Perdonate questo mio apparire a singhiozzo, ma é davvero un periodo ormai molto lungo, colmo di tutto, unito a un momento di stanchezza generale e in particolare per Flickr che può arrivare ad assorbire molto, anche troppo del tempo che dobbiamo dedicare alla vita... vera ;)
Ma torno sempre ;)
Un carissimo saluto a chiunque passi di qui :)
A Great Blue Heron stands watch over the wetlands near Everett, Washington. These wetlands border the sloughs and rivers bound for the Puget Sound.
This was taken at Buttermere in the Lake District. These iconic trees are known as “The Sentinels”, presumably because they appear to be standing guard over the lake (PA220014)

a beautiful meerkat (suricata suricatta) in pose for a shot.
these little predators live in packs of 12/30 individuals and are used to hunt in group all the little animals they can catch.
they are specialized in digging to find scorpions,insects and what else.you can see the claws.
but meerkats have a lot of enemies,mainly birds of prey like eagles.
this is why some of them are always on alert ready to advise the companions in case of a danger

These trees are to be found on the edge of Buttermere in the U.K.'s Lake District. They are known as the "Sentinels" presumably because they appear to be guarding the lake.
Quando un gatto fissa immobile un punto, forse sta creando una poesia. O sta scoprendo un varco nell’universo. O sta aspettando la venuta di un angelo.
When a cat stares at a point, perhaps it is creating a poem. Or is discovering a gap in the universe. Or is waiting for an angel to come.

¡Árboles!
¿Habéis sido flechas
caídas del azul?
¿Qué terribles guerreros os lanzaron?
¿Han sido las estrellas?
Vuestras músicas vienen del alma de los pájaros,
de los ojos de Dios,
de la pasión perfecta.... Explore July 2023
Federico García Lorca
Der Wächter der Rieselfelder.
Diese Assoziation kam mir in den Sinn, als ich Freitag diesen wunderbaren Storch beobachtete.
Ich hatte rechtzeitig die Beobachtungshütte im Schilff bezogen; der Himmel war noch bedeckt.
Der Storch stand eine geschlagene Stunde regungslos im Wasser - an einer eher ungünstigen Position.
Ich dachte mir, möge er doch zwei Meter weiter schreiten und eine Position zwischen den Baumstümpfen einnehmen.
Als dann die Sonne unterging, riss für einen kurzen Augenblick die Wolkendecke auf und tauchte das Schliff und den Weiher in ein magisches, winterlich warmes Licht - der Storch tat einige Schritte und stand plötzlich in perfekter Position.
Ich musste nur noch den Auslöser betätigen.
MAGIC!
Driving along the 17-Mile Drive, between Monterey and Carmel I pulled over to stretch my legs and capture some photons when I saw this seagull and ground squirrel appearing to be standing guard over their domain.
Some more archive surfing in search of a landscape and I found this from a couple of months ago.
This one uses a new Flypaper Texture called Dangerous Liaisons
A lone tree stands watch at the entrance to Crescent City Harbor in northernmost California. I took this photo with my iPhone in June of 2018 and recently rediscovered it.
Most of my posts this month will be ‘discoveries’ of old photos like this one was, blasts from the past that I didn’t make public at the time I took them. Once the New Year starts, I may have to back away from Flickr for a while.
Perched between wind and whisper,
the bird bows to no hour.
It watches — still — as feet pass by,
stories rustling like leaves below.
Only tilts its head —as if to ask
"What burdens do you carry today"?

The peace of Raven's Roost on a beautiful sunset...The Sentinel keeping guard (the beautiful tree)
Raven's Roost, Blue Ridge Parkway, Va...December 2019
from the archives. A view from the Shenandoah skyway. Edited this way back when but never got around to posting it. Re-edited it and I think it turned out better than the original conversion.

(IMGP0917ip1ec2a5)
This towering, neighborhood tree stands on a vacant lot dwarfing the other trees around it. I often wonder what stories it could tell and how it came to dominate the horizon, defying storms and the sawblade. It has a covering of new leaves now, which gives me hope that my country and our democracy will endure through this time of "Trumpian" darkness.
