The Small Heath - Coenonympha pamphilus - butterfly is widespread in the UK and is the smallest of the Nymphalidae family commonly known as 'The Browns'. It flies only in sunshine and rarely settles more than a metre above the ground. Its wings are always kept closed when at rest as the eye spot on the underside of the forewing is usually visible, acting as a decoy to any predator. Found in a wide variety of habitats, its larvae feed on grasses whilst the adults feed on nectar from flowers. This one was enjoying a feed on the Common Ragwort - Senecio jacobaea - a member of the Aster family.

Three Sisters - Katoomba in some 'less than ideal' light thanks to an approaching storm this afternoon...
Smoke from wildfires cast a veil around the Three Sisters mountains at sunset tonight, as seen in this roadside view.
Monument Valley - 23 DEC 2016
Three Sisters rock formation in Monument Valley in early morning light a day after a small snow storm.
I am not a geologist, so my fascination with Sedona's rock formation is based only on appearance. When the Three Sisters announced they were "Ready for Our Closeup" I couldn't resist. I love the way the razor-sharp upright Sisters pose in front of the jumbled rocks of the canyon wall in their contrasting colors.

The Three Sisters, an unusual rock formation close to Katoomba, in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales.
This is the name given to three ridges – 'Beinn Fhada', 'Gearr Aonach', and 'Aonach Dubh' – on the 'Bidean nam Bian' mountain, which lies at the southern end of Glencoe.

A new part of Sisters Oregon added this scenic viewpoint along with a rather nice selection of homes. Broken top is on the left behind some trees, then South Sister, Middle Sister (sharp point on top), and North Sister.

Many of you have seen my photos of Nauset Light, the red and white lighthouse, with its alternating red and white beacon. If you've followed some of the posts, you know also that not long ago (1996), it was moved inland 300 feet.
Before today's Nauset Light was positioned on the ever-shrinking shoreline, there used to be three small lighthouses known as the "Three Sisters." They stood close together and each shown a single white light.
They overlooked the bluffs above the waves for many years toward the end of the 19th century and well into the 20th, but the sea eventually overtook them as well. In 1911, Two were sold and one relocated inland. It remained there until 1923 when it was replaced by today's structure.
These photos show the foundation of that "Middle" Sister, 300 feet or more east of today's cliff edge, and maybe 60 feet lower than where it once stood. It's interesting that it remains upright, and is a striking measuring stick for a hundred years of erosion.
