Happy May Day! ♥ I took some photos of our Neemos making donuts and having a little donut party~ I've been wanting to take some photos with my kitchen Re-ments too, so this was a perfect chance to do that.

Restlessness of a struggling heart with hidden painful desire within existence of life cannot feel your touch crashing the soul...

Forsythia has an explosive beauty right about now, at its peak and almost over. Beautiful bonfires of yellow leading green, somewhat anticlimactic with the monochrome of summer coming. That's my least favorite season, settled in on changeless months, when I know that change is where joy lies. For now, the flux of elements makes me happy, bringing wildness to what's unchanged for decades. This very sleepy looking homestead has the benefit of a metal roof, keeping out the rain and letting it outlive a lot of its neighbors. The years have not done much, at least on the outside, restless lashings of weary beauty and bare wood weathering. Eye on the sky and rain on my skin, what's wonderful is how heavy memories settle in. There might be no one living who made them, but they're lingering and low. Tied to the earth they're on.

This flower I photographed some time ago...many filters used and I thought the quote complimented the art.

The pack (shown 6 of 10) was getting restless near zoo closing time, since they know it's time for dinner.

shots from a short trip through kathmandu, nepal

Ted spends a restless night tossing and turning. He can't help feeling that the other Troopers don't like him too much. “They're just jealous of my armor” he thinks.

 

"...Jackie?..."

 

".........."

 

"It's pretty late, little buddy. Why don't you go to sleep?"

 

"No."

 

"Please, Jackie. You look so tired....."

 

"I said no."

 

I hate it. I can't even think about being mean to Steph like that. but I cant have anything stopping me right now. Ever since Tim disappeared, I always kept doing my daily training, even without him. It seemed so empty, so pointless. But Tim would've wanted me to keep doing it. After all, if my powers prove no good in a situation, I need something so I'm not helpless. Then the other night, I learned everything I needed. I learned who the jerk was who caused all this. That...that monster, calling himself the Crow. He hurt me in the nest, kidnapped Steph, and tried to kill them both. Then he has the nerve to shoot me in the leg! The scar still hasn't gone away. And now to do this!? To cause us so much pain!? He's the problem! The reason all the heroes are on a mad goose chase, the reason I'm having these nightmares, everything! Well, now that I know who's done this, I'm not stopping. All I've done these past couple of days is train. Train train train! I know what this Crow idiot thinks about me. He probably thinks I'm just a stupid kid who can't use his powers. Well, boy oh boy, is he gonna be wrong. I won't even need my powers once i get my hands on him. And when i do my hands I him, I swear I will break him in two like the little twig he is. I've had it with people causing me so much pain, and Crow pushed the last button. He'll pay for this. I swear it....

Available Light

I finally had the chance to shoot with Paige at one of our small group shoots. Fun young lady - good attitude, the cameras loved her, with a girl next door natural beauty. It was a bit windy at the shoot so we had some wild hair going but it was worth it. I hope there are future shoots in store with Paige - she was a blast to work with. Again, thanks to Ron for letting us use his Harley. I took these photos in May 2020.

Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing

A flowery band to bind us to the earth,

Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth

Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,

Of all the unhealthy and o’er-darkened ways

Made for our searching: yes, in spite of all,

Some shape of beauty moves away the pall

From our dark spirits. Such the sun, the moon,

Trees old and young, sprouting a shady boon

L'idea di partenza era quella di rivisitare questa foto.... www.flickr.com/photos/moon_y/2621480708/ scattata da me tantissimo tempo fa...

 

...e alla fine...questo è il risultato...

 

Unconfirmed Polydesmus angustus

  

Polydesmidae species are all fairly similar in appearance, and like a lot of invertebrates, it takes looking at the reproductive organs to actually be able to reliably identify the species.

 

Polydesmus angustus are seen to display an off white set of legs, so I am hoping that my identification is correct.

 

Spring cleaning in the garden, allowed us to uncover some real treasures.

Somebody take the pain away

It's like an ulcer bleeding in my brain

So send me to the pharmacy so I can lose my memory

Although I don't smoke in RL any more, I can have a cigarette in SL any time. It was a strange day today, with my mind clouded in smoke a little like this picture.

 

Song

ver the past 3 years I have been meaning to visit this unique location in spring for its annual bloom of bluebells.

 

High winds and dotted skies made the entire shoot a gambling game, on the way to another spot I saw the clouds break momentarily and got one shot before the light disappeared. Goes to show having your equipment ready to go at all times pays off.

Restless Flycatcher

Scientific Name: Myiagra inquieta

Description: The Restless Flycatcher has a glossy blue-black head, with a small crest, and is white below, from the chin to the undertail, with a blue-black bill surrounded by bristles. The back, wings and tail are darker grey and there may be a slight orange brown tint on the breast. Young birds are duller grey black above, with the throat and breast washed orange-brown. The slightly smaller northern Australian sub-species,nana, known as the Paperbark Flycatcher, has a smaller bill and has the glossy blue-black colouring extending further down the back. The Restless Flycatcher is an extremely mobile and active bird and is able to hover while feeding, uttering a grinding call that gives it yet another common name: Scissors Grinder.

Similar species: The Restless Flycatcher is often found in the same habitats as the similarly sized and patterned Willie Wagtail. However, this species has a white eyebrow, and its black colouring extends down the throat and onto the upper breast; it also has a more rounded, fanned tail which it characteristically 'wags' and it lacks the Restless Flycatcher's head crest.

Distribution: The Restless Flycatcher is found throughout northern and eastern mainland Australia, as well as in south-western Australia. It is also found in Papua New Guinea. The southern subspecies, inquieta, is found in south-western Australia and from eastern South Australia to Julia Creek and Mount Isa, Queensland. The northern subspecies,nana, is found from the Kimberley region, Western Australia, to Cooktown and Townsville, Queensland. The two subspecies do not seem to mix where their ranges meet in central eastern Queensland.

Habitat: The Restless Flycatcher is found in open forests and woodlands and is frequently seen in farmland.

Seasonal movements: South-eastern populations move north during winter.

Feeding: The Restless Flycatcher feeds on insects, as well as other invertebrates such as spiders and centipedes and usually feeds alone or in pairs. It is able to hover, hanging almost vertically in the air with its head and spread tail pointing downwards as it picks insects off the leaves. It rarely comes to the ground, preferring to 'hawk' for insects from perches in the mid-level of the canopy.

Breeding: The Restless Flycatcher builds a small cup-shaped nest of bark and grass bound with spider web, camoflaged with pieces of lichen and bark, and placed in a exposed position on a tree branch, often near or over water. Males and females both help to build the nest, incubate the eggs and feed the young. Up to three broods may be raised in one season and the young disperse quickly after fledging.

Calls: Continuous whirring or rasping hisses when hovering.

Minimum Size: 16cm

Maximum Size: 21cm

Average size: 19cm

Average weight: 20g

Breeding season: July to January in south; August to March in north

Clutch Size: 3 to 4

Incubation: 14 days

Nestling Period: 14 days

Nightshade, DC Sexta Mod

Nothing to do but scuff down

the graveyard road behind the playground,

past the name-stones lined up in rows

beneath their guardian pines,

on out into the long, low waves of plains

that dissolved time. We'd angle off

from fence and telephone line, through

ribbon-grass that closed behind as though

we'd never been, and drift toward the bluff

above the river-bend where the junked pickup

moored with its load of locust-skeletons.

Stretched across the blistered hood, we let

our dresses catch the wind while clouds above

dimmed their pink to purple, then shadow-blue—

So slow, we listened to our own bones grow.
