" What are they talking about
On the weekends
Lost in the forest of this heart
Is a foreign still
Why are they shaking their heads
We’re stuck in slow life.. "

Last weekend, one of the enchanting moments this winter was: minus 20 degrees outside temperature, a fog bench and slowly the sun turns on and after and after the fog bench. Fantastically cold, but crazy light.

Erdkröte (bufo bufo)
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erdkr%C3%B6te#:~:text=Die%20Erdkr%C...(Bufo%20bufo)%20ist,Familie%20der%20Kr%C3%B6ten%20(Bufonidae).
Die Erdkröte (Bufo bufo) ist ein häufiger und im paläarktischen Raum weit verbreiteter Froschlurch aus der Gattung der Echten Kröten innerhalb der Familie der Kröten (Bufonidae). Nach heutiger Auffassung handelt es sich wahrscheinlich nicht um eine einheitliche biologische Art, sondern um einen Komplex mehrerer Taxa, deren genaue systematische Stellung und Abgrenzung derzeit unklar ist.[1]
Die Erdkröte wurde von der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Herpetologie und Terrarienkunde zum Lurch des Jahres 2012 gekürt.
Common toad (bufo bufo), European toad, toad
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_toad
The common toad, European toad, or in Anglophone parts of Europe, simply the toad (Bufo bufo, from Latin bufo "toad"), is a frog found throughout most of Europe (with the exception of Ireland, Iceland, and some Mediterranean islands), in the western part of North Asia, and in a small portion of Northwest Africa. It is one of a group of closely related animals that are descended from a common ancestral line of toads and which form a species complex. The toad is an inconspicuous animal as it usually lies hidden during the day. It becomes active at dusk and spends the night hunting for the invertebrates on which it feeds. It moves with a slow, ungainly walk or short jumps, and has greyish-brown skin covered with wart-like lumps.
Later than last year the trees are showing their first green, sunny but chilly is the theme of April. Hiking is fun, but a warm jacket is still required. Dehme, Ostwestfalen, Germany
This shot was taken from a ferry leaving Buenos Aires towards Colonia. They are located within the port, just a few hundred meters from the Museum of the Immigrant and not far from Puerto Madero, the newest part of Buenos Aires that is being developed on top of recovered old port buildings and terrain gained to the Rio de la Plata.
El Molina de El Roque, also known as El Molina de El Tostón, this is an old, traditional windmill near El Cotillo on Fuerteventura.
A slow night ,the weather clearing after a thunderstorm, and a beautiful beach with no one on it!! Great clouds and an incoming tide, perfect!! A slow parade is a favourite song by A A Bondy, and sort of sums up my working my way from pool to pool, just having great fun!!! A wonderful evening!!
Pahto (Mount Adams), seen from Mount Rainier National Park, Washington
Last weekend I decided to meet up with a friend for a sunset hike at Mount Rainier National Park. We made detailed plans ahead of time for both the hike and sunset watching, and then ended up both arriving later than planned, doing a different hike, and hiking more slowly than anticipated due to snow (yes, more snow!) on the trail and a stop to search for my friend's dropped phone. But sunset wasn't until 8:51pm so we figured we still had plenty of time.
We were hiking with the sun behind us, and time was flying by as it has a way of doing when we hike together, so when we emerged from a forested section of the trail into a meadow, we suddenly noticed that the sun was starting to drop into the trees, and realized we had to turn around and hustle back down the trail to where we had planned to watch the sunset over Tahoma (Mount Rainier).
As we hiked at a quick pace back, through every break in the trees, my eyes were drawn to this view of Pahto and the south Cascades. In the evening light, with that fog rising from the forest below, I finally decided it was necessary to stop for photos, despite our time constraints.
Note: Pahto is the second highest peak in Washington, standing 12,281 feet/3743 meters tall and is considered one of the 5 active volcanoes in the state, although the last eruption was 1000 years ago. It is one of the five sacred mountains to the native Yakama peoples and part of the mountain is territory of the Yakama Nation.

Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight (tonight)
Too bad, but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right (you're right)
You got your passion, you got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true (Oooh)
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?
An old comedy routine performed by Abbot and Costello as well as the Three Stooges always comes to mind when I watch a Green heron slowly turn on a branch.
The very tip of a lovely new long frond on our tree-fern slowly uncurling.
Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday!
I love these foggy mornings when the sun is struggling to penetrate the mist and the beauty of the day unfolds so very, very slowly.
Slow down
Girl, let me love you
Darling, I care
I care for you
More than my own self
Darling, I'll share
I'll share with you
All goodness and wealth
Seh we can have just one night
Or we can one whole life
If we play it cool, yeah
We can have that one thing
Or we can have everything
If our hearts are true
Girl, slow down
Girl, let me love you
Darling, slow down
Let me get to know you
Baby, I've been fantasizing
Just looking in your eyes
You know I'm looking for more
And you're what I've been praying for
This kind of love don't come around like this
I'm not one to play around like this, it's so real
And I love how it feels
