A rather common warbler found throughout the Himalayan Belt. We sighted them almost everyday much of the journey. I know now that these are endemic to the Himalayas.

 

These are small birds - maybe less than 10 cms and incredibly active in the roadside bushes, trees and clumps of vegetation. I love the color of these birds and they are quite agile. The birds feed on small seeds, tree insects like Spiders, caterpillars and berries maybe. We never saw them on the ground anytime and most of the time were shooting almost 70-80 deg upwards. Except onetime when we were overlooking a valley and got this shot!

 

Thanks in advance for your views, faves and feedback if any.

It's coming round again

The slowly creeping hand

Of time and its command

Soon enough it comes

and settles in its place

Its shadow in my face

Puts pressure in my day

 

This life well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

 

It's coming round again

The slowly creeping hand

Of time and its demands

It settles in its place

Its shadow in my face

Undignified and lame

 

This life well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

Control well it's slipping right through my hands

These days turned out nothing like I had planned

 

Soon enough it comes

Soon enough it comes

To tie us down

These two wild stallions were exchanging postures in a stand off over who had the right to have his herd in the area. Sometimes it seems this is exactly the posture you see between humans.

I'm off early morning volunteering to manage habitat for High Brown Fritillaries , think we're having a fire today and baked potatoes so should be fun. Another sunset shot from the other evening. these Days are Mine is by I Am Kloot.

These guys are not super common around here so it is a real pleasure to discover one among the regular winter residents like the Golden-Crowned Sparrow and the White-Crowned Sparrow

These pesky mandrakes are a pain to deal with!

These aqueducts, built in a spiral to allow aeration of the water, were built 2000 years ago and are still in active use today

These red-bellied woodpeckers have some really neat black and white striped designs on their back and tail.

These two characters live next door and we've become good friends during the lockdown period. They were hatched and raised by my neighbour and they crave human company especially a stroke of the head and a cuddle. In this case at least, appearances are very deceptive!

These are shadows on a sheer curtain. The lines are from window blinds. I laid on the floor and took the photo looking up.

These are my favorite hawk like birds. This one had some leftover fish fragments from dinner stuck on its tooth, I mean beak.

These are mini bottles, each 2,5 cm in diameter, glued together, for tiny flowers like daisies. The different colors of the little bottles seemed to be a good start for this week's macro theme. Some light added a bit atmosphere.

HMM to all participants 💙💙💙

 

These guys sing later in the season than most other male songbirds. Listen near wet thickets for "Fire! Fire! Where? Where? Here! Here! Put it out! Put it out!

These two formations dominate Castle Valley, a short way off Highway 128, a few miles north of Moab

These Snowies are often found on fence posts in the middle of the farm fields. Always presents a great photo opportunity.

These are among my favourite birds, inquisitive, interesting and so expressive, they are such a joy to photograph and watch in the north! Only the smartest birds can survive in such conditions, and the Canada Jay is certainly among the most intelligent.

These amazing gowns by Belle Epoque can be found at this round of the Arcade. The gowns are super beautiful and I love that all the various pieces can be worn as separates with really any outfit of your choice. They can be dressed up for fantasy attire and still be worn as day wear. Such talent surrounds us.....

These three descend on a cloudy late winter day.

These wild white-tailed deer does have found a fairly safe spot to sleep there behind those tall weeds that form a nice tight screening fence.

After a long day hiking with friends, we wrapped it up at Gold Creek Pond. The sun had just set and the fog was building up. We were suprised to see so much untouched snow in such a popular area, but we ended that soon! Took a bunch of cool selfies and then messed around with these holes.

These prehistoric looking birds were so much fun to look at in the Amazon!

These two ladies are close firends I see them together each week and even though I can't hear what they say, you should hear these ladies giggle the night away.

These dinner plate hibiscus don't last long but they are showy for a couple of weeks, Shown here hanging out with a Black eyed Susan.

These old school buses remind me what happens as you grow too old - the kids don't come to visit anymore!

 

Happy Truck Thursday!

These white-tailed deer are enjoying a balmy evening here at Lake Meyer Park as the temperature hovers around 0 F/-18 C. Without any wind to deal with it almost felt warm for a change!

You want commitment

Take a look into these eyes

They burn with fire

Until the end of time

And I would do anything

I'd beg, I'd steal, I'd die

To have you in these arms tonight

 

Baby, I want you

Like the roses want the rain

You know I need you

Like a poet needs the pain

And I would give anything

My blood, my love, my life

If you were in these arms tonight

 

I'd hold you

I'd need you

I'd get down on my knees for you

And make everything alright

If you were in these arms

I'd love you

I'd please you

I'd tell you that I'd never leave you

And love you 'til the end of time

If you were in these arms tonight

 

We stared at the sun

And we made a promise

A promise this world

Would never blind us

And these were our words

Our words were our songs

Our songs are our prayers

These prayers keep me strong

And I still believe

If you were in these arms

 

I'd hold you

I'd need you

I'd get down on my knees for you

And make everything alright

If you were in these arms

I'd love you

I'd please you

I'd tell you that I'd never leave you

And love you 'til the end of time

If you were in these arms tonight

 

Your clothes are still scattered all over our room

This whole place still smells like your cheap perfume

Everything here reminds me of you

And there's nothing I wouldn't do

 

And these were our words

They keep me strong, baby

 

I'd hold you

I'd need you

I'd get down on my knees for you

And make everything alright

If you were in these arms

I'd love you

I'd please you

I'd tell you that I'd never leave you

And love you 'til the end of time

If you were in these arms tonight

 

If you were in these arms tonight

If you were in these arms tonight

If you were in these arms, baby

 

Like the roses need the rain

Like the seasons need to change

Like a poet needs the pain

I need you in these arms tonight

These trees seems to cry for help, probably any help will be too late 😢

These impressing monkeys have an amazing mimikry. Its a subspecies of baboons wich live in the "Tierpark Berlin". Only one day with good weather when we were in Berlin for a long weekend - so we choosed to try to make some sunshine photos away from the many tourists in the inner city. This was a good idea.. :-D

Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend :D

Another one from the archives, of a night when I was the first and only person to get around Nash Point on a dropping tide. the freshly exposed rock layers were still glistening from the tide as the setting sun coloured up the cliffs and clouds. I can't wait to experience these special moments the world can give us again. Times Like These is by Foo Fighters and I think I'll have a go at singing it today after my breakfast disco :))) Perhaps I;l get the children next door who sit on the wall and keep me company to join in on the chorus ;)))

These mountains are located on the west side of Loch Lomond.

 

Thank you in advance for your interest and comments on my photos. That is much appreciated.

Please view at the full size of 1600. It's also more pleasure for you.

(I hope so)

 

These owls roost in the day, usually in pairs. When disturbed they may fly in bright sunshine although they choose to shelter within a dense grove of trees. They produce an eerie chuhua-aa call with a quaver in the second note. This call is an antiphonal duet of the male and female. The male calls one or two times followed by the female's shorter and less tremulous version. The calling is more frequent in November when the begin to breed. Most Nests are found from February to April. They also produce a single note hoot and a screech not unlike that of the barn owl. The nest is a tree hollow in which two to three white eggs are laid. They feed on palm squirrels, mice
