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!
Spindle (so named because the wood was used to make spindles) makes a fantastic hedge plant (or small tree in a hedge) because of its unique fall color scheme. In autumn we can enjoy the opening flaps of the fruits, from which orange seeds emerge. The berries are poisonous but the birds love them!!
Uniqueness seperates from others!.

Thank you for your friendly visits and valued comments.
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)

Nuthatches are somewhat woodpecker-like, but more agile, perching up on their feet with bodies and tails held well clear. They can descend head-first and hang upside down beneath twigs and branches.
There is one UK species of nuthatch, with a second in Europe and a few elsewhere. The UK species is a woodland bird, always associated with trees or tall bushes. It has the unique habit in the UK of plastering mud around the entrance to its nest hole.
Unique, mystic topography and sacred to the aborigines. is a large sandstone rock formation in the southern part of the Northern Territory in central Australia. It lies 335 km south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs. Uluru is sacred to the Pitjantjatjara Anangu, the Aboriginal people of the area. The area around the formation is home to an abundance of springs, waterholes, rock caves and ancient paintings. Uluru is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Uluru and Kata Tjuta, also known as the Olgas, are the two major features of the Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park. 15453
On my way to Kamloops, I had thoughts in mind for a photo of the hoodoos prior to sundown. However, an unintended delay stretched my departure and I missed my planned arrival. To that end it is always a good idea to have an alternate destination. There are so many opportunities out there that the one in mind will wait for another day.
This place was my alternate destination and has often rendered terrific results. However, since "you never know till you go", meant observing this rather unique event. The red line in the sky was occurring at the sunset hour and reflecting off the Thompson River. A short walk and I was in an ideal spot to catch this isolated event.
Xochimilco, Mexico 2015
[Eng. /Esp.]
The area of Xochimilco, located SE Mexico City, is what remains of the old wetlands, fed by fresh water springs, which covered the whole basin in the Pre-Hispanic period. Partially filled to create chinampas (artificial islands), it constitutes a canal system that was the main transportation venue until the 20th Century. Encompasing unique endangered plants and fauna, the whole area is seriously threatened since pumping of the underground water rocketed along the past century. It was delclared World Heritage Site in 1987, as an attempt to protect the area. It's a very popular place, not only for foreing visitors: locals, including Mexico City's entire families, do often go there to celebrate events, hiring one or more big trajineras along wiht Mariachis, to have lunch together.
El área de Xochimilco se sitúa al SE de la Ciudad de Maexico, es lo que queda del antiguo humedal, alimentado por manantiales de agua dulce, que cubría toda la cuenca en el Periodo Pre-Hispánico. Parcialmente rellenado para crear chinampas (islas artificiales), constituye un sistemas de canales que fue el principal medio de transporte hasta el siglo 20. Alberga ejemplares únicos de fauna y vegetación, y todo el área está seriamente amenazada desde que el bombeo de agua de los acuífieros se disparó a lo largo del pasado siglo. Fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad en 1987, en un intento de proteger la zona. Es un sitio muy popular, no solo para los extranjeros: los habitantes de la zona, incluyendo familias enteras de la Ciudad de Mexico, acuden allí a menudo para celebrar eventos, alquilando una o varias grandes trajineras junto a algún Mariachi, paa comer juntos.
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.

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.
I have seen sunflower fields many times - but rarely such a jungle. The perspective was really interesting - it felt like going downhill and then up a slope. This was already in the shade and the foreground was illuminated by the sun - the whole thing with a 200 mm focal length and a blurred foreground ... that's it ...
Bayerischer Sonnenblumen-Dschungel
Ich habe schon oft Sonnenblumenfelder gesehen - doch selten solch einen Dschungel. Die Perspektive war echt interessant - gefühlt ging es erst bergab und dann einen Hang hinauf. Dieser lag bereits im Schatten und der Vordergrund wurde von der Sonne angestrahlt - das Ganze mit einer 200 mm Brennweite und einem unscharfen Vordergrund...das war's...

A uniquely-patterned, medium-sized hummingbird, the adult male White-necked Jacobin has a blue head and chest, a sharply contrasting white nape, a green back and blackish wings. The White-necked Jacobin can be found in a variety of habitats from humid forest canopies, to tall second growth forests, and even in coffee and cacao plantations. White-necked Jacobin can be found within its broad range feeding on nectar and small arthropods; occasionally, many will concentrate at flowering trees where they are aggressive and even territorial to one another. Although uncommon throughout most of its large range, the White-necked Jacobin's population is believed to be stable, and consequently has not been placed on any threatened species lists. Here you can see a juvenile (left) and an adult (right).
Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc. Very much appreciated!

The least colorful part of this colorful plant is what caught my attention -- a single white flower.
fledgling robin getting the first flight wrong by flying in to my apple tree label Don't worry it did get it right after.
“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.”

Not really an island, this unique structure sits atop the St.Petersburg Pier (its official name is "St.Pete Pier").
The Pier is a recreational tourist attraction that extends from downtown St. Petersburg into Tampa Bay. The building in the photo, complete with palm tree landscaping, houses three restaurants. It's a nice walk out, but there is also a tram that can carry weary tourists. There are also vendors and attractions on the pier. The picture shows only the East end of the pier.

Position: The unique 12th-century Rocca Scaligero Castle was built on the remains of ancient Roman fortress and is an unmissable landmark of the spa resort of Sirmione on the Lago di Garda. The whole fortress is surrounded by water, which in ancient times was crucial in defending the city. It is connected to the mainland by a drawbridge. The fortress also included a fortified port. Sirmione is a comune and town located in the province of Brescia in the region of Lombardy, Italy.
A unique dimension that the beam of sunlight bought into the Canyon, a smoky soul. It is the falling sand that is shimmering in the sunlight.
One of my most favorite of places on earth! This one is from he upper Antelope Canyon.
I took the photography tour where you get more time and get to take a tripod with you. The canyon gets this beam of straight sunlight for a few minutes that makes the canyon a magical place to be at!
I can spend the whole week walking and taking pictures here (only if I don't have to earn a living!). Every curve gives you a unique perspective and every turn is an entirely different world!
