Back to the Garden of the Museum of the Republic, another species found is the domestic goose ((Anser cygnoides domesticus / Anser anser). This type of goose is part of a family of birds that includes ducks and swans.
There are more than 40 varieties of geese. Wild geese inhabit temperate regions, migrating to warmer locations during the winter.
Geese were domesticated in Ancient Egypt for meat production and feathers for making arrows.
In general, domestic geese are more active at night, and due to their territorial sense they can play guard dog functions, as mentioned about Signaler Geese. The captive bird can live up to 50 years.
Something interesting I noticed about the geese and ducks that live in the garden of the Museu da República is that everyone takes care of and protects the goose or duck chiks. So, no matter who are the parents they taking care of everyone.
This three story gristmill at Pioneer Village was built in 1817. According to the DNR, it is still used for grinding cornmeal.

Argiope bruennichi
The spider builds a spiral orb web at dawn or dusk, commonly in long grass a little above ground level, taking it approximately an hour. The prominent zigzag shape called the stabilimentum, or web decoration, featured at the centre of the orb is of uncertain function, though it may be to attract insects.
When a prey item is first caught in the web, Argiope bruennichi will quickly immobilise its prey by wrapping it in silk. The prey is then bitten and then injected with a paralysing venom and a protein-dissolving enzyme. (Wikipedia)

Wespenspinne (auch Zebraspinne, Tigerspinne oder Seidenbandspinne) - von der Unterseite
Im Schnitt benötigt eine Wespenspinne 40 Minuten für den Netzbau. Die Höhe der Netznabe liegt üblicherweise zwischen 20 und 70 cm über dem Boden. Die Höhe ist angepasst an den Lebensraum der Beutetiere. Charakteristisch für das Netz der Wespenspinne ist ein häufig sehr kräftiges, zickzackförmiges Gespinstband in vertikaler Ausrichtung ober- und unterhalb der Nabe, das sogenannte Stabiliment. Inzwischen sind weitere Formen von Stabilimenten bekannt. Es gibt zum Beispiel kreisförmige Anordnungen der Zickzacklinien um die Netzmitte herum (besonders bei Jungspinnen), nur ein Gespinstband nach unten weisend oder gar ein fehlendes Stabiliment. Diese abnormalen oder fehlenden Stabilimente deuten darauf hin, dass die ursprünglich zugeschriebene stabilisierende Wirkung für das Netz nicht primär gilt. Auch die Vermutung, dass es sich ausschließlich um eine Art Tarnung des Netzes handelt, gilt als nicht gesichert.
Beobachtungen zeigen, dass der Aufbau des Stabiliments entweder durch chemische Kontaminierung des Lebensraumes beeinflusst wird, oder durch das Alter und Geschlecht der Wespenspinnen. Männliche Spinnen weben überwiegend, bis zum Erreichen ihrer Geschlechtsreife, die häufige senkrechte Zickzacklinie über und unter der Netznabe, aber auch zirkulär verlaufende Gespinstbänder um die Mittelnabe. Ab September, Oktober scheinen die männlichen Wespenspinnen meist nur noch einarmige, nach unten gerichtete Zickzacklinien zu weben. Weibliche Wespenspinnen legen auch überwiegend die bekannte vertikale Zickzacklinie an, aber auch das ganze Jahr über kreisförmige Stabilimente. Sogar Kombinationen aus einem zirkulären Stabiliment und vertikalen zickzackförmigen Gespinstbändern wurden beobachtet. (Wikipedia)
Each rhododendron bloom is a gathered colony of small, near-identical flowers—delicate, deliberate, and designed to draw in early summer’s pollinators. Their symmetry has both function and grace.
MLC Centre architecture cannot be overlooked. With elegantly contoured, stark white concrete, white quartz and glass, the façade presents itself as a handsomely moulded sculpture.
Harry Seidler AC QBE is a luminary of Australian architecture. Widely considered as the first architect to fully express the Bauhaus aesthetic here. The MLC Centre remains one of his most definitive works on the Sydney Skyline.
244m to antenna and 227m to roof. The MLC Centre was Sydney’s tallest building in Sydney from 1977 to 1992. It is currently the fifth tallest building behind the Meriton World Tower (230m), Deutsche Bank Place (240m), Citigroup Centre (243m) and Chifley Tower (244m). The tallest structure in Sydney is still the Sydney Tower at 309m.
The name designation in the map function of Flickr is often wrong, as in this contribution. Ooijen is on the west side of the Meuse River; De Hamert on the east.
The National Park 'De Hamert' is a great place to walk in any season, even in dreary, gray winter. This area was already settled in the bronze and early iron ages; it has only been partially excavated for archaeology in order to leave finds for later generations.
The heath is grazed by Kempen Heath Sheep whose forebears - as uncovered sheep bones attest - lived here as early as the bronze age.
Looking up at the award-winning Sharp Centre for Design at OCAD University in Toronto. Although quite striking with the 12 multi-coloured, pencil-like supports, I downplayed the colour as to highlight the contrasting shapes, angles, light and textures with this capture.

