Native to east Asia, Mandarin Ducks were brought to Britain from China in the middle of the 18th Century. Some of them escaped, or were deliberately released, from wildfowl collections during the 1930s and began breeding in the wild. Nowadays, about 3,500 pairs nest in the UK, 14% of the world’s total and the largest population outside the Far East. Like the pheasant and the Canada goose, the mandarin has been accepted, begrudgingly, as a European species, having been long regarded as an illegal immigrant.
Vagrants from Britain visited Wexford in 1971. By 1978, mandarins were breeding in the valley of the River Shimna in County Down. There have been reports of their presence elsewhere in recent years, mainly in the east of the country (The Irish Examiner, 21st May 2012).
This male was a regular visitor to the National Botanic Gardens in Glasnevin over the 2019/2020 winter. Such a stunning duck.

Jesse out driving in his Amazon in Handen earlier today. The old Volvo has changed a bit since I last photographed it.
I visited the Amazon office London as I am doing some consultancy work for a company. I loved this statue at the front entrance and the person shows the relative size of the artwork. The statue is called In Anticipation by James Burke. It is inspired by the limitless possibilities of our next thought, move and action.

Woke up early to catch a sunrise, but got this fog instead.

The third installment in mine and Bartu's Amazon collaboration: Destruction.
There are many threats to the Amazon forest, one of them being small illegal gold mines that both destroys and poisons the forest by ruining the soil and dumping mercury waste. This build portrays such a mine.
This is a more somber theme than the previous two, as is the intention. Colors are more muted, with more olive and dark green. The dark tan ground is mostly exposed with vegetation struggling.
The whole setup is very makeshift and temporary, and nothing here is made to last. People are here to get what they can and then move on, giving no care to what state they leave things in. I tried to portray this by making things rather messy and cluttered.
One of the things I was pondering for a while was the inclusion of minifigs in the build. I've had many interesting conversations on whether it would be wise to include them or not. It was important for the build that the issues were not trivialized by making it childish or less natural. With a medium that is often seen as a toy this can sometimes be tricky. For this purpose I went with flesh heads rather than yellow ones, and made sure to avoid any polarizing facial expressions, like the standard "bad guy" faces.
Though certainly not innocent, the workers are not the main culprits in this, but rather other people who are far away from what is actually happening, bear the biggest blame. Often these people who are the main cause of this are not even found in South America, but may reside in Europe, Asia or North America, and this was something that was unfortunately not possible to portray in this build.
When it comes to Lego techniques, much of the focus here was on the man-made parts, which I don't build that often. The nature is not really something new, but I do like the staggered wedge plates technique for a varied incline.
On his side, Bartu created some fantastic sounds, made by on his violin, mimicking the sounds of ongoing destruction of the forest.
Hope you like the build, and that you feel this issue has been properly portrayed.

I wasn’t going to get another Steve Trevor doll but I saw him on Amazon for $17 which was a pretty good price for one working doll. The seller took longer than expected to ship out so I’ve been waiting to swap parts around so I didn’t take any before pics.
Anyway, as you know, swapping his legs with Wonder Woman was super easy, but I really like Steve’s head on the Batman body so they swapped heads.
I’m a bit annoyed he came with an eyebrow rub but I can fix that.
But hey, welcome my twins Steve and Trevor.
Les bateaux qui remontent le fleuve amazone sont une vraie aventure à vivre ! Endroit rêvé pour faire de superbes rencontres.
Am 12.10.24 kam bei Jeserig die E 186 139 mit diesem Zug voller Trailer -überwiegend von Amazon- um die Ecke.
The Ariau River is a tributary of the Rio Negro in the Amazon Rainforest. This is a shot as seen from a small wooden boat. The piranha were mighty plentiful along here.
Thanks for looking!

Comments and constructive criticism always appreciated.
X This is from Brazil these two boys were enjoying themselves swimming in one of the small channels off the main River Amazon . They clearly had no fear of piranhas
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT HAVE A GREAT DAY
Here is the full diorama of all four Amazon builds created for mine and Bartu's Amazon collaboration!
First of all: Be sure to check out the Full Video of this build! This includes Bartu's masterful compositions, which is how this collaboration really comes alive! Don't miss it! :D
Hope you've enjoyed this collaboration! It has been quite a different one, working in two separate mediums, but I really want to thank Bartu for initiating this! It's been a very fun, interesting and intense month! Thanks!
One last thing: You seriously need to check out the VIDEO result of this collab to see how the music and lego builds work together. If not, you will just be seeing half of it :)
