The Sydney Opera House. Vivid back soon, I hope. Great time of the year to photograph some of Sydney's landmarks.
Taipei Botanical Garden (台北植物園), Taipei, Taiwan
During a short visit to Taiwan, I was pleasantly surprised to see this lone male at Taipei Botanical Garden. This species is rarely seen at sea level. Its natural habitat is at higher altitudes. As can be imagined, its sighting attracted hundreds of birders to the Garden. It also invoked territorial aggression from another lone male of a different species, White-rumped Shama, also rarely seen and shown in the previous picture. With both birds liking the same tree, the Vivid Niltava was often chased away by the White-rumped Shama and only returned to feed when the latter was elsewhere.

During sunset, a cloud flew in in an amazing shape (a bird, a dragon, and maybe an angel ...)
A little understanding of the physics of cloud formation underscores the complexity of the atmosphere and sheds light on why predicting weather for more than a few days is such a challenge.
Six types of clouds you can see and how they can help you understand the weather.
1) Cumulus clouds - On a sunny day, rays warm the earth, which heats the air located directly above it. The heated air rises upward due to convection and forms cumulus clouds. These “good weather” clouds are like cotton wool. If you look at the sky filled with cumulus clouds, you can see that they have a flat bottom, located at the same level for all clouds. At this altitude, air rising from ground level cools down to the dew point. It usually doesn't rain from cumulus clouds, which means the weather will be good.
2) Cumulonimbus clouds.
Small cumulus clouds do not rain, but if they grow and grow in height, it is a sign that heavy rain is coming soon. This often happens in summer when morning cumulus clouds turn into cumulonimbus during the day. Cumulonimbus clouds often have a flat top. Air convection occurs inside such a cloud, and it gradually cools until it reaches the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. At this moment, it loses its buoyancy and can no longer rise higher. Instead, it spreads out to the sides, forming the characteristic anvil shape.
3) Cirrus clouds form in very high layers of the atmosphere. They are smoky because they are composed entirely of ice crystals falling in the atmosphere. When cirrus clouds are carried by winds moving at different speeds, they take on a characteristic curved shape. And only at very high altitudes or at high latitudes, cirrus clouds give out rain that reaches the ground.
4) Stratus Clouds - A low-lying, continuous cloud sheet that covers the sky. Stratus clouds are formed by slowly rising air or gentle winds that cover the cold land or sea surface with moist air. Stratus clouds are thin, therefore, despite the gloomy picture, it is unlikely to rain from them, a little drizzle at most. Stratus clouds are identical to fog, so if you've ever walked in a mountainous area on a foggy day, you've been inside a cloud.
5) Lenticular clouds. Smooth and lenticular lenticular clouds form when air is blown up and over a mountain range, and as it travels over a mountain, the air descends to its previous level. At this time, it heats up and the cloud evaporates. But it can slip further, as a result of which the air rises again and forms another lenticular cloud. This can result in a chain of clouds extending far beyond the mountain range. The interaction of wind with mountains and other surface features is one of the many details that must be taken into account in computer simulations to obtain accurate weather predictions.
6) Kelvin - Helmholtz like a breaking ocean wave. When air masses at different heights move horizontally at different speeds, their state becomes unstable. The boundary between the air masses begins to ripple and form large waves, such clouds are quite rare.
The photo was taken in the city of Konakovo. Russia. On the banks of the Volga River.
Annual Event Viviv Sydney starts from tonight (25th May)
This is from last night. They were testing the lights.
Actually testing the full operation.

Taipei Botanical Garden (台北植物園), Taipei, Taiwan
This is the same lone male shown two pictures ago, ths time with his back facing the camera. This bird is of a sub-species, Niltava vivida, that is endemic to Taiwan.

Happy Friday and weekend!
Thanks for visiting. I am very grateful for the kind comments and faves.

Buildings of the business district "Red Hills". The construction took more than ten years; as a result, a business center, concert halls, a five-star hotel appeared here.
Moscow International House of Music (building on the right) is a modern center for the performing arts, which has no analogues in Russia. This is an independent production association that organizes performances by Russian and foreign symphony orchestras, chamber ensembles, instrumental soloists, opera and ballet artists, theater, jazz, pop and folk groups.
The dome of the House of Music is crowned with an emblem in the form of a treble clef-vane 9.5 meters high; by Zurab Tsereteli. The most complicated roller mechanism allows such a heavy construction to rotate according to the principle of a weather vane. The composition is made of stainless steel; its center - key and leaves - covered with gold leaf.; V trekh zalakh kompleksa – Svetlanovskom; Kamernom i Teatral'nom – provodyatsya kontserty i spektakli; krupnyye mezhdunarodnyye forumy i tvorcheskiye vechera; prezentatsii i prazdnichnyye shou; konferentsii i korporativnyye vstrechi.; Svetlanovskiy zal (rasschitan na 1699 mest) — bol'shoy filarmonicheskiy organnyy zal MMDM; nazvannyy v chest' vydayushchegosya russkogo dirizhera Yevgeniya Svetlanova.

It is intended for concerts of classical and popular music; as well as major festivals and competitions. The hall is lined with Siberian larch; considered the best “acoustic” tree in the world.
Rapeseed fields certainly bring very vivid colour to the countryside and on an unseen level, it attracts a lot of activity in the insect, pollinator's world.
The Sydney Opera House lit up for Vivid Sydney. Vivid Sydney is a lighting display of various landmarks around Sydney for two weeks around June each year.

Stilpnia heinei -juvenile male- (Black-capped Tanager / Tangara capirotada)
Juvenile males show a kaleidoscope of colours: Yellow-green as the females and blue tones as adult males.
Black-capped Tanagers are vividly-colored tropical birds that occur in Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador and Peru. They often occur in pairs foraging in bushes and trees for insects and fruit.
It is one of the few species in the genus that shows obvious sexual dichromatism, with males primarily gray-blue in color with a distinctive black cap, and females yellow-green without a black cap.

Lighting of the Sails- the Sydney Opera House is an animated canvas of Australian Indigenous art. It is a celebration of spirituality and culture through the storylines of our land and sky. This contemporary Indigenous work is from six artists- Karla Dickens, Djon Mundine, Gabriella Possum Nungurrayi, Reko Rennie, Donny Woolagoodja and the late Gulumbu Yunupingu.
