Grey Wagtail - Motacilla cinerea (M)
The species is always associated with running water when breeding, although they may use man-made structures near streams for the nest. Outside the breeding season, they may also be seen around lakes, coasts and other watery habitats. Like other wagtails, they frequently wag their tail and fly low with undulations and they have a sharp call that is often given in flight.
This slim wagtail has a narrow white supercilium and a broken eye ring. The upperparts are grey and the yellow vent contrasting with whitish underparts makes it distinctive. The breeding male has a black throat that is edged by whitish moustachial stripes. They forage singly or in pairs on meadows or on shallow water marshes. They also use rocks in water and will often perch on trees. They have a clear sharp call note and the song consists of trills.
The breeding season is April to July and the nest is placed near fast running streams or rivers on an embankment between stones and roots. The male in display, makes short flights up into the air and descends slowly with fluttering flight accompanied by a rapid series of chipping high notes. In Europe the nests are often made in holes in manmade structures. The clutch consists of 3–6 speckled eggs and multiple broods may be raised with declining numbers in the clutch in subsequent broods. The usual clutch size is five in Ireland and the breeding success is about 80% with predation of eggs or chicks being the main cause of breeding failure. The Canary Islands population typically have smaller clutches and the breeding season is not as short and well marked as in populations at higher latitudes. The incubation period is about two weeks with chicks fledging within a fortnight. They live for a maximum of 8 years in the wild.
In some parts of the its range the white-throated dipper nests in the same habitats as the grey wagtail and there are some records of interspecific feeding of dipper chicks by adult wagtails.

GAMBIA TOUR. Strongly associated with forest thickets and dense vegetation, feeding from the ground keeping in the dark shady spots, making a good image very difficult, this was the best of very many shots, and was pushing my luck at 1/45 shutter speed, but got lucky!. They seem to bounce along, only making very short flights. They are beautiful just the same.

The robin is one of the most familiar birds of the UK, regularly visiting gardens. Robins are also common in parks, scrub and woodland, making their presence known with a loud, territorial song. They sing from prominent perches right through the winter, when both males and females hold territories; indeed, they are fiercely territorial, driving off intruders and even fighting. During the breeding season, the female is allowed into the male's territory where she sets up a nest of dead leaves, moss and hair. Nests often crop up in the oddest of places, such as plant pots, old wellies and shelves, but Ivy and other shrubs are their natural choice. Robins have been associated with Christmas ever since Victorian times; Victorian postmen, who were known as 'Robin Red-breasts' because of their red waistcoats, are thought to be the inspiration for so many robins appearing on our Christmas cards. Whether it's the case or not, robins certainly make themselves known in winter with their loud, aggressive song!
ASSOCIATED typically with heathland sites, a small short-tailed lark, with a wonderful yodeling song. This was part of the support act for Colin the Cuckoo.
Seen at Thursley Common, and have not seen one since.

Probably the most commonly seen hawk in the mid-latitudes of North America, red-tailed hawks are also amazingly variable in their plumage colors and patterns. The spring 2025 edition of Living Bird (Cornell Lab of Ornithology) has an instructive story on this variation, based on the doctoral dissertation of a student at Cornell. He concluded there are at least 16 subspecies of red-tailed hawks associated with fairly distinct geographic locations, with color variation relating to the habitat (e.g. light morphs in warm climates, dark morphs in cold climates).

Works for the abbey and church were started in the 10th century over a pre-existing oratory associated with St. Colombanus. In 1477 the whole complex was damaged by a fire and rebuilt from around 1490 by Bernardino Zaccagni until 1519. The design was done by Antonio da Correggio.

Owls have been associated with wisdom, knowledge, and prophecy for thousands of years. However, they are also associated with bad luck, death, and other negative omens. Here are some old lore myths about owls:
Bad luck
Some say that hearing an owl hoot three times will bring bad luck.
Death
In the Middle East, owls are associated with destruction, ruin, and death, and are believed to represent the souls of people who have died unavenged.
And it goes on and on about how bad the owls are WELL! I call BS! That old Owl who licked that tootsie pop and failed to get to the center was not evil just lacking self-control.

