Heath or heathland is a shrubland habitat found on mainly infertile acidic soils, characterised by open, low growing woody vegetation, often dominated by plants of the Ericaceae. It is similar to moorland, but is generally warmer and drier.
Heaths are widespread worldwide. They form extensive and highly diverse communities across Australia in humid and sub-humid areas. Fire regimes with recurring burning are required for the maintenance of the heathlands. Even more diverse though less widespread heath communities occur in Southern Africa. Extensive heath communities can also be found in California, New Caledonia, central Chile and along the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. In addition to these extensive heath areas, the vegetation type is also found in scattered locations across all continents, except Antarctica.
Under this chapel is the beach of A Lanzada which was, for a long time, the Galician reference for infertile women to become pregnant.
There were three key dates of the year:
The 21st of June
On June 23, the night of San Xoán
Both linked to the pagan celebration of the summer solstice.
Women who wanted to have a child and were unable to, for whatever reason, entered the water and let its waves pass nine times over their bellies.
We thought this was an interesting pair. Mandarin ducks are capable of breeding with Wood ducks to produce infertile hybrids. The Mandarin duck is native to east Asia. Isolated populations exist in the United States from escaping captive birds. There is a free-flying feral population of several hundred mandarins in Sonoma County, California. We spotted two Mandarin Males head bobbing and courting Wood duck females. Female Wood Ducks and Female Mandarin Ducks share many physical similarities.
A Lawrences's Warbler at Colchester Pond, Vermont
"If warblers are the jewels of North American songbirds, then the Lawrence's Warbler is one rare and beautiful gem. Not only is it rare in numbers of birds observed but also in terms of its origin. This bird does not rise to full species level but is a hybrid of two recognized species, the Golden-winged Warbler (Vermivora chrysoptera) and the Blue-winged Warbler (Vermivora cyanoptera).
Many if not most hybrids of birds are thought to be infertile. However, there is an established history of fertile hybrid offspring of the mating of the Golden-winged and Blue-winged Warblers. The offspring can take one of two stereotypical forms known as Brewster's Warbler and Lawrence's Warbler. There are a number of plumage variations between these two classic types. When first discovered, the Brewster's Warbler ("Vermivora Zeucobronchialis") and the Lawrence's Warbler ("Vermivora lawrencei") were considered new species. But around 1880, William Brewster concluded that these two were in fact hybrids between the Golden-winged and Blue-winged warblers.
The Brewster's is the more commonly occurring hybrid with dominant genes while the Lawrence's is rare due to the fact that the genes that produce the plumage pattern for this hybrid are recessive and their proper combination occurs infrequently. John T. Nichols of the American Museum of Natural History worked out the initial Mendelian model for the inheritance pattern for these hybrids which was later refined by Kenneth C. Parks.
Commelina communis (Asian Dayflower; ‘Tsuyukusa’ in Japanese) is an annual plant native to Eastern Asia. This lovely weed produces small but vivid blue flowers in summer. The flower has six stamens; the shorter three’s butterfly-shaped anthers attract visiting bugs and their pollen is infertile, i.e., it is just a gift for visitors. In this shot, the visitor (possibly a kind of Andrenidae or Halictidae) was absorbed in collecting the gift.
Bramble is both loved and hated for its thorns and powers of entanglement as well as its delicious fruit and it is deeply embedded in our tradition and folklore.
The pastime of blackberry picking (blackberrying) goes back thousands of years and is still popular in both town and country. Ripe juicy blackberries have a high vitamin C content and can be eaten raw or cooked. They are traditionally used in pies, crumbles (usually paired with apples), wines, jams, jellies and vinegar. Strong ale brewed from blackberries, malt and hops was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Bramble has widely been used in traditional medicine. Its leaves are used in the preparation of herbal teas and the root bark and leaves are used medicinally, being strongly astringent with diuretic, healing and detoxifying properties. Gerard's Herbal published in 1633, gives a remedy made from blackberry leaves 'for fastening the teeth back in'. Blackberries are known to have health benefits for women due to their high levels of phytoestrogens.
Blackberry fruits yield a blue dye and a fibre from the stems have been used to make string. Blackberry bushes can prevent soil erosion on infertile, disturbed sites and the ancient Britons used thorny stems as a boundary or barrier in the way modern people use barbed wire.
Brambles also provide an important source of nectar for Brimstone and Speckled Wood butterflies; fruits for Song Thrushes and Yellowhammers; and hiding places for Hedgehogs and Dormice.

Rhododendron calendulaceum, the flame azalea, is a species of Rhododendron native to North America. All parts of this plant are poisonous to humans.
The flowers are 4–5 cm long, usually bright orange, but can vary from pastel orange to dark reddish-orange. These non-fragrant flowers have 4-5 lobes and grow in clusters of 5–10. It typically blooms in late May and early June.
The Ericaceae are a family of flowering plants, commonly known as the heath or heather family, found most commonly in acidic and infertile growing conditions.

