Great Crested Grebe - Podiceps Cristatus
BIRD GUIDES NOTEABALE PHOTO May 26-4 June 2019
The great crested grebe has an elaborate mating display. Like all grebes, it nests on the water's edge, since its legs are set relatively far back and it is thus unable to walk very well. Usually two eggs are laid, and the fluffy, striped young grebes are often carried on the adult's back. In a clutch of two or more hatchlings, male and female grebes will each identify their 'favourites', which they alone will care for and teach
Unusually, young grebes are capable of swimming and diving almost at hatching. The adults teach these skills to their young by carrying them on their back and diving, leaving the chicks to float on the surface; they then re-emerge a few feet away so that the chicks may swim back onto them.
The great crested grebe feeds mainly on fish, but also small crustaceans, insects small frogs and newts.
This species was hunted almost to extinction in the United Kingdom in the 19th century for its head plumes, which were used to decorate hats and ladies' undergarments. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds was set up to help protect this species, which is again a common sight.
The great crested grebe and its behaviour was the subject of one of the landmark publications in avian ethology: Julian Huxley's 1914 paper on The Courtship‐habits of the Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus).

When a crane comes into your life as a spirit teacher or totem, you are being asked to use your past as a source of strength in the present. They tend to appear in the lives of people who are well served by some degree of secrecy in their lives. The crane teaches about keeping your own counsel, protection of family, and balance in life above all else.💕
An encounter with a crane is a powerful experience. You are being asked to look inward, show fairness to all persons, and protect your wisdom while sharing it in appropriate ways. In short, you are being shown the way to balance and good fortune❣
Wonderful evening to you

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm going to make a lot of money
Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
Oh, I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
(River, Joni Mitchell, 1971)
Teach Your Children
You, who are on the road
Must have a code that you can live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
And you, of tender years
You can't know the fears that your elders grew by
And so, please, help them with your youth
'Cause they seek the truth before they can die
Teach your children well
Their father's hell will slowly go by
And feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you

A letter arrived to Everett. It read, "We need to talk..." Little did the two of them know this talk would go so well, in fact it ended with a lesson in feeding the squid. What could be more romantic than feeding a giant squid some buttered toast?

OMY Autumn Poses 3 Eyes Focus for Anthem (october round)
There's something about the way a flower opens itself up to the world. It puts it all out there, beauty, colour, pollen, nectar...everything it has and everything it is. It's all there for us to see and enjoy, take it or leave it, no admission charge or viewing fee.
Open, vulnerable, generous, happy. There's plenty here for me to learn :)

Hace tiempo leí que un fotógrafo famoso decía que una fotografía no es arte si no es en Blanco y Negro. No estoy de acuerdo para nada, ya que definir la palabra “arte” podría ocupar la mitad del espacio que dispongo en Flickr.
Pero es que además, si colores hay miles o millones, los blancos y negros les ocurre algo similar. Podemos fotografiar un centenar de fotógrafos el mismo objeto en blanco y negro y el resultado nunca será el mismo.
Para poner solo un ejemplo, he subido a mi galería dos fotografías en blanco y negro que si bien están hechas en la mismas fechas y en la misma ciudad, luego están tratadas de diferente forma. El resultado es completamente distinto
La que podríamos denominar “mercado”, tiene unos blancos y negros puros mientras que la otra que podríamos denominar “fuente”, es mucho más suave con una escala de grises y un ligerísimo tono amarronado.
Las fotos no tienen nada de especial ya que son solo una muestra y no quiero extenderme más ni dar lecciones a nadie.
Solo puedo añadir que se trata de Saint Etienne, una ciudad que su mayor mérito es que se encontraba a medio camino de mi destino final por lo que pasé en ella un día de descanso.
Si clicas dos (2) veces encima de las fotografias, podras verlas con su máximo detalle. Gracias

