When my friend Michael Freethy was over on holidays from America last year we would often go for breakfast to the Sugar Mountain cafe in the beautiful village of Roundwood about 4 miles away from where I live. Within five minutes of leaving my place this is the view from the top of Ballinslaughter Hill. There are about 8 mountains that suddenly appear all along the horizon. This one is Mullaghcleevaun and it has a wonderful corrie loch on top it.

We stopped the car every time and took photos but its tricky as they dont always turn out great. This one is ok and I took it last February. I was up there during the week looking at the view as I never grow tired of it. Its isolation at its finest!
Roundwood is the highest village in Ireland at 238m above sea level. To qualify as the highest village it must have a post office and Roundwood does. A very quaint one. Mike posted some cards home from it. I wonder did they ever arrive?
Id always think to myself that we would only be about an hour in the Cafe but it never worked out like that as that place somehow just gets to you and we would end up chatting and looking out the window at the beautiful place that it is, and eating apple pie and drinking gallons of tea on top of a fry up till we were stuffed!
You cant buy that really. I wonder how many people have a view like this to look at when they are going to the cafe for breafast! Im lucky and I know it! Lets hope it all opens up again soon!
Michael hasnt climbed this mountain yet but hoperully we will when he makes it over. Fingers crossed.
And the title? Its nothing to do with Breakfast kind of, but is the rhythm that the traditional Irish Reel that is played in 4/4 time.
Anyway, I hope you like the photo as its one of my favourite views and heres the Corrs " making more noise than a bag of spanners " [Terry Wogan ] live at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin. Poor Jim Corr!

Saw these two swans about 40 metres away as they were preening themselves. I waited until they made this nice shape and took some images.
These two Great Egrets were in the wrong position for the sun for what I initially wanted, so I walked along a bit and tried out a backlit shot! They are showing the bright green breeding colours near the eye. Shot taken in Florida earlier this year.
As always, thank you for stopping by and looking at my images, any comments and faves are always appreciated.

Two geese out for a stroll captured at a pond where we maybe shouldn't have been, but were. :) Hope everyone is enjoying a peaceful Sabbath and a happy weekend!
Based on my observations of newt behavior and the time of year, I believe this is a male checking out a female.
Note the eye size difference between these chicks, born about a week apart. The food the parent is offering appears to be a dragonfly nymph.

Primary inspiration for this week's MM is the song "Big Eyed Fish" by Dave Matthew's Band. Secondary inspiration is a bit more strained - small Venetian glass fish bowl was a gift for my daughter who is named after Eric Clapton's "Layla".
HMM all!

Distinctive pair and . . they both are designed to use their razor-sharp wheels to cut slices through pizzas! But these two specific bikes will not be used for that and instead will be enjoyed TOGETHER as a pair of lovely and unique objects.
Theme: "TWO-GETHER""
Thank you for taking the time to view this photo, faves and comments from you are greatly appreciated.
The natural world, moreover, is still undergoing a transformation for which the word “drama” is more appropriate than a term like “design” or “plan.” The theological significance of our focus on drama rather than design is that a drama can be the carrier of a meaning that presently lies hidden in the future…
… Theology, as I understand it, looks for the presence of God not in the breaks but in the blossoming of nature…
… Traditional theology’s lack of interest in the cosmic journey is forgivable, of course, since only after Einstein could it have learned that the entire universe is a continuous narrative and not just a platform from which to launch our spiritual adventures.

A trio of Susquehanna Yellowjacket EMDs drill out cars at CP BD on the former Erie, while Norfolk Southern freight 12T pulls west behind a trio of GEs from East Binghamton yard on the former Lackawanna. The standard cab ex-Conrail C40-8s were a pretty rare catch. The sun was shining on this day in Binghamton, New York but alas, the 12T wouldn't make it past Johnson City in daylight.
