Make it an Amazing Weekend, Friends !!
Hummingbirds are birds from the Americas that constitute the family Trochilidae. They are among the smallest of birds, most species measuring 7.5–13 cm (3–5 in) in length.
They are known as hummingbirds because of the humming sound created by their beating wings which flap at high frequencies audible to humans. They hover in mid-air at rapid wing-flapping rates, which vary from around 12 beats per second in the largest species, to more than 80 in some of the smallest. Of those species that have been measured in wind tunnels, their top speed exceeds 15 m/s (54 km/h; 34 mph) and some species can dive at speeds in excess of 22 m/s (79 km/h; 49 mph).
Hummingbirds have the highest metabolism of any homeothermic animal. To conserve energy when food is scarce, and nightly when not foraging, they can go into torpor, a state similar to hibernation, slowing to 1/15th of its normal rate.

(Edited to taste)
THEY may be widespread and rather nondescript, streaked brown bird, but I have a real affection for them, as a ground-dwelling species, it is quite approachable with care. Feeds on invertebrates as seen, a bit harder in the capture in the winter when they often form loose flocks.

Great White Egret - Ardea Alba
The great egret is generally a very successful species with a large and expanding range, occurring worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats. It is ubiquitous across the Sun Belt of the United States and in the Neotropics. In North America, large numbers of great egrets were killed around the end of the 19th century so that their plumes could be used to decorate hats. Numbers have since recovered as a result of conservation measures. Its range has expanded as far north as southern Canada. However, in some parts of the southern United States, its numbers have declined due to habitat loss, particularly wetland degradation through drainage, grazing, clearing, burning, increased salinity, groundwater extraction and invasion by exotic plants. Nevertheless, the species adapts well to human habitation and can be readily seen near wetlands and bodies of water in urban and suburban areas.
The great egret is partially migratory, with northern hemisphere birds moving south from areas with colder winters. It is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies.
In 1953, the great egret in flight was chosen as the symbol of the National Audubon Society, which was formed in part to prevent the killing of birds for their feathers.
On 22 May 2012, a pair of great egrets was announced to be nesting in the UK for the first time at the Shapwick Heath nature reserve in Somerset. The species is a rare visitor to the UK and Ben Aviss of the BBC stated that the news could mean the UK's first great egret colony is established. The following week, Kevin Anderson of Natural England confirmed a great egret chick had hatched, making it a new breeding bird record for the UK. In 2017, seven nests in Somerset fledged 17 young, and a second breeding site was announced at Holkham National Nature Reserve in Norfolk where a pair fledged three young.
In 2018, a pair of great egrets nested in Finland for the first time, raising four young in a grey heron colony in Porvoo.

I Talk To The Wind - King Crimson / In the Court of the Crimson King (1969)
I talk to the wind. My words are all carried away. I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear. The wind cannot hear.
You don't possess me, don't impress me. Just upset my mind.
Can't instruct me or conduct me. Just use up my time.
I talk to the wind. My words are all carried away. I talk to the wind.
The wind does not hear. The wind cannot hear. I talk to the wind.
Said the straight man to the late man: Where have you been?
I've been here and I've been there and... I've been in between.

Insect Near Piha Beach - Four Tet / Sixteen Oceans (2020)
.....
The antipodes of where I was born and who I am are in the north of New Zealand near Auckand. But they are not on land, they are in the ocean. I am glad to know that the opposite of me is in the ocean, because the sea has always given me happiness and tranquility. The Four Tet insect, which was near Piha beach, was absolutely right.. Both my antipode and the insect are... Hiding Near Piha Beach... Away...
Escondido.
Cabalgando.
Escondido ¿no quieres irte lejos?
Hoy siento que estoy lejos.
Lejos.

