After another day on the coast, it's getting late and time to start thinking about finding someplace for dinner before heading back over the hills for home.

Hyacinth Macaw - Vulnerable.

The Hyacinth Macaw is the largest parrot in the world and easily one of the most spectacular. It is an enormous bird weighing on average 1.5 kilograms (3.5 pounds) and is completely blue save its dark bill and bare yellow orbital ring and stripe at base of its lower mandible. It is completely dependent on the fruits of a number of palm species and has a necessarily massive bill to aid in the cracking of the tough exterior. Due to its dependence on palm fruit its range is regulated by the presence and abundance of its preferred species and is distributed in north central and south central Brazil into extreme north west Paraguay where it can be found in palm savannas, Mauritia palm stands, open dry woodland, gallery forest and the edge of humid lowland forest.

I never seem to get good Butterfly shots. I shot off maybe thirty of these and even went to get my macro camera. There were a few workable out of the A99.

Thanks to the butterfly who stayed in there while I attempted this.

I did manage to finish some song lyrics today.

Life moves about us, but we must stay and live among the living, for in time we will begin to understand and learn from those who came before us and as we progress in life, let us never loose hope, for God has a purpose for us.

“Memory warps time, as it does the sights and sounds and smells of reality; for what shapes it is emotion, which can twist what seems clear, just as the surface of a pond seems to bend the stick thrust into the water.”

A shot from two nights ago. I was really looking for a silhouette of some geese flying in front of the setting sun but that didn't quite work.

Where Our Journey Begins

Toronto, Canada - May 2020

(( Thank you for the pose @SassySweetPoses! ))

Do you remember when we fell in love

We were young and innocent then

Do you remember how it all began

It just seemed like heaven

So why did it end?

Do you remember back in the fall

We'd be together all day long

Do you remember us holding hands

In each other's eyes we'd stare

Do you remember how we used to talk

You know we'd stay on the phone at night 'til dawn

Do you remember all the things we said

Like I love you so I'll never let you go

In between my veins, a toxic madness survives,

And within my heart, a deadly sadness thrives.

"In the winter time

When all the leaves are brown

And the wind blows so chill

And the birds have all flown for the summer

I'm callin', hear me callin', hear me callin'..."

The Steve Miller Band: youtu.be/93AymOJkKcw

Time leans softly on a stack of stories,

its brass bones warm with borrowed light.

The hands move, but only just—

as if afraid to disturb the quiet.

A teacup breathes in curls of amber,

holding heat like a whispered secret,

while petals loosen from their purpose

and settle into the lace of memory.

Nothing here is in a hurry.

Even the ticking feels polite—

a gentle reminder

rather than a demand.

This is where moments come to rest,

where hours steep like leaves in water,

and the world, just for a while,

forgets to rush.
