Le design particulier du centre de quartier L’Arbrisseau est mis en valeur par son revêtement en aluminium non traité et en verre. Les fenêtres ouvrantes transparentes offrent différentes vues. Les fenêtres translucides, protégées selon le principe de l'éco-conception, créent différentes qualités de lumière. Ils garantissent des conditions visuelles et thermiques optimales été comme hiver.
The particular design of the L’Arbrisseau neighborhood centre is emphasised by its untreated aluminium and glass sheathing. The transparent opening windows offer different views. Translucide windows, protected according to the principle of eco-design, create different qualities of light. They guarantee optimum visual and thermal conditions in summer and winter.
At day time n the desert, you can see their tracks on the sand but you cannot see them. They - all - go under the sand. So, when you take a walk in the desert during the day, don't think there is no creature around. Repeat again and again .. "They're here."
They are distinguished from true owls by their faces, long, lower-positioned beaks, and smaller eyes.
They grow freely in my garden...
Erigeron annuus, the annual fleabane, daisy fleabane, or eastern daisy fleabane, is a species of herbaceous, annual or biennial flowering plant in the family Asteraceae.
All pots and food bowls are washed before the next day's cooking and feeding, this is done everyday all year long
Every day, all the year round, the people at the shelter takes care of 150-200 dogs; cooking, feeding, cleaning, giving nursing care of the animals. The staff has dedicated their lives to giving these animals a second chance, some of them giving up successful careers to spend all their time looking after the welfare of the animals.
Apart from dogs there are cats, cows and buffalos, just to mention some of the species living at the shelter. The shelter also works to reduce the stray dog population by their catch-neuter-return program.
vspca.org is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO). To conduct their business the shelter is dependent on donations for medication, food and maintenance of the facility. So why not give the animals in Visakhaptnam a well needed gift? vspca.org/donate/

Someone left the gate open...
Koepelgevangenis (Panipticon-style prison), Arnhem, The Netherlands).
Closed in 2016.
Design: Johan Metzelaar (1886).
What's in a name (translated Johan Mason)?
They're only new once! A quartet of ES44C4's bring BNSF Train Z ALTWSP9 21A past the former Santa Fe station site of Zarah, KS on the BNSF Emporia Sub. on their first revenue run. These engines, built earlier that month at the GE Ft. Worth, TX plant, will be among the last Tier 3 GEVO's produced.
To use a sometimes trite phrasing, you could smell the paint as they rolled by--seriously. Regardless of color or owner, a new locomotive is a new locomotive. Thanks to the Little Birdie Phoam Network for the heads up on these.
Locomotives: BNSF 8377, BNSF 8375, BNSF 8376, BNSF 8374

They really look a bit rough at the moment (those that are left), but never the less very attractive.
They will probably return to Iceland to breed. The stained head and neck of the foreground bird come from the tannin in the waters where it feeds on aquatic vegetation. Looks like this one is a bottom feeder.

Suddenly another bird arrived and he/she fluff up the feathers to look much larger than they really are and face an attacker boldly.
Momotus aequatorialis (Andean motmot / Barranquero)
Bird in freedom. La Ceja, Colombia; Central Andes; 2.300 meters above sea level.
The Andean Motmot, as the English name implies, is the Andean representative of the "Blue-crowned Motmot" complex. For many years, all members of this group were considered to be conspecific, but this group now is reclassified as representing five different species. The Andean Motmot occurs in humid montane forests of the Andes mountains of South America, from Colombia south to Bolivia. Andean motmot is a big bird about 50 cm from beak to tail.
These birds often sit still, and in their dense forest habitat can be difficult to see, despite their size. They eat small prey such as insects and lizards, and will also regularly take fruit.
They may look like normal size leaves, but these are miniature Oak leaves growing off of that single little stem that has broken out from the trunk of the tree.
This tree is in my landscape and these triplet beauties caught my eye as I was cutting the grass yesterday.
In the house I went, grabbed my macro lens, and captured them from several angles. Here is the result.
What is it about autumn leaves that are so beautiful?!
The snow geese have returned to central California! In large numbers! Even though the wetlands preserve are only starting to get some water in!
Gray Lodge Wildlife Area, Gridley, Ca. Nov. 2020. And FYI there were just as many mosquitos as birds there.
They are referring to this part of the Sierra Nevada Mtns of northern California as THE LOST SIERRAS
They are a vibrant, striking butterfly. Their wing colour can vary from yellow to creamy white, with dark margins.
Their caterpillars are a well camouflaged green colour with creamy white lines along each side.
The Lemon Migrant is found across tropical Australia – from Western Australia to all the way across to Queensland, and then throughout eastern parts of Queensland and New South Wales.
Large migrations of Lemon Migrants sometimes occur with butterflies flying from south to north.
The Lemon Migrant caterpillars feed on Cassia fistula tree and other native Cassia, and can often be found in suburban gardens.
Grass Pyralid Moth (family Crambidae(subfamily Crambinae))
Back all of a sudden and in good numbers. This one chose a good spot to rest for a photo.
It has been a long and busy day and I am weary, it might take me a while to catch up!
En la plaza se encuentran los tres monumentos más representativos de esta población.
Por un lado, el Ayuntamiento, de estilo renacentista y con una sencilla fachada coronada por la torre del reloj.
Por otro, la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, de estilo gótico-renacentista con una bellísima portada hispano-flamenca, y en cuyo interior se conserva el sepulcro de los Hurtado de Mendoza.
Ante estos dos edificios, se sitúa el Rollo Jurisdiccional, una típica picota castellana de estilo gótico considerada el símbolo de la villa.
....they leave us all the more vibrant for the pleasure of their company.
(and the pun is entirely intentional)
They had finally realized their feelings for one another, these two childhood friends, and confessed them to each other over the summer. Half quiet cunning, half bubbling enthusiasm: They now return to Hogwarts for their 6th Year as a couple.
(Posing done by me. Also featuring Marigold's new and amazing look.)
They are showing some of their breeding plumage. The colors are real! Peak breeding plumage occurs in mid January.
They saw me! At a distance even difficult with 400mm, this semi wild herd at Hackwood Park in Basingstoke. The deer are in a huge enclosure with its own woodland and lake. Often it is impossible to see them but they came out into the sun for Christmas! We had a wonderful day but today we are back to high winds and heavy rain!!
Native Masked Bee (Hylaeus Rhodohylaeus) female
Lovely to see these back in the garden for the season.