MONASTERIO DE LA SANTA ESPINA.
Fue fundado por Doña Sancha de Castilla hermana del Rey Alfonso VII en 1147. Su nombre deriva de la espina de la Corona de Cristo que fue donada por Luis VII de Franca y que posteriormente regálo a este Monasterio. Se accede por un arco de triunfo del siglo XVI,
de este mismo siglo es la fachada de la hospedería. Al siglo XVII corresponde la fachada de la iglesia y sus torres, de la Escuela de Ventura Rodríguez.. En el interior sobresalen los dos claustros: el de la hospedería siglo XVI y el claustro regular del XVII. La sala capitular, de finales del XII, la planta destaca su sencillez propia del Cister, al igual que la iglesia, cuya planta guarda las características propias de este de este estilo.
En el interior se encuentran un interesante conjunto de capillas entre ellas, la Capilla de las Reliquia.
El Monasterio de la Santa Espina está declarado Bien de interés Cultural desde 1931 y actualmente funciona como centro integrado de Formación profesional, donde se imparten enseñanzas agrarias.

RAMAL DE CAMPOS.
A un kilometro de Calahorra de Ribas se localiza la 1ª esclusa de retención obedeció a la necesidad de regular el cauce del rio Carrión ante posibles crecidas.
En las proximidades se localiza la denominada acequia de Retención que permite el riego de 4000 hectáreas entre Ribas de Campos y Palencia.
El inicio de este tramo, en Calahorra de Ribas, es también el inicio del Ramal de Campos. Una tupida alameda acompaña el inicio de este tramo, como resultado del cruce con el rio Carrión. Enseguida encontramos la esclusa de la tercera retención. Mas adelante se pasa por la Laguna de Valdemudo un humedal de gran importancia ecológica, al final de la recta por la que discurre el Canal se encuentra el puente de Valdemudo junto a la Venta antiguo punto importante hoy abandonado. siete kilómetros mas abajo encontramos El Serrón y las esclusas 25,26, y 27, donde nace el ramal del Sur. El recorrido sigue por el ramal de Campos hasta llegar a Villaumbrales, donde se puede ver un precioso puente apuntado y la Casa del Rey actualmente restaurada que alberga el Museo del Canal. El Canal sigue hasta Becerril al que se accede por el puente de San Juan. A unos kilómetros de Becerril se llega a la meta del tramo: Sahagún el Real. Es un pueblo que nació del Canal, posteriormente abandonado y hoy restaurados algunos edificios. Merece la pena detenerse a observar los embarcaderos, almacenes, el puente y la Ermita del Canal. Desde este punto se puede admirar un hermoso paisaje de Tierra de Campos.

Longing for those lazy afternoons at the beach, feeling the whole body relax under the sun.
It's been a very long time without a house, always putting together decors and landscapes to remove them short after, to have prims to work in something new.
I learned how to box things with a Rezzer script, now I can rezz my little island, whenever I need it and remove it without worrying for redoing everything, yay!!
As it isn't possible in RL it was overdue enjoying the beach at least in SL ;)

Broken bottles and charred pieces of glass,
Wadded up newspapers tossed on the grass,
Pouring of concrete and tearing out trees.
This is the environment that surrounds me?
Poisons and insecticides sprayed on our food,
Oceans filling with thick oil crude.
All sea life destined to a slow, awful doom.
These are the things we are to consume?
Mills pumping out iron, expelling yellow fumes,
Airlines emitting caustic gases from fuels,
Weapons of destruction tested at desolate sites.
And this is the air that's to sustain life?
There has to be something that someone can do,
Like raise the awareness to those around you
That if we don't heed the problem at hand
It's your life that's at stake, the destruction of man.

Immortality
by Lindsay Laurie
Mortal are us human kind
seeking peace with baited breath.
Immortality imparts the mind
to believe there is no death.
Immortality is really history …
writings from the then times wealth.
Replayed in a similar mode
as history repeats itself.
Each tiny fraction of the puzzle,
is ancient generations text,
leads the way to consider
what right now is needed next …
Each year reaches new horizons,
the past has been addressed -
and we live our life believing,
our time is the very best.

What could be better than a drive across the glorious heather moors before dropping down into the stunning village of Staithes on the North Yorkshire coast? Once a busy fishing community, Staithes is a jumble of whitewashed, pantile-roofed cottages clinging to the hillside, threaded through with narrow ginnels leading to the pretty harbour and beach.
The young James (later Captain) Cook had his first job here (as an apprentice grocer, oddly, not a seaman), and the cobbles, alleys and cottages are pretty much as they were in the eighteenth century.
