Moena (in ladino: Moena) è un comune di 2.628 abitanti della provincia di Trento.
Moena è il più popolato paese della Val di Fassa, in Trentino, ed è sito in una conca tra le Dolomiti. È coronata da spettacolari gruppi dolomitici, quali: Catinaccio, Sassolungo, Monzoni e Latemar.
Sovrasta l'abitato la chiesa di San Vigilio, dal campanile gotico, al suo interno si trovano diverse opere del pittore moenese Valentino Rovisi (23 dicembre 1715 - 12 marzo 1783), della scuola di Tiepola.
Accanto l'antichissima chiesetta di San Volfango (1025) con affreschi del XV secolo e un pregevole soffitto barocco in legno, opera del moenese Giovanni Guadagnini (XVII secolo).
Grazie ai suoi notevoli impianti sciistici ed alla bellezza del paesaggio, l'attività economica del paese è passata, lungo la sua storia più recente (dagli inizi del 1900), dall'agricoltura, al turismo. Nel folklore locale però, si ricordano ancora gli ottimi maiali allevati in questo comune, che danno ai moenesi il soprannome di "porciè" (porcelli), che segue la tradizione delle valli di Fiemme e Fassa di dare un soprannome specifico agli abitanti dei vari paesi. La cultura, le tradizioni e l'amore per la lingua del piccolo centro sono molto forti, e vengono tutelate dall'Istituto Culturale Ladino, che si occupa di conservare al meglio gli usi e costumi di Moena e degli altri sette comuni della Valle di Fassa.

This little gathering of finches was outside my front door the other day. My cats loved watching from inside!

Even in the pouring rain the local squirrels consider any food source fair game. This one is pretending to be a bird and is clinging on to the wet (and slippery) bird feeder for dear life as it tries to get to the last of the feed! :)

I typically upload in small sets - don't just look at the latest one in my photostream as you might be missing something you'll like more.... and your comments are ALWAYS welcome :)

I watched a banditry (I just looked that one up) of chickadees each taking turns peeking in this birdhouse then flying to nearby branches. So, armed with my camera, I went out to investigate. This flying squirrel appeared, then leaped out onto a nearby tree trunk, where it stayed frozen while the chickadees chattered away at it. When I went back in the house, I looked out the window and watched the flying squirrel leap to another tree, then the top of the birdhouse before going back inside. The chickadees never bothered her again. Maybe they just had to see what was in there, give her a good scolding and forget about it. There's plenty of other birdhouses in the area for the birds.
Prise pendant notre petite Balade-extra-Parisienne à Chevreuse avec Benoît ... et puisque j'y étais, Benoît ne pouvait pas prendre les 2! Merci!
Taken during our out-of-Paris walk in the countryside at Chevreuse with Benoît .... and because I was in this position, Benoît couldn't take the same photo! Thank you!
if anyone is near Scunthorpe on Saturday it'd be great to see you - Ruth www.flickr.com/photos/60673926@N02 is also doing a workshop...
Ze komen me nu al achterna tot in huis!!!
Gelukkig de Nikon D200 net binnen handbereik.
Die oude D200 heeft nog steeds mooi kleuren en scherpte is ook netjes! Verbazingwekkend!
Als er een steekje los is is dat nu wel zichtbaar.
Na de foto hem netjes uitgelaten.
