Macro Mondays: Run
Photographed in morning window light, with a container of detergent reflecting its colour onto the water.
Bart is in a favorite spot, the window in the kitchen. It gives him a good view of the bird feeder, and a high vantage point to monitor his surroundings. I'm tapping a knife on the lens hood to get his attention.
Looking up to the Mither Tap, 518m, from the Maiden Causeway.
Although it is'nt the highest point in the Bennachie range, its certainly the most prominant and can be seen from far and wide
Bennachie is a range of hills in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It has several tops, the highest of which, Oxen Craig, has a height of 528 m. Mither Tap, 518m though not particularly high compared to other peaks within Scotland, is very prominent, owing to its isolation and the relative flatness of the surrounding terrain, and dominates the skyline from several viewpoints.
Today I put up a new prop at our woodland feeders and after waiting a while,this Nuthatch came down and posed perfectly!
He didn't land on the Tap but i'm sure he will in time!
In search for shiny objects in my house I have found the tap, or faucet how you Americans name it, and when I saw myself through the lens, I thought..well let's take a selfie again. Have a wonderful day!
heute wäre unser Flug nach Portugal gewesen - Faro, Lissabon und der Besuch einer Airshow - leider wurde durch Corona alles abgesagt und die Reise wird auf nächstes Jahr verschoben

Northern Flicker
Another day when I escaped the confines of my condo for a bit of a drive and a bit of a walk. Naturally, I had my camera with me. :-)
This out is created by S&P and is available at Uber. IT comes with the Top Hat and Cane, the Leotard, the tights The Tailcoat and the tap shoes! Love it so much.
This is a picture of a fallen leaf from my garden after it rained. I like the way the droplet seems to connected to the vein. Which way is the water going?
What does it say to you?
Thanks for looking.

The decisive moment. I looked up to the towering coconut palms swaying overhead during an afternoon stroll near Balapitiya, a small fishing village on the southern coast of Sri Lanka's Low Country. To my delight, I saw a Sinhalese toddy tapper walking quickly for balance on tight coir ropes that ran from treetop to treetop at 30 to 40 feet above ground - all part of an elaborate process for harvesting the sweet milky sap of cut coconut blossoms. A serendipitous moment in the renowned land of Serendip.
The sap is ultimately fermented into “toddy” or palm wine and distilled into arrack - a stronger, more refined, and highly popular alcoholic beverage in Sri Lanka. The ropes are made of strong coir or coconut fiber. Portable equipment carried on these aerial circuits includes two types of knives in a wooden case to slice the spadix, a small wooden mallet or piece of bone to tap the sides of the spathe, a coconut shell containing green leaf paste to control the oozing sap, and a clay pot or gourd to collect the sap.
Toddy tapping is done by men from several castes in the region. An individual tapper can harvest a hundred trees or more in a day as individual treetop circuits are routinely completed. As far as I can tell, this dangerous high-ropewalk harvesting method is solely unique to Sri Lanka. It faces extinction today.
