Finally acknowledging that I can grow roses - it has taken decades! These flowers are 5" in diameter.
The western honey bee or European honey bee is the most common of the 7–12 species of honey bees worldwide. The genus name Apis is Latin for "bee", and mellifera is the Latin for "honey-bearing" or "honey carrying", referring to the species' production of honey.
Like all honey bee species, the western honey bee is eusocial, creating colonies with a single fertile female (or "queen"), many normally non-reproductive females or "workers", and a small proportion of fertile males or "drones". Individual colonies can house tens of thousands of bees. Colony activities are organized by complex communication between individuals, through both pheromones and the dance language.
The western honey bee was one of the first domesticated insects, and it is the primary species maintained by beekeepers to this day for both its honey production and pollination activities. With human assistance, the western honey bee now occupies every continent except Antarctica. Western honey bees are threatened by pests and diseases, especially the Varroa mite and colony collapse disorder. There are indications that the species is rare, if not extinct in the wild in Europe and as of 2019, the western honey bee is listed as "Extinct" on the IUCN Red List, while also acknowledging "Data Deficient".

The Tamaracks are acknowledging the season in glorious colour now, our forests are dripping with gold. They have turned a bit later than usual - all the other trees have already dropped their leaves on the ground save for a stubborn few.
This particular Tamarack is in our backyard ... we transplanted it about 10 years ago and it is thriving in its new location. My American friends may know the tree by another name - the Eastern or Black Larch.

Everglades Snail Kites are a highly endangered bird in Florida! They are now referred to as Snail Kites and get their name for the fact that they feed almost exclusively on Apple Snails! They are a victim of poor water management, including water quality, high water levels, extremely low water levels. The water that is of extremely poor quality is because of recycling of farm water!
We were luck enough to see these Snail Kites mating on one of our trips to STA 5 in the wonderful early morning light!! As always thanks for looking and we will see you on Thursday!!

Matthew 28:5-7
And the angel answered and said to the women, Fear not you: for I know that you seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there shall you see him: see, I have told you.
Is It So Important?
Is it really so important
just to know that Jesus died,
Does it really make a difference knowing
He was crucified?
Indeed, it was for all my sin
He hung upon a tree,
So it really is important -
through believing, I am free.
Free from all my sin and shame, my
conscience cleansed from guilt,
You too may know this blessing,
through believing if you wilt.
Is it so important then to know that Jesus rose?
That the tomb was empty, mocking
all the efforts of His foes.
Yes! It proves his power,
over sin and death and grave.
By His glorious resurrection,
we know He came to save.
His disciples who had seen Him die,
were frightened and were sad;
Until the day of resurrection -
His appearing made them glad.
He ascended to his Father,
there His precious blood to plead,
For those who came believing,
acknowledging their need,
He has sent his Holy Spirit
(Guide and Comforter is He)
He will teach me of my Saviour,
who will come again for me.
Then - with all who love Him,
we shall meet Him in the air.
He will take us to his Father's house,
to praise Him ever there.

Understanding and acknowledging its existence is the pathway to Light
Remaining in Ignorance enables it
It is dark, it is ugly – it is vile
It is the devil’s playground
It is seductive
Only through shining a light on its existence . . .
Can humanity and our earth heal
Humanity is on the precipice
Let’s pray - Amen
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
–Isaiah 5:20
A PRAYER TO DEFEAT THE WORK OF SATAN
O Divine Eternal Father, in union with your Divine Son and the Holy Spirit, and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg You to destroy the Power of your greatest enemy – the evil spirits. Cast them into the deepest recesses of hell and chain them there forever!
Take possession of your Kingdom which You have created and which is rightfully yours. Heavenly Father, give us the reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I repeat this prayer out of pure love for You with every beat of my heart and with every breath I take.
Amen.

Being careful with each other means we actively acknowledge that no two human beings have had the same life experiences or have experienced life the same way. We are the sum total of millions of moments and cell changes and just thinking about the chances that you'll meet someone you can connect with on a deeper level should feel miraculous.
But humans also become careless with each other, even in long term relationships. Humans ignore each other or assume things about each other easily. Don't be careless. Remember, you can never truly know what another person feels or thinks without opening your heart and making both time and space.
In the last few minutes of your life, it's very unlikely you'll be thinking about an amazing tweet or Instagram post. I hope each one of you is remembering what it felt like to be caressed and loved and how it felt to show this tenderness towards others in return.

For the Month of January, we wanted to acknowledge these two wonderful creatures that are Hopey and Beanie. These two have been with us since the very beginning, constantly around for rp, reaching out to new players, welcoming everyone, making sure noone felt cast aside or ignored. They help out wherever possible, give input and advice when needed, and try their best to constantly be active in both our discord and inworld. Both of you are so appreciated, I am so happy i've gotten to know you both better, and I'm not surprised in the slightest that you both were chosen as this month's roleplayers of the month!
But the princess had not yet appeared..... At last she came. Then the little mermaid, who was very anxious to see whether she was really beautiful, was obliged to acknowledge that she had never seen a more perfect vision of beauty.

American Bitterns love swampy marshes. They will use their brown lined coloration to blend in with the different colors of reeds found in marshes they hunt from. They feed on any small critter, fish, snakes, frogs and even small birds. In Florida they are winter residents only and it is a treat so see one in the marsh feeding. Getting one in flight is a rare treat!!

Wilton Windmill, Wiltshire after sunset
I try to acknowledge each 50 increase in followers so having now just reached the 300 mark I thought I'd post this one. It's also of Wilton Windmill after sun set taken as I approached it before taking the star trails shot. I hadn't taken either of my telephoto lenses so had to shoot this on my 24-105mm using the 1.6 crop function. It's then been heavily cropped and enlarged using the ON1 Resize AI module to give what I think is a reasonable image given how much it's cropped. I loved the orange hue in the sky which made me pull over. I'm intrigued by what looks to be lighting on the windmill. It's not something I've added and I noticed a purple hue when shooting. When I got to the windmill there was no lighting on it but maybe they turn it off a little after sunset. I'll have to try to find out next visit.
To the 302 people who have chosen so far chosen to follow me on my journey as a Tog a sincere 'Thank You'. I hope you continue to find at least some of my photos worthy of your time viewing and commenting.
Thanks again. Steve.
