"Fangorn" is a Sindarin word that translates as "Treebeard" (from fang = "beard" and orn = "tree"). Entwood is a modernization of Old English Entwudu (wudu "wood"), so modernised because it was recognisable by speakers of Westron. Gondorians used that name, assimilated to their own language
"Fangorn" es una palabra Sindarin que se traduce como "árbol barbudo" o "Bárbol". "Entwood" es una modernización del término "Entwudu" del Inglés Antiguo, modernizado así porque era reconocible por los hablantes de Westron. Los Gondorianos usaban ese nombre, asimilado a su propia lengua.

Yes, I do remember that day, the last holiday with French friends before Covid time, a picnic with them in a meadow of the Roussillon.
There I found this lovely wild succulent plant, I took a little branch of this for my balcony.
And now this is the first blooming at home!
I don't know its name, I add a picture in the comments for helping the ID.
Smile on Saturday with Memories ;-)

potrebbe essere una Riparia riparia ???
Bárbol conferma, grazie !!!
Il topino o rondine riparia (Riparia riparia Linnaeus, 1758) è un uccello della famiglia delle rondini (Hirundinidae).
Uccello migratore, comincia a svernare ad agosto, spostandosi in Africa centrale, Africa nordoccidentale o Sudamerica. Poiché la sua zona di migrazione per la covata è sempre più ricca di insediamenti e di industrializzazioni sta diventando sempre più frequentemente un uccello di passaggio e presente solo a macchia di leopardo, soprattutto in Europa centrale.
Ma qui eravamo in Liguria, in un freddo Febbraio !

Uninvited intruder on homeboy. A Japanese beetle munches on a native black-eyed Susan wildflower.
Trailhead Community Park of the East Decatur Greenway
Decatur (Winnona Park), Georgia, USA.

***************
▶ "Rudbeckia hirta —commonly called black-eyed Susan— is a flowering plant in the family Asteraceae, native to eastern and central North America.
Rudbeckia hirta is an upright annual growing 12 to 39 inches tall (30–100 cm) by 12 to 18 inches wide (30–45 cm). The plant produces daisy-like, composite flower heads, in late summer and early autumn [although appearing here in late spring], up to 4 inches in diameter (10 cm) with yellow ray florets circling a conspicuous brown or black, dome-shaped cone of many small disc florets.
The specific epithet 'hirta' is Latin for 'hairy,' referring to trichomes occurring on the leaves and stems. [Trichomes are epidermal outgrowths. Hair is one common type.]"

Questa e quelle che vi metto qui sotto sono le uniche foto floreali del mese di Maggio 2025.
Mi sono perduta le orchidee spontanee e tanto altro, menomale che ho il balcone ;-)
Metto le sette foto in votazione, quale preferite?
which is your preferred one ?
la principale qui è la numero 1, nei commenti le altre sei con relativa numerazione.
Questo è un fiore spontaneo portato dal vento o da qualche uccellino ...
è la primula rossa ?
assomiglia a
Lysimachia arvensis ma i petali qui sono più irregolari ...
Barbol insegna:
Anagallis arvensis
nomi comuni qui da noi:
Mordigallina
Centonchio rosso

Our neighbors on both sides of us have yucca plants. Both plants have a few of these insects crawling around the flowers. These true bugs are about an inch (3 cm) in length. Bárbol (see comment below) has identified this as Leptoglossus. I checked that genus, and it looks like this is Leptoglossus oppositus. Another commenter (see below) says that this is probably Leptoglossus phyllopus. I'm not sure. The Wikipedia says that these leaf-footed bugs are mostly sap suckers, and my guess is that that's what the insect is doing on yucca flowers.
Isn't God a great artist? Thanks for looking.

La Metcalfa è un insetto fitomizo, che si nutre di linfa vegetale, di cui digerisce solo la parte proteica, mentre la parte zuccherina, indigesta, viene espulsa sotto forma di melata che si deposita sugli organi vegetali. Dato l'elevato contenuto zuccherino, la melata attira diversi imenotteri, tra cui le api che lo trasformano in miele. La sua apparizione è stata un dono per gli apicoltori, ed il miele di questo particolare tipo di melata è l'unico che non prende il nome da una specie vegetale. Se gli apicoltori sono soddisfatti, non altrettanto lo sono gli agricoltori, poiché Metcalfa pruinosa causa seri danni alle colture, in particolare a causa delle specie fungine, fumaggini, che si sviluppano sulle sostanze zuccherine della melata.
È un insetto d'origine americana, dove è diffusa sia al Nord (Canada, Ontario, Québec, Usa, Messico, isole Caraibiche) sia al sud fino al Brasile. È stato introdotto accidentalmente in Europa e rinvenuto per la prima volta in Italia nel 1980 in Veneto . Da qui ha colonizzato tutto il territorio nazionale, isole comprese, e si è diffuso anche nelle zone circostanti e qui in Europa la quasi totale assenza di nemici naturali, ne fa una piccola peste.

