As the seasons change, some low-lying clouds remind me that stormy days are ahead. But for now, I enjoy the September colors at the end of the day.

El Rio GuadalentÃn nace en la Sierra del Pozo, en el Parque Natural de las Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y las Villas, concretamente en el municipio jiennese de Pozo Alcon, formándose de pequeños arroyos que bajan de la sierra de la Cabrilla a la altura del Majal de la Carrasca, donde recibe al Arroyo de los Arenales y ya con cauce permanente fluye por el fondo de un profundo barranco en dirección sur.
Hasta su llegada al embalse de la Bolera, recibe aguas del Arroyo de San Pedro, del Arroyo de los Tornillos de Gualay, del Arroyo de las Acebadillas y del Arroyo FrÃo, para despues, y en dicho embalse recibir aguas del Arroyo de Guazalamanco, del Arroyo de la Rambla, del Arroyo de la Venta y del Arroyo del Vidrio.
Bajo el pantano atraviesa la Cerrada de la Bolera y el Paraje de Peralta, entre otros, recibiendo aguas del Arroyo de la Alcantarilla y de un nacimiento que surge del Peñon de Peralta.
Este rio desemboca en el rÃo Guadiana Menor, uno de los principales afluentes del Rio Guadalquvir,i a la altura del Pantano del NegratÃn, entre los municipios granadinos de Cuevas del Campo y Zújar.

Kanavinsky Bridge is the oldest permanent crossing over the Oka and Grebnevsky Canal in Nizhny Novgorod. It is located at 1.2 km of the river, next to the Strelka - the confluence of the Oka and Volga. It connects two parts of the city - Nagornaya and Zarechnaya. Initially it was called Pakhomovsky, then after a short time it became Oksky, and after the opening of the second Molitovsky bridge in 1965, it was renamed Kanavinsky - after the name of the district.
Until the beginning of the 19th century. the townspeople traveled to the Kanavino area and back by ferry and boats, and in winter they crossed over the ice. The urgent need for a crossing between the two banks of the Oka was ripe after the fair was moved to the other side - to the Zarechnaya part of Nizhny Novgorod, to Strelka. From mid-July to early September, the Gostiny Dvor was visited by more than 150 thousand people, while the city's population was no more than 18 thousand inhabitants. The decision to build a permanent crossing was made in 1920, but work began only 10 years later. The bridge was built in Nizhny Novgorod in 1.5 years from 1932 to 1933, but the official time frame is 5 years. The Kanavinsky Bridge has an arched structure: the load is distributed between six arches, over which transport and pedestrian traffic is carried out. The massive pillars are made of metal concrete, the road surface is made of asphalt concrete. The Kanavinsky Bridge is 795.5 m long and 23.6 m wide.
The arch bridge survived two German bombings and escaped serious damage thanks to the use of a smoke screen. In the post-war years, the coating and structures were repaired several times, but without blocking traffic.
Wave after wave
Will flow with the tide
And bury the world as it does
Tide after tide
Will flow and recede
Leaving life to go on
As it was......

Kunstgewerbemuseum (Museum of Decorative Arts),
Berlin
"Das Kunstgewerbemuseum ist das älteste seiner Art in Deutschland. Es beherbergt weltberühmte Zeugnisse des europäischen Kunsthandwerks und Designs, darunter prunkvolle Reliquiare aus Gold und Edelstein, kostbare Vasen aus Glas oder Porzellan, fein bestickte Kleider, detailreich intarsierte Möbel bis hin zu Klassikern modernen Industriedesigns. (...)
Das Haus am Kulturforum entstand bis 1985 nach den Entwürfen von Rolf Gutbrod, einem der führenden deutschen Architekten der 1960er-Jahre. Kennzeichnend für seine Architektur ist die Sichtbarkeit konstruktiver Elemente. Das Museum ist als "gebaute Landschaft" gedacht und nimmt mit seiner Begrünung Bezug auf den benachbarten Tiergarten. Während das Gebäude nach außen geschlossen wirkt, empfängt es den Eintretenden mit einem offenen Treppenhaus und großzügigen Ausstellungsräumen. (...)
Von 2012 bis 2014 wurde der Gutbrot-Bau vom Architekturbüro Kuehn Malvezzi in weiten Teilen umgestaltet." www.smb.museum/museen-und-einrichtungen/kunstgewerbemuseu...
Horseshoe Bay is a community of about 1,000 permanent residents, located in West Vancouver, in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Situated on the western tip of West Vancouver at the entrance to Howe Sound, the village marks the western end of Highway 1 on mainland British Columbia (and furthermore the main route of the Trans-Canada Highway on the Canadian mainland). It also serves as the southern end of the Sea-to-Sky Highway, with Lions Bay just 15 minutes north.
Horseshoe Bay is the location of the third-busiest BC Ferries terminal, the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal. Wikipedia

