Close your eyes
Let me tell you all the reasons why
Think you're one of a kind.
Here's to you
The one that always pulls us through
Always do what you got to do
You're one of a kind
Thank god you're mine.
You're an angel dressed in armor
You're the fair in every fight
You're my life and my safe harbor
Where the sun sets every night
And if my love is blind
I don't want to see the light.
It's your beauty that betrays you
Your smile gives you away.
Cause you're made of strength and mercy
And my soul is yours to save
I know this much is true
When my world was dark and blue
I know the only one who rescued me was you
Close your eyes
Let me tell you all the reasons why
You're never going to have to cry
Because you're one of a kind
Yeah, here's to you
The one that always pulls us through
You always do what you got to do, baby
Because you're one of a kind.
When your love pours down on me
I know I'm finally free
So I tell you gratefully
Every single beat in my heart is yours to keep
So close your eyes
Let me tell you all the reasons why, babe
You're never going to have to cry, baby
Because you're one of a kind
Yeah, here's to you
You're the one that always pulls us through
You always do what you got to do, babe
'Cause you're one of a kind.
You're the reason why I'm breathing.
With a little look my way
You're the reason that I'm feeling
It's finally safe to stay!
(Lyrics from Michael Bublé - Close Your Eyes)
It’s been a while since I shared a photo from my Sabi Sands safari, so thought why not post one of its most magnificent residents — the leopard.
This young cub was perched high in a tree, curiously watching us as we watched him. I can only imagine what he thought of the rapid-fire click of all those camera shutters! The more sensible among us (if I can ever be called that 😉) had our cameras set to silent mode.
It was fascinating watching his mother teach him the essentials of leopard life — how to wrestle, eat, and nap — all safely from the branches above, far from hyenas, photographers, and other distractions. I have such wonderful memories of these extraordinary animals. Nature at her finest.
Today's fun fact: That lovely smell of freshly cut grass? It's actually the grass releasing distress signals! The scent comes from green leaf volatiles — compounds plants emit when damaged, to warn nearby plants, deter grazers, & attract helpful insects.
So maybe I’m not lazy after all — I’m just being considerate by not mowing too often 😉
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend. Thanks for taking a look, I really appreciate your comments and support.
We're don't know which side of our families of origin took such loving care of this pocket watch through the years. The inscribed date on the inner cover reads April 1920.
I experimented with apertures, extension tubes, and focal points, and had a fine time while it rained. I had intended to add it to Macro Mondays last Monday until I noticed that I had entered an older macro two years ago.
Thanks for looking, and for your faves ;)

Watch Coons 2 of the 3 babies sitting up very high in this oak tree, casually watching me, found in North Carolina.
Collared Sparrowhawk (Accipiter cirrocephalus)
This one was watching the small birds trying to decide which would make a tasty meal. Seen in the Heathdale - Glen Orden Wetlands.
From high on it's perch, this Red-tailed Hawk was watching the Sandhill Cranes fly about. I've never known a Red-tail to try and take a Sandhill, but there's always a first time for everything.

Macro Mondays .On my 21st birthday the watch given to me from my Mum and Dad. 54 Years later still in fine working order.
Small forest of hardwoods keeps watch over Seminary Fen Scientific & Natural Area in Chanhassen/Chaska, Minnesota.
This was originally the site of the Mudcura Sanitarium, a world-famous spa that was opened in 1909 and operated until 1951.
Per MNOpedia, in 1951, the sanitarium was sold to the Black Franciscans, Order of Friars Minor Conventual, from Louisville, Kentucky. They named it Assumption Seminary and the site became linked with both the Colleges of St. Catherine and St. Thomas in St. Paul.
The Seminary remained in operation until 1970 and then sat vacant for many years, becoming a popular hangout for teens and other thrill seekers. The main building burned and was demolished in 1997.
The land is now home to the Minnesota DNR Seminary Fen Scientific & Natural Area that protects the rare calcareous fen that is now the star of the show here.

for those of you who have never gone to Sardinia, you won't miss this feeling, this need of watching. that turquoise sea water, the surprising coast line and all those watching towers looking out for you. so much to see, so must to watch.
