“If pain must come, may it come quickly. Because I have a life to live, and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him.”

 

― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

If feeding conditions is good the capacious throat sac is used to engulf whole shoals of fish. This large waterbird is often found swimming in flocks in shallow lowland lakes and river deltas. Native to south-east Europe.

If you've ever seen the dirt flying when a Badger is digging a den or after some underground prey, now you know what they use to get the job done.

... if the summer comes to an end now so slowly. One feels already sometimes how the nature prepares for it. Has found some sentences in addition:

  

The darkness

begins again earlier

and smokier breathes

the wilted nature.

The foliage covers

rustling the ways,

the autumn already signs

his coloured track.

Still summer

and, nevertheless, already past.

In the morning as a white frost ends

the fog in the grass.

At noon seems

still the warming sun,

if she transforms him

in pearls of glass.

...sang about New York,

that this city never sleeps,

this applies to Frankfurt as a whole and

Not at all. Frankfurt likes to sleep

and a lot. But if you kiss it awake,

then it's off.

You just have to know how. Frankfurt

you have to touch a thousand times until

it eventually zooms in.

 

The financial metropolis Frankfurt in the moonlight

thanks for looking...

 

Wenn Sinatra....

....über New York sang,

dass diese Stadt niemals schlafe,

so gilt das für Frankfurt ganz und

gar nicht. Frankfurt pennt gerne

und viel. Doch wenn man es wach küsst,

dann geht es ab.

Man muss halt wissen wie. Frankfurt

muss man tausendmal berühren, bis

es irgendwann 'Zoom' macht.

danke fürs schauen....

For Smile on Saturday - Bee-autiful

 

If there is one place that is famous in the Seine-Maritime region, it is Saint-Georges de Boscherville Abbey. Its Romanesque style and authentic setting give it a very special charm. It is the result of a perfect blend of nature, art and history. Its roots are ancient, and it was built on a sacred site whose origin dates back to Gallo-Roman times.

If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere...Van Gogh

SMALL dumpy wader that is associated with coastal habitats. Feeds by running along sand, gravel or estuarine mud as if powered by clockwork and then standing still for a second, to pick up food from the ground. Seen from the sea wall Reculvers, where their was a flock of about 20.

THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND, and leaving a comment, will look forward to doing the same on your latest posting!

Keep a smile on your face and love in your heart for everyone

May God bless and keep you...........................................Tomx.

COUNT your blessings, name them one by one, and you will be surprised what the good LORDs done.!

If you did not see Prague yet, you really should. What a magnificent city! You can see the Natuonal Theatre in the background and just above it the moon which was full. Such luck for us!

KEEP LOOKING!

Happy Tuesday

 

If you decide to travel along this highway into the bowels of the Universe, carry enough fuel to cover the billions of light years ahead of you. You won't find a place to refuel. When you have travelled this distance without finding anything, not even a little bit of intelligent life and you reach the far reaches of the Universe... don't be scared... there's nothing there, either. Only the "nothing". Or since everything is cyclical, perhaps you have returned to the place where you started, full of wisdom from your long trip. It's probably better to look for intelligent life on Earth, but it's also very likely that you'll have a hard time finding it. Don't worry about not understanding the Universe or the reason for its existence... you're not Einstein, but one day you'll understand that... The Universe is wounded, but it still has infinity ahead of it. It still has you and me. Merry Christmas to all and to the infinite Universe that is within you.

 

Gregory Alan Isakov - The Universe

 

Y el Universo está susurrando tan suavemente que puedo oírlo todo... el zumbido de los insectos, todos los taxis, todo el cambio gastado de los vagabundos, todos los chicos jugando a la pelota en los callejones. Son sólo pliegues en su vestido. El Universo, está herido, pero aún tiene el infinito por delante. Todavía nos tiene a ti y a mí. Y todos dicen que es hermoso. Y todos dicen...

Music for your trip to the Universe:

 

David Bowie - Space Oddity

Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom. Take your protein pills and put your helmet on. Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)... Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)... Check ignition and may God's love be with you (two, one, liftoff...)

 

Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts VI–IX

"Shine On You Crazy Diamond", was written as a tribute to Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd. He was also known as "The Crazy Diamond Syd". Barrett was a very creative musician and is considered one of the rock icons, with a strong influence on many artists, very especially to David Bowie. Syd Barrett is a key piece to understand the evolution of rock in the 70s.. Excessive drug use, especially LSD, caused him serious mental health problems. Syd Barrett died in 2006 at the age of 60. Always shine diamond.

 

Blur - The Universal

The Universal is a science fiction song written as a tribute to two films by film director Stanley Kubrick. In the video, the Blur members wear outfits similar to Alex and his gang of thugs, the protagonists of the movie "A Clockwork Orange." The image used for the cover of the single alluded to what is possibly Kubrick's best film: "2001: To Space Odyssey."

Also Sprach Zarathustra by Richard Strauss (Op. 30) / The Dawn of Man scene, 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick, 1969

We haven't changed that much in 300,000 years of evolution.

PS: Ground Control to Major Tom. Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong. Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you...

"Here am I floating 'round my tin can, far above the moon. Planet Earth is blue. And there's nothing I can do" (Major Tom)

Met you by surprise,

 

I didn't realize

 

That my life would change forever

 

Saw you standing there,

 

I didn't know I cared

 

There was something special in the air

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

The only kind of real fantasy

 

Illusions are a common thing

 

I try to live in dreams

 

It seems as if it's meant to be

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

A different kind of reality

 

I dream of loving in the night

 

And loving seems alright

 

Although it's only fantasy

 

If you do exist,

 

Honey don't resist

 

Show me a new way of loving

 

Tell me that it's true,

 

Show me what to do

 

I feel something special about you

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

The only kind of reality

 

May be my foolishness has past

 

And may be now at last

 

I'll see how a real thing can be

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

A wonderous world where I like to be

 

I dream of holding you all night

 

And holding you seems right

 

Perhaps that's my reality

 

Met you by surprise,

 

I didn't realize

 

That my life would change forever

 

Tell me that it's true,

 

Feelings that are cue

 

I feel something special about you

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

A wonderous world where I like to be

 

Illusions are a common thing

 

I try to live in dreams

 

Although it's only fantasy

 

Dreams are my reality,

 

I like to dream of you close to me

 

I dream of loving in the night

 

And loving you seems right

 

Perhaps that's my reality

You think I'd leave your side baby

You know me better than that

You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees

I wouldn't do that

I'll tell you you're right when you want

And if only you could see into me

 

Oh, when you're cold

I'll be there

Hold you tight to me

 

When you're on the outside baby and you can't get in

I will show you you're so much better than you know

When you're lost and you're alone and you can't get back again

I will find you darling and I will bring you home

 

And if you want to cry

I am here to dry your eyes

And in no time

You'll be fine

 

You think I'd leave your side baby

You know me better than that

You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees

I wouldn't do that

I'll tell you you're right when you want

And if only you could see into me

 

Oh when you're cold

I'll be there

Hold you tight to me

Oh when you're low

I'll be there

By your side baby

I think this format is a love it or hate it thing, I'm having fun for now experimenting and I like to think it's a way of showing a fuller perspective. Although obviously if you're viewing on a phone it's just crap.

For me, if there is an upside to lockdown this is it. A few acres of incredibly untouched and undisturbed woodland barely a mile from home that I hardly knew existed, it's a refuge for an astonishing range of wildlife and the perfect respite from all the frustrations of current limitations. Thanks to everyone who has commented, glad you like it and pleased if I've given you a smile. Next challenges are really getting to grips with the wildlife, and also charting the seasons. Stay safe all.