Sono su un tronco, di Febbraio, in Liguria
GRAZIE Barbol !!!
Curiosità:
È generalmente considerato non commestibile e senza valore in Europa.
Nelle regioni tropicali, per esempio in Messico, è invece molto diffuso come fungo medicinale e alimentare, nonostante la sua consistenza coriacea e gommosa. È infatti ampiamente commercializzato in alcune aree dello Stato di Veracruz, ma anche in quelli di Oaxaca e Tabasco.
È inoltre apprezzato come fungo commestibile nell'India nord-orientale, in particolare negli Stati del Mizoram e di Manipur.

While visiting Hollis Gardens in Lakeland, Florida, USA, I came across this plant which had these pinkish-red leaves and could not pass it up. No idea what pant this is, but I wanted a splash of color in my Photostream.
I feel 'Barbol' (below) properly identified it as Dalechampia.

This moth/butterfly is lucky to be alive. Martin felt something crawling up his leg & thankfully he resisted the urge to swat it away. This beautiful creature had just emerged from it's chrysalis because it's wings were tiny, all shrivelled up still. I gently caught it & moved it onto a Red Valarian plant & over a period of an hour or so its wings gradually expanded.
I got distracted so don't know if it survived to fly away but I do hope so. Not sure on ID, possibly a Skipper butterfly or maybe an Orange Underwing moth? Hopefully someone with more knowledge can shed some light on this for me.
EDIT : ID provided by Bárbol as Noctua pronuba "Large Yellow Underwing" moth.
Happy Wing Wednesday & Happy Bokeh Wednesday. Photo 84/100 for the 100 Flowers 2020 group.
I'm sure I know what this is, but can't remember.

Green Longhorn moth "Adela reaumurella" (thanks Bárbol for the ID). I thought this little moth had 2 long white dog hairs stuck to it & was about to try to pull them off, then I realised the "hairs" were actually it's antennae! On Irish Spurge "Euphorbia hyberna"

"And smale foweles maken melodye"
A ruby-crowned kinglet (usually found in northern North America) was way south for the winter.
DeKalb County (Northlake), Georgia, USA.
26 February 2025.
***************
📷 Photographer's notes:
☞ Thank you to Flickr-er Bárbol who confirmed my guess that this handsome fellow was indeed a ruby-crowned kinglet.
☞ However, there appears to be some dispute about its taxonomy. Whereas Bárbol — and my 2008 edition of the National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of Eastern North America— classifies the species as Regulus calendula, the American Ornithological Society reclassified it as Corthylio calendulain 2021.
☞ The quotation (at the top of the caption) is a line from the Prologue to 14th-century English poet Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales. Translated from Middle English to modern English, it reads: "And many little birds make melody."
***************
▶ Rejection:
On 22 March 2025, the administrator for the Flickr group "GEORGIA, THE PEACH STATE" rejected this photo for NOT displaying "scenic beauty of the State of Georgia, USA." Denying the kinglet its migratory presence in the state is gaslighting nonsense.

Wild Fennel Series #3:
Saw this butterfly sipping nectar from the Wild Fennel flowers last Friday when the sun shone. Drizzle this morning; sun in the afternoon. Many thanks to Flickr member "Barbol" for correctly ID-ing the American Painted Lady!!
Thank you, Barból for the name of the plant: Pachystachys lutea. Also known as golden shrimp plant, golden candle, or lollipop plant.
Mentre il nostro piccolo treno merci effettua manovre per ritornare verso Villars, pazientemente attendiamo lungo la strada principale. Nel frattempo transita anche un treno regolare ai colori della nuova società fusionata TPC. Appena prima di questo punto iniziavano i lavori per il nuovo ponte e tracciato ferroviario che andrà a sostituire l’attuale percorso tortuoso lungo la costa della montagna.
Während unser kleiner Güterzug für die Rückfahrt nach Villars wendet, warten wir geduldig an der Hauptstrasse. In der Zwischenzeit fährt auch ein regulärer Zug in den Farben der neu fusionierten Gesellschaft TPC durch. Kurz vor diesem Punkt haben die Arbeiten für die neue Brücke und die neue Bahnstrecke begonnen, die die derzeitige kurvenreiche Strecke entlang des Berghangs ersetzen werden.
