Another shot from after the marathon. I've really started to notice all the Vespas all over the city.
Euphorbia epithymoides is commonly known as cushion spurge.
It is a plant of the Euphorbiaceae family. Its habitats are Libya, Turkey and East, Middle, and Southeast Europe.
The flowers are pale green with a yellow centre and are often surrounded by leaves colored like petals, called bracts, which look like flowers. The white sap can irritate skin and eyes, and is sometimes poisonous to humans and some animals. Requires good soil drainage and full sun.

A spectacular fall day. Loads of birds in the yard, but there are still a couple of frogs in my pond which gave me some photo ops.

...pronounced as if we were saying drinn driinn!
Since a cold was flirtling with me all day yesterday - tried hard to keep my chin up! -causing ugly headacahe, inabitlity to concertrate and tireness, setting the table for dinner and preparing it was the most creative part of the day. Sad but true.
Green salad is full with vitamin C, so some fresh came form the grocery store, hoping to give my organism a positive boost...and it did....I have today to completely recover, as we are leaving for a short trip, on a long weekend tomorrow...and the sun will be coming out in this part of the world! Yay : )!
El Golfo - The green Lake. Bacteria in the water has turned this lake a shade of green.
This is a natural amphitheater which is open towards the sea, and was formed by a volcanic eruption in 1730. The lagoon that fills the bottom of the semicircle-shaped crater, is a result of floods, and the green color is from algae that live in the lagoon. This lake has been declared a nature reserve, and it is therefore swimming is not permitted here. El Golfo is located in the southern part of the Lanzarote in the municipality of Yaiza.
On the way up to the lake from the village there are tables where you can buy green rocks containing the mineral olivine. It is this together with the algae that gives the water the spectacular green color it has.
Similar to a shot posted in December. In this shot if you look very carefully you can see a person in a red top at the very far end of the lake.
A slight HDR treatment has been applied to this photo. NOt everyone's cup of tea I know, but I prefered it that way on this shot.

Mossy branches and green leaves above, and ferns lining the sides of a verdant path through Southwick Wood.
Too bad--it looks like the countertop and backsplash tile was redone, and the dividing line is obvious. And it's too bluish to go with those beautiful green floor tiles.
A Common Green Shieldbug nymph (Palomena prasina) on a grass inflorescence. It was shot in the field in situ, and the green background is a plantain leaf held behind to prevent a black background with the flash.

Juvenile european green woodpecker (Picus viridis) on a tree.
As I was going through the park, looking for birds to photograph, one term was ringing in my head for some reason: „Picus viridis”, scientific name for green woodpecker. And then words turned into flesh, and this youngster landed on a tree. I wish things always worked like this!
Młody dzięcioł zielony (Picus viridis) na drzewie.
Gdy szedłem przez park, szukając ptaków do sfotografowania, z niewiadomych powodów po głowie krążyła mi jedna nazwa: „Picus viridis”, naukowa nazwa dzięcioła zielonego. I nagle słowo stało się ciałem, gdy ten młodzian wylądował na drzewie. Szkoda, że nie dzieje się tak zawsze.
The transparent orange/green ants can glow in the sun like little gems. Their complex social behaviour and ability to combine forces (literally) in order to pull large leaves together to weave a nest is awe inspiring.
This major worker usues all its body language to make clear that it will defend what’s behind it by all means. The raised green abdomes, the wide stance, and the fully open jaws leave no room for misunderstanding. Behind it seemed to have been a kind of transfer station where something is passed mouth to mouth to the workers dedicated to a new nest project.

Green fly - Was not getting any bug to photograph on this particular day and was unhappy... Then saw this little creature... on the leaf. Above my head's height. Stretched my tripod and kept elbow on it and tried to shoot.. Leaf was moving due to slight wind... but got a manageable shot.. The bug looked too good through the lens :-) Hope you enjoyed the shot... Kenko extension tubes + 100mm macro lens .
