Reading a book is more than understanding words. Reading a book means fantasy, reading a book conjures up a world in your mind, lets you see things that only you can experience. A book takes you into a world of magic, adventure, great operas and brave heroes - well, unless of course you're reading a cookbook, then you'll get just hungry maybee♥

You'll remember me when the west wind moves

It has been a very long day for me today. I'm pretty mentally exhausted, don't really have time to think about what to post for the day so I just dug up this simple leaf capture from my archives, one for my red and green "state of mind". It's not really a very old photo, not even two weeks old. No verses coming out of my brain tonight. Instead, here's a favorite song from Sarah Mclachlan (hope you'll take the time to listen), ANSWER. Link will open in a new window.
Don't go far off, not even for a day, because —
because — I don't know how to say it: a day is long
and I will be waiting for you, as in an empty station
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don't leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
the smoke that roams looking for a home will drift
into me, choking my lost heart.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Don't leave me for a second, my dearest,
because in that moment you'll have gone so far
I'll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying?

"RIDING THE FLAME" - WESTERN GREEN LIZARD (LACERTA BILINEATA) | ADULT FEMALE ON TRUMPET VINE | 09-2023 | TICINO | SWITZERLAND
In case you're interested, you'll find the whole "Flame Rider" series and the other photos taken on that day here: www.lacerta-bilineata.com/post/western-green-lizards-in-t...
More Ticino/Tessin Wildlife Photos (all taken in my garden in Monteggio/Ti, Switzerland): de.lacerta-bilineata.com/westliche-smaragdeidechse-lacert...
And my most recent BIRD VIDEO (a goldfinch invasion in my garden) you can find here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvVNEYPfFtU
THE STORY BEHIND THE PHOTO:
The shot above was for once NOT taken in my garden, but instead I captured this "lady of the flame" last September in the Maggia Valley - named after the river Maggia - which also lies in Ticino, but approximately at an hour's drive from my house in Monteggio.
I had been invited there by my good friend Evie who spends a lot of time in that gorgeous natural paradise, completely off grid in a little "rustico" (that's what the ancient, traditionally built stone houses are called in Ticino). She and I have known each other since we were toddlers, and she's as much a nature nerd and photo nut as I am, so I was very much looking forward to a day of exploring this beautiful valley with a fellow wildlife paparazzo.
Around 9am I got off the bus and strolled head-on into the marvelous wilderness where my friend had instructed me to. Evie had offered to come get me at the bus stop, but I assured her it would be a piece of cake for me to find the place on my own; the rustico was only approximately 20 minutes away in the forest, and her directions sounded easy enough. But she insisted I call her once I reached a small clearing in the woods so she could come and fetch me, because there was supposed to be a hidden shortcut from there to the house.
Like in most men - and I'm sure ALL women know this about us - there lives a stubborn little boy inside my head that fancies himself the ultimate survival expert and never wants to rely on anybody else's directions (I call that fella "Jungle-Mike" 😉 ), so I had memorized a satellite image of the area beforehand, and I now felt confident enough to leave the trail and head straight for the river through the woods - and instantly got lost. 😂
But of course, Mr Survival Expert was too absorbed with his (mis-) adventure in the underbrush to realize he was heading in the wrong direction: an army of brambles was more than happy to welcome such a worthy adversary as was good ole' "Jungle Mike" and drew first blood immediately, but I fought back bravely and heroically escaped their thorny clutches to make it - though not exactly unscathed - to the river bank.😅
So far, my trip was a complete success: I had found the Maggia river, which had been my goal after all (as I said: "piece of cake" 😁 ). Now all I needed to do was get across. If I had been smart enough to follow Evie's instructions, I would have come to a bridge (the satellite photo had corroborated that), but in my valiant struggle against the undergrowth I had ended up much further downstream than intended, and there was no bridge to be seen.
A decision had to be made. Calling my friend and simply asking for new directions never crossed my mind ("Jungle-Mike don't phone!"), nor did I want to waste more time by walking upstream in search of the bridge. Instead I took off my shoes and waded into the shallow looking river, praying the current wouldn't get too strong and my expensive camera gear wouldn't take a plunge.
Thankfully, this was a stretch of the Maggia where the water never got more than knee-deep, but the ground was very uneven as well as slippery, and the current DID get pretty strong. I wobbled through the stream like a drunk duck, desperately trying not to slip on the algae-covered stones or lose my balance. It must have looked very comical to any outside observers (and "Jungle-Mike" was very pleased there were none of those around 😉 ).
I made it to the other side without sacrificing any of my belongings to the river gods, but my feet were now wet, and I had to continue my journey into the woods barefoot for a while. This meant I had to concentrate hard and scan the ground before every step, because this was chestnut country, and let me tell you: collecting chestnut spines with one's soft, rosy feet is about as much fun as stepping on a sea urchin!
