It's definitely not the case that I've been wearing anything different than normal for the past few months, but this winter I've really not felt enthusiastic to go outside to do photos for w_r! This is the only space I have inside the house that has adequate space to take one (without actually standing on chairs/tables/beds), and due to the multitudes of books, etc. that have been littered all over my bedroom floor, there hasn't even been room here!
Anyway. This problem is entirely solved with this cheerful it's-not-winter-lalala-I-can't-see-the-snow-lalala ensemble. In retrospect, I believe that I may have dressed up as a packet of Salta Katten. Om nom nom.

I never knew I had a favorite puddle! But the ice structures in this puddle made me take a very different photo at the Storr one cold morning. Ansell Adams called this kind of thing an extract, rather than an abstract. Possibly the only time his name will be mentioned in relation to my images!!!!

Im Winter herrscht in Veere angenehme Ruhe!
Heerlijk rustig in Veere 's winters!
We fired up both convertibles, over the weekend, backed them outside, and let them run for awhile. The weather has been nice, but we have not had enough rain to wash the road salt off of the streets & highways, so they won't be going anywhere just yet.
A lizard emerging from hibernation on one of the first really sunny days of 2018. Photographed last Thursday on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, I can't honestly say whether this is a native Common Lizard (Zootoca vivipara) or an alien Wall Lizard (Podarcis muralis). Both species live on Portland. Both can vary considerably in colour. The key differences seem to concern size and the shape of the head and in this instance I don't have sufficient knowledge to judge one way or another.
EDIT : Years later, I reckon this is a Wall Lizard. Happy to be corrected!
Ever have one of those weeks? You know, the kind where on Friday night you just want to climb in bed and stay there for the entire weekend?
Monday I had a very long 24 hour shift that included a woman who was 36 weeks pregnant with a boy and had 4 daughters at home. She came in because the baby wasn't moving as much as it usually did throughout the day and after our exam we had to tell her that her son was dead, but still inside her. And that we were sorry about that but we wouldn't be able to get her dead child out of her for a couple hours because she had eaten dinner and it wouldn't be safe for her from an anesthesia perspective.
That was Monday. The middle of the week had the average daily frustrations of working in a busy OR in a big city and being mildly sleep deprived.
Friday was capped off with the cutest 10 year old girl I've every seen. Smart and just a little fire cracker. A few years ago she had cancer invade the bone around her eye, so they took it out and built her a new orbital wall with bone graft. The scar is in her hairline and you'd never know. Now her cancer is back and invading the bone graft so we had to go back in and do it all again. For 4 hours I watched as the surgeon parted her hair and made his incision from one ear to the other, over the top of her head and then peel her face off so that he could work his magic.
I have a list so long of things I am grateful for. This week was a good reminder of just how lucky I am. I hope you all are lucky, too. And if you're not, my heart goes out to you.

Horseshoe bats (family Rhinolophidae) are a large family of bats including approximately 130 species grouped in 10 genera. They belong to the suborder Microchiroptera (microbats). The Rhinolophidae family is sometimes divided into two families, the Rhinolophidae (horse-shoe bats) and Hipposideridae (Old World leaf-nosed bats). There is little question that these two groups of bats are closely related, but current practise is to classify them as subfamilies (Hipposiderinae and Rhinolophinae) in a single family. Many species are extremely difficult to distinguish. All rhinolophids have leaf-like protuberances on their noses. In rhinolophines species, these take the shape of a horseshoe; in hipposiderine, they are leaf- or spear-like. They emit echolocation calls through these structures, which may serve to focus the sound. Most rhinolophids are dull brown or reddish brown in color. They vary in size from small to moderately large. from wikipedia......taken in Keloglan Cave,Denizli/Turkey without flash while they were hibernating.
