Mourning Doves (Zenaida macroura). This pair of love birds have been hanging around my property for the past four years. They use the Spanish moss hanging in my oak tree to build their nests.
They try nesting in some unusual places around my yard. Hanging planters are their favorites. Every spring they go through this ritual of affection for each other and then its off to forage for twigs and moss. Wonder where their nest will be this time?
An estimated 20.000 Sand Hill Cranes spend the winter here in Whitewater Draw Wildlife Area near McNeal, Arizona.
...That’s why I’d Love to Hang my Hat in Tennessee.
A bit of a twist of the lyrics from George Strait’s 1987 Country Hit Recording : )
Last October, the Mrs. and I enjoyed a week in the Beautiful State of Tennessee. In addition to visiting the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (a Bucket List item) we had a delightful day at the gorgeous Cumberland Mountain State Park located in Crossville Tennessee.
The Byrd Creek Bridge is the centerpiece of the Cumberland Mountain State Park. The seven span bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the Cumberland Homesteads Historic District. The Byrd Creek Dam is the largest masonry structure ever built by the Civilian Conservation Corps.
Men of the Civilian Conservation Corps built this unsuspended bridge between 1935 and 1940, for a 30-acre impoundment of Byrd's Creek. Three thousand five hundred and fifty cubic yards of dirt and rock were excavated and the core, containing 8,000 tons of concrete, is faced with Crab Orchard stone for the 319-foot span. Seven spillways, rising 28 feet above the stream bed, carry the 18-foot wide roadway approximately, which is 16 feet above water level.
Cumberland Mountain State Park began as part of the greater Cumberland Homesteads Project, a New Deal-era initiative by the Resettlement Administration that helped relocate poverty-stricken families on the Cumberland Plateau to small farms centered on what is now the Cumberland Homestead community. The 1,720-acre park was acquired in 1938 to provide a recreational area for some 250 families selected to homestead on the Cumberland Plateau.

🎼: Thats Life ~ Frank Sinatra~
✈️ : Missing Melody
That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die
I've got this Christmas song in my heart
I've got the candles glowing in the dark
And then for years to come we'll always know one thing
That's the love that Christmas can bring
Oh, why? 'Cause that's Christmas to me

Great blue Heron getting ready to swallow a nice big fish, which it did manage to get down. Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge, Smyrna, DE.
Taken on July 4th when some of my American friends wanted to drink and I only wanted to take a look.
This beautiful beach is at Nelson Bay. A tiny shack settlement with a permanent registered population of four. That's right, four. If you want off-grid living, this is the place to be. And far enough from the rest of the world to be able to not give a care either. In this part of the world, the Tasmanian east coast is a foreign country.

Spider
Grasshopper
I went for a wander today. As I neared the Sneydes Rd. Paddock I spotted this Spider wrapping a Grasshopper for later comsumption.

After much dancing around and tugging the Dragonfly was eventually dissected to be shared.
On the far horizon, the setting sun.
Last beams of golden light search their way through the open window. A murmuring brook flows to the song of the birds outside. Wind gently brushes the cherry trees and carries the scent of flowers inside the quiet room. With a deep sigh he lifts his gaze from his graphic tablet, eying his work in a critical manner. Maybe it was time for a break? He turns towards u10. They've been quietly working side by side. It was a comfortable silence between them, that he rarely felt with others. A smile whisks over his face as he watches him.
A moment passes, before he gets up and disappears into the kitchen, only to return with a red fox cup, filled with fruit vinegar. He takes a seat on the edge of u10's pillow, gently he leaning onto him.
"Here.", he almost whispers, while passing the cup to him.
"Asahi-kun." A genuine smile spreads across u10's lips.
"Thank you.", he says accepting the cup. "We should take a break and stretch."
Asahi chuckles and thoughtfully he taps his chin with his index finger. "How about... would you like to watch a movie?"
"Hai!", u10 replies with a hearty laughter.
あなた は わたし の とくべつ です。
You are special to me.

Still in the archives ... I took m'lady, Rosa, to New York City for our honeymoon in 2013. We've been together since 2003 but we married in 2013. No, that's not Rosa at the top of the stairs in this photo (but it is me in the bottom left corner). You can, however, see Rosa (and me) in a photo taken on that same trip in the first comment box below. :)

"And the seasons, they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return, we can only look
Behind, from where we came
And go round and round and round, in the circle game."
Many thanks to Joni Mitchell for filling this world with deep thoughts and songs.
In my garden.
I just hope it will not eat all my plants and flowers.
Dreaming of becoming a beautiful butterfly.