Park Tower (formerly known as the Lykes Building) is a skyscraper located in downtown Tampa, Florida. It is Tampa's first high-rise tower. At the time of its completion in November 1973, it was the tallest in Florida, and is currently sixth-tallest in Tampa, at 458 feet (36 stories). It was the tallest building in Tampa until One Tampa City Center was built in 1981.
Park Tower is located in the heart of downtown Tampa directly across from The Tampa Riverwalk & Hillsborough River; Curtis Hixon and Gaslight Parks; the Glazer Children's Museum and the Tampa Museum of Art. It is within walking distance of the Tampa Convention Center, University of Tampa, and the David A. Straz Jr. Center for the Performing Arts.
In 2016 the tower was purchased by a joint venture consisting of affiliates of NYSE listed City Office REIT (NYSE: CIO), Feldman Equities LLC, and Tower Realty Partners for $79.75 million. The group completed a multi-million-dollar renovation in 2019. The most significant change at Park Tower is the modernization of the office building's façade by painting the exterior a lighter color and upgrading the main entrance. The building's amenities were upgraded with a modern lobby and the addition of Buddy Brew Coffee café. The office tower's updated design was created by internationally renowned architect Gensler.
Since acquiring the property, new leases have been signed including the headquarters relocation of CAPTRUST Advisors, LLC, Buddy Brew Coffee and Continuity Logic, LLC. Anchor tenants include BB&T, United States Department of Justice – US Attorney's Office, Level 3 Communications, and Lykes Insurance.
Park Tower is LEED EB Gold Certified and EPA Energy Star certified.
The tower's amenities include FedEx Office, U.S. Post Office, BB&T Bank, Grow Financial Credit Union, Pearl Salon, Nature's Table Café, a fitness center, conference room and a 6th-floor tenant lounge, lobby concierge and Buddy Brew Coffee.
Park Tower is the "Telco-Hotel" for the region, with a major telephony and internet presence.

The building has two underground 13.2kV electrical feeds from the utility power company, one of which is from the high-priority medical grid and multiple diverse entry points for fiber optic and other data cabling. Park Tower is home to a large underground Federal Reserve Vault. The building also features video-enhanced 24x7x365 on-site security.
When it was originally built, the tower was the home of The First National Bank of Tampa, later First National Bank of Florida (First Florida Corporation). Park Tower was also the headquarters of the Lykes Brothers Corporation. The tower was purchased by Sterling American Property of New York City for $27.4 million in 2006 and underwent its first restoration including newly renovated elevators, air conditioning, and replacement of much of the electrical distribution system. The building later became the downtown Tampa headquarters of Colonial Bank, now BB&T. BB&T's sign is still featured on the top of the building.

The history of construction the Temple of Divine Providence has more than 200 years and is associated with the Constitution of May 3, 1791, when resolution of the deputies of the Four-Year Sejm decided to build the temple as a vote of gratitude for the Constitution. Originally, however, it was supposed to be the "Temple of the Supreme Providence," a supra-religious place of worship, and the only element adorning it were the signs of the Shining Delta. The cornerstone was laid in the area of today's Botanical Garden of the University of Warsaw near Łazienki Park. However, the Third Partition of Poland interrupted the work undertaken and Poland disappeared from the map of the world for over 120 years.
After regaining independence in 1918, the idea of building on the Mokotów Field was returned, but the outbreak of World War II made it impossible to implement it for the next several decades.
It was only in 1989, after the fall of communism, that the construction of the Temple of Divine Providence was initiated. In 1991, the Constitutional Committee of the Senate of the Republic of Poland, in a resolution adopted on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the Constitution of May 3, confirmed the validity of the wedding. On May 2, 1999, the area dedicated to the construction of the temple was solemnly erected and the cross was blessed and on June 13, 1999, Pope John Paul II consecrated the cornerstone for the construction of the temple. On January 30, 2003, the President of Warsaw Lech Kaczyński handed over to Primate Józef Glemp the permission to build the Temple of Divine Providence with accompanying facilities. On February 25, 2003, construction work on the church-votum commenced.

