Iniciaba el camino de regreso a casa cuando vi este gato plácidamente acostado. Era apariencia solamente. Lo tenía encuadrado en mi cámara para hacerle una foto decidiendo si disparaba o no poque no llebaba el teleobjetivo montado. Iba a ser una de esas fotos que no dicen nada, otro gato tumbado. Súbitamente, el gato salta con una potencia increíble; intuyo que va a cazar, una paloma me digo a mi mismo aunque yo no la había visto. Un segundo salto increíble hacia adelante para impulsarse para el tercer salto, momento en el que disparo la cámara para recoger el momento en que aterriza pegado a la paloma que yo no había visto impidiendo que pudiese escapar...
The original obelisk was made of bronze and installed about 1859. It was stolen by horse packers. This is the replacement.
This one gave us a good long look before going about his business. It was a few days before everything turned white.
This little guy wanted in on all the action, he just wanted to play with us, it was the cutest thing. My son Reece loves all bugs and animals, for some reason they gravitate towards him! Unfortunately he is allergic to everything, so we can not have pets in our home. So when I see him enjoying little moments like this with little critters it just makes my heart smile because he is just so happy!

"The Friendly Giant is a popular Canadian children's television program that aired on CBC Television from September 1958 through to March 1985. It featured three main characters: a giant named Friendly (played by Bob Homme), who lived in a huge castle, along with his puppet animal friends Rusty (a rooster who played a harp and lived in a book bag hung by the castle window) and Jerome (a giraffe). The two principal puppets were manipulated and voiced by Rod Coneybeare." - Wikipedia

Another trip to WWT Slimbridge, Gloucestershire at the end of January.
Weather was bright and sunny.
A immature male Tufted Duck appears to give me a Wave from the Tack Piece Lagoon.
The Tufted Duck is a medium-sized diving duck, smaller than a Mallard. It's black on the head, neck, chest and back, and white on the sides. It has a small crest and a yellow eye. In flight it shows an obvious white stripe across the back of the wing.

The Friendly Arm
As promised after the last poll, here is another
beautiful small castle 1 discovered during my trip
across the French countryside. The spectacle of
the golden foliage in the first light is simply
magical, and these picturesque villages are like
something out of a romantic painting or a fantasy
novel. I hope you're enjoying my new
photographic journey
Initially these cows were up the top of the hill. I’d hoped for a lovely shot of the mountains with the cows in the foreground. As soon as I hopped out of the car to snap them, the entire herd came running down to the fence and ruined the shot Just outside of Methven
Bicycle friendly
Bicycles are more common than cars in downtown Copenhagen, a stark contrast to most [all?] Canadian cities. Postal deliveries and couriers (DHL and Amazon) are all made by bicycle (in central Copenhagen). During the morning and evening commuting hours we observed bicycle traffic jams at major intersections. We were also surprised at the speed and apparent nonchalance of the cyclists, the majority of whom sped by us in the rain, on cobblestone, and without helmets. Woe be the tourist who steps out into the bike lane without looking!

“Copenhagen has earned a reputation as one of the most—possibly the most—bicycle-friendly city in the world. Every day 1.2 million kilometres (0.75 million miles) are cycled in Copenhagen, with 62% of all citizens commuting to work, school or university by bicycle; in fact, almost as many people commute by bicycle in greater Copenhagen as do those who cycle to work in the entire United States. Cycling is generally perceived as a healthier, more environmentally friendly, cheaper, and often quicker way to get around town than by public transport or car.”
