maledette api
ammicco le palpebre nell' angolo del silenzio ed esposto
al vento mi metto in disordine per colpa di un segnale di ritorno.
mi pulisco le spalle dalla ruggine ferrigna e con una decisa
testata rompo uno strato di ghiaccio opaco.
una farfalla emette un ronzio simile al cigolio di una trottola
da gioco.
esaurito da una visione stupefacente , osservo lo spettacolo
di un'aurora boreale in vena di scherzi : salta , balla
si eleva priva di senso , quasi fischietta...
e infine l'apparizione di un apicoltore e le sue maledette
api da compagnia ; il suo viso è rubicondo, pieno di chiazze rosse….
che sia forse morbillo?
VI RIMANDO AD UN SIGNOR GRUPPO PATTONALE
In May 1895, Giuseppe Botti found in the great temple of Serapis, a pillar bearing a dedicatory inscription: "To the great god Serapis and sunnaoi (deities sharing the temple) for the safety of Emperor Caesar Trajan Hadrian Augustus". A few days later, parts of the Apis bull statue were found on the surface at the northeastern corner of the building leading to the underground galleries. The head was separated from the body as well as the tail and parts of the hooves. These parts remained for three years in the courtyard of the Alexandria municipality building until Chiess Bey, head of the museum committee of the municipal council, managed to obtain funds for its restoration. The Italian sculptor M.V. Marcucci took responsibility and pointed out the attaching point of the pillar under the belly because of a socket cut there.
This statue was probably dedicated to Hadrian or from the emperor himself to Serapis in the Alexandria temple, during his visit to Egypt in 130 AD. The bull was a sacred symbol of Osiris-Hapi, the god of Memphis, an Egyptian deity since Pharaonic times as a god of the underworld and a symbol of the annual resurrection of nature, and later on, turned into Serapis, and was worshipped by both Egyptians and Greeks.
The statue depicts the Apis bull in a naturalistic way, which appears clearly in the area below the chin. A layer of short hair appears on the forehead and two growing horns with the sun disk between them and a uraeus in front. The movement of the ears indicates sensitive listening, which alludes to the god responding to the supplication of its worshippers.

Fire-tufted Barbet, Psilopogon pyrolophus, Takur Api
This species is one of common hill station Barbet in Malaysia highland areas, above 800m. Its usually solitary and its green plumage blends well with the foliage, thus making its difficult to spot when feeding on trees. But the call is unique, a cicada-like, high pitched whirr, repeated with increasing speed, make even experienced bird watchers confused it with a large cicada. Its highly specialized bill enables it to tackle hard fruits such as figs, which are swallowed whole.

I spent some time watching bees in my raspberry patch, and came across this guy stuck in a spider web. I ran my finger under his legs to free him without a second thought. He sat there for a minute, and flew off.
I later told my mother, showing her this photo, and her first thought was that I could have been stung... I guess that didn't occur to either of us.
