Fauna in the Comarnic Cave is represented by 123 terrestrial species (5 of which are bat species) from 24 families and 4 aquatic species. These species can be found throughout the cave, but mainly in the active and temporary active (sub-fossil) galleries or near the seven entrances.
I found myself outside before sunrise in the winter. It's shocking, but true! So, I went home and grabbed my camera.

This week Widget has been secreting himself in hidden places, like the back of the wardrobe or inside a cardboard box. This desire to hide occurs from time to time. It often coincides with losing a fight with the large, aggressive black cat that roams the neighbourhood.
This cute little guy seemed to have dug himself out of his summer hole. Finally we had rain and he was able to dig himself out and have a swim!!! (I assume)
I found a couple of bats hibernating in the rafters of my old work shop out in Elk River Valley near Port Orford. (Curry County, Oregon)
Winter running in the Yorkshire Dales could be a challenge and so the Rylston Light had two heavy drift ploughs: No2 sleeps the summer away.e canal near Kellingley Colliery
he spent most of the afternoon wandering around the property foraging. I thought he was suppsoed to be in hibernation? It's minus 5 centigrade here right now!
I'm sleeping in today. Mabye all day, it's my first day off in over a week, and I plan on catching up on some much needed sleep.
Submitted for the Monthly Scavenger Hunt - "hibernation"
i lifted a stone looking for spiders and found this caterpillar in the gravel, may be hibernating, i put the stone back gently
It is a sorrowful thing is it not?
when summer comes to pass
with cruel winds and driving rain
unleashed upon our paths
The trees do bare their barren souls
like blankets their leaves create a warmth
no longer basking in the summer's sun
but huddled close about their feet
The wind howls, for no man dare to wonder
and the treachery of a driving storm
brings blackened angry thunder
And yet deep inside us waits to greet
a passion so intense and strong
for is it not a creature hidden
to be unsuspectingly sprung upon?
Alas the snows have now begun
wrap warmly, keep safe and stay inside
for not before you have kissed good night
with snuggle-down cosiness can you hide
It is a sorrowful thing is not?
when summer comes to pass!

I almost didn’t post this composition, because I’m really on the fence about it… I call it Boreal Hibernation, because it’s obvious the grasses are all dead and the tree has no leafs left, and it was a very atmospheric day with tons of fog, but I’m not over the moon about it.
If you haven’t guessed, I’ve been in a creative rut for the better part of January, maybe because the conditions and light in my neck of the woods have been, to be blunt, piss poor :/
Let me know if you think this comp makes the cut in the comments down below!
