On our walk through Hisley Woods last Sunday we passed an old farm yard with some lovely stone buildings. A few minutes later we encountered an awful smell on the way and almost stepped into the decaying carcass of a large badger...
Looking across Sydney harbour at twilight towards Barangaroo (right) and the Walsh Bay Wharf Precinct (left).
Viewed from the 'higher ground' of the Blues Point Reserve.
Up the sandstone steps from the more popular harbour-level, to the forested area beneath the shadow of the Blues Point Tower.
Photographed at dusk last Sunday, 13th October, 2024.
Here's Stevie Wonder with the orginal, and arguably the best. version of 'Higher Ground', though there are some pretty cool 'cover' versions:

Higher, in the valley of Planica the creek which flows there soon disappears under gravel. Only here, near Rateče, where valley bottom is made of clay rests of an ancient lake, water comes out again - as crystal clear sources of Sava river. This small marsh land is protected as a natural reserve and arranged for tourist visit.

We are having an exceptionally mild Winter!
The higher you get, the more arid it gets, less vegetation except for coarse grass (YORKSHIRE-FOG/Holcus-lanatus} and some strong wildflowers and a lone tree...
Drystone walls are, with hedgerows, one of the most commonly used field boundaries in England, and help create what we now regard as the traditional pattern of field and lanes so evocative of rural England.
While hedgerows are most common in the Lowland Zone, drystone walling is most often found in the Upland, Zone.
It defines the landscape of Yorkshire, cuts the land like endless veins.
The story I was told was that they were loose stone because of the wind, now 'whistling' through..
The roots of drystone walling as a method of enclosing fields lie at least as far back as the Iron Age.
Have a lovely day and thank you for viewing, M, (*_*

Limited material to work with but a break in the weather made it all the more desirable to just play and make something anyway.
I tried in vain to balance the lower stones to meet with the top ones. I guess I would have if I'd have stayed with it longer, but then I decided that they make more of a statement by not going that high anyway.

The impressive Tymphe mountain range, as seen from one of its lower peaks.
Noticeable is the Dragon - lake, an everlasting lake whose water emanates from deep inside the earth and the snow melting during the hot season.
The peak of the Tymphe mountain range is seen on the far left, shaded under the clouds and is called Gamila (2497m).
All part of the main "spinal" mountain range of northern Greece, Pindus.
Also to be seen the Vasilitsa mountain on the far left and Astraka peak hiding on the rear to the back of the frame.
This is a close up of the same group of deer as in the previous photo. With a Stag and his hareem high on the Northern slopes of Stac Pollaidh with the full expanse of Loch Sionsgaig and Suilven stretching out beyond. We turned this small group of Red Deer out as we climbed up the higher stages on our final approach to the summit of Stac Polly, they moved down slightly away from us with the Stag standing illuminated by the morning sun with his hinds remaining mostly in the shadow of the mountain. He let go a couple of bellows and we could hear other stags in the distance bellowing in reply, the rut nearing it end in late October.
TGIF right? Let me end this week with an amazing color burst at the gold coast of Chicago. Morning light was great! What do you think?

A sheepfold is a so-called deep litter and serves as a shelter for sheep that grazed the heather. The sheep today often lie on straw, but previously heather layers were used for this. The sheep then defecate on the straw / heather layers and because they walk in the fold, the straw or sods mix with the manure. This farmyard manure is very fertile and used to be used for the fields in the area. The use of this manure made the fields higher and higher.
The sheep of a sheepfold generally graze the heath around the sheepfold under the care of a shepherd. This form of natural landscape management ensures that the heathlands are preserved and do not mature with grass, shrubs and trees and eventually become forest.
The authentic look of a sheepfold makes most sheepfolds a tourist attraction in the region. It is often stated where the sheep are at the moment and when they will return to the fold under the direction of the shepherd.
End of year cleaning of files, I ran across this one of Mizuki. High as the lead would allow, and she still wanted to go higher.
