The Antwerp Central Station, also known as Middenstatie (Middle station) or Spoorwegkathedraal (Railroad Cathedral), was first used in 1905. The structure is made up from a steel platform covering and a stone station building in an eclectic style. Recently, the station was completely renovated and in 2007 a tunnel underneath the station and a part of Antwerp was opened, reverting the station’s status as a terminus where are all trains have to turn back. In 2009, the American magazine Newsweek chose the Antwerp Central Station as the fourth most beautiful train station in the world.

Hooded Vulture (Necrosyrtes monachus) in profile close-up. The hooded vulture (Necrosyrtes monachus) is an Old World vulture. It is the only member of the genus Necrosyrtes and is native to sub-Saharan Africa. It typically scavenges on carcasses. Although this is a common species, numbers of these birds are decreasing rapidly. Threats include poisoning, hunting and loss of habitat, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated its conservation status as "critically endangered". It is a small species compared to most vultures.

African bush elephants (Loxodonta africana) drink from the Sand River. This is the end of the 'dry season' but some water remains for the local wildlife. Londolozi Game Reserve, Sabi Sands, South Africa. Conservation status: Endangered.
The largest/heaviest flying bird native to Africa, the Kori Bustard (Ardeotis kori) is a ground dwelling bird and an opportunistic omnivore. The males can get up to 42 lbs and stand nearly 5 feet tall; they may be twice as heavy as the females.
This is a male in breeding display striding about with his neck puffed out, his tail fanned and wings planed and pointed downward. If he was looking to court a lady, we saw none in the vicinity - perhaps he was just practicing his routine.

The historic taxonomic status of Harlan's hawk has been quite erratic, sometimes it has been classified as its own species, B. harlani to the opposite extreme that R. S. Palmer (1988) classified as it (perhaps improbably) as a mere western color morph. Most modern authorities recognize as a valid subspecies. Harlan's hawk is markedly different from all other red tails and can be identified nearly 100% of the time by an experienced hawk watcher. Throughout the morphs of this subspecies, the plumage is predominantly blackish, lacking any warmer or brownish tones (save the tail). Harlan's hawks usually have faint streaks on the sides of their head and about their chest with a little gray mottling or speckling on the scapulars. Apart from a variably white-streaked throat, their underparts are usually mostly black with variable white streaking and barring on the thighs or crissum. There are up to four main variations from the typical one above: extreme dark morph (where even the throat is black and no pale streaking is present), dark morph (with barring still present from the tarsus to the underside), rare pale morph (with few blackish blobs on the belly and generally a whiter head) and perhaps even rarer types where the base color is grayish. Unlike most red-tailed hawks, generally immatures are similar enough than adults that it can be difficult to distinguish them. On average, immatures have more extensive pale streaking above and mottling below, but much individual variation has been recorded. The typical tail of a Harlan's hawk is white with a thick black subterminal band but individuals may vary considerable and the tail may be reddish, dusky, whitish or gray and can be longitudinally streaked, mottled or barred.

Azusa asobi is one of the most well known ritual performances in Shinto tradition. As an annual Spring performance, Azuma asobi was presented at Aoi matsuri Festival this afternoon. The performers wear a formal costume of konoe bukan, which is an entitled status as a security force in an imperial court before Japan's advent of modernity. The photograph was taken just before the performance began.
It is May and that means a lot of festivals are held in Kyoto, Japan. I am attending them as many as I can!

