Les jumelles, l'objet indispensable pour répondre aux petites questions du quotidien.
"Ou est passé mon troupeau?" (le cas de Api sur la photo)
"C'est qui le type qui vient dans ma direction?"
"Est ce que j'pourrais pas trouver une marmotte ou un mouflon à braconner?"
Les abeilles (Anthophila) forment un clade d'insectes hyménoptères de la superfamille des apoïdes. Au moins 20 000 espèces d'abeilles sont répertoriées sur la planète dont environ 2 000 en Europe et près de 1 000 en France.
Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, known for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the European honey bee, for producing honey and beeswax. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea and are presently considered a clade, called Anthophila. There are nearly 20,000 known species of bees in seven recognized biological families.
Die Bienen (Apiformes oder Anthophila) sind eine Insektengruppe, in der mehrere Familien der Hautflügler (Hymenoptera) zusammengefasst werden. Umgangssprachlich wird der Begriff Biene meist auf eine einzelne Art, die Westliche Honigbiene (Apis mellifera)
Los antófilos (Anthophila, gr. ‘que aman las flores’), conocidos comúnmente como abejas, son un clado de insectos himenópteros, sin ubicación en categoría taxonómica, dentro de la superfamilia Apoidea. Se trata de un linaje monofilético con más de 20 000 especies conocidas
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.

Tool wall in the abandoned mercury smelter - New Idria
New Idria is a ghost town located in a remote area of the Coast Range of California (USA), outside the town of Hollister. It was once a center for mercury (quick silver) and asbestos mining. New Idria was at its peak well before the Gold Rush in California of the 1840's and 1860's. There are still high levels of mercury and asbestos polution in the area.
If you don't mind ignoring all the "no trespassing" signs, you can visit an amazing mercury smelter with four large "Gould" rotary furnances. This smelter was abandoned in the 1970's. All those photos were taken in May 2004.

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.
Apidae- Western Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) nectaring Salvia Mistic Spires (Salvia nemorsa), 8/23/2024, The Landings Sparrow Field "Pollinator Garden Berm," Skidaway Island, Savannah, Ga.
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.
