Ebird checklist:

ebird.org/checklist/S48922442

 

Tiny and active sunbird of forest edges, parks, and gardens; the most common urban sunbird throughout most of its range. Both sexes have a plain olive back, a yellow belly, and white tail edges that are flared out in flight. The male flashes an iridescent blue throat while the female has a yellow throat and eyebrow. Female Brown-throated Sunbird also has a yellow belly, but it is larger with a thicker bill and lacks the Olive-backed’s white tail patches. Only sunbird species in Australia.

Olympus digital camera

One of several structures in the gardens of the Atlanta Botanical Gardens showing the early spring flowers and new fronds of the painted fern. In the deep shadows of the garden the moss and lichen have found their home. This shot was taken using a 100mm macro lens. Although not a macro shot, the lens captures the garden space perfectly - sharp but with a smooth and fairly quick DOF fall-off, resulting in a subtle and subdued bokeh background.

For critical observers. In the prompt I asked for twin moons, hence, it seems to make sense that light comes from the right, while there's a moon in the back.

El Jardí Botànic de Barcelona es un Jardín botánico de 14 hectáreas de extensión. Dentro del Jardín se encuentra el Instituto Botánico de Barcelona (IBB-CSIC), un centro mixto perteneciente al CSIC y el Ayuntamiento de Barcelona.

 

Se inauguró el 18 de abril de 1999, en el solar de un antiguo vertedero de escombros en el Parque de Montjuic. El proyecto fue obra del Ayuntamiento de Barcelona.

Las colecciones están enfocadas en plantas de las regiones mediterráneas de todo el mundo, esta es una vegetación vinculada al clima mediterráneo que se caracteriza por un largo verano seco, de inviernos suaves y lluvias en la primavera y el otoño. Este clima sólo se encuentra sobre un 5% de la superficie de la tierra pero en 5 regiones del mundo en las cuales las plantas tuvieron una evolución adaptativa específica que con todo da paisajes bastante similares, por lo que las plantas se distribuyen agrupadas, según las cinco regiones mediterráneas del mundo.

 

Las sendas nos permiten acceder de zona en zona, comenzando por las Islas Canarias situadas a la entrada y subir al Mediterráneo occidental reconocible por el instituto botánico, que sobresale.

 

Del hemisferio Norte, la zona con una mayor representación es la Cuenca Mediterránea, siguiendo el camino de visita se accede hasta las costas de California de clima mediterráneo.

 

Después se encuentran las zonas mediterráneas del hemisferio Sur donde se visita la región mediterránea de Chile, el sur de África, y las dos regiones mediterráneas del sur de Australia (SE y S).

 

The Jardí Botànic de Barcelona is a 14-hectare botanical garden. Inside the Garden is the Botanical Institute of Barcelona (IBB-CSIC), a joint center belonging to the CSIC and Barcelona City Council.

 

It was inaugurated on April 18, 1999, on the site of an old rubble dump in Montjuic Park. The project was the work of the Barcelona City Council.

The international identification code of the "Jardí Botànic de Barcelona" as a member of the "Botanic Gardens Conservation International" (BGCI), as well as the initials of its herbarium is BC.

 

The collections are focused on plants from Mediterranean regions around the world, this is a vegetation linked to the Mediterranean climate that is characterized by a long dry summer, mild winters and rains in spring and autumn. This climate is only found on 5% of the earth's surface, but in 5 regions of the world in which the plants had a specific adaptive evolution that nevertheless gives quite similar landscapes, for which reason the plants are distributed grouped, according to the five Mediterranean regions of the world.

 

The paths allow us to access from zone to zone, starting with the Canary Islands located at the entrance and going up to the western Mediterranean recognizable by the botanical institute, which stands out.

 

From the Northern Hemisphere, the area with the greatest representation is the Mediterranean Basin. Following the visit path leads to the coast of California with a Mediterranean climate.

 

Then there are the Mediterranean areas of the Southern Hemisphere where you visit the Mediterranean region of Chile, southern Africa, and the two Mediterranean regions of southern Australia (SE and S).