It couldn't have been more than 20 minutes since I had left the bus stop, but I was already sweating profusely from sheer exertion, when I finally found the meadow where I was supposed to call my friend (it had to be the right clearing, since I was sure I hadn't seen any other open spaces in the forest on the satellite photo).
I dialed her number, and she answered immediately. 3 Minutes later Evie materialized out of the trees like a kind forest spirit that had come to rescue me. Of course I did my best not to show how relieved I was to see her. "Was it easy to find?" she asked as we walked up the trail to the house. "Piece of cake," Jungle-Mike answered. 😜
The rustico stood in the midst of little meadow, surrounded by gorgeous old oak and chestnut trees. It had a few small solar panels on the roof that powered some lights and a tiny fridge, but heating and cooking were only possible with firewood, and the water came from a nearby spring. A shower or bathtub wasn't needed: the Maggia river provided for that.
After a hard-earned cup of coffee - "Savor it," Evie said, "I had to work for half an hour for that, and it will take me another half hour to make another one" - we finally got going. Evie led the way; I tried my best to keep up with her pace as she gracefully darted through the woods, until she stopped when we arrived at a narrow hiking trail. "This is the best part," she proclaimed, "I always wanted to show you this: there's lots of your favorite lizards along this stretch of the trail."
The path she had chosen led us through the magnificent wilderness of the Maggia valley, but every once in a while a derelict rustico or parts of a stone wall of some ancient enclosure for goats or sheep would appear on either side of the way - remnants of a long gone era when all of this was farm land. And my friend was right: my favorite reptiles - the western green lizards (Lacerta bilineata) - apparently thrived here!
Every couple of meters we were greeted by yet another impressive green fella basking on the warm stones (the sky was overcast, but we could feel the heat of the still powerful September sun coming through the clouds), and every single one of the reptiles would be announced in advance by Evie. "Watch out, there's usually a big one right there," she would say, or: "Slow down a bit, the one that normally sits on that wall behind the next curve is a little shy."
Western green lizards are very territorial and can often be found in the same spots, and so Evie had begun to give some of them names as if they were her pets: "The fella we're about to see on that rock over there has a partially regrown tail; I call him 'Stummeli'," (which means "stunted" in Swiss German); "He never takes flight, and you can practically touch him."
I was indeed struck by the fact that many of the lizards here showed little to no fear when we approached them - which was in stark contrast to the Lacerta bilineata population in my own village - and my camera got so busy that I feared the shutter would start to glow and throw sparks! 😊
It was an incredible trip, and I can honestly say without exaggeration that this part of the Maggia Valley was one of the most beautiful places I'd ever visited. And never have I seen so many western green lizards within such a short a period of time as I did during that hike! Mating season was over, so the males lacked the intense blue facial colors they usually display from April to June, but they still looked absolutely amazing.
The highlight of our little expedition - at least for me since Evie had already been here countless times - was when we got to a cluster of abandoned rustici in the midst of the forest. It might have been a village once; now the crumbling stone buildings were overgrown by grapevines that had escaped an ancient vineyard, and awkwardly bent apple trees that were covered in lichen and moss grew between the sunken ruins.
These veterans were probably the last descendants of the trees that once grew in a long since disappeared orchard; there was also a huge fig tree growing out of a collapsed house - and it was carrying plenty of fruit, which didn't go unnoticed by my now growling stomach.
Evie and I quickly descended upon the figs - which were sweet and juicy - and I couldn't help but think of "Hansel and Gretel" feasting on the wicked witch's gingerbread house. The whole scenery indeed looked like something straight out of a fairy tale - or a fantasy novel like 'Lord of the Rings'. And it was here, in this magical place, that I captured the "flame rider" you can see in the photo above.
The hungry lizard lady was looking for six-legged treats in a gorgeous trumpet vine (Campsis radicans) that grew over the roof of one of the ruins; the image above shows her right before she dove into the flaming orange flower to get at whatever bug she had spotted inside. She buried her head completely in the flower, which I thought looked very funny (if you're interested, you can find those photos here: www.lacerta-bilineata.com/post/western-green-lizards-in-t... )
What else is there to say (unsurprisingly, this anecdote has once again gotten much longer than I intended 😄 ); I guess you can tell by my rambling that, my initial "detour" not withstanding, visiting my friend in the Maggia Valley was a fantastic experience. I certainly hope to return there soon (and who knows, maybe next time I'll even manage to leave "Jungle-Mike" at home 😉 ).
Thanks for looking (and READING if you made it to this point 😁); many greetings from Ticino, and have a wonderful Sunday and great start into the new week everyone! 🙏 😊 ❤
As always, let me know what you think in the comments (I hope you'll forgive me for breaking my own rule and - for once - posting a shot that I didn't take in my garden 😄).

