Many people who have never been to NY state find it difficult to believe that any of it could look like this.

Today is the 20th day of Valentine's month of February. Caring is an important part of life, I love to care for others in many different ways, helping, supporting, healing, embracing, looking after, teaching, providing welfare, protecting, and attending to others.

 

I would also like to mention and thank those in the teaching, medical, food production, and teaching.

"Today was a Difficult Day," said Pooh.

There was a pause.

"Do you want to talk about it?" asked Piglet.

"No," said Pooh after a bit. "No, I don't think I do."

"That's okay," said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.

"What are you doing?" asked Pooh.

"Nothing, really," said Piglet. "Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite

often don't feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.

"But goodness," continued Piglet, "Difficult Days are so much easier when you

know you've got someone there for you. And I'll always be here for you, Pooh."

And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the

solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs...he thought

that his best friend had never been more right.

A.A. Milne

 

How you make others feel

says a lot about who you are.

Leave them with a smile,

a hug, and a kind thought.

A,A. Milne

 

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.

Dr. Seuss

 

Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For, indeed, that's all who ever have.

Margaret Meade

 

Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.

H. Jackson Brown Jr.

 

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Leo Buscaglia

 

With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe, and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️

Medium-sized woodpecker with bold black-and-white barring on back and a cream-colored belly. A patch of yellow on the lower belly can be difficult to see. Male has red crown and yellow nape. Female lacks red crown. Distinctive in range, but hybridizes with Red-crowned Woodpecker; hybrids best left unidentified. Found in open woodland, edges, and gardens.

Thank you very much for your comments and faves, regretfully, I am finding it increasingly difficult to reply to your comments, because of my very limited time on the internet, due to constant power interruptions in South Africa. I do read and appreciate every one of them, however! Thanks again!!

  

The Northern Nodding Trillium’s (Trillium cernua) white flower hangs below the main pedals of the plant, making it difficult to spot from far away. The flower is also much smaller than any of the five Ontario trillium species. Copyright © Kim Toews/All Rights Reserved.

A juvenile, size 02-03mm, from the same place as where I found the springtails from 21-07-2019. This one found in a handful of mud...

Another very difficult marsh bird to spot, this one was feeding along the reeds and calling fairly frequently, that haunting call that makes the hairs on the back of your head stand up if you aren't expecting it!

Difficult birds to identify unless they are heard and this one never made a sound. I was thinking Least Flycatcher but the eye ring doesn't seem bold enough.

A difficult bird to get a clean shot, was quite lucky to sight two of them - a pair - on some nice perches. It belongs to the large cuckoo family, but non-parasitic, i.e. it doesn't lay its eggs in other birds nests. The bird is easily recognizable by the bluish eye from which it derives its name. I had seen this bird dart off into trees where there were other birds nests several times, but I am not sure if it is a nest raider. Incidentally the bird is only found in South India and Sri Lanka.

 

Thanks in advance for your views and / or feedback. Much appreciated.

Rain can be difficult for flowers!

Difficult to spot in the snow. ;-)

During my last trip in China, I tried to take as much portrait shots I could. However, it's always a little bit difficult to ask, and when people agree, you don't want to disturb them too much, so you have to be super effective and you can only take 2-3 pictures before saying "thank you" and letting them go. It was a very good exercise anyway ...

 

Here is a violonist that was playing in the little alley of Ciqikou, the ancient town of Chongqing ...

Gale force winds and intermittent rain, not a pleasant walk around RSPB Snettisham but managed to get some photos. Difficult condtions even with a tripod.

It is very difficult to cope with this feeling, not knowing where you belong and not being able to internalize the place you live in is one of the heaviest burdens, it is not good for mental health, it is very difficult to struggle alone, but the nature and animals that surround me are always good companions for me.

  

If you want to see the statue up close, you can visit it from here. Who knows, maybe it will awaken completely different feelings in you.

The body shape is there and the feather groupings are roughed in. There is a lot of finer work to do there.

 

Long billed birds are typically carved in three pieces: body, head/neck, and bill.

 

The body and head were carved out of Tupelo Wood after the profiles were cut with a band saw. Tupelo is light, very fine grained, and ideal for working with micro motor tools for shaping. The bill piece was cut out from Australian Leopard Wood. It is a straight grained, very dense and tough wood which makes it ideal for the most fragile part of the carving.

 

It is a difficult wood to work with using knives or power tools with bits. It will be shaped with a power sanding tool. The mandibles will be separated with a wood burner. it will be permanently attached to the head.once the body is complete. The next steps will be painting and creating a base.

 

Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

 

Superb Fairy-wren

Scientific Name: Malurus cyaneus

Description: Adult male Superb Fairy-wrens are among the most brightly coloured of the species, especially during the breeding season. They have rich blue and black plumage above and on the throat. The belly is grey-white and the bill is black. Females and young birds are mostly brown above with a dull red-orange area around the eye and a brown bill. Females have a pale greenish gloss, absent in young birds, on the otherwise brown tail. The legs are brown in both sexes. Males from further inland and in the south-west of the range have more blue on the back and underparts.