Historia budowy Świątyni Opatrzności Bożej liczy ponad 200 lat i wiąże się z Konstytucją 3 maja z 1791 roku, kiedy to uchwałą posłów Sejmu Czteroletniego podjęta została decyzja o wybudowaniu świątyni jako wotum wdzięczności za Konstytucję. Pierwotnie miała to jednak być "Świątyni Najwyższej Opatrzności", ponad-wyznaniowe miejsce kult, a jedynym zdobiącym ją elementem miały być znaki Delty Świetlistej. Kamień węgielny wmurowano na terenie dzisiejszego Ogrodu Botanicznego UW w pobliżu Łazienek. Jednak III rozbiór Polski przerwał podjęte prace a Polska zniknęła z mapy świat na ponad 120 lat.
Po odzyskaniu niepodległości w 1918 roku powrócono do pomysłu budowy na Polu Mokotowskim, ale Wybuch II wojny światowej uniemożliwił jej realizację przez następnych kilkadziesiąt lat.
Dopiero w 1989 roku, po opadku komunizmu, zainicjowano kontynuację budowy Świątyni Opatrzności Bożej. W 1991 roku Komisja Konstytucyjna Senatu RP w uchwale powziętej z okazji 200-lecia Konstytucji 3 Maja stwierdziła aktualność ślubu. 2 maja 1999 roku na terenie przeznaczonym pod budowę świątyni uroczyście posadowiono i pobłogosławiono krzyż a 13 czerwca 1999 roku, Papież Jan Paweł II poświęcił kamień węgielny pod budowę świątyni. W styczniu 2003 roku prezydent Warszawy Lech Kaczyński przekazał prymasowi Józefowi Glempowi pozwolenie na budowę Świątyni Opatrzności Bożej a już 25 lutego 2003 roku rozpoczęły się prace budowlane nad kościołem-wotum.
Obecnie trwają prace nad upiększeniem budowli i uporządkowaniem terenu wokół świątyni.

The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) is a bird of the sparrow family Passeridae, found in most parts of the world. A small bird, it has a typical length of 16 cm (6.3 in) and a mass of 24–39.5 g (0.85–1.39 oz). Females and young birds are coloured pale brown and grey, and males have brighter black, white, and brown markings. One of about 25 species in the genus Passer, the house sparrow is native to most of Europe, the Mediterranean Basin, and much of Asia.
One of the most widespread and abundant songbirds in the world today, the House Sparrow has a simple success formula: it associates with humans. Native to Eurasia and northern Africa, it has succeeded in urban and farming areas all over the world -- including North America, where it was first released at New York in 1851. Tough, adaptable, aggressive, it survives on city sidewalks where few birds can make a living; in rural areas, it may evict native birds from their nests.
Forages mostly while hopping on ground. May perch on weed stalks to reach seeds. Adaptable in seeking food, may take smashed insects from the fronts of parked cars, or search tree bark for insects. Comes to bird feeders for a wide variety of items.
The Scripps Center is a high-rise office building located at 312 Walnut Street at the corner of 3rd Street in the Central Business District of Cincinnati, Ohio. At the height of 468.01 feet (142.65 m), with 36 stories, it is the fourth tallest building in the city, and the tallest added between the building of the Carew Tower in 1931 and the opening of the Great American Tower at Queen City Square – the tallest building in Cincinnati – in 2011. It was completed in 1990, and includes 500,000 square feet (46,000 m2) of office space. The building was designed by Houston architects Hoover & Furr; Glaser & Associates was architect of record. Space Design International was also involved with the building's design.
The headquarters of the E. W. Scripps Company is located in the Scripps Center.
In connection with the 2015 Major League Baseball All-Star Game played in Cincinnati, the upper exterior of the Scripps Center was decorated with a gigantic hat and mustache, giving it the appearance of a 19th century Cincinnati Redlegs player. Despite public support for keeping the decorations permanently, the mustache and hat were removed after the game. Television cameras were also mounted on the building's roof to provide aerial views of the game.

