A different perspective on one of the most famous lakes in Canada, Peyto Lake.

 

The outlet waters from this iconic lake form the Mistaya river, creating a beautiful chasm on it's way to the North Saskatchewan River. A few pics of the river in comments.

 

The last Friday of the year is here. 2016 sure whizzed bye fast.....

During a recent visit to the San Diego Zoo, I found this colorful fellow vocalizing complaints about another of his clan snatching away a bit of food. Brought a smile as I reminisced about similar mealtime altercations that occurred during my days at the Fire Station.

The Red-tailed Monkey:

 

Red-tailed monkeys are found in East and Central Africa. These monkeys live in tropical moist forests, swamp forest, riverine and gallery forest.

 

Red-tailed monkeys eat leaves, flowers, or insects in times where fruit is scarce. As they forage, these monkeys gather their findings in the expandable cheeks of their mouths. The pouches will hold a large amount of food where they can forage in one area and then carry their food away to another location where it is safe to consume without the threat of another stealing from them.

 

Red-tailed monkeys are social primates that form groups that can range in size from 7 to 30 individuals. The groups consist of one dominant male and females and their offspring. Groups generally stay together through all periods of the day and through life, except for males who reach maturity. These males will leave the group they were born into and go on to form all male groups with other red-tailed monkey males or survive alone until they can replace the dominant male of a different social group. Females in a group will help take care of their own young as well as the young of other females in the group.

LE CULTE DE LA ROSE**

 

Célébrant une fleur,c'est un hymne à la femme

Que Bécaud a chanté avec toute son âme.

Suscitant le désir, elle engendre la vie,

Quand, semblable à la rose, elle s'épanouit.

 

Déesse de l'amour, fascinante et féconde,

Elle est indispensable à la survie du monde.

Èros, dieu puissant qui incarnait l'amour

Agit, différemment, sans doute, de nos jours.

 

Cette splendide fleur que l'on appelle rose,

Doit être protégée, en bouton ou éclose.

Des hommes la célèbrent et vantent ses attraits,

Pour vénérer la femme en des rites secrets.

 

La rose est l'important,nous affirma Bécaud.

Il loua cette fleur symbolique, tout haut.

Elle nous apparaît,reine par sa beauté

Et déesse accomplie de la fécondité.

Snowy Egret

 

From Cornell:

 

Highly social all year long, Snowy Egrets forage with gulls, terns, ibises, and other herons, and they nest in colonies alongside many other species, including Great Egrets, night-herons, Glossy Ibises, Little Blue Herons, Tricolored Herons, Cattle Egrets, and Roseate Spoonbills.

La Dent de Jaman no. DSC_6487.

The Dent de Jaman is a mountain (1875 m) above Montreux, situated north of the Rochers de Naye.

La dent de Jaman est un sommet des préalpes vaudoises situé à 1 875 mètres d'altitudes, dans le canton de Vaud, en Suisse.

 

Ses contours sont atypiques dans cette région préalpine. La forme générale de la dent de Jaman, de par ses falaises abruptes sur son versant occidental, présente l'aspect d'une canine géante vue depuis le lac Léman. Un sentier assez exposé permet d'atteindre relativement facilement son sommet par le versant oriental. Des groupes de chamois peuplent ses coteaux.

 

Une crête part de la dent de Jaman, passe par le Merdasson et rejoint les rochers de Naye.

 

La dent de Jaman est en outre le symbole d'une troupe de scouts de Montreux, la « troupe de Jaman ».

 

En hiver, les skieurs bénéficient d'un téléski pour profiter d'une piste de 1,86 km de long.

  

Die Dent de Jaman ist ein Berg in den Berner Alpen oberhalb von Montreux zwischen den Rochers de Naye und dem Pass Col de Jaman. Seine höchste Stelle befindet sich auf 1'875 m ü. M.. Südlich unterhalb des Berges befindet sich die Station de Jaman einer Zahnradbahn, die von der Transports Montreux–Vevey–Riviera betrieben wird.

 

Die Form ist untypisch für die voralpine Region, die westliche Wand fällt steil in Richtung des Genfersees ab. Von der Station de Jaman kann der exponierte Gipfel über einen steilen Pfad erreicht werden.

Junto al lago de Ercina forman los llamados Lagos de Covadonga (Asturias).

Son lagos de formación glaciar.

Al fondo de la fotografía observamos el valle glaciar en forma de U y el lago Enol sería la cabecera del glaciar.

It is well known that the lakes in the Upper Engadine freeze at an altitude around 1800 metres in winter, and I wanted to experience this for myself. I travelled there in mid-February in the most beautiful weather - and it was far too warm for the time of year! But the Lake Sils was frozen and I - like many others - hiked across it to the mouth of the Aua da Fedoz. There, however, the lake was open and formed gorgeous ice sculptures. I just had to make sure that the ice under my feet was stable enough, a cold bath would have been a bit unpleasant...

 

Es ist bekannt, dass die Seen im Oberengadin auf rund 1800 Meter im Winter gefrieren, und das wollte ich einmal selber erleben. Mitte Februar bin ich bei schönstem Wetter hingereist - und es war viel zu warm für die Jahreszeit! Doch der Silsersee war zugefroren und ich bin - wie viele andere auch - darüber gewandert bis zur Flussmündung der Aua da Fedoz. Dort war der See allerdings offen und bildete wunderschöne Eisskulpturen. Ich musste beim Fotografieren nur gut aufpassen, dass das Eis unter meinen Füssen stabil genug war, ein kaltes Bad wäre etwas unangenehm gewesen...

Con la marea subiendo, la playa de Buelna ve cubierto gran parte de su arenal. Hay pocos bañistas.

 

Bueno, en realidad cuando nos acercamos por ahi había bastantes mas, pero luego comprobamos que el monstruo en forma de dragón de roca de la derecha los había devorado.

 

A lo largo del oriente de Asturias encontramos diversos arenales, pequeñitos, encantadores, como este junto al pueblo de Buelna.

 

Muchísimas gracias a los amigos de flickr por sus amables visitas, comentarios y premios a estas imágenes.

This beautiful rhododendron flower wasn’t formed to a fascinating sculpture by the rain. These are dewdrops collected on the petals during the night. Together with this soft and diffuse morning light its producing a impressive look, in my opinion.

 

Diese wunderschöne Rhododendron Blüte wurde nicht etwa vom Regen zu einer faszinierenden Skulpur umgewandelt. Dies sind Taudropfen, der sich über Nacht auf den Blättern gesammelt haben. Zusammen mit dem weichen und diffusen Morgenlicht ergibt das eine beeindruckenden Anblick, finde ich.

Sui monti che circondano la conca d'Alpago è scesa la prima neve. E' una neve tardoautunnale; sono veli leggeri ed effimeri che avranno beve durata. Eppure essi rivestono la montagna di fascino e ne alleggeriscono l'immagine cupa e massiccia. Grazie ai primi veli di vene, infatti, la montagna rivela tutta se stessa, tutte le sue asperità, le sue forme, i suoi anfratti. Come una signora che offre d'improvviso tutta la sua bellezza ..... ..

Antelope Canyon was formed by erosion of Navajo Sandstone, primarily due to flash flooding and secondarily due to other sub-aerial processes. Rainwater, especially during monsoon season, runs into the extensive basin above the slot canyon sections, picking up speed and sand as it rushes into the narrow passageways. Over time the passageways eroded away, making the corridors deeper and smoothing hard edges in such a way as to form characteristic 'flowing' shapes in the rock.
