This Male Pileated Woodpecker was busy for over a month hollowing out it's nest cavity in our back yard. The pair had a successful nest and we were able to watch the whole nest cycle from nest excavating to observing the three littles as they were fed from the opening. It was a spring to remember! There is a pair setting up shop this spring in the same tree! (new hole)

Petralia Soprana is located in the heart of Sicily, in the province of Palermo.

 

It is the highest town in the Madonie mountains, it dominates a vast landscape that ranges from the snow-capped peaks of Etna, to the city of Enna and the mountains of Palermo and then the wide valleys and waterways of the countryside that surround it.

 

A center of considerable importance during the Greek and Carthaginian domination, Petralia was the first Sicilian city to be dominated by the Romans, called "Petra" it was one of the cities that supplied the largest quantities of grain to the Roman Empire.

 

Following the Arab conquest, its name was changed to “Batraliah” and it became a powerful defensive stronghold at the time of the Normans.

 

Even today the town still preserves its medieval urban structure intact, with narrow paved streets, churches and noble palaces, suggestive courtyards and linear stone houses that widen into suggestive little squares and splendid views.

 

In 2018 it was awarded the title of "Most beautiful village in Italy".

Petralia Soprana si trova nel cuore della Sicilia, in provincia di Palermo.

 

E' il più alto paese delle Madonie, domina un ampio paesaggio che spazia dalle cime innevate dell'Etna, alla città di Enna e ai monti del palermitano e poi le ampie vallate e i corsi d'acqua delle campagne che la circondano.

 

Centro di notevole importanza durante la dominazione greca e cartaginese, Petralia fu la prima città siciliana ad essere dominata dai Romani, denominata “Petra” era una delle città che forniva le maggiori quantità di grano all'Impero Romano.

 

In seguito alla conquista araba, il suo nome venne mutato in “Batraliah” e divenne una potente roccaforte difensiva all'epoca dei Normanni.

 

Ancora oggi il paese conserva integra la struttura urbanistica medievale, con strade strette dal manto lastricato, chiese e palazzi nobiliari, suggestivi cortili e lineari case in pietra che si allargano in suggestive piazzette e splendidi panorami.

 

Nel 2018 si e' aggiudicato il titolo di “Borgo piu' bello d'Italia”.

Part 3 of 3 of my Ancient Egypt series.

 

The title is known to be given during the Old Kingdom of Egypt, and was at that point very powerful and prestigious. The mummies of the priestesses testify that they were decorated with a religious tattoo, covering the stomach around the area of the uterus. After the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, the title was often irregularly awarded the women of the royal family, typically princesses.

 

The rise, fall & extinction of the priestesses of Hathor are seen in ancient Egyptian culture. The women who wanted to become socially powerful usually took refuge in religion & took the charge of priesthood.

 

Ancient Egyptian society took women's empowerment much more loosely than ancient Greece & ancient Rome. There women were given the right to their own property. However, after becoming a priestess, a woman is seen not only as an important figure in ancient Egyptian society, but also a living symbol of divinity.

 

The priestesses of Hathor were called hm ntr hthr & they were one of the most respected people in Egypt. But After the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, the title was often irregularly awarded only to the women of the royal family, typically princesses. This includes the daughter of Ramesses II. At one time their names were completely erased from history.

 

Egyptologysts have shown that in early days only women of aristocratic lineage could be appointed to the priesthood of Hathor. They were called Badak-Purohit or God's Consort (Hmt nTr). They performed dances and songs during the sacred rites. Because of their menstruation and ability to give child-birth, they were considered unholy, which is why they could not perform sacred duties like dressing up the sacred image of deity.

A difficult shot, taken in the Liechtensteinklamm, Austria. This popular tourist attraction was pretty crowded and because of the small paths it was not possible to use a tripod. I still managed to take this shot handheld, and I'm pretty happy with it..

 

I wish you all a great day!

This Bald Eagle fledgling left the nearby nest and managed to land on this branch a day earlier (heard from another birder). He/she was eager to get back to the nest but afraid to try. So it was constantly whining - eventually the momma bird brought a big fish (next photo). However the chick couldn't get hold of it, dropped the fish and went back to whining. Then came along the papa bird with a half-eaten fish - this time I believe the transfer was successful. I heard later that it managed to get back to the nest and was doing well. Though odds are stacked up against it surviving the first year, I hope this one grows up to be a powerful adult just like its parents. Cambridge, Ontario

A powerful migratory Falcon from Central Europe / Mongolia to the Western parts of India. This is a partial migrant - meaning some part of the population is migrant. They are irregular and extremely rare visitors to India and per our guide, the last sighting was 2 years ago. This is much bigger than a peregrine Falcon and bulkier too.

 

This is the second fastest bird in level flight and we saw it hunting in the scrubalnds and even fighting with another falcon (Laggar Falcon). The bird hunts smaller insects, birds and mostly the desert rodents known as Jird locally or Jerbill in English - these rodents are present in good numbers in the desert.

 

The IUCN status of this bird is sadly endangered and ebird lists the status as sensitive. The bird is quite popular in wild life trade especially in Middle East.

 

Many thanks in advance for your views, faves and feedback - very much appreciated.
