A garden in the neighbourhood grows these beautiful poppies, they vary from a stunning blue colour to lilac, they are so delicate and very popular with those visiting this particular garden, not this year of course.
Himalayan Ibex (Capra ibex sibirica) is symbol of arid and rocky mountain of Karakoram, Hindukush and Himalayas of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.The males have heavy body, large horns, long bears and females are small body small horns.
Himalayan ibex are found at about 3,660 m to over 5,000 m height in Pakistan, in summer but these can be seen at below 2,135 m during snow fall in winter.
Wild goats are animals of mountain habitats. They are very agile and hardy, able to climb on bare rock and survive on sparse vegetation. They can be distinguished from the genus Ovis, which includes sheep, by the presence of scent glands close to the feet, in the groin, and in front of the eyes, and the absence of other facial glands, and by the presence of a beard in the males, and of hairless calluses on the knees of the forelegs.

An interesting plant we came across this afternoon: a Himalayan balsam a species of Touch Me Not (Impatiens). Also known a Bobby Tops or Policemans Helmet among other things.
Hello, dear friends! I hope all is well with all of you.
I'm back after some weeks away. The photos I'm going to post in the next days/weeks are from my recent and short trip to India, a wonderful country full of beauty and lovely people. A special mention and a big thank you to our great guide, Hari Lama, and to our kind driver, Umesh.
This photo was taken at night. These lovely animals use to appear, as soon as it gets dark, to eat some food that the hotel staff always puts outside, for them.
Chopta, Uttarakhand, India

I once saw a yeti here. No kidding. It's in my photostream from a few years back. It's a favourite short walk of mine, pretty and interesting. Lots of friendly dogs and nice people too and some thugs. I've tried encouraging others to explore its delights for themselves, but I was wasting my breath. Their loss. I'm such a good guide in this neck of the woods too where the light filters down through the beech trees. Never mind.
Dalla vetta del Pizzo Bianco 3215 m,si gode una vista impagabile sull’immensa Est del Rosa, la parete delle Alpi che più ricorda quelle Himalayane.
Alla sua sinistra la piatta cima della Punta Grober 3497 m , mentre all’estrema destra si notano la cima Jazzi 3804 m e lo Strahlhorn 4190 m

Wishing you a happy weekend!:-)
On a mountain, weather and the organisms that live there rapidly change as elevation increases. As temperatures get colder, tree species change, and then become scarcer before disappearing entirely. At the top there may be nothing but snow and ice. But even these bleak landscapes are home to a diverse array of plants and animals adapted for that environment.
Until recently, mountain habitats have been largely protected because of their inaccessibility. As people have moved into the mountains to live, for recreation and to obtain valuable resources such as timber, mountain ecosystems around the world have been subject to degradation and destruction.
