This is the finale of my experiment.

 

Just a silly joke - please excuse me Martin. I hope you have more humor than my full grown potatoes.

Greetings Rolf

Why does Home Grown Friut and Vegtables taste so much Better than shop bought ? ............

Mute Swan m. (Cygnus olor)

 

Mrs Mute Swan and the kids were paddling around, searching for tasty morsels, when this magnificent father swan serenely raised his head from the water, and looked directly at me. An extremely personal moment, I felt.

 

I’m always thrilled to see these incredibly beautiful creatures, and, this day was wonderfully sunny and the light was just lovely.

“Unwearied still, lover by lover,

They paddle in the cold

Companionable streams or climb the air;

Their hearts have not grown old;

Passion or conquest, wander where they will,

Attend upon them still.”

Grew up often doing things the hard way.

Haven't grown out of it, I think.

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR VIEWS, COMMENTS AND FAVES

VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!

Barn owl profile.

This is one of the two barn owls that were hand raised last summer of the falconers of the wildlife park Eekholt.

And: I don't like Comment-Codes, "awards", or such groups. They will be deleted. Explanation at my profile. Also please don't post pictures in the commenting-area. You could post them much better in your own photo stream. Your own words will mean much more to me than a universal-text. ;-D

This photo is part of a series of four photos. I photographed these mushrooms in a few days. They grow very quickly and 'live' very short. The other photos can be found in the comments with an addition when they were taken in relation to this photo.

 

Thanks for your visit and comments! Would you like to use my photo on the web or print? Just ask :-)

The Spaulding Grist Mill

South Street, Townsend Harbor, MA

The grinding stones of this mill were driven by a horizontal wheel powered by water from the Squannacook River. The mill processed corn and grain grown by local farmers until it closed in the 1920s. It is currently closed to the public while under repair.

This was near the end of the clouds cycle, as it grew a little more then died, as quickly as it began. Amazing to see, was a matter of minutes. The moon brought out some cool colors and allowed me too watch the process!

It seemed for about a week, that I couldn't spot a mantis, and I was confused as to whether they relocated, died...or possibly ate each other ;-) The past couple of days, I've realized why they were hard to spot...and I'm sure you can guess from the image. After their last...and possibly final molt, most have changed color. Out of the 4 I found in one area, 2 were all pale brown, one was a combination of brown/green...like this male here...and one was all green, but with brown accents. When I looked around, and noticed how much of the brush is already changing, I could see how a more brown appearance helps them blend. Whereas in spring and early summer, when everything was lush and green, their bright green color was better camouflage.

The next difference....wings! Yes...we now have flying stick figures floating around our yard lol. But I found the wings covering the abdomen was making it difficult to determine gender. So with research and more watching, I found both genders have wings. But the females, being larger, with the thicker, heavier abdomens, do not fly, and therefore have wings that are just about the length of their body. Whereas the lighter, narrower males sport longer wings that are a little longer then their abdomen, and are the ones that are seen flying, usually to find a mate...of course ;-)

And they've grown much bigger! No more are they the little bitty green aliens I was used to holding. But I've found these larger, more intimidating mantises are just as friendly, and even try and climb on my camera when I get it close lol. So my mantis study continues ;-) Please view large.

 

The kids are going back to school in a couple of days, so being loaded with back to school arrangements and activities, this will probably be my last post for the week, but I'll be stopping by to check in with everyone. Have a wonderful week, my friends :-)

An old barn, almost disappearing in the greenery

Helianthus annuus, the common sunflower, is a large annual forb of the genus Helianthus is grown as a crop for its edible oil and edible fruits. It is a genus of plants comprising about 70 species. Except for three species in South America, all Helianthus species are native to North America and Central America. The species H. annuus typically grows during the summer and into early fall, with the peak growth season being mid-summer. Perennial sunflower species are not as common in garden use due to their tendency to spread rapidly and become invasive. Sunflowers are usually tall annual or perennial plants that in some species can grow to a height of 300 cm or more. They bear one or more wide, terminal capitula (flower heads), with bright yellow ray florets at the outside and yellow or maroon (also known as a brown/red) disc florets inside. 28624

Just because I like them.

I got a good look at the family of Egyptian geese today whose photo I posted earlier (see the link in the comments). They were tiny fluff balls one month ago, and now they seem almost grown up :-))

Have a wonderful weekend everybody!

Homegrown fenugreek sprouts.HMM!

 

Actually Silke wanted to use the sprouts for her photo, but instead she chose "Eye of the Cyclon" for today's theme, a very good decision!

 

HMM Sprossen vom Bockshornklee !!!

 

Eigentlich wollte Silke die Sprossen für ihr Foto einsetzen, sie hat sich statt dessen zum heutigen Thema für "Eye of the Cyclon" entschieden, eine sehr gute Entscheidung!

  

En fait, Silke voulait utiliser les germes pour sa photo, mais elle a plutôt choisi "Eye of the Cyclon" pour le thème d'aujourd'hui, une très bonne décision!

A Happy Macro Monday, Everyone! Have a great week ahead!

 

En realidad Silke quería usar los brotes para su foto, pero en vez de eso eligió "Ojo del Ciclón" para el tema de hoy, ¡una muy buena decisión!

 

Na verdade, Silke queria usar os botões para sua foto, mas, em vez disso, escolheu "Eye of the Cyclone" para o tema de hoje, uma decisão muito boa!

I am surprised it never got to 100 faves.

It is still #5.

It's Macro Monday, theme is vegetable. Tried some zuccini pictures, they show what I think of Zuccini 😁...and salad, but the cats ate it before I could make a picture...so I ended up with a Litchee. Tried hard to make it a vegetable...no way...

  

Some species are grown as ornamental plants. For example, the hardy Physalis alkekengi has edible small fruits but is most popular for its large, bright orange to red husks.

 

I don’t know about you, but hmmm, every season has its charms? Each their colours… not that Spring doesn’t have orange or Summer doesn’t have reds, I think it much lies in the ‘combination’ of colours? And this here is pure Autumn! A few Physalis… et voila, Autumn in the studio.

Have a lovely w-e.

Thank you for your comments and time, M, (*_*)

In Mrs Foster's garden. Thank you: Never met the Lady, Spousal person was ordered to find suitable subject:)

That's a shot of one of our four cats named Trixie (since she is tricolored). Apart from the light, the bokeh and the flare, I really like her pose since this turned out to be almost exactly the same pose as in the image I took a year before. She is such a cutie, although she is the most diva-like cat in the bunch and only occasionally wants to be petted :) Hope you like it!

Marvelous details grown here. Two of my robot photos melded with difference filter...SHAZAAM!!! Working to bring back the excitement of bright colored action comics of the 1950s feeling.

On our way back from Laguna Lejía, green grasses had grown in the desert thanks to the melting of the snow that had fallen a few hours earlier on our way in.

 

The small dry lake in the foreground is located 8 km (5 mi) west of Laguna Lejía.

The mountain behind it is Cerro Negro de Barriales (4665 m).

Laguna Lejía (Bleach Lagoon) is a salt lake in the Atacama Desert.

It is located in the Chilean Altiplano, in the Antofagasta Region,

100 km (62 mi) southeast of San Pedro de Atacama,

at an altitude of 4325 m (14,200 ft).

Jonathan and I went here yesterday in the hope of some snow left and there was...unfortunately we got delayed in heavy traffic and it was almost dark but the dogs had fun.

This is another case for old photos'. This exact shot is no longer possible because over the last 14 years the trees and hedges have grown and the winding house to the old Bestwood Pit can't be seen :(
