Never ceases to amaze me how hummingbirds can keep their bodies absolutely still (look at those tiny feet!) even when their wings are beating something like 15 times per second. Really is a miracle of nature...
Little Egret - Egretta garzetta
The little egret (Egretta garzetta) is a species of small heron in the family Ardeidae. The genus name comes from the Provençal French Aigrette, egret a diminutive of Aigron, heron. The species epithet garzetta is from the Italian name for this bird, garzetta or sgarzetta.
It is a white bird with a slender black beak, long black legs and, in the western race, yellow feet. As an aquatic bird, it feeds in shallow water and on land, consuming a variety of small creatures. It breeds colonially, often with other species of water birds, making a platform nest of sticks in a tree, bush or reed bed. A clutch of bluish-green eggs is laid and incubated by both parents. The young fledge at about six weeks of age.
Its breeding distribution is in wetlands in warm temperate to tropical parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. A successful colonist, its range has gradually expanded north, with stable and self-sustaining populations now present in the United Kingdom.
It first appeared in the UK in significant numbers in 1989 and first bred in Dorset in 1996
In warmer locations, most birds are permanent residents; northern populations, including many European birds, migrate to Africa and southern Asia to over-winter there. The birds may also wander north in late summer after the breeding season, and their tendency to disperse may have assisted in the recent expansion of the bird's range. At one time common in Western Europe, it was hunted extensively in the 19th century to provide plumes for the decoration of hats and became locally extinct in northwestern Europe and scarce in the south. Around 1950, conservation laws were introduced in southern Europe to protect the species and their numbers began to increase. By the beginning of the 21st century the bird was breeding again in France, the Netherlands, Ireland and Britain. It has also begun to colonise the New World; it was first seen in Barbados in 1954 and first bred there in 1994. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the bird's global conservation status as being of least concern..
My favorite matter for photoshooting in Kavala, as you will have noticed if you have checked my stream. Stable like a rock!

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO
WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT.
Always lovely to see horses out in the wilds - this was taken in the Antrim area of Northern Ireland

A last one from our day out at Knightshayes Court. This was on our way back from the house towards the entrance with the stables in the background. The rest of the gang can be seen on the left walking into my frame :-P
Need some stability or do you need a stable? If it's the latter, you're in luck...DaD virtual living has a new release. The "Berkshire Stable". This stable actually has lots of possibilities. The texturing is beautiful and it's very functional. Stable doors open on both the top and bottom in case your horses need to run free. You can find this stable at the faMESHed 8th Anniversary Event! Also make sure to wear your faMESHed group tag to grab your free gifts! Pictured:

Thanks for your continued support and hope you all have a fantastic rest of the week! 😊
Een stalraam van de in zeer slechte staat verkerende boerderij in de buurt van Lochem en Vorden. Volgens mij nog wel in gebruik maar niet als woonhuis. Nog even en het klimop zal het stalraam overwoekeren. Druk op de 'L' toets voor de vergroting.
A stable window of the farm in very bad condition near Lochem and Vorden. I think it is still in use, but not as a residence. Just a little while and the ivy will overgrow the stable window. Press the 'L' key for the magnification.
The old stable block at Ightham Mote viewed from the tower on the manor house. It was converted into holiday let cottages which are currently being renovated. There is a small display of old photographs in the main entrance.
In the grounds of Cirencester Park in the Cotswolds Gloucestershire UK.
The stables constructed from Cotswold Stone with a slate roof.
The light at sunset was golden and penetrating. A skiff of clouds hugged the shoreline of Vancouver Island miles away. And it all looked like the photos my eye doctor shows me, when we view the back of my eyes.
They are hanging on, or to use my doctors terminology, they are stable. It is amazing to me, how one completely different thing can resemble another. And yes, even the colours are similar.
Newfoundland
Root cellars are found throughout Newfoundland and are used to keep vegetables and fruits at a stable temperature and humidity to avoid spoiling.
Sadly the only buildings left standing in the Cammo Estate West of Edinburgh. It seems nature will win the battle
