This photo is a record photo of a Rock Wren; at least that is what it should be based on it's song and what others have suggested to me what it should be. It was just too far for my lens to reach to achieve a decent photo. So we get a tiny blob on a nice sunny day sitting on a pile of rocks.
My bibigurl (her name will be Bijoux) *u* Slowly but surely she's coming along. Only the first two rows and her partline are done, but I'm excited about her.
Also, I recall reading about how a bunch of kids were arguing with each other over how to say her name and wanted to mention that rock (as a substance) is spelled as roche in French and commonly pronounced with a J sound. I think, because of that, I'm more inclined to think her name shouldn't be pronounced as Rock-elle xD Can't wait for her to appear in the webisodes~
Barbary Macaque (Macaca sylvanus) Gibraltar_w_9679
The Barbary macaque (Macaca sylvanus), also known as Barbary ape or magot, is a macaque species native to the Atlas Mountains of Algeria and Morocco along with a small population of uncertain origin in Gibraltar. It is one of the best-known Old World monkey species.
Skull and brain, as illustrated in Gervais' Histoire naturelle des mammifères
The Barbary macaque is of particular interest because males play an atypical role in rearing young. Because of uncertain paternity, males are integral to raising all infants. Generally, Barbary macaques of all ages and sexes contribute in alloparental care of young.
The diet of Barbary macaque consists primarily of plants and insects and they are found in a variety of habitats. Males live to around 25 years old while females may live up to 30 years. Besides humans, they are the only free-living primates in Europe. Although the species is commonly referred to as the "Barbary ape", the Barbary macaque is actually a true monkey. Its name refers to the Barbary Coast of Northwest Africa.
The Barbary macaque population of Gibraltar is the only such population outside Northern Africa and the only population of wild monkeys in Europe.
About 230 macaques live on the Rock of Gibraltar. This population appears to be stable or increasing, while the North African population is declining.
Bratz Girlz Really Rock! RC 1962 Corvette with Meygan - Toys R Us Exclusive
Definitely one of my FAVORITE Bratz cars, if not my favorite! It's so detailed and realistic, as the majority of Bratz vehicles are. Before this incarnation, the mold also appeared on one of the Bratz Movie Starz cars, marking the first time MGA ever released an officially-licensed vehicle for the Bratz ^_^ I'd love to see it recycled as much as some of the other cars have been. I remember GM was like shutting down or something when it came out :o
I bought the set at Toys R Us the day after Christmas in 2008 with Jason (Then we went back that night and I got the jet with Dana LOL). This car, along with the two ghetto World Convertible Cruisers, was the last Bratz vehicle until 2010 I believe. I remember all throughout 2009, my TRU had tons of the set stacked up, then one day they all disappeared without a trace :P I'm waiting to see if they'll eventually resurface the way Spring Break Yas did last weekend lol. Anyways, this set is surprisingly rare, with most Bratz fans apparently not believing it actually exists, so I thought I'd upload a shot of the car :) You can catch the included Meygan doll in the 9th cycle of BNDM too ;p
Alla fine di una lunga giornata di lavoro il Rock 51, ultimo arrivato alla DPR Lazio, riposa nella sua nuova casa di Roma Smistamento.
As we were traveling southward on US-191, I suggested we drive to Looking Glass Rock, even though it wasn't on "The Plan" (it was a moment of weakness). Judging by the name and descriptions I had read, I thought it would be interesting. Jim drove down the dirt road until we could see a large rock formation in the distance. As we approached it, we couldn’t help but wonder why this rock would attract attention (see comment below). Disappointed, we were ready to turn around but Jim decided to go a bit farther to get a look at the other side. We were glad he did because there, only visible from behind, was a hole completely through the rock. With the evening sun on the back side and dark clouds in the opposite direction, the rock appeared a brilliant orange.
This one really shows up in light box.

It was early morning after breakfast and before the very first concert of the day at 10:00 AM on the main pool-deck stage behind us. (Laura and I are at the bottom left corner).

"And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make"
A sturdy rock that has endured many years of heavy water flow in the Ashtabula River. Oh… and some autumn leaves.
It was a wet, rainy day down in the Ashtabula River Gulf in beautiful Ashtabula County Ohio. October 19, 2020
Granite was quarried from this hole in the early 20th century to provide building material for the growing St Louis situated about 70 miles to the northeast. It's now part of the Elephant Rock State Park in Missouri
"I've got a load of rock ova here. Whaddya want me to do wit' it? I ain't got all day!" Who knew CS figs spoke in a clichéd Brooklyn accent?
Morro Rock is a volcanic plug in Morro Bay, California. This was shot from a distance with the 55-210 mm zoom lens' biggest end. The weather was rainy and windy on the entire coast.

Trees and brush and red rock stretching toward the horizon
This was a day of travel and establishing a new "home base" with a different group of friends. It began at a national park campground, involved a bit of driving on paved and unpaved roads, and ended at a rustic "camp site" close to 50 miles out on a gravel track. We arrived and spent a bit of time settling in, getting our camp for the next few days organized, and later each of us spent a bit of time wandering the nearby hills and "tuning up" our vision for the coming photographic work.
That evening we wanted to photograph something, but at this late hour and following a somewhat busy day our goal had to be a bit modest. So we loaded ourselves into vehicles and drove back up the road a bit to a spot with impressive red rock hills and walked up onto the sandstone slabs. There was much to see and photograph, and the light varied between overcast and that nearly perfect light that shines through thin clouds late in the day. As we climbed higher into these hills I stopped at this spot to take in the long view across curved sandstone terrain toward the farther reaches of the valley, as early evening sun slanted across rocks and vegetation.
