I usually don't see bell miners on the ground.
As Wikipedia says, "they are heard more than they are seen, as bell miners tend to forage high in the canopy, and their olive-green plumage blends into the surrounding leaves."
This one had a nice bath in a stream and perched on a rock long enough for me to get a few shots.

The sweet peas are still blooming which has been so nice having cut flowers in the house most of the summer.
May the sun bring you new energies by day, may the moon softly restore you by night, may the rain wash away any worries you may have, may gentle breezes refresh your soul, and all the days of your life may you walk gently through the world ....... and know its beauty ~ Unknown.
Flickring again! I can't believe it's been over a few months of absence from photography already. It's starting to feel good to be back. Things have been abit on the busy side but I'm glad that's over and that life is slowly returning. The summer heat and humidity didn't help either but now that it's officially Autumn with the rain cooling things down, I should be out and about more with camera in hand.
I've always wanted to sit, relax, and think on these benches on a (really) rainy day and I finally got to do it.

Remember to thank the workers in public gardens if you see them. We enjoy their labours, thank them!
„let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.”
Hebrews 10:22
Water, one of the fundamentals of life and vital for all life forms. Those molecules consisting of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms are one of the most valuable resources in Earth. Even though we have remarkable resources of water, we should not take it for granted. It's very limited in certain regions.
Let's not see rainy days as dark and sad, but refreshing. Rainy days are something we should learn to appreciate more.
Thank you!

Currently, it is quite warm here in Austria. My dog can not stand this weather, but after a shower with a garden hose she is much more active and feels really good again. Have a good Friday!!
Got caught out in an absolutely downpour while we walked the other day. We hadn't expected the rain to come down as hard as it did and were without our umbrellas.
All three of us were soaked by the time the rain finally took a break.
I snapped a quick shot of the saturated trail before we left the wooded area and mosquitoes behind to head home.
At least everything always looks so vibrant after a good rain.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

I had a request to put Scripture on some of my favorite images, so I will be adding some of my favorite verses. No comments are needed but if you want to, by all means, please do! Thanks for enjoying them!

▶ They say to spray water droplets on flowers when shooting close-ups. I prefer to wait for nature to provide the raindrops. Waiting for a breeze to subside: that's another thing.
▶ April showers bring April flowers: here.
