The University of Coimbra (UC; Portuguese: Universidade de Coimbra) is a Portuguese public university in Coimbra, Portugal. First established in Lisbon in 1290, it went through a number of relocations until moving permanently to Coimbra in 1537. The university is among the oldest universities in continuous operation in the world, the oldest in Portugal, and played a influential role in the development of higher education in the Portuguese-speaking world. In 2013, UNESCO declared the university a World Heritage Site, noting its architecture, unique culture and traditions, and historical role.
This unique flower was in a bouquet I received for a birthday gift. I'm thinking it's a Chrysanthemum but if it's something else, please let me know.
Thank you all so much for your visits, faves and comments. Have a lovely day!
Unique medium-sized owl of the boreal forest. Remarkably long-tailed for an owl; reminiscent of a small hawk in flight with quick, snappy wingbeats. Pale eyes give it an angry look. Brownish overall with white spotting above, barred underparts, and spotted crown. Feeds on small rodents by sight and sound. Often seen perched on the very top of a spruce tree or snag, surveying the surrounding landscape for prey. When rodent populations crash, large numbers of Northern Hawk Owls can move south of their normal range. (eBird)
Ottawa River Lookout, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. March 2022.
The unique shape of the 15m high sea stack resembles a giant dinosaur enjoying a drink from the ocean.
The shot was taken at sunrise (and what a sunrise it was!) on my last day in Iceland. What a glorious way to end such an unforgettable trip!

Old, unique, and full of personality… The Tufa is otherworldly, but you need to search to find the best views. When we finally arrived at the South Tufa in the afternoon, we were thrilled and surprised by the number and beauty of these incredible God made structures on the lake... There is an easy boardwalk trail down to the Lake. The views are magnificent and beautiful. This lake is often used as the face of 'wish you were here' postcards, and deservedly so.

“By being yourself you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before.” – Edwin Elliott
and this is a beautiful, beautiful thing, grasshopper.
Libba Bray.
Grasshoppers are insects of the suborder Caelifera within the order Orthoptera, which includes crickets and their allies in the other suborder Ensifera. They are probably the oldest living group of chewing herbivorous insects, dating back to the early Triassic around 250 million years ago. Grasshoppers are typically ground-dwelling insects with powerful hind legs which enable them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously. They are hemimetabolous insects (they do not undergo complete metamorphosis) which hatch from an egg into a nymph or "hopper" which undergoes five moults, becoming more similar to the adult insect at each developmental stage. At high population densities and under certain environmental conditions, some grasshopper species can change colour and behaviour and form swarms. Under these circumstances they are known as locusts.

It is standing there like a visitor from another world, this small beech surrounded by large and small spruce trees. It's a late riser, because even though it's mid-April it is still in it's hibernation pajama.
A few years ago, the future tree took the chance when a few of the big ones fell at this point, allowing more light to reach the forest floor. Now it bravely fights it's way up into the canopy before the window can close again.
Since it's life expectancy is significantly higher than that of it's neighbors, there is a chance that one day (in 3 to 400 years) it will tower above everything around it. An ecosystem in itself, which provides shelter and food for tons of other life forms. Until then, however, it is still a long way and not without danger.
I would love to come back here than to take a look.
Wie ein Besucher aus einer anderen Welt steht sie da, diese kleine Buche, umringt von großen und kleinen Fichten. Sie ist ein Spätaufsteher, denn obwohl es schon Mitte April ist, hat sie immer noch den Schlafanzug von Ihrer Winterruhe an.
Vor ein paar Jahren hat sie die Chance genutzt, als an dieser Stelle ein paar der Großen gefallen sind und damit mehr Licht den Waldboden erreicht hat. Nun kämpft sie sich wacker nach oben ins Kronendach bevor sich das Fenster wieder schließen kann.
Da ihre Lebenserwartung deutlich über der Ihrer Nachbarn liegt besteht die Chance, dass sie einmal (so in 3 bis 400 Jahren) alles um sich herum überragt. Ein Ökosystem für sich, welches Unmengen anderer Lebensformen Schutz und Nahrung bietet. Bis dahin, ist es allerdings noch ein weiter und nicht ungefährlicher Weg.
Ich würde dann zu gern hierher zurück kommen, um mir das einmal anzusehen.

