Siberian Chiffchaff - Phylloscopus Collybita Tiristis
One of Several Overwintering Chiffies, a mixture of Common and Siberian
Siberian Chiffchaff - Phylloscopus (collybita) tristis
Siberian chiffchaff (Phylloscopus (collybita) tristis) is a leaf-warbler which is usually considered a subspecies of the common chiffchaff, but may be a species in its own right.
Siberian chiffchaff breeds in Siberia east of the Pechora River and winters in the lower Himalayas.
It is also regularly recorded in western Europe in winter, and it is likely that the numbers involved have been underestimated due to uncertainties over identification criteria, lack of good data and recording policies (Sweden and Finland only accept trapped birds).
Because of their unfamiliar appearance, British records in the 1950s and 1960s were originally thought to be greenish warblers, and accepted as such by BBRC, the national rarities committee, until the records were reviewed in the 1980s.

Honesty
.....the ONLY policy!!
Honesty (Lunaria) - in my garden and in my heart. With the latter, unlike the former, it doesn't just appear in spring, there are no stages, no tweaking, no compromises and no exceptions, it is a guiding Light, Take it or leave it.
In the times of inversion and great deceit in which we live, a world where lies are the accepted norm, from the very top down and throughout all media, then speaking the truth is considered a subversive act ..... or at least it soon will be.
It is an interesting contemplation that honesty and truth are not necessarily synonymous. Truth by definition is honest, but without honesty that which is true can be difficult to discern.
This flower also has lovely papery white seed pods that the sun shines through and illuminates in autumn.

The cloister
Due to the nature of the Mont Saint Michel and the way that the abbey has needed to be constructed, the cloister is on top of the rest of the abbey buildings and not at the centre of the complex. Despite this, the cloister has maintained the form and functions of other cloisters found in all other monasteries with just a few subtle differences which set it apart, turning it into a symbolic representation of an ideal monastic life. Its function was purely spiritual: to bring the monks to meditate.
Three arches of the cloister are opened to the sea or to the outside. Those openings were the entryway to the chapter house that was never built. The columns, arranged in quincunx, were originally made of limestone from England but were later restored using puddingstone from Lucerne.
The cloister has in the middle a medieval garden recreated in 1966 by brother Bruno de Senneville, a Benedict monk. The center is made of box tree surrounded by 13 Damascus roses. The squares of medicinal plants, aromatic herbs and flowers symbolize the daily needs of Middle age monks. In the middle of the box trees were monsters to remind that in the middle of any marvel evil could still be there.

The trees are populus x canescens. A cross between populus alba and populus tremula. The english name is Grey poplar. (In Dutch they are called 'grauwe abeel').
The flowers are rapeseed, but last time I used that word, the Americans got very mad at me. In North America: canola.

This might look like a piece of art, but it isn't. In fact it is the pier for the ferry from Vlieland to Texel, both Waddenislands.
The small ferry only runs from the end of april till the end of september.
In the wintertime the pier is apparently partly dismantled.
To be honest, I don't know if the tide is extra low now, but the pier looks like it stands in the middle of the sand plain !
Probably made from driftwood.

We had bright sunshine on this day, which seemed ideal to capture this fun metal spring. I like tiny springs. The Laowa 2:1 macro lens needs much light.
Our state governor has called for a mask mandate, but hospitals here continue to accept Covid patients from other states where masks and other cautionary measures are not required. Back to macro and avoiding the news.

Introduction
Gospel Hymn “Those Who Don’t Accept the Truth Aren’t Fit for Salvation”
I
In hearing truth and word of life,
you may think only one word aligns
out of thousands of these words
with your thoughts and with the Bible, the Bible.
Seek in that 10,000th of words.
God advises humbleness,
to not be over-confident, to not exalt yourself.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?
II
Holding such meager reverence for God
will gain you greater light, greater light.
If you vet and ponder these words,
you’ll see if it’s truth, if it’s life, if it’s life.
Don’t blindly condemn God’s words
’cause of false Christs in the last days.
Do not blaspheme Holy Spirit
’cause you fear being led astray.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?
III
After much seeking and studying,
if you still think these words are not
the truth, the way, or God’s expressions,
you’ll be punished, your blessing’s lost, lost.
Aren’t you unfit for God’s salvation
if you can’t accept truth clearly spoken?
Aren’t you one who lacks the fortune
to return before God at His throne,
to return before God at His throne?

