This juvenile Eared Grebe gave me a great show flapping and stretching. Perhaps he was exercising his wings for the long flight south for his winter vacation. Taken at Weed Lake, east of Calgary, Alberta. I will catch up with everyone later.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
Hope you liked my last Flickr pic – I’ve managed to cover up my modesty now with this old jacket from Addams. I really love the way Second Life looks at the moment with the new Bento heads and some amazing appliers from a variety of different stores. When I compare myself with how I looked when I first entered this wonderful world there is no comparison whatsoever – I really do feel now like I have an alternate existence here that’s almost as vivid as the real thing. Just wish it would get less laggy!!
I noticed that there were 4 Trumpeter Swans on the 'lake' (now shrinking) across from us, and caught this one doing exercises!! LOL!!!(24-02-03-0386)

HAPPY TEDDY BEAR TUESDAY

Getting the muscle out of a razor clam is not an easy exercise as it is sticky, not easy to disconnect from the shell. This red knot knew how to do it, but as many other sandpipers and turnstones, it definitely needed a bath after the meal as parts of the flesh were sticking to its feathers.
From a few years ago when we were exercising the ghosts and old paint from an early 1900’s house restoration.

Remember your social distancing. Ruby-throated Hummingbird meets a Honey Bee in flight. Now if I could just get them to wear face masks.
Dance lime tree and church in the centre of the little village of Peesten, Franconia (Bavaria), Germany
Some background information:
The so-called dance lime tree stands in the center of the village of Peesten, next to the little church dedicated to St Mary from the 14th century and opposite the hunting château of the noble family von Giech. A dance lime tree at the same spot was already mentioned in writing in 1657, indicating that it was planted between 1550 and 1600. It survived until 1947, when it had died back because of its great age, the effects of weather, and the lack of care during World War II. In 1953, a new dance lime tree was replanted at its historic location.
A listed historical monument is the four-sided dance platform with its timber-framed superstructure, which is virtually in the tree’s "first floor". Beneath it are twelve octagonal support pillars from 1770, and it is accessible via a stone spiral staircase from 1837. The tree hall beneath the tree crown has an area of 87 square metres. The lime tree itself is a protected natural monument. The cube-shaped form of the tree crown is considered unique in Europe. In the region, lime tree festivals (in German: "Lindenkirchweihen") are an old tradition. During these festivals, young residents of the villages dance on the plattforms under their local lime trees.
With ist less than 230 residents, Peesten is a little village located in the district of Kulmbach in the Bavarian administrative region of Upper Franconia. The settlement lies about 20 km (12.5 miles) to the northwest of the city of Bayreuth and about 40 km (25 miles) to the northeast of the city of Bamberg. The name of the village is derived from the Sorbian word "pĕsčane" meaning "sandy place", which implies that it was founded by the West Slavic ethnic group of the Sorbs.
In 1295, Peesten was first mentioned in a document. For almost three centuries, the village was in possession of the knightly vassals of the family Förtsch von Thurnau. A document from 1516 reveals that two members of the noble Förtsch family, Martin and Jorg, divided their properties in Peesten, each receiving a manor and half of the village from Friedrich V, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach-Kulmbach. However, both manors were destroyed in 1553 during the Second Margrave War.
After Jorg Förtsch von Thurnau had died in 1566 and his house had become extinct, his sons-in-law Hans Georg von Giech and Johann Friedrich von Künssberg inherited his estates. Both families then divided the inheritance, with Peesten falling to the lords von Giech. In the course of the Thirty Years‘ War, the village was plundered several times by both war parties. In addition to the turmoil of war, the plague struck, almost completely depopulating Peesten. In the year 1634 alone, 103 people died, prompting the local pastor to leave the now-deserted village.
By the late 18th century, Peesten consisted of 36 properties, a church, a rectory, and a schoolhouse. Jurisdiction over the area was held by the manorial court of the noble family von Giech in the nearby little town of Thurnau, which also exercised local and municipal authority as well as lordship over all the estates. From 1797 to 1810, the village fell under the patrimonial court of Thurnau. In 1810, Peesten became part of the Kingdom of Bavaria. As part of the municipal reform of 1811, the tax district of Peesten was established, including twelve even smaller villages in the proximity.
With the Second Municipal Edict of 1818, the rural municipality of Peesten was formed. Administratively and judicially, it was assigned to the lordly court of Thurnau, and in fiscal matters to the tax office of Kulmbach. In matters of voluntary jurisdiction, almost all properties remained under the patrimonial court of Thurnau until 1848. From 1862, Peesten belonged to the Kulmbach district office. In 1976, the municipality of Peesten was finally incorporated into the town of Kasendorf.

I had a front row spot for Woman World Cup race in Mui Ne.
The athletes blitzed through the village going south, but turned around and had a little break, before going north. I actually talked to these girls on photo from Thai team as they rested.
I think this race was part of Biwase Cup, with 20 teams, mostly from Asia, taking part.

The training helps maintain readiness and sustain the long-term security assistance relationship shared between the two countries. (U.S. Air Force Photo by Master Sgt. Cohen A. Young/Released)
Not to sound too defensive, but please know that this was a completely staged shot. I certainly do not work out as often as I should, but I never use my exercise bike as a wardrobe. However, that being the cliché, I could not resist the portrayal for today’s photo.

This is on my playlist of workout songs. It has a great rhythm for bicycling!
While out for a jog, I came across these two sportspeople doing their thing in the early mourning sun. One was running into the sun while the other was cycling away from it.
A very small exercise yard at the KGB prison in Vilnius. Prisoners were only allowed 'exercise' in this tiny yard for no longer than 1 hour, 2 or 3 times a week, watched closely by the guards on a gantry above. The rest of the time they were locked in their cells .. or tortured.
WOD (thanks to GoCrossfit Nashville): 30/25/20/15/10/5 rep rounds of wall balls and knees to elbows. Wall balls coming along nicely now; think I'm about ready to upgrade from the "kiddie" ball (10 lbs) to the "girlie" ball (14 lbs). This is my first workout doing knees to elbows, and although I had a modification option set up for me I decided to stick with the real deal no matter how long it took. It took a while.