Similar species: Several other species of fairy-wren are found in Australia. The males of each species are quite distinct, but the females and young birds are often difficult to separate. Of the species that overlap in range with the Superb Fairy-wren, the female White-winged Fairy-wren Malurus leucopterus and Red-backed Fairy-wren M. melanocephalus lacks the chestnut colour around the eye, while the female Variegated Fairy-wren M. lamberti has a dull grey-blue wash. Both the Superb and White-winged Fairy-wrens are similar in size. The Variegated Fairy-wren is slightly larger in size and has a longer tail.

Distribution: Superb Fairy-wrens are found south of the Tropic of Capricorn through eastern Australia and Tasmania to the south-eastern corner of South Australia.

Habitat: Seen in most habitat types where suitable dense cover and low shrubs occur. They are common in urban parks and gardens, and can be seen in small social groups. These groups normally consist of one dominant male and several females and young birds.

Feeding: Superb Fairy-wrens feed on insects and other small arthropods. These are caught mostly on the ground, but may also be taken from low bushes. Feeding takes place in small social groups.

Breeding: The nest is a dome-shaped structure of grasses and other fine material. It is usually placed in a low bush and is constructed by the female. The female incubates the eggs alone, but both sexes feed the young. Other members of the group will also help with the feeding of the young.

Male Superb Fairy-wrens have been labelled as 'the least faithful birds in the world'. Females may be courted by up to 13 males in half an hour, and 76% of young are sired by males from outside the social group.

Calls: The Superb Fairy-wren gives a series of high pitched trills, which are given by both sexes. The male often extends these trills into song.

Minimum Size: 13cm

Maximum Size: 14cm

Average size: 14cm

Average weight: 10g

Clutch Size: Three to four.

This was last weekend before we got locked down in the UK and not a moment too soon. Some people were taking it as an extra bank holiday.

Having walked through a few forests they are really difficult things to photograph. There seems a massive difference between what your eye sees and what works well in a photograph. Most of the photographs end up a whole bunch of confusing brown and greens.

I was standing in the bar Level 57 in Marina Bay Sands. Normally it is difficult to use your tripod there. I went the night before having a few drinks to see where I could place my tripod. That evening was crowded. I asked a nice lady if it was possible to reserve my spot for the day after, nope, bad luck. 10min later she came back to me. Where would you like to be? I showed ther the corner. The day after, I arrived at 18h, I saw they had closed a third of the bar, specially for me. Woohoow, I guess my bad luck turned into a phenomenal luck. I immediately phoned a friend, to come and join me. He was astonished we had that much space.

Difficult to accept that in a country as wealthy as ours that some actually seek out places such as this for shelter.

What would you choose?

Always sad news to hear that one of our heritage railway's reluctantly have to cease trading. Hopefully this can get sorted and we can see scenes like GWR Collett 5643 leaving the Berwyn Station again

This was taken at the 2019 Sony World Photography awards at Somerset House, in London.

 

FYI Entries have just opened for the 2021 competition.

 

Thanks for visiting......

This was a difficult compromise :-) I think Macro Mondays has challenged all of us members throughout the year. I chose to focus on some elements I used for the "Relaxation" theme (surfboards, see here: www.flickr.com/photos/134352553@N04/35597512936/) and a new take on the "Musical instruments" theme (piano instead of guitar, see here: www.flickr.com/photos/134352553@N04/24270050178/).

 

To me, using creativity to figure out what to do is quite different from the "busy" daily life. It is like diving into a paradise where heavenly music plays and "forces" you to relax... agree?

 

Thanks a lot to the admin group for a really nice year and HMM and HNY to you all :-)

Capturing this scene was easy, just being right place right time. Then spent some time cleaning the dirt from my sensor.

 

The difficult job here is that hook that was probably installed more then 100 years ago, no hydraulic, pneumatic or electric to help. With the man power...that was difficult, we have it so easy now, dont event realise it !

Difficult to escape a puddle of water for this springtail. Helped with a tip of kitchen paper that absorbed the water so that the springtail could get away. Also seen the same problems with Lipothrix lubbocki.

I should have waited for this show at the position of the previous photo, with the light reflected by the snow illuminating the ground, but I was a bit cold and went down and during the descent I had this show (that I had considered), therefore trying to stay in an area of ​​the zone with a still fairly wide view.

 

It is difficult to best render similar contrasts and natural colors so powerful and saturated as to require a slight reduction in saturation during file processing, a difficult choice.

 

The strong contrast of both light and colors was not perfectly managed by the camera, while I should have used the tripod and decreased the shutter speed to better diffuse the light, therefore a better exposure that would have helped to contain noise and burned details.

 

I can say that it is a photo captured in the moment, without the appropriate equipment, but believe me that the show was truly unique.

The back of MacArthur Mill is difficult to photograph, for the sightlines are obscured by trees. However, I found a spot by the channel to photograph the scene before the trees would leaf-out.

 

I called this a channel and not the river because it is human-engineered. It created an island with the river flowing on the other side of the mill. You can see the split in the previously-posted photo that I will put in comments.

 

By the way, apparently the river has seldom flowed higher than it has this year.

Difficult to see in migration, this sought-after warbler becomes almost conspicuous in breeding habitat. Port Huron SGA.

Remind yourself it's ok to not be ok sometimes.

No one has the right to tell you that their life is harder than yours. No one has the right to invalidate your struggles because they "got through it fine." No one has the right to tell you to suck it up because other people have it "worse." Hardships are not comparable. Your struggles are real, legitimate, and just as difficult as anyone else's.

Sure, you will be ok, but take the time to NOT be ok too.