LOS FOTOGRAFOS ENTIENDEN EL TITULO DE LA FOTO, PERO ALGUNOS FAMILIARES NO. POR ESO HEMOS SIDO LLAMADOS SIMPATICAMENTE POR NUESTRA HERMANA MAYOR COMO "LOS SIN DOLIENTES" JAJAJAJA
Ya lo dije una vez.... ERAMOS CUERDOS COMO LOS DEMAS HASTA EL DIA EN QUE TOMAMOS UNA CAMARA EN LAS MANOS.
AsÍ mi hermana Joalhi dió un brinco como gata barcina y apareció de sorpresa ante la nieve de Yosemite cuando se enteró que había nevado y el cimarrón mayor despertó debajo de una mata de Pimienta en la Cordillera Central ante el aviso de Enrique de que las lluvias, el frío y los vientos del invierno tumbarían las pimientas y yo perdería este momento anhelado de mis adoradas ciguas amarillas- Spindalis dominicensis colgando del ramillete!! Cuando ambos nos reportamos desde nuestros lugares al grupo familiar de los diez hermanos en Wapsap, algunos tragaron en seco, otros torcieron el hocico, otros aplaudieron como mi hermana COCO , otros oraron por nosotros como Ada, pero nuestra hermana mayor que ahora es como nuestra mamá solo atinó a decir....... LOS SIN DOLIENTES ANDAN EN SU MUNDO , YO ME REÍ Y RECORDE A MAMA, LA CUAL ESTOY SEGURO HUBIERA DICHO...... CADA QUIEN CORRE DETRAS DE SU PELOTA, PARA REFERIRSE A LOS JUGADORES DE FUTBOL EN LOS PARTIDOS TELEVISADOS.
Si nos quedamos entre panties y calzoncillos, Yosyta hubiese perdido su foto del gran capitán cubierto de nieve y yo mi serie de la cigua amarilla colgando de las masetas de pimienta, lo que confirma que la fotografía NO ES SUERTE, es estar ahí en el momento oportuno y en el preciso momento de frisar el tiempo en segundos , anteponiendo la resaca de año nuevo, abandonar a la familia y por supuesto quedar sometido a las críticas sociales e inocentadas de una hermana maravillosa como lo es SALVA!!!
En conclusión cada quien tiene su historia y el don de ser feliz!! ASI QUE ME VEO OBLIGADO A REPETIR EL HIMNO CIMARRONICO CON TRADUCCION AL ESPAÑOL

Wikipedia: The Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis) is a species of humpback dolphin inhabiting coastal waters of the eastern Indian and western Pacific Oceans. This species is often referred to as the Chinese white dolphin in mainland China, Macau, Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan as a common name. Some biologists regard the Indo-Pacific dolphin as a subspecies of the Indian Ocean humpback dolphin (S. plumbea) which ranges from East Africa to India. However, DNA testing studies have shown that the two are distinct species. A new species, the Australian humpback dolphin (S. sahulensis), was split off from S. chinensis and recognized as a distinct species in 2014. Nevertheless, there are still several unresolved issues in differentiation of the Indian Ocean-type and Indo-Pacific-type humpback dolphins.
An adult Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin is grey, white or pink and may appear as an albino dolphin to some. Populations along the coasts of China and Thailand have been observed with pink skin. The pink color originates not from a pigment, but from blood vessels which were overdeveloped for thermoregulation.

High Brown Fritillary - Argynnis adippe
This large, powerful butterfly is usually seen flying swiftly over the tops of bracken or low vegetation in woodland clearings. In flight, the males are almost impossible to separate from those of the Dark Green Fritillary, which often share the same habitats. However, both species frequently visit flowers such as thistles and Bramble where it is possible to see their distinctive underside wing markings. The Dark Green lacks the orange ringed 'pearls' on the underside of the hindwing.
The High Brown Fritillary was once widespread in England and Wales but since the 1950s has undergone a dramatic decline. It is now reduced to around 50 sites where conservationists are working to save it from extinction.

Common Dog-violet (Viola riviniana) is used in all habitats, but Hairy Violet (V. hirta) is also used in limestone areas. It may occasionally use Heath Dog-violet (V. canina) and Pale Dog-violet (V. lactea).
Female lion (Panthera leo). Linyanti's lion population is plentiful and has adapted to the wetland environment and takes advantage of the abundant prey in the area. Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, Botswana. Conservation Status: Vulnerable
Status
Resident, winter visitor from Iceland and passage migrant (birds on passage from Scandinavia/the Baltic breeding areas to west African wintering areas). Highest numbers occur during the early autumn, when there is overlap of the populations.
Identification
As the name suggests, its most distinctive feature is the leg colour - bright red. A common wader of wetlands throughout the country, though mainly coastal estuaries in winter. A generally mouse brown bird with dark streaking. Bill medium length and straight, reddish at the base. Legs relatively long. Can occur in quite large numbers at the larger estuaries.
Voice
An hyterical, piercing "tew…hoo, tew…hoo", always loud - often scaring other birds away. Persisitent "tew.. tew...tew.." at breeding grounds.
Diet
Detect prey visually and feed mostly during the day along the upper shore of estuaries and along muddy river channels. Feed singly or in small groups, and their prey consists mostly of Hydrobia sp., Corophium sp. and nereid worms
Breeding
Nests on the ground in grassy tussock, in wet, marshy areas and occasionally heather. Adults often keep guard standing on fence posts or high rocks. Breeds mainly in midlands (especially Shannon Callows) and northern half of the country, but not commonly anywhere in Ireland.
Not sure what the status is with the original 'Maritime One' given the deal and repaints in DBC.