These statues are part of an art exhibition in Budapest.
The New World Design for Contemporary Art presents almost 600sqm of the world of the Great War, which can be seen as the epoch that radically changed the world order of the time: the formerly stable empires have dissolved, culture and public thought have changed dramatically. World War II buried the old world, the result of a new world conflagration and then the Cold War. Europe was bleak in the twilight that the 20th century was dominated by America and Russia.
The exhibition takes visitors from happy peace to enthusiasm for war and bitter disappointment. It shows how the civilization of civilized and global warfare was fought, how the 19th century came to a standstill and the hinterland became the battlefield. The nature of war has changed: victory has now become a function of the amount of war material.

In France we say: "La fonction fait la forme". Here, one could say: "The form generates the function".
Today I headed over to Inverallochy / Cairnbulg, East of Fraserburgh to capture a shot of the decaying Sovereign BF30 Fishing Vessel that ran aground near to the Briggs light beacon. It happened on a stormy night on 18/12/05 . All crew were plucked to safety being airlifted by the RAF sea-king. For developing and Processing I used my new lightroom CC HDR merge function for the first time to try it out. It is thought that this wreck inspired the artwork for the movie "life of Pi"

Former Southern Pacific C50-9 type caboose No. 4747 is a regular on Union Pacific's LUE43 local, pictured in the heart of Salt Lake City, Utah on May 6, 2021. While its primary function is a perch for crew members to observe the track, crossings, and signals during reverse moves, the caboose still has functioning doors and windows. Check out the SP "frog eye" marker light and "flying saucer" radio antenna, still mounted to the roof.

Three levels of a rural outbuilding. Too small to be a functioning barn. Definitely too big to be just a shed. It might have been someone's house at one time in its history, but it no longer is.
Spring returns to the Fobbing Marshes. So do we. Not that we've been away much. But if recent walks in sub-zero temperatures and fog were a test of endurance we now look forward to joyous (and wet) walks in temperatures trending upwards. And with the water courses flowing things are stirring and splashing so they need investigating. I'll leave that to Freddie. "Form and Function" as my very knowledgeable Flickr friend wheres_bruce calls it. I'm just hoping my waterproof boots are as good as advertised...

This Viking boat replica gives tours around Stockholm city.
Viking ships functioned as the centerpiece of Scandinavian culture for centuries. Scandinavia is a region with easy access to coastal ports. Consequently, trade routes primarily operated via shipping, as inland trading was both hazardous and cumbersome. Viking kingdoms thus developed into coastal cities, all of which were deeply dependent on the North Sea for survival and development.
Control of the waterways was then of critical importance, and consequently the most advanced war ships were in high demand. In fact, because of their overwhelming importance, ships became a mainstay of the Viking pagan religion, as they evolved into symbols of power and prowess.

Walter Schrempf's blueprint of the building was the winner of an architecture competition in the year 1963. Then, he invited Otto Herbert Hajek to reshape his draft artificially to overcome the comtemporary paradigmatic sobriety of the 1960's. The realisation of the building started in 1966, after Hajek had presented his version to the commission of the university.
The result of the architect’s and sculptor’s collaboration is a functional modern architecture, which opens up to the technical age and uses new materials, and is also a space sculpture at the same time. Naked concrete contrasts with a vivid coloration through yellow, red and blue surfaces. Geometric elements, which are arranged like a box, determine the spatial effect. The interior is divided by plastic concrete elements in various large levels and units.
The building has been built as a "Student House" in which all services for the students are included: dining hall, administration for the students services like financial support, recreational facility, theatre hall, café, event room. All these functions are still existing today.
The building is a historical monument.

Looking great in fresh paint, veteran S317 leads container train 1845 through Lithgow past the last-built member of the 81 class, 8184, in October 2015.
Streamlined bulldog and good looker S317 was about to turn 54 years old, while functional 8184, the newest of its class, was a youngish 24. The first of each class entered service in 1957 and 1982 respectively. 8184 was one of four additional 81 class built several years after the rest.
