organ player (and his wife?) rehearsing at St. Stephen's Church, Mainz
Ein Orgelspieler (und seine Frau / Begleitung) probt auf der Klais Orgel in St. Stephan, Mainz. Ich gehe davon aus, dass es sich um Christoph Keggenhoff (Speyer) handelt, der am Donnerstag (06. August 2015) um 19:30h ein Konzert auf dieser Orgel spielt. Der Eintritt dazu ist frei:

Squat, cryptically-plumaged shorebird with a very long bill. Inhabits a wide range of wetland habitats, from damp meadows to saltmarshes. Mostly inconspicuous, feeding in muddy ground by probing with its bill, usually near reeds or other grassy cover. Often not seen until flushed, when it usually rises from fairly close range with a rough rasping call. Breeding birds are more conspicuous, perching on fence posts. In display flight, birds stoop from high overhead and produce a pulsating, bleating sound from air passing through their fanned tail.

La NASA a publié les images les plus proches jamais vues du soleil, capturées par la sonde solaire Parker à seulement 6,1 millions de kilomètres de la surface solaire.
°°°°°°°°
NASA has released the closest-ever images of the sun, captured by the Parker Solar Probe only 3.8 million miles away from the solar surface.
Throughout the galaxy the probes appeared. Their purpose and origins are unknown.
On Fortal 3, a team of remote rangers suddenly found themselves very curious indeed.

Or what a probe on a shoestring budget (broken lander leg) might see upon landing at the Michigan City Lighthouse. The near object is a massive block of ice which has formed over a small concrete pillar. The frozen, Southern tip of Lake Michigan is between the frozen pillar and the sky beyond.
Whether the probe landed here, or at the U.S. Capitol Building, the conclusion might be the same: no life here (no offense to those living camera left...the probe was just pointed the wrong way here).
In lovely condition despite having covered 132,000 miles. Very rare now.
Are these a badge engineered Mazda?
Just below the summit of Legges Tor, which rises above the central plateau of Ben Lomond, we come across some interesting equipment. The ski lift is obvious enough, but my title reflects a little confusion as to the origins of the solar panel on the right.
My first thought was a weather station, but that seems unlikely since we lack the means of measuring rainfall and wind speed (there's no anemometer). Is it an alien probe? My guess is that it in fact measures seismic activity and relays this information electronically.
Interestingly enough, this is the only place on the entire mountain that has mobile phone reception. So one would think that our phones can tap into whatever signal is being emitted from this "probe". Any suggestions warmly welcomed.

A kōlea probes the damp soil for earthworms. A Pacific golden plover patrols the Oahu shoreline and reestablishes his territory after a five-month summer breeding season in arctic Alaska. With his seasonal mating plumage fading this shorebird looks for food to replenish his body fat. The return trip traversed approximately 3,000 miles of open ocean requiring an exhaustive 3 to 4 days and nights of nonstop flight. Incredibly, some kōlea will continue their marathon semiannual migration to oceanic islands of the southern Pacific resulting in an annual round trip total of about 15,000 miles. Their fledglings set off from the tundra searching for an island and a suitable territory a month or two after the adults have departed. Many fledgling birds probably miss landfall and perish at sea. Survivors are superb navigators with territorial fidelity, using the stars and the earth’s magnetic field to find their way over the featureless ocean to the same small patch of land every year. Like most transoceanic migratory birds, they may use the earth’s magnetic field visually with the magnetoreception molecules of cryptochrome in their retina.
Small, warbler-like tanager of tropical lowlands. Favors forest edge, woodland, and semi-open areas with taller trees. Often occurs in small groups, sometimes larger flocks, usually in the canopy of flowering trees, where it probes for nectar with its long bill. Red legs are bright on male, dullest on young birds. Male is blue in breeding plumage, with a turquoise cap; female and non-breeding male are greenish overall with faint streaking on the chest. In flight, the underside of the wings flash bright sulphur-yellow.

Black crowned Night Heron
"A heron can use a Probing
technique by quickly and repeatedly moving its bill into and out of the water or
substrate, in a method more typical of ibises. Probing is a non-visual, tactile foraging
technique. A more common behavior is Pecking. The heron merely picks up an item
from the substrate, often repeating the movement. The substrate may be the ground, a
plant, or surface of the water. A specialized method is Scooping used by the Boat Billed
Heron. By Scooping, the individual walks forward with its bill partially submerged,
thrusting forward and Scooping with each step.
Prey are caught in the bill either by Impale Capture or Grasp Capture. Impaling
means the bill tip goes into or through the prey. This occurs mostly on large and wide
prey, and mostly by herons with bills large enough to withstand the stress of impaling
and landing a larger prey item. Grasping is the more common capture method in which
prey are caught in a tweezers grip."

Inside a massive, closed warehouse. One could spend days wandering this cavernous space. After closing, this building was intentionally left to rot with the plans of demolition. Workers are slowly removing valuable equipment but there is a long journey ahead with the environmental cleanup of the entire property.
The black-necked stilt forages by probing and gleaning primarily in mudflats and lakeshores, but also in very shallow waters near shores; it seeks out a range of aquatic invertebrates – mainly crustaceans and other arthropods, and mollusks – and small fish, tadpoles and very rarely plant seeds. Its mainstay food varies according to availability; inland birds usually feed mainly on aquatic insects and their larvae
Very tidy example seen on the way home from a Saturday morning show and autojumble, making for a pleasing '90s scene with my Lexus.