The unique church of St. Nicholas in Horodysh was the oldest church building in Menshchyna. In 2016, the church was moved to the National Museum of Folk Architecture and Life in Pirogov.
St. Nicholas Church was built in Horodysh in 1763, it consisted of a four-sided nave, an eight-sided hall and a six-sided altar. By the way, the structure was built without a single nail.
In 2016, the church was dismantled and moved to Pirogov. Only the foundation remained in Horodysh.
In the restored church, the walls are the same as in Horodyshche, and the outside is decorated with modern materials.
Унікальний храм Святого Миколая в Городищі, був найстарішою церковною спорудою на Менщині. У 2016 році церкву перевезли до Національного музею народної архітектури та побуту, що в Пирогові.
Свято-Миколаївська церква зведена в Городищі 1763 року, складалася з чотиригранного бабинця, восьмигранної зали і шестигранного вівтаря. До речі, споруду побудовали без жодного цвяха.
2016 року храм розібрали і перевезли до Пирогова. У Городищі залишився тільки фундамент.
У відреставрованої церкви стіни стоять ті, що й в Городищі, а ззовні оздобили сучасними матеріалами.
Unique pair of historical railway bridges constructed in the late 19th century.
On 12 September 1931 a mentally challanged man named Szilveszter Matuska blew up the bridge under a train travelling to Vienna. 22 people died.
The act of Matuska was considered a Communist coup and resulted in the introduction of martial law.
The unique design of the Oval Plaza, also called the Oval Forum, cleverly connects two divergent main axes of the ancient city. The much older Sanctuary of Zeus faces northeast toward the original settlement core of Gerasa on the opposite hill (where the museum stands today). When, at the turn of the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, the new Cardo was laid out as the city's north-south connection and main street, it had to incorporate the central Sanctuary of Zeus in a representative way, which was not possible through a frontal approach because of the river valley and the rules of Roman urban planning with a rectangular street network.

Thanks for your support! ❤️
A very unique looking bird adept at natural camouflage and found in the higher elevations of the Himalayas. The male - in this picture - has a very interesting pattern and I struggled to sight it for a couple of minutes even while the others started taking shots.
This is a gamebird closely related to the Grouse bird. The birds just lay down on the forest floor and stay still making it very tough to identify them. They also forage on the forest floor eating pine nuts, shoots, seeds, pollen and other fruits that fall on the ground. I believe they are named after their calls (noted from Wikipedia).
Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
Unique social passerine with a disproportionately long tail and very short and rounded wings. Overall pallid sandy-brown. Often seen hopping on the ground with its tail cocked. Favors vegetated desert wadis and plains in the Middle East; also found near human habitation. Eats arthropods, plants, and berries. Moves around in noisy social groups; the subject of intensive studies for decades. Gives a high-pitched “tsee tsee tsee.” (eBird)
-----------
Although the description above suggests that these birds are easy to see, that was not our experience. While we did see them in groups, they were usually hidden in quite dense vegetation and were very difficult to photograph. I really like babblers as a family because they are cute and fun to watch so I was pleased to finally get a half-decent shot of this one perched briefly on a branch.

Unique experiences in amazing places .... it's been a while. I took this shot on Sydney Harbour. Four shots today with a common theme: boats on Sydney Harbour.
The least colorful part of this colorful plant is what caught my attention -- a single white flower.

Weather, Geology, and Nature paint a unique scene.
A Green Heron puts a bit of an effort in to finding its next meal.
So actually two bonuses - I was photographing the dead trees along the Creek - then a Green Heron pops in - bonus - then it stretches its neck - 2nd bonus!!
Some of the causes of the death of the trees along this section of the Creek include:
Record-Breaking Droughts: The area has faced prolonged, multi-month droughts that left sections of the creek near the outpost bone-dry for long stretches. This severely starves the cypress root systems of the consistent moisture they require to keep their canopy alive. NOTE - the droughts have been going on most every year not just this year - these trees have been dead for years that I know about.
Violent Water Fluctuations: When rains do return, the water levels bounce erratically. The creek can swing from completely dry to swelling up over seven feet deep within days. This sudden, extreme shift from drought to deep, stagnant flooding suffocates the stressed tree roots.
New Cowbone Marsh Channeling: Changes and new channels cut through the nearby Cowbone Marsh have altered how water drains away from the Palmdale section. This causes the creek's water to drop much faster than it historically did, exposing the trees to rapid hydration shock.
Excerpt from niagaraparks.com:
On August 6, 1918, a dumping scow with two men aboard broke loose from its towing tug and became lodged in the rapids of the upper Niagara River. A unique artifact of Niagara Falls history, the wreckage has remained just above the brink of the falls for over a century.
Severe weather conditions on October 31, 2019 caused the scow to shift significantly from the spot it remained in for over 100 years. Remarkably, high winds forced the scow to turn its position and shift further toward the brink of the falls. The news of the scow’s momentous move made national and international headlines with media and public interest continuing days after. While still lodged in the powerful rapids of the upper Niagara River, the future of the legendary scow remains uncertain.
