics. Long, sandy Rethymno Beach stretches to the east. ― Google
Wagtails at the lake near my home have one juvenile.
He is as big than mom and dad, and soooo noisy :)
Easy for the photographer to find them now
For this one I was on a bridge and the wagtails in tree over the lake or under the bridge on the ground
ps : in the shadow of big trees over the lake so very high ISO for this one