Das Topplerschlösschen ist ein kleiner spätmittelalterlicher Wohnturm im Taubertal bei Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Es wurde vom Rothenburger Bürgermeister Heinrich Toppler im Jahr 1388 im Bautyp eines sogenannten Weiherhauses, einer Sonderform des Festen Hauses, als Sommerhaus errichtet. Es besteht aus einem steinernen Unterbau in der Art eines Wehrturms und Obergeschossen aus Fachwerk. Es ist von einem Graben umgeben, der durch eine Quelle geflutet wurde.
Kleine Herrenhäuser dieses Typus waren im Spätmittelalter häufig, sind jedoch äußerst selten erhalten.

The Topplerschlösschen is a small late medieval residential tower in the Tauber Valley near Rothenburg ob der Tauber. It was built by the mayor of Rothenburg, Heinrich Toppler, in 1388 as a so-called pond house, a special type of permanent house, as a summer house. It consists of a stone substructure in the manner of a defense tower and upper floors made of half-timbering. It is surrounded by a ditch that was flooded by a spring.
Small mansions of this type were common in the late Middle Ages, but have survived extremely rarely.

Cattle Egret - Bubulcus ibis
The cattle egret (Bubulcus ibis) is a cosmopolitan species of heron (family Ardeidae) found in the tropics, subtropics and warm temperate zones.
It is a white bird adorned with buff plumes in the breeding season. It nests in colonies, usually near bodies of water and often with other wading birds. The nest is a platform of sticks in trees or shrubs. Cattle egrets exploit drier and open habitats more than other heron species. Their feeding habitats include seasonally inundated grasslands, pastures, farmlands, wetlands and rice paddies. They often accompany cattle or other large mammals, catching insect and small vertebrate prey disturbed by these animals. Some populations of the cattle egret are migratory and others show post-breeding dispersal.
The cattle egret has undergone one of the most rapid and wide reaching natural expansions of any bird species.It was originally native to parts of Southern Spain and Portugal, tropical and subtropical Africa and humid tropical and subtropical Asia. In the end of the 19th century it began expanding its range into southern Africa, first breeding in the Cape Province in 1908. Cattle egrets were first sighted in the Americas on the boundary of Guiana and Suriname in 1877, having apparently flown across the Atlantic Ocean. It was not until the 1930s that the species is thought to have become established in that area.
The species first arrived in North America in 1941 (these early sightings were originally dismissed as escapees), bred in Florida in 1953, and spread rapidly, breeding for the first time in Canada in 1962. It is now commonly seen as far west as California. It was first recorded breeding in Cuba in 1957, in Costa Rica in 1958, and in Mexico in 1963, although it was probably established before that. In Europe, the species had historically declined in Spain and Portugal, but in the latter part of the 20th century it expanded back through the Iberian Peninsula, and then began to colonise other parts of Europe; southern France in 1958, northern France in 1981 and Italy in 1985.
Breeding in the United Kingdom was recorded for the first time in 2008 only a year after an influx seen in the previous year. In 2008, cattle egrets were also reported as having moved into Ireland for the first time. This trend has continued and cattle egrets have become more numerous in southern Britain with influxes in some numbers during the non breeding seasons of 2007/08 and 2016/17. They bred in Britain again in 2017, following an influx in the previous winter, and may become established there.
In Australia, the colonisation began in the 1940s, with the species establishing itself in the north and east of the continent. It began to regularly visit New Zealand in the 1960s. Since 1948 the cattle egret has been permanently resident in Israel. Prior to 1948 it was only a winter visitor.

