Not all hummingbirds migrate They also eat insects and some go into a hibernation state at night when it is very cold. In spite of their tiny size they are very aggressive and I see them chasing away any and all other birds that stray into their territory. We have both Rufous and Anna's hummingbirds. on our hill. Anna's hummingbirds are a bit more colourful with both ruby and iridescent green feathers.
in honour of a slain viking supposedly found in my ancient dna analysis - on mytrueancestry.com
- not unusual in Scotland and Ireland to find Norse connections.
This group of Danish Vikings died in Britain in what is called St. Brice's Day Massacre
this is going to be part of a theme for a new exhibit
Suzanne takes you down to her place by the river
she is wearing rags and feathers from Salvation Army counters
and the sun pours down like honey on our lady of the harbour
and she shows you where to look among the garbage and the flowers
and you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there
she feeds you tea and oranges that come all the way from China Leonard Cohen

Cu Chulainn's lament
treat yourself: the great Davy Spillane on the Uilleann pipes
The name is Mór-RÃoghain in Modern Irish. It has been translated as "great queen", "phantom queen" or "mare queen". The MorrÃgan is mainly associated with war and fate, especially with foretelling doom, death or victory in battle. She often took the form of a raven during battle.
It is said she alighted on the shoulder of the great warrior Cuchulainn on the battlefield signifying his death. She had also previously appeared to him as an old woman washing clothes on the banks of the river. He knew that this was a portent of his approaching fate.
The ice trolls tried hard to fight spring... they didn't succeed. Spring is here for real so this will probably be the last winter capture for a while!
Thanks a lot for stopping by!
You should of know Norway is a land of trolls. And we've seen some. They were sleeping.
I was surprised the storm is a time for photography too. Mists and deep colors transform the view picturesque way.
The shot was taken in a small trip around Lofoten while we could not go fishing.
Thank you for all your comments and favs.

Rosslyn Chapel
is a plethora of intricate carvings, symbols and gargoyles adding to the gothic and dark mystery of the place. Built in 1446 it has long been associated with the legends surrounding the Knights Templar and the Holy Grail.
Bright sunshine and a plethora of tourists made shooting tricky so I elected for my Super Stopper and guestimated, resulting in a 188 second exposure of the sea stacks at Vik (Iceland) also known as the Trolls.
Thanks in advance for any comments or favourites you may wish to make.
Such a delight to see this gem from long ago, this was my first trip to the Denfield Rd. overpass west of London, Ontario. We affectionately called it "trolls bridge" named after the unruly homeowner on the south side of the bridge who thought it was his private bridge and hated photographers. Here we find a Canadian Pacific candy faced GP30 5000 leading a pair of GP35's with the first section of a train westbound back on June 21, 1975.