Long ago I read that a famous photographer said that a photograph is not art if it is not in Black and White. I do not agree at all, since defining the word "art" could take up half the space I have on Flickr.
But it is also that if there are thousands or millions of colors, blacks and whites do something similar. We can photograph a hundred photographers the same black and white object and the result will never be the same.
To give just one example, I have uploaded to my gallery two black and white photographs that, although they were taken on the same dates and in the same city, are then treated differently. The result is completely different.
The one that we could call "market", has some pure whites and blacks while the other that we could call "font", is much softer with a gray scale and a very light brownish tone.
There is nothing special about the photos since they are only a sample and I do not want to extend myself further or teach anyone.
I can only add that it is Saint Etienne, a city that its greatest merit is that it was halfway to my final destination, so I spent a day off there.
One thing isn't very clear, my love
Should the teacher stand so near, my love?
Graduation's almost here, my love
Teach me, please, teach me tonight
Half way through our first recovery ale of the day and the heavens opened. It kept raining so we decided more drinks were required. Unfortunately for us, we had left our helmets clipped to the front wheels of our bikes. That'll teach us!!
Seattle is known for it's love of coffee and for foisting Starbucks Coffee on the world. Although this coffee house is not a Starbucks, it is a popular hangout. The mural honors Kevin Barnett, a comedian who died last year. The artist is tenhun, who owns Statix, a nearby clothing store and also teaches classes on how to paint murals, etc.
I can be your dominatrix
Just submit to my every order
Enter my diamond matrix
Devour my golden flower
Make me your priority
There's nothing above my pleasure
She may be the queen of hearts
But I'mma be the queen of your body parts
I'm a train wreck in the morning
I'm a bitch in the afternoon
Every now and then without warning
I can be really mean towards you
I'm a puzzle yes in deed
Ever complex in every way
And all the pieces aren't even in the box
And yet, you see the picture clear as day.
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
And that's why I love you
I neglect you when I'm working
When I need attention I tend to nag
I'm a host of imperfection
And you see past all that
I'm a peasant by some standards
But in your eyes I'm a queen
You see potential in all my flaws
and that's exactly what I need.
I don't know why you love me
And that's why I love you
You catch me when I fall
Accept me flaws and all
and that's why I love you

The height of hypocrisy - "Those who supply weapons that kill children cannot teach humanity to Muslims," said Iran's new president Masoud Pezeshkian amid chants of "Death to America" and "Death to Israel."
Starting in 2022, Iran supplies Russia, which unreasonably attacked Ukraine, with thousands of Shahed drones and components for them. The Russians send these drones at night to sleeping cities and villages. These drones kill Ukrainians. What and whose humanity is he talking about?
Вершина лицемірства - "Ті, хто постачає зброю, яка вбиває дітей, не можуть вчити мусульман гуманності", – сказав новий президент Ірану Масуд Пезешкіан під скандування "Смерть Америці" і "Смерть Ізраїлю".
Починаючи з 2022 року Іран поставляє России, яка безпідставно напала на Україну, тисячі дронів «Шахед» та комплектуючі до них. Росіяни відправляють ці дрони вночі на сплячі міста та села України. Ці дрони вбивають українців. Про яку і чию гуманність він говорить?
If we want to leave a better world for our children, we have to look after our environment understanding the harm that we are doing and therefore try to avoid continuing the damage we are perpetuating. Let's teach our children from a young age how to change our habits to achieve that goal!

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
On peut reconnaître le perron liégeois et les personnages du dessinateur de bandes dessinées François Walthéry, Natacha, l'hôtesse de l'air et le colombophile "Li Vî bleu".
Il s’agit d’un convoi dans l’esprit des antiques caravanes de la soie. L’oeuvre amplifiera le projet initié par Dominique Matagne, artiste, professeur d’arts plastiques et gérante du Comptoir de la céramique. Elle le complétera « à cent doigts », doigts de ses amis, artistes passionnés, tous porteurs du projet.
A l’heure où les questions du climat et de la mobilité sont au cœur de tous les débats, la « Caravane des Possibles » illustrera une autre façon de se déplacer en dehors des schémas actuels qui sont profondément remis en cause. Elle permettra de mener à bien une réflexion autour d’une mobilité rêvée, voire poétique ou utopique, à laquelle seul l’art peut donner accès.
La caravane questionne sur la problématique des migrants, celle des départs, des fuites de tous ordres. Quelles directions prendra cette caravane ? Pourquoi ? Comment ?
Ce sont peut-être les questions que l’oeuvre éveillera chez le spectateur…
You can recognize the steps from Liège and the characters of the cartoonist François Walthéry, Natacha, the air hostess and the pigeon fancier "Li Vî bleu".
It is a convoy in the spirit of the ancient silk caravans. The work will amplify the project initiated by Dominique Matagne, artist, plastic arts teacher and manager of the Comptoir de la Céramique. She will complete it "with a hundred fingers", fingers of her friends, passionate artists, all carriers of the project.
At a time when climate and mobility issues are at the heart of all debates, the “Caravane des Possibles” will illustrate another way of getting around outside of current patterns that are deeply questioned. It will make it possible to carry out a reflection around a dream mobility, even poetic or utopian, to which only art can give access.
The caravan questions the issue of migrants, that of departures, escapes of all kinds. What directions will this caravan take? For what ? How ?
These are perhaps the questions that the work will awaken in the viewer...
Look Mom! I can fly!

"Remember the fallen. Honor those who serve. Teach the next generation the value of freedom."
These are the words from Wreaths Across America's (WAA) website noted as "Our Mission". And, it is clearly observed in their commitment to the soldiers buried across the country in the many "national cemetery's" with the wreaths placed against the headstones. However, this is just one of the many ways that WAA remembers, honors, and teaches the next generation about our fallen. Please check out their website for more information about the many ways they accomplish this goal...
Additionally, the location of the photograph above is the Nashville National Cemetery in Madison, Tennessee (just north of Downtown Nashville) which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). More information about this "national cemetery" can be found here:
