Eu não me canso de fotografar as garças e seus hábitos.
Nesta captura eu estava bem próxima, mas acho que já se acostumaram comigo!
Thanks to everyone who took time to view, comment or fave!!
after several tense minutes between Pearl and Dora, Dora decided to chill out and Pearl was finally able to settle onto the other cushion of the loveseat, and everyone went back to sleep.
Heavy rain over Death Valley National Park on October 18 created the temporary Lake Manly on the Badwater Salt Flats. This causes the salt flats to become resurfaced with a new layer of white rock salt as the salty water dries, so instead of the dirty, dusty surface that has been common in recent years, Badwater should look very different this year.
These Houses were built between the 1920s and the 1940s.Some have been regenerated while others have been boarded-up and awaiting demolition.....Hull City Council as allocated ten of these Houses to be temporary used by Graffiti artists to help spruce up and add a bit of colour to this run-down estate until demolition starts on them.

That day, winter remembered itself in quite a spectacular way. All-day snowfall resulted in the entire landscape being covered with white, which disappeared quite quickly the next day. It may be short, but effective.

Tego dnia zima przypomniała o sobie w dość spektakularny sposób. Całodniowe opady śniegu zaowocowały pokryciem białą szatą całego krajobrazu, która już następnego dnia dość szybko zniknęła. Taka to zima. Może i krótko, ale konkretnie.