The Brickell World Plaza, also known as 600 Brickell, and formerly known as the Brickell Financial Center, is an office skyscraper in Miami, Florida, United States in the Downtown neighborhood and financial district of Brickell at 600 Brickell Avenue. The former Brickell Financial Centre Phase I, the Brickell World Plaza, is a 520-foot (160 m) skyscraper, one of the tallest buildings in Miami. 600 Brickell is located between the Fifth Street and Eighth Street Metromover stations.
The building contains 600,000 square feet (56,000 m2) of leasable floor space, an eleven-story parking garage with 927 spaces, and a 30,000-square-foot (2,800 m2) ground level public plaza, and was also supposed include an outdoor area with a stage.
The 40 story building was topped out in early 2009 but construction was suspended or greatly slowed, as the building was still not completed over two years later as of March, 2011. The building lost an anchor tenant, a law firm that had a $58 million, 10.5-year lease for 15 percent of the building (115,000 sq ft), in early 2009.
With the new name of Brickell World Plaza, the building has a scheduled opening date of August 2011. The building developers, the Foram Group, have claimed that this slowed construction was strategic for the purpose of detail and that after completion they will move their corporate offices into the building. However, the near halt in construction and the loss of a major tenant suggests that the delay was not strategic, but due to the 2008 economic crisis and the falling demand for office space due to the excessive construction in Miami at that time.
Early in 2011, 600 Brickell got a $130 million construction mortgage loan from Los Angeles-based Canyon Capital Reality Advisors that will fund the rest of the construction. This was one of the largest loans issued in the city of Miami since the real estate crisis.
When 600 Brickell came online in August–September 2011, it increased Miami's downtown office vacancy to nearly 25%, and Class A Brickell vacancy to over 30%.
That could change with the arrival of a new leasing team. Foram has hired Jones Lang LaSalle, led by veteran brokers Glenn Gregory and Noël Steinfeld, to handle leasing for the nearly 615,000-square-foot (57,100 m2) building. Gregory and Steinfeld said a full-court press to land tenants is finally under way. Shortly before Foram hired Jones Lang, the developer signed a pair of new-to-market tenants — New York-based lender Doral Money and Irvine, California-based mediation and arbitration services firm JAMS — to occupy a combined 30,090 square feet (2,795 m2) at the building. Gregory and Steinfeld said they are in discussions with prospective tenants for about 300,000 square feet (28,000 m2), although that includes some space being marketed to multiple companies.
Gunster (law firm) moved its Miami office to the building's 35th floor.
The building will be South Florida's first Cisco Connected Commercial Office Building in partnership with Cisco Systems Inc. Essentially it will have its own dedicated hub connecting it to the Internet with a secure and flawless connection. The project was designed by the global architecture firm RTKL and its developer was the Foram Group. The Foram Group's intended goal was to set a new gold-standard for technology and sustainability in international commercial property development by creating the most innovative and forward thinking office building in Miami.
"We designed the building from the inside out, not the outside in," said Loretta H. Cockrum, Foram's founder, chairman and CEO. "We wanted the most efficient office building ever designed, with no wasted space or wasted energy. This is a building of the future more than a building of the present. A lot of love has gone into that building, and a lot of pride."
The Brickell World Plaza is the state of Florida's first building to be pre-certified under the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program. In addition to this, it is one of very few buildings in the world of its size to receive the LEED Platinum rating, the highest available from the US Green Building Council. Another feature that contributed to this precertification is the water program: the building collects all rainfall and condensed water from the cooling towers in a 10,000 US gallons (38,000 L) tank to be reused for irrigation and makeup water for the fountains at Brickell World Plaza.
It will also be the first building in South Florida to be a part of Cisco Systems "Cisco Connected Commercial Office Building", which basically means it has a fast and secure, dedicated internet connection. The originally planned Brickell Financial Centre (two buildings) was to include office space, a hotel, luxury condominiums and a public plaza. The Brickell World Center will not feature the hotel or condominiums, but the ground level plaza will be a 30,000-square-foot (2,800 m2) public space as well as 18,000 square feet (1,700 m2) of ground level restaurants and cafes, as well as an outdoor stage where events may be held, probably taking up the rest of the property where the Brickell Financial Centre II would have gone.
The first eleven floors of the building above the plaza are a parking garage, while the remaining 28 floors are all office space. The outside of Brickell World Plaza is lit up at night similar to the Miami Tower. This began before Christmas in December 2011 with a ceremony with governor Rick Scott where a 40-foot wreath was hung on the building.

An abstract from a website:
The Metropolitan Natural Park (Parque Natural Metropolitano) is just a few minutes from downtown Panama City. It’s easy to reach by car or taxi and provides travelers with a good daytime excursion while visiting Panama City.
Dry lowland Pacific forest, which is rare in Central America due to deforestation, makes up much of the park. Incredibly, the park’s forest is home to 284 types of trees. The park also protects all kinds of critters, including 254 species of birds, 45 species of mammals, 36 species of reptiles, and 14 species of amphibians. Geoffroy’s tamarins, two-toed sloths and three-toed sloths live here, although you’ll need luck to see them. You’re more likely to spot birds and reptiles.
The park’s five trails cover some 3 miles (5 km). The Mono Tití Road ascends to the top of Cerro Cedro (Cedar’s Hill) and offers impressive views of Panama City.
