West Ham United fans taking over the Römer in Frankfurt before their team played against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europe League semi-final.
We purchased a solar-powered water fountain for the birds but Kakashi loves to drink from it - especially the tasty rain water. The only actual bird tlhat uses it consistently is the Gray Catbird. There's a message in there somewhere...
At present, green is becoming more and more common in nature. To illustrate this effect, I have taken away the other colors.
No...it is not after a forest fire :-)
Zur Zeit setzt sich das Grün in der Natur durch. Um diesen Effekt zu verdeutlichen, habe ich mal die anderen Farben weggenommen.
Nein...es ist nicht nach einem Waldbrand :-)
Mostly Crested terns, with two interlopers trying to blend in.
Taken on the seafront at Warrnambool with Merri Island on the right and Middle Island on the left. This was just a small section of the huge flock of terns there that day. A Pacific Gull and a Silver Gull were trying to blend in to the crowd.
Happy Feathery Friday!
A friend gave me a very small passionflower seedling...not realizing it's capacity to thrive, I planted it in the garden beneath one of the olive trees...by the end of the summer it had spread to three other trees and was strangling them all...thinking I would let it go until fall, I left it to fruit...dug it up the following spring and I am still pulling strangler seedlings out of the garden 10 years later! If only it had been Microsoft stock!
The peaceful people of the Otawa have never been much involved with regional politics. But when their small town proves a strategic location for a group of bandit's new hideout, a massacre commences...

SUL GRETO DEL FIUME NATISONE.
Arroccata sulle rive del fiume Natisone, Cividale del Friuli ha sviluppato e mantenuto intatta nei secoli un' impronta nobile e austera, degna di una capitale dalla grande importanza strategica, segnata e arricchita dal passaggio di popoli stranieri, Longobardi e Franchi.
Il fiume Natisone è per ampiezza, caratteristiche geomorfologiche, collocazione e fauna ittica uno dei più interessanti corsi d'acqua del Friuli Venezia Giulia.
Il suo percorso è accidentato e tortuoso e attraversa valli profondamente incise con terreni prevalentemente marnosi, a tratti calcarei.

Alternative dog takes over trusty pup's bed!
Not really. This is my sister's cat (no dog in their household), and the bed, being the perfect size, was bought for the cat. hss
L'ABBAZIA CON IL TETTO CHE NON C'E'
In Val di Merse, nel territorio di Chiusdino, sorgono le maestose strutture dell’Abbazia di San Galgano, sede di uno tra i più importanti monasteri toscani eretto dall'ordine Cistercense. Quest’ultimo, istituito nel 1098 a Citeaux (in latino Cistercium) in Francia, con l'intento di riportare alla purezza la regola di San Benedetto, si era diffuso rapidamente in Europa grazie a Bernardo di Chiaravalle. Anche nell’architettura i monaci riflettevano i precetti benedettini, improntati a grande rigore e semplicità delle ornamentazioni, sebbene declinati nella realizzazione di costruzioni spettacolari.
Con l’Abbazia, che si presenta suggestivamente priva delle volte e del tetto, dialoga il vicino e più antico Eremo di Montesiepi, edificato nel luogo dell’eremitaggio di Galgano.

THE ABBEY WITHOUT A ROOF
In the Merse Valley, in the Chiusdino area, stand the majestic structures of the Abbey of San Galgano, home to one of the most important Tuscan monasteries erected by the Cistercian order. Founded in 1098 in Citeaux (Latin: Cistercium), France, with the aim of restoring the purity of the Rule of Saint Benedict, the order quickly spread throughout Europe thanks to Bernard of Clairvaux. Even in their architecture, the monks reflected the Benedictine precepts, characterized by great rigor and simplicity of ornamentation, albeit expressed in the creation of spectacular buildings.
The Abbey, which is evocatively lacking both vaults and a roof, interacts with the nearby and older Hermitage of Montesiepi, built on the site of Galgano's hermitage.

All new arrivals. I can't get within 100 Ft. or so of them or they will flock into the water. The local geese here before you could get as close as 5ft away.

Come to my Vegas gallery opening! I'm doing a takeover of a gallery in Caesars Palace from the 16th of August. I'll be there for the opening show (on the 16th), will give a short art talk, and I look forward to meeting you. See the event at www.facebook.com/events/2813649472043864/
A couple of hundred senior citizens showed up in Vero Beach, Florida to participate in the "Fight the Trump Takeover" event, a nationwide mobilization effort that comes on the heels of a showdown in Texas over electoral maps. They gathered in temperatures that exceeded 90°F (32° C) to speak up and be heard. If they can brave the hot Florida sun in August then you can speak up too. If you're not speaking up in your community then you are allowing this to happen. This event was also attended by members of the Vets Against Trump organization.