Μπάλτα ντι στρίγκα
Ένας μέχρι πρό λίγων ετών άγνωστος για τους περισσοτέρους φυσικός θησαυρός της Ηπειρώτικης γής είναι οι εικονιζόμενοι καταρράκτες με το Βλάχικο όνομα Μπάλτα ντί στρίγκα ( η οβίρα=μικρή λίμνη της κραυγής) στο Ηλιοχώρι του κεντρικού Ζαγορίου.
Η ονομασία προέρχεται από έναν σχετικό μύθο για μιάν απελπισμένη ερωτικά κοπέλα η οποία εξ αιτίας του χωρισμού από τον καλό της αυτοκτόνησε στα νερά τους και από τότε ακούγονται οι κραυγές της.Στο να γίνει ο τόπος προσφάτως σχετικά,ευρύτερα γνωστός,αναμφιβόλως συνετέλεσε και η αναβάθμιση του μέχρι πρότινος δύσβατου μονοπατιού το οποίο οδηγούσε εκεί σε μια σύγχρονη και πλήρως εναρμονισμένη με το περιβάλλον ορεινή περιπατητική διαδρομή.
Το μονοπάτι διανοίχθηκε και σημάνθηκε άριστα σε,όλο το μήκος του,στρώθηκε επιμελώς με τα υλικά τα οποία βρίθουν στην περιοχή,πέτρα,χαλίκι και ξύλο με ξύλινα στηθαία όπου κρίθηκε απαραίτητο,δημιουργήθηκε χώρος προσωρινής στάσης για ανάπαυση με τρεχούμενο νερό,ακόμη και ένα εξαιρετικά καλαίσθητο ξύλινο γεφυράκιι χτίστηκε ώστε η πρόσβαση των πολλών πλέον καθημερινών επισκεπτών να γίνει όσο το δυνατόν πιο εύκολη γρήγορη και ασφαλής.
Η σύζυγος κι εγώ είχαμε την επιπλέον χαρά να μας καθοδηγήσει ο…αυτοδιορισθείς ξεναγός του χωριού ο εικονιζόμενος εκπληκτικός,καθαρόαιμος, Ελληνικός ποιμενικός ο οποίος ακούει στο όνομα….Νταβέλης :ο))) !!! προφανώς λόγω της γιγαντόσωμης διάπλασής του.
Μας….παρέλαβε από το πρώτο πλάτωμα του χωριού στην κορυφή ,μας…παρέδωσε στον προορισμό μας στα ριζά του βουνούκαι,αφού πρώτα πήρε και το αναζωογονητικό μπανάκι του στα παγωμένα νερά,αναχώρησε προς άγραν νέων….πελατών :ο))) !!!
Το (υπερ)θέαμα σου κόβει την ανάσα παρ’όλο που το επισκεφθήκαμε καλοκαίρι κατά την διάρκεια του οποίου η ροή των υδάτων δεν είναι τόσο εντυπωσιακή σε όγκο και δύναμη όπως τις άλλες εποχές-φθινόπωρο και χειμώνα κυρίως-διότι τα νερά προέρχονται αποκλειστικά από το λιώσιμο του χιονιού και είναι τόσο καθαρά ώστε μπορεί κανείς να πιεί άφοβα απ’αυτά!
Την ανάσα σου κόβει,όμως,κυριολεκτικά και η ανηφόρα της επιστροφής(καθώς τα περισσότερα από τα 1200 μέτρα της τα κάνεις σχεδόν….κάθετα προςτον ουρανό)ιδίως όταν είσαι φορτωμένος με φωτογραφικές «γκουμούτσες» σαν τις δικές μου και-κυρίως-με το…κοντέρ της ηλικίας να απέχει πλέον μόλις 4 γραμμές από τα 60!!!
Ευτυχώς περάσαμε με επιτυχία αυτό το λίγο βίαιο “τέστ κοπώσεως” και επιφυλασσόμεθα-πρώτα ο Θεός-για μιάν επόμενη σε προσφορότερη εποχή επίσκεψη.
Balta di striga
A until a few years unknown for most people natural treasure of Epirus earth are the released waterfalls with Vlachiko name Balta Di striga (the ovires = small lake scream) in Iliochori central Zagori.The name comes from a legend related to a desperate erotic girl which because of separation from her lover of suicide in their waters and then the screams heard.
To be the place recently regarding, widely known, undoubtedly contributed to the upgrading of previously inaccessible path that led there in a modern and fully harmonized with the environment ambulatory mountainous route.The path was drilled and labeled in excellent, full length, was covered thoroughly with the materials that abound in the area, stone, gravel and wood with wooden parapets where necessary, created a temporary staging area for rest with running water,even an extremely elegant wooden small bridge is built to access the many daily visitors become as easy fast and safe as possible.
My wife and I have the additional pleasure to guide us a depicted surprising, blooded, Greek shepherd who goes by the name ... .Ntavelis: o))) !!! apparently because of the giant physique.He took us the first plateau of the village at the top,... gave us our destination at the roots of the mountain and, after taking its refreshing banana into the icy waters,departed chasing... new clients : o))) !!!
The attraction is breathtaking although we visited summer during which the water flow is not as impressive in size and strength as the other seasons-autumn and winter-mainly because the waters come exclusively from melting snow and is so clean that you can drink without fear of them!
But breathtaking is, literally the acclivity of turn back too (as most of the 1200 meters of this acclivity is ... almostvertical to the sky), especially when you are laden with my heavy cameras -and mainly-by ... the speedometer of age to is now just 4 lines of 60 !!!
Luckily we passed successfully this little violent "stress-test" and we reserve first-God-for a next to a more appropriate time visit.
Transient vendors (or non-stall holders) sell fresh vegetables and some fresh fruits at or near the staircase of the southernmost side of the municipal public market, whose main entrance faces East.
Most of the transient vendors shown here belong to the indigenous people, known as Aeta, many of whom live at hillside areas at remote villages in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.

After a day battling roadworks and temporary traffic lights around Devon, there's nothing nicer than getting home to find a set on my street.

I was in Parkanaur forest park one evening last year and only had my phone with me... ever the opportunist, I snapped these gorgeous rhododendron blossoms and was pretty pleased with the result.
Just a few days later and the petals were gone..... As always, nature has a way of teaching us life lessons... In a day and age when looks and beauty are counted so important (by the fashion/beauty industry - not by me!!!) it's wise to remember that these things only last for a while and that real beauty comes from deep within, it's the heart that counts!!!! and that's not just something "ugly" people say! :)
I will be off air for a while - have an important visitor from Canada coming to stay with me for a couple of days - so i'm busy making fudge, banoffee pie, chocolate cake and loads of other goodies lol
Have a great weekend everyone and thank you for your views, comments and faves :) :) :)
