I love colour. I love it even more when it is bold and used in a unique colour scheme.
I drove by this house twice before I stopped. It's just one of those places where all the pieces fit together to make the ordinary become extraordinary.
Bold, brave, and beautiful. It totally stole my heart.
Dahlia / Dahlie 'Dahlegria Tricolore'

If you love these "symbols of summer" too,
have a look at my Dahlia Collection.
Part of a herd in South Dakota, just off I-29. The traffic, the long grass which is a haven for ticks (yuck), stumbling through a ditch, all worth it for this stunning horse.
This bird came to my very feet in the hope of getting some kind of treat. And she got it!
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
A beautiful Lioness we spotted while on a 2023 photo safari in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. She stopped her search for prey just long enough to show me those eyes.
In the savannas of Africa, female lions play a crucial and dynamic role in their familial groups, shaping the social structure and bearing the responsibility for the pride’s survival. Contrary to some common misconceptions, lion prides operate within a matriarchal social structure, where females hold the key roles in decision-making and coordination.
Lionesses are the primary hunters within the pride. Their exceptional teamwork and strategic approach to hunting are essential for the pride’s survival and well-being. Together, they deploy strategic hunting techniques, such as coordinated flanking and ambushing, to outwit their prey. Their synchronized efforts increase the likelihood of a successful hunt to secure food for the entire pride.
Male lions are typically responsible for protecting their pride from other males. However, the females play a vital role in defending the pride’s territory against threats such as leopards, hyenas, neighboring prides, and occasionally other males. The survival of a pride often hinges on the lionesses’ ability to protect their territory.
The lionesses’ strong maternal instincts are at the foundation of the pride’s social bonds. As a group, they are responsible for raising and nurturing the cubs. They teach essential survival skills, including hunting techniques and social behaviors, which ensure the continuity of the pride’s legacy. The pride communicates through vocalizations and body language, fostering a strong sense of community. The bonds formed among females contribute to the overall success and stability of the group.
In the lion pride, females emerge as the unsung heroes, weaving together the threads of survival, protection, and legacy. Their role as huntresses, defenders, nurturers, and leaders is integral to the pride’s success.

I was in a hurry, already late going out, but stopped to take this photo of Bella through the window. She chose to jump up onto the windowsill again to see what I was doing. It's a huge step forward for her that only started this week - until now she was too scared of traffic to go near the windows at the front of my home. Morning sunlight is reflected on the window & also lighting Bella's fur.
Happy Caturday!
Les Braves, Omaha Beach Memorial: „The Wings of Hope“, „Rise, Freedom!“ and „The Wings of Fraternity“
Do you know our earth is a mess
All the wars for nothing, it never ends
Everybody deserves a chance
All the souls, all the souls, can you hear them cry?
That you livein peace does not mean
It's okey to ignore all the pain
I see children joining the stars
Solders walk towards the dark, let me ask
Can you justify all the eyes
That will never see daylight
Give me one good reason to hurt
A helpless soul, break a heart, kill a mind.
Do you know how many innocents
Are hiding from punishment
For crimes they'd never commit
All alone, all alone, do they deserve
To die for believing something else,
For having a face someone can't stand
Do you know our earth is a mess
All the wars for nothing, it never ends
All the souls, all alone, hold them tight
All the souls, deserve a chance at life
