A Suffragette poem... Pixievic Feb 2016
Warriors
Deeds not words!
They cried in their protest
Marching on Parliament
Intent on their quest
to the corrupt politicians
who recorded their struggle
but denied them the vote
and left them to juggle
their lives that equalled
less than their brothers
where they had no rights
not even as mothers.
As wives they were thwarted
their wages, their spouses,
they worked long hard hours
and still kept their houses.
Tea on the table,
washing hung out
the children looked after,
to their husbands - devout.
They stood up for their choices
the injustice they faced
were imprisoned & tortured
and fired in disgrace.
Children were taken
away from their mothers
who were labelled as mad,
their opinions were smothered.
Yet still they continued
to rally & fight,
secure in the knowledge
that they deserved rights
that equalled the men
that ruled their world -
So they took up arms
and fists were curled.
When one was killed
that brave young girl
who in front of a horse
her body she hurled.
"Votes for Women"
her banner announced,
so simple & honest
the message pronounced
to hundreds of people
who just stood & stared.
As her breath left her body
the women prepared
to fight their fight,
be true to their cause,
take down the men
and change the laws.
So thank you to those
brave women of old
who did what they did
without being told.
We now have the right
as women, to fight
without risk to our freedom
and stand up for our rights!
Both male and female woodpeckers were sharing 'equal duties' carrying out fecal sacs and bringing food to their young babies. This is the female.
This didn't look like a fecal sac to me but since it was outgoing it must have been!!
Thank you for your visit and comments...:)
Wakefield Cathedral, or the Cathedral Church of All Saints in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England, is a co-equal Anglican cathedral with Bradford and Ripon Cathedrals, in the Diocese of Leeds and a seat of the Bishop of Leeds. Originally the parish church, it has Anglo Saxon origins and, after enlargement and rebuilding, has the tallest spire in Yorkshire. Built in ashlar sandstone, its 75 metre spire is the tallest structure in the City of Wakefield. The cathedral was designated a Grade I listed building on 14 July 1953.
The cathedral, situated in the centre of Wakefield on a hill on Kirkgate, is built on the site of a Saxon church, evidence of which was uncovered in 1900 when extensions to the east end were made. A church in Wakefield is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. In 1090 William II gave the church and land in Wakefield to Lewes Priory in Sussex and shortly after that a Norman church was built.
The Norman church was rebuilt in 1329, and apart from the tower and spire, was again rebuilt and enlarged in 1469. The church was reconstructed and altered at various times and its spire, damaged in a violent gale, was renewed in 1823. Up to the 16th century the church was known by the Anglo Saxon All Hallows but after the Reformation changed to All Saints.
All Saints' Church was largely rebuilt in the Perpendicular Gothic style in the early-15th century and, after years of neglect was again rebuilt in the 18th century. It owes its current late-mediaeval appearance to a Victorian restoration by George Gilbert Scott and his son John Oldrid Scott between 1858 and 1874.
In 1888, the Diocese of Wakefield was created and the parish church became the cathedral of the diocese. It still served as a parish church, meaning that until 2000 the head of the chapter of canons was called the provost, rather than the dean. Treacy Hall built in memory of Bishop Eric Treacy was completed in 1982.
Peregrine falcons have nested on the cathedral's tower since 2015 and raised 24 chicks in seven breeding seasons. They attract much interest locally and across the UK and internationally.

Okavango Delta
Botswana

Botswana has the largest elephant population on the continent due to tight protection and civil unrest in neighbouring countries. The relative difficulty in accessing the wildlife areas coupled with the military threat to poachers has allowed the elephant population in Botswana to grow.
The Chobe River front was once only a part of the ancient elephant migration routes but with civil war in Angola and the war of liberation in Namibia the elephants fell victim to mass poaching.
Rival armies were killing elephants for target practice and to sell ivory for weapons. The elephants reacted to this threat by not crossing Chobe River, instead the Chobe then became the dry season refuge for the herds and over the years the numbers built up and the reputation of Chobe grew.
There have been incidents of poaching in Botswana, mainly rhino, but the government decided to set up a military task force in the fight against the scourge. Poachers were ruthlessly dealt with and the task force became a full-time anti-poaching unit.
The end of the war in Namibia, and relative peace having returned to Angola, the elephants have slowly but surely started moving across the Chobe River again. There are many elephants that have not had the experience of the migration routes and still see Chobe as a dry season refuge.
The Linyanti area of Botswana was once a hunting concession but in the past 10 years, with only photographic tourism being offered, the elephants are starting to return en masse to the region and Linyanti today is being touted as equal to Chobe when it comes to elephant experience.
Other areas of Botswana such as the Okavango Delta also see high concentrations of elephant due to the permanent water source.

This is the closeup of a sculpture entitled "Hunger March" by artist Jens Galschiotdisplayed and it was being displayed in the park along with 2 other as a series. The whole piece was actually 20 copper sculptures of starved children, and it appeared as a mobile manifestation in the protests during the WTO summit.
I think the facial expressions of starved children showed a lot of pride despite the injustice they're going through and all, so i zoomed in and took a few shots. This is the one i liked more. Hope y'all like it too. I'll submit a photo of the sculptures as a whole piece later.

Dedicated to all builders and carpenters (especially my dad) who take pride in their craftsmanship, respect the grain of the wood, and mourn the loss of trees from our planet in equal measure. A relic from my distant, distant past, and definitely a safety hazard by today's standards but I loved playing with this puzzle.

“We are all equal in the fact that we are all different. We are all the same in the fact that we will never be the same. We are united by the reality that all colours and all cultures are distinct & individual. We are harmonious in the reality that we are all held to this earth by the same gravity. We don't share blood, but we share the air that keeps us alive. I will not blind myself and say that my black brother is not different from me. I will not blind myself and say that my brown sister is not different from me. But my black brother is he as much as I am me. But my brown sister is she as much as I am me.”
― C. JoyBell C.