Like shelter from the storm
A fireplace that keeps me warm
Like a match can spark a flame
You start a fire inside my veins
Somehow with you, I don't feel alone,
You'll always be my home, my heart
I'll be with you wherever you are
I feel you with me when we're worlds apart
You'll always be my home
You accept me for my flaws
You give me everything and more
Even in my darkest nights
I know you'rе there right by my side
Somеhow with you, I don't feel alone,
You'll always be my home, my heart
I'll be with you wherever you are
My home, my heart
I feel you with me when we're worlds apart
Bring me home, close to you
I miss you arms wrapped around me
Bring me home, close to you, I miss your arms
You'll always be my home, my heart
I'll be with you wherever you are
My home, my heart
I feel you with me when we're worlds apart
Spring has also started in the beautiful Polenz Valley in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. Here it always happens when the first spring snowflakes start to bloom.
And even if they are still found only a few at the moment or in small groups, you can feel spring.
In addition, when I was moving close to the ground for this photo, the first bees flew across my path.
And as background music there was the gentle rustling of the river Polenz and the singing of quite a few birds.
For me, this was a very successful and recommendable trip. But if you want to experience the highlight, the snowflake meadow in all its glory, then it's better to wait a few more days.
But you'll have to be prepared for a lot more visitors than the few I encountered today.
Auch im schönen Polenztal im Elbsandsteingebirge hat der Frühling denn Startschuß gegeben. Hier erfolgt das immer dann, wenn die ersten Märzenbecher beginnen zu blühen.
Und auch, wenn sie im Moment noch eher vereinzelt oder in kleinen Gruppen zu finden sind, man kann den Frühling fühlen.
Außerdem sind mir als, ich für dieses Foto in Bodennähe unterwegs war, auch die ersten Bienen über den Weg geflogen.
Und als Hintergrundmusik gab es das sanfte Rauschen der Polenz und den Gesang ziemlich vieler Vögel.
Das war für mich ein seh gelungender und empfehlenswerter Ausflug. Doch wenn Ihr das Highlight, die Märzenbecherwiese in ihrer ganzen Pracht erleben wollt, dann wartet besser noch ein paar Tage.
Allerdings müsst Ihr Euch dann auf deutlich mehr Besucher einstellen als die paar, die mir heute begegnet sind.
more of this on my website at: www.shoot-to-catch.de
From another year, but this is what it looks like out there today. I'm getting too old to sit out with the birds during winter anymore. I shudder at the thought. You'll see when you get old. lolol. 💚💚
. I'm sad ..
* I'm afraid that :
If you'll see me all the time , you'll get sick of me
If you'll talk to me all the time , you'll run out things to say
If we'll do same things all the time , you'll get bored of me
If I'm too nice to you , you'll take advantage of me
If i'm too mean to you , you'll drift away from me
If someone else get's your attention , you'll ignore me
If you'll meet somebody new , you'll leave me ..

All that joy can bring, this I swear
And all that I want from you
Is a promise you will be there

"Excellente cette série, celle-ci est sans doute ma préférée, Nuages, fumée et même montagne semblent s'échapper de cette loco intemporelle." // "Excellent series. This one is probably my favourite.

"If you look at ocean water in a clear glass, you’ll see that it’s not clear but full of tiny particles. Seawater contains dissolved salts, proteins, fats, dead algae, detergents and other pollutants. If you shake this glass of ocean water vigorously, small bubbles will form on the surface of the liquid.
Sea foam forms under similar conditions – but on a much grander scale – when storms roll in and the ocean is agitated by wind and waves. The creation of sea foam can occur often in gargantuan proportions.
Most sea foam is not harmful to humans and is often an indication of a productive ocean ecosystem. But when large harmful algal blooms decay near shore, there are potential for impacts to human health and the environment. During blooms popping sea foam bubbles are one way that algal toxins become airborne. The resulting aerosol can irritate the eyes of beach goers and poses a health risk for those with asthma or other respiratory conditions."

SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS ALONE!
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus died that death for YOU and I. The good news is there no more punishment for sin left, we were and are all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

~Every brick and every stone of the world we made
Will come undone if I
If I can feel you here with me whoa oh
In my sleep I call your name
But when I wake I need to touch your face
'Cause I
I need to feel you here with me whoa oh
You can stop the aching
'Cause you're the one I need
I will burn, I will burn for you
With fire and fury
Fire and fury
My heart hurts, my heart hurts for you
Your love burns within me
With fire and fury, whoa oh
If I freeze you are the flame
You melt my heart, I washed in your rain, I know
You'll always have the best of me, whoa oh
Destiny's got a hold on me
Guess I never knew love like love knows me
'Cause I
I need to feel you here with me
I will burn, I will burn for you
With fire and fury
Fire and fury
My heart hurts, my heart hurts for you
Your love burns within me
With fire and fury, whoa oh
Let it all fall down to dust
Can't break the two of us
We are the safe in the strength of love
You can stop the aching
'Cause you're the one I need
I will burn, I will burn for you
With fire and fury
Fire and fury
My heart hurts, my heart hurts for you
Your love burns within me
It burns, it burns, it burns, it burns
Whoa oh
Oh
Whoa oh
Oh
You're love burns within me
With fire and fury, whoa oh~