Out there in the distant and lush NW corner of Mount Rainier National Park Ranger Falls dances to the tune of angels cascading off of boulders and downed trees with a roar and a wet wind to an audience of none. One of the four remaining fire lookouts, perched upon Tolmie Peak, with one of the most magnificent views of the volcano sits abandoned, and access to the popular lake and campground which is a major resupply for the Wonderland Trail, Mowich, is cut off leaving me utterly heartbroken.
On April 14th the once beautiful 494 foot arched bridge that soars 250 feet above the Carbon River and the only public access point to 1/4 of MRNP was closed indefinitely and now....permanently as the 103 year old O'Farrell/Fairfax Bridge that is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places has become just that, historic.
I've been ranting for years about the way we've been hemorrhaging money on new schools and new fire stations as far as the eye can see while I drive like a drunken sailor, no offense Phil, to avoid the potholes and say silent prayers every time I cross a bridge. As Tobey Keith once said, the fits gonna hit the shan around here and it's about time.
Palm trees are about the only things that do well when a particularly bad hurricane comes through, and this time, even many of those didn't make it when Matthew blew his 140 mph winds at them! These beauties at Ames Park managed to hold on, though, as they have done for a very long time.
This was the first hurricane I've seen that had the power to break 2 1/2 foot wide cedars off at the base of the trunk, and snap palms in half. Usually they just bend, and the storms actually do them a favor by cleaning the old fronds off. Not this time. Many of Florida's hardiest trees were downed by Hurricane Matthew.
She Lies is a monumental permanent sculpture built out of stainless steel and glass panels and floats amidst the fjord on the water. By turning around its own axis in correspondence to the tides, the sculpture offers changing views through the reflections on the mirrored and semitransparent surfaces. Bonvicini’s sculpture is a three dimensional interpretation of Caspar David Friedrich’s painting Das Eismeer, 1823-24. It is particularly referring to the central motive of the work: the massive piles of ice that function as a symbol for power and magnificence of the north.

She Lies (Elle Ment) est une sculpture monumentale permanente construite en acier inoxydable et en panneaux de verre qui flotte au milieu du fjord, sur l'eau. En tournant sur son axe en fonction des marées, la sculpture offre des vues changeantes à travers les reflets sur ses surfaces miroitantes et semi-transparentes. La sculpture de Bonvicini est une interprétation en trois dimensions du tableau Das Eismeer (La Mer de glace) de Caspar David Friedrich, peint entre 1823 et 1824. Elle fait particulièrement référence au motif central de l'œuvre : les énormes amoncellements de glace qui symbolisent la puissance et la magnificence du nord.

.........or the populous streets in which they have played, remain but a place of passage. They may spend their whole lives aliens among their kindred and remain aloof among the only scenes they have ever knows. Perhaps it is this sense of strangeness that sends men far and wide in the search for something permanent, to which they may attach themselves. Perhaps some deep-rooted atavism urges the wanderer back to lands which his ancestors left in the dim beginnings of history. Sometimes a man hits upon a place to which he mysteriously feels that he belongs. Here is the home he sought, and he will settle amid scenes that he has never seen before, among men he has never known, as though they were familiar to him from his birth. Here at last he finds rest.

Another image of my favorite mockingbird.
The northern mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) is the only mockingbird commonly found in North America. This bird is mainly a permanent resident, but northern birds may move south during harsh weather.
This species has rarely been observed in Europe. The northern mockingbird is known for its mimicking ability, as reflected by the meaning of its scientific name, "many-tongued mimic".
The northern mockingbird is an omnivore. It eats both insects and fruits. It is often found in open areas and forest edges but forages in grassy land.
The northern mockingbird breeds in southeastern Canada, the United States, northern Mexico, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands and the Greater Antilles.
The northern mockingbird is listed as of Least Concern according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
The northern mockingbird is known for its intelligence. A 2009 study showed that the bird was able to recognize individual humans, particularly noting those who had previously been intruders or threats. Birds recognize their breeding spots and return to areas in which they had greatest success in previous years. Urban birds are more likely to demonstrate this behavior. - Wikipedia