For today's get away, a visit to Silverton, a town of around 50 people in the far west of New South Wales. The first time I visited Silverton this street was filled with double parked tourist coaches; my photo was a disaster. The next time I made it my business to be there before the coaches arrived, and even before the hotel opened.
In 1875, two men drilling a well south of the town site hit a lode of silver. Miners flooded in and Silverton was born. By 1890 the town had 3,000 inhabitants, but the high grade ore was soon depleted, and the population drifted away. Most people moved to nearby Broken Hill where an even richer silver-lead-zinc ore body was discovered.
There is a lot more to Silverton than this iconic street. There is a community of artists, mostly attracted by the colour of the country and the vibrant light. There are museums, historic buildings, ruins of houses and a church, several restaurants and some friendly donkeys who will accept handouts from anybody willing to feed them.
The tourist coaches bring visitors to have a beer at the iconic pub, it's been in quite a few movies and commercials, and then turn them loose to buy souvenirs and food from the local businesses.
While not many of us suffer from multiple personality disorder life never is only in black or white and people very rarely have only good or bad traits of character which is why we should always try to accept the people we love for who they really are and not try to convert them into something they are not.
If flowers had personalities, how would you describe how they feel? For some reason this one seems kind of "accepting". Like here I am, a weed by the side of the road, but I'm happy and that's enough for me I accept my lot in life.
Speaking of lots, did you know Mariah Carey's hubby gave her title deeds for a lot of land as a present last Christmas? When she opened it she said ...... I don't want a lot for Christmas ...

The common sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is a species of large annual forb of the daisy family Asteraceae. The common sunflower is harvested for its edible oily seeds which are used in the production of cooking oil.
The Helianthus annuus has a variety of purposes e.g. food for livestock, bird food, and planted in domestic gardens for aesthetics. The Helianthus annuus is known for its multiple flower heads, whereas the domestic sunflower often possesses a single large flower head atop an unbranched stem.
In the binomial name Helianthus annuus, the genus name is derived from the Greek ἥλιος : hḗlios 'sun' and ἄνθος : ánthos 'flower'. The species name annuus means 'annual' in Latin.
Common sunflower was one of several plants cultivated by Native Americans in prehistoric North America as part of the Eastern Agricultural Complex. Although it was commonly accepted that the sunflower was first domesticated in what is now the southeastern US, roughly 5,000 years ago, there is evidence that it was first domesticated in Mexico around 2600 BCE. These crops were found in Tabasco, Mexico, at the San Andres dig site.
The earliest known examples in the US of a fully domesticated sunflower have been found in Tennessee, and date to around 2300 BCE. Other very early examples come from rockshelter sites in Eastern Kentucky. Many indigenous American peoples used the sunflower as the symbol of their solar deity, including the Aztecs and the Otomi of Mexico and the Incas in South America.
In 1510, early Spanish explorers encountered the sunflower in the Americas and carried its seeds back to Europe. Of the four plants known to have been domesticated in eastern North America and to have become important agricultural commodities, the sunflower is currently the most economically important.

LIFE IS....
by Mother Theresa
Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !!
Today is a green day at Color my World Daily and we are even closer to the blue day (and yes, I already have a blue picture) which is my favourite day of the week : Friday. I don’t know if my picture will be accepted for today’s theme since there is some major orange action going on. i have a green background so lets keep our fingers crossed. Lots of people ask me (I’m lying, no one asked me this ...) : and if it isn’t accepted, then what ? And my answer is : Nothing !! We will still celebrate the green color and this fake mandarin - egg. Have a great one my friends !! And remember: sometimes, the mandarins are not what they seem… (any Twin Peaks fans out there ??).
Mucho, mucho amor for you my friends !! Have a beautiful day !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !

Eleven miles of Southern Pacific's causeway over the Great Salt Lake were severely damaged by storms that passed through the region in June of 1986. Even though the route was shut down to through traffic, the causeway was teaming with rip rap and ballast trains in a fever pitch to rebuild and return the line to service.

When the spent sun throws up its rays on cloud
And goes down burning into the gulf below,
No voice in nature is heard to cry aloud
At what has happened. Birds, at least must know
It is the change to darkness in the sky.
Murmuring something quiet in her breast,
One bird begins to close a faded eye;
Or overtaken too far from his nest,
Hurrying low above the grove, some waif
Swoops just in time to his remembered tree.
At most he thinks or twitters softly, 'Safe!
Now let the night be dark for all of me.
Let the night be too dark for me to see
Into the future. Let what will be, be.'

