This was another shot, where I have to hide myself from bird nest. She was keep coming and checking the spot for any invaders, finally I walked away when she was hovering above and came back after she left and hide behind trees and vegetation. I was merely 20 feet from the nest, thank god that I had zoom with me, otherwise it would be very difficult to keep the whole action in frame. Well, it was worth the effort!

Constructed between 1883 and 1884 the cliff lift in Saltburn is the oldest water-balance cliff lift in the United Kingdom.
For centuries Hellnar was the largest of the fishing villages on the south side of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in Iceland. A church was first built in village in 1833 The church in the photo was constructed in 1945 on the site of the earlier church.
The peak, located inside the boundaries of Snæfellsjökull National Park, is called Stapafell (High Lava or Lava Butte). The pyramid shaped volcanic butte stands 526 meters ( 1726 feet) high and is made up of lava that cooled quickly as it flowed in to the sea. The basaltic "volcanic glass" was quickly altered and devitrified forming a altered volcanic rock called palagonite. The top of the pyramid is capped by a volcanic plug. That rock was called Fellskross by the Vikings who arrived on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula before 1000 AD. Stapafell and Fellskross were sacred places to the early Vikings. Stapafell was believed to be the home of "hidden people” or elves, who protected the Peninsula. Fellskross was the symbol of their power. The area around Snæfellsjökull is rich in lore and stories about elves, trolls, fairies and other 'hidden folk'.

The seawall in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is a stone wall that was constructed around the perimeter of Stanley Park to prevent erosion of the park's foreshore. Colloquially, the term also denotes the pedestrian, bicycle, and rollerblading pathway on the seawall, one which has been extended far outside the boundaries of Stanley Park and which has become one of the most-used features of the park by both locals and tourists. James "Jimmy" Cunningham, a master mason, dedicated his life to the construction of the seawall from 1931 until his retirement. Even after he retired, Cunningham continued to return to monitor the wall's progress, until his death at 85. While the whole path is not built upon the seawall, the total distance from CRAB park, around Stanley Park and False Creek to Spanish Banks is about 30 kilometres (19 mi).

" The time of war is almost over, now the time to rebuild is come. Well, to build for us, since we lost everything, including our old home. We live since a month now in an old fishing village, surrounded by cliffs and mountains. Yesterday, me and the council decided to call our little town Greyhaven. And that same day, our worked finished the construction of a defensive wall. Everyone has a house now. Greyhaven is ready to expend"

Boulders Beach is a sheltered beach made up of inlets between granite boulders, from which the name originated. It is located on the Cape Peninsula, in Simon's Town in the Western Cape province of South Africa. It is also commonly known as Boulders Bay. It is a popular tourist spot because of a colony of African penguins which settled there in 1982. Boulders Beach forms part of the Table Mountain National Park.
These African penguins are only found on the coastlines of Southern Africa (South Africa and Namibia). These penguins are currently endangered. As a result, the penguins are under the protection of the Cape Nature Conservation.
Although set in a residential area, it is one of the few sites where this vulnerable bird (Spheniscus demersus) can be observed at close range, wandering freely in a protected natural environment. From just two breeding pairs in 1982, the penguin colony has grown to about 3000 birds in recent years. This is partly due to the prohibition of commercial pelagic trawling in False Bay, which has increased the supply of sardines and anchovies, which form part of the penguins' diet. as well as the help from former SANDF naval officer, Van the Penguin Man
Bordered mainly by indigenous bush above the high-water mark on the one side, and the clear water of False Bay on the other, the area comprises several small sheltered bays, partially enclosed by granite boulders that are 540 million years old.
The most popular recreational spot is Boulders Beach, but the penguins are best viewed from Foxy Beach, where newly constructed boardwalks take visitors to within a few metres of the birds. It is also a famous swimming beach, although people are restricted to beaches adjacent to the penguin colony.

The rectangular courthouse is constructed of locally quarried stone and rises two-stories on top of a full ground floor. The long arched windows line the facade, three on the front and nine on the sides and are separated by a pair of Doric pilasters. The main entrance is flanked by an inner Corinthian column and an outer Corinthian pilaster. The door is located inside a recessed portico and is topped by a fanlight. The flat roof is supported by an entablature with urns on the corners.

La construction de la basilique de Saint-Quentin a débuté à la fin du XIIe siècle et est achevée trois siècles plus tard. Les guerres, les épidémies et les difficultés financières expliquent la lenteur inhabituelle des travaux qui resteront inachevés, la façade n'ayant jamais été construite. L'édifice est le témoin prestigieux d'une époque fervente et fastueuse, quand la ville était à la fois foyer religieux et position stratégique aux confins nord du royaume.
Cet ensemble complexe, original et fascinant, appartient tout entier au gothique dont il réunit toutes les évolutions.
L'édifice est long de 123 mètres.
Hauteur sous voûtes de la nef et du chœur : 34 mètres.
Largeur : 52 m.
Il y a deux transepts et cinq portails.

The Library
The house is built from red brick, and was constructed in 1700 for Sir William Massingberd. Many of the interiors of the house are wood paneled, and it has 8 acres of Victorian walled gardens, which contain traditional English flowers, fruits and vegetables.
The Hall is a Grade 1 listed building. It was substantially extended in 1873 and again in 1898 with the addition of the North Wing and Clock Tower.
The hall is now in the care of the National Trust.
