A little celery I'm growing from my last batch of turkey soup. I've shot these little celery growths before but the inspiration for this one came a couple of months ago from my good friend Mags.

We enjoyed a morning at the Celery Fields again watching these clever fishermen in action! These Black Skimmers slice through the water so quickly and quiet. And sometimes they come up with a mouthful! We weren't sure if we were going to see much there, but as always the Celery Fields never disappoints.

Some more shots from our birding at the Celery Fields on Friday. Three Blue-winged Teal ducks were floating by close to the trail.
Three mallards on the water at the Celery Fields. The dam is in the reflection and gives it an abstract look to the water. Sliders applied using Lightroom.
Happy Slider Sunday!
Happy St. Patrick's Day, of course I had to do a green monochrome to mark the day. Off to look for pots of gold and leprechauns with my daughter today. Best of luck to you in finding your own treasures!
Discovered this squirrel doing an imitation of a gymnast on a balance beam at the Sarasota Celery Fields. Just a quick post this morning. Hate to post and run but Mom is having issues with adjusting to her new surroundings.
Happy Fence Friday!

Day sixty of lock-down in the UK.
Indoor, tabletop photos again today.
Stay safe and well everyone.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated
Note to self: wash produce thoroughly before photographing. Also take more time to edit, my touch up work is a bit sloppier than I would like on this image but I had less than perfect celery to work with.

Black bird on a branch at the Sarasota Celery Fields. This image had some distracting other branches that I was finally able to remove. Have been playing with some other features with Lightroom.

Happy Wing Wednesday!
A view of the man made hill at the Sarasota Celery Fields. I like the way the light was lighting up the trail and the shadows from the trees. Sarasota, FL It was a pretty start to the day and year!
Happy Trails Thursday!

The plant was re-grown from the base of a harvested celery plant from a local supermarket.

▶ "Daucus carota —whose common names include wild carrot, bird's nest, bishop's lace— is a flowering plant in the celery/carrot/parsley family (Apiaceae). It is native to temperate regions of the Old World and was naturalized in North America (where it is known as Queen Anne's lace). Domesticated carrots are cultivars of a subspecies, Daucus carota subsp. sativus.
Daucus carota grows between 1 and 4 feet tall (30-120 cm), and is roughly hairy, with a stiff, solid stem. The flowers bloom from late spring until mid-fall. Each flower cluster is made up of numerous tiny white flowers on a flat-topped white umbel 3 to 6 inches wide (8–15 cm), sometimes with a solitary purple flower in the center. The flower cluster starts out curled up and opens to allow pollination. The cluster then rolls itself shut again, like a reverse umbrella, when it goes to seed at the end of the season. "

These are the tiny pieces of celery found inside the heart.
Celery has made a surprising appearance in football folklore. Supporters of English Premier League team Chelsea and Football League team Gillingham regularly sing songs about the vegetable and are famed for throwing celery during matches. This has also given rise to the "Chelsea Cocktail", a pint of Guinness garnished with a stick of celery.
Macro Monday - Vegetables
I rooted the base of this celery from the supermarket in a ramekin with water. These are all new leaves, so it is growing. However, it won't send up stalks. Perhaps if I were to mound up potting soil as it grows, then it might.
This Red-shouldered Hawk was perched at the top of a pine watching over Celery Fields this morning. The soft morning light really brought out the color in the chest and the beautiful checkered pattern on the wings.
Always a treat to spend a quiet morning out there.

Apiaceae or Umbelliferae is a family of mostly aromatic flowering plants named after the type genus Apium and commonly known as the celery, carrot or parsley family, or simply as umbellifers.
Many thanks for your faves and comments, they're much appreciated :)
Believe it or not, this seledri is still my vegetables favourite and one of my fave mix salad...

A discussion of celery may seem strange in a book about wild plants, but in isolated areas celery does grow wild. These wildings - only a few steps from the fine, cultivated stalks of celery - are part of that great parsley family which includes so many poisonous plants.
For that reason, a note of caution is necessary here, to point out that essentially celery is a poisonous plant. We know that celery is improved in flavor if it can be first subjected to frost, thus removing the acrid principles just as, in the same family, parsnips are hardly fit to eat until they have spent the winter in the ground. Some people are allergic to celery, and for them the real harm comes from poison which is given off by the leaves under conditions of considerable moisture. This poison may produce a rash not unlike poison ivy. Gardeners - beware!
This has not, however, prevented celery from being a choice salad plant from the earliest times. It is said that the Romans enjoyed it and wove crowns of the leaves for dinner guests, while John Evelyn, in his interesting book on salads in the seventeenth century, gave celery high recommendation.
The druggist knows only the fruit or celery seed, which his guides list as a “stimulant and condiment.” Herbalists rate it as more important than that, however, and ascribe such virtues to it as nervine, antispasmodic, diuretic, and carminative. Almost every reference includes mention of celery as being of great value in rheumatism, but many plants are thus credited and the claims must be taken with a grain of salt. Rheumatism is an almost-universal complaint for which modern medicine has found alleviation, not cure. Because the disease comes and goes with or without treatment, it is easy for the sufferer to imagine that celery or almost any other plant has been of value.