After I finished adding the fender washer and wood extension collar, the Chickadees returned. I was unsure if they'd use the box again since I'd done the work with eggs inside, but after a careful inspection, they did.
10-12 years of waiting on a list to have a Trabant. Or 40 years of a different kind of waiting that seemed an infinity. 60 years ago, DDR’s motorized dream started to spread all over the streets. And then again, another river of Trabis, along the Berlin Wall, streaming through the Charlie Checkpoint, taking home the East German citizens after a 40 years trip into a dimension where everything was immovable.
Truth is, the Trabant broke through the proverbial wall long before it crossed into West Berlin. Also called a “spark plug with a roof”, the Trabant is a s y m b o l of a nation who knew how to go beyond. Not only was its body built of recycled materials, but it could run on whiskey, cooking oil or virtually whatever else could burn. The main problem with the engine was the smoky exhaust and the pollution it produced. A reunified Germany discovered that this smoky box-shaped car, whose rasping engine emitted noxious clouds of blue exhaust, was impossible to recycle or dispose of because the Duroplast fails to compress, incinerated gives off toxic fumes and leaches chemicals if buried. What has never been a problem for East German engineers was now a problem for German engineers. (Apparently, it can be shredded, mixed with concrete to render the chemicals inert and pressed into building bricks, though has never been accomplished on a significant scale.)
Made of nothing + lots of imagination, the Trabi disappeared in its own smoke, swallowed by progress and history. The Trabi has vanished but it’s more alive than ever, brought back to life by the fans of the cult car, rescued, restored and transformed by the worldwide enthusiasts. Cuz if in the East was cancelled, crushed and rejected, in the West was wanted, valued and accepted.

Flor de fruta - Sept 9 2020-2 - TS2 LR
Took this from my hotel balcony during the Galveston vacation.
Some of you may have noticed that I haven't posted for a while. Here's what was going on
I had tonsil cancer. They removed all my teeth and gave me 6 weeks of radiation and chemo. I almost lost my ability to talk. I couldn't swallow or taste anything. They stuck a feeding tube in my stomach and sent me home. After 3 years I still can't taste food, well a little, but I can tell if it's hot or cold. They pulled the feeding tube out and sent me home. Is that crazy or what? I asked the doctor if she was sure, she said, "you'll be fine" I wasn't. Everything I ate or drank came right out via the hole. So this week I went back and they put me under and put a clamp down my throat after doing something to widen it and clamped off the hole. My body keeps reminding me that there is a foreign object in there and it's very uncomfortable for now. I'm in a little pain which I'm taking over the counter Tylenol. I'm really glad to be rid of the tube and I'll feel much better when my body accepts the clamp. I feel like this may have been the first time the doctor ever removed a tube. She wasn't my regular doctor. The VA just picked a random doctor at a local hospital

Officially this is called a 22° halo and it is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that consists of a halo with an apparent radius of approximately 22° around the Sun or Moon.
Atmospheric 22 degree halos sometimes appear around the sun or moon when there are ice crystals in the air, usually at high altitude.

White-bellied Sea-Eagle
Scientific Name: Haliaeetus leucogaster
Description: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle has white on the head, rump and underparts and dark grey on the back and wings. In flight the black flight feathers on the wings are easily seen when the bird is viewed from below. The large, hooked bill is grey with a darker tip, and the eye is dark brown. The legs and feet are cream-white, with long black talons (claws). The sexes are similar. As in other raptors (birds of prey), Males (2.5 kg - 3.7 kg) are slightly smaller than females (2.8 kg - 4.2 kg).The wingspan is about 1.8 m - 2 m. Young Sea-Eagles are brown as juveniles than slowly become to resemble adults in a patchwork manner, acquiring the complete adult plumage by their fourth year.
Similar species: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle is the second largest raptor (bird of prey) found in Australia. The largest is the Wedge-tailed Eagle, Aquila audax, which stands up to 1 m tall. The Wedge-tailed Eagle is mostly brown, with a wedge-shaped tail. Young Sea-Eagles may be confused with the Wedge-tailed Eagle, but differ in having a paler head and tail and more steeply upswept wings when soaring.
Distribution: White-bellied Sea-Eagles are a common sight in coastal and near coastal areas of Australia. In addition to Australia, the species is found in New Guinea, Indonesia, China, south-east Asia and India
Habitat: White-bellied Sea-Eagles are normally seen perched high in a tree, or soaring over waterways and adjacent land. Birds form permanent pairs that inhabit territories throughout the year.
Feeding: The White-bellied Sea-Eagle feeds mainly off aquatic animals, such as fish, turtles and sea snakes, but it takes birds and mammals as well. It is a skilled hunter, and will attack prey up to the size of a swan. Sea-Eagles also feed on carrion (dead prey) such as sheep and fish along the waterline. They harass smaller birds, forcing them to drop any food that they are carrying. Sea-Eagles feed alone, in pairs or in family groups.
Breeding: White-bellied Sea-Eagles build a large stick nest, which is used for many seasons in succession. The nest can be located in a tree up to 30m above the ground, but may also be placed on the ground or on rocks, where there are no suitable trees. At the start of the breeding season, the nest is lined with fresh green leaves and twigs. The female carries out most of the incubation of the white eggs, but the male performs this duty from time to time.
Calls: Distinctive loud "goose-like" honking call, which is heard particularly during the breeding season.
Minimum Size: 75cm
Maximum Size: 85cm
Average size: 80cm
Average weight: 2 630g
Breeding season: May to October
Clutch Size: Two.