The fertile leaflets of this fern are covered with tiny round spore producing sporangis. Upon releasing the spores, the fertile leaflets will fall off, leaving an open space (interrupted) between the remaining upper and lower infertile leaflets.
Actinodium is a genus of the botanical family Myrtaceae. Actinodium sp. Fitzgerald River has the larger flower of only two species in the Actinodium genus, the other being Actinodium cunninghamii. Both species are occurring inland from the southern coast near Albany and on the Esperance Plains to the Fitzgerald River. The flower head is composed of compacted pinkish flowers surrounded by a white fringe of infertile elongated flowers.
Daniel Carlsson Solander (1733-1782), a student of great Carolus Linnaeus, accompanied James Cook on the Endeavour's first voyage around the world (1768-1771). In the South Seas he saw this Rhopalostylis sapida, which Johann Georg Adam Forster (1754-1794) - who went on Cook's second voyage - called an Areca (1786). It's now in blossom in the Hortus Botanicus here in Amsterdam.
I examined it closely and found the male flowers sticky with nectar. It's exuded by the pistillodes - the infertile pistils that the male flowers bear. My fingers were deliciously sticky from having brushed those flowers as Olymp was doing his thing.
Curiously none of the scientific descriptions that I read mention that stickiness. In the inset you can see a few of those pistillodes with drops of nectar.

I infiltrate your dreams
I am the reason for your adultery
With my concupiscence of the flesh
I will obstruct the venereal act
I am the cause of your impotence
The reason for infertility
With a touch, a look, or an amulet
Your misery is my responsibility
I am the instigator of all hate
I bring the rain and the plague
And for all the sins you commit
I am the one to blame
And confess, I must
I am the liar by nature
The cause of shipwreck
Like the song of the sirens
Luring you to sin with my witchcraft

Great Blue heron and Great egret, sometimes kissing cousins as evidenced by hybrid birds from rare instances of interbreeding. While the hybrid offspring can be remarkably attractive, they are thought to be infertile.
The sweet gum [(Liquidambar styraciflua] resembles a maple tree and its spiky “gum balls” hang conspicuously from the tree’s smaller branches, sometimes all winter. The infertile seeds found in each of the sweet gum’s compound seed capsules are a naturally occurring source of shikimic acid, one of the main ingredients in the manufacture of Tamiflu.

Heath is a shrubland habitat found mainly on free-draining infertile, acidic soils and characterised by open, low-growing woody vegetation.
Heaths are widespread worldwide but are fast disappearing and are considered a rare habitat in Europe.
In the Veluwe heath habitat, shrubs can play a dominant role. Other dwarf bushes can also occur. Common 'dophei' is sometimes quite common in young vegetation with a thick litter layer (after mowing) and in more humid places.
Heath will always gradually turn into forest in development, there is a continuous growth of mainly coarse pine and rough birch. And there’s another development: the problems that come with the modern ‘nitrogen problem’. Because too much nitrogen settles on the heathlands, plants there are supplanted by the pipe straw. This type of grass does well on nutrient-rich soils and therefore benefits from nitrogen deposition. The result is visible in many places on the Veluwe: Heaths have been turned into brown grassy plains.

Commersonia is a genus of plants in the mallows family. Plants in this genus occur from Indochina to Australia. They have stems, leaves and flowers covered with star-like hairs. Commersonia craurophylla occurs mainly in the dry Great Western Woodlands of Western Australia. The flower composition is interesting and what initially look to be 5 large white petals are actually the white sepals. The petals are the tiny cream shoehorn looking components, of which each cradles a short stamen. The white points are actually staminodes (infertile stamens) that are positioned between each fertile stamen (those with anthers). The very short stigma can just be seen at the flower centre. florabase.dbca.wa.gov.au/browse/profile/40923nofollow&quo...

The Canada goose is originally from Northamerica but has spread out over Europe and even New Zealand. It's the most common goose worldwide. In Europe it tends to live closer to humans than the native Grey goose. Although an invasive species (neozoa) the Canada goose is not threatening for other native species. Itcan even have offspring with the Grey goose. The offspring however is infertile due to genetic differences.

On this glum day, we hiked a bit on the outskirts of the Elmpter Wald on the border between Germany and The Netherlands. It's a nature reserve under the care of a joint German-Dutch environmental association. After traipsing through pine forests on the German plateau - and looking at some of the WWII trenches - we descended again into the Meuse Valley just southeast of Boukoul, north of Roermond in The Netherlands. At the end of this track there's a large blueberry farm, and that's where between two fen ponds Spring Dandelions were poking up out of the otherwise quite infertile grounds.
This one was being visited by pretty Dasysyrphus tricinctus, Broad Triplebelted Hoverfly.

Penstemon, the beardtongues, is the largest genus of flowering plants endemic to North America. Penstemon have partly tube-shaped, and two-lipped flowers. The most distinctive feature of the genus is the prominent staminode, an infertile stamen, that is typically a long straight filament extending to the mouth of the corolla, some are longer and extremely hairy, giving the general appearance of an open mouth with a fuzzy tongue protruding and inspiring the common name of "beardtongue". The native range of the pictured Gorman's penstemon is Alaska to Northern British Columbia. It grows on dry sandy or gravelly sites. I have seen this flower in a range of colours from light pink to blue and purple.
Over the moon to photograph this female Little Owl with her only chick today, for the last three years she hasn't had any, I thought she may be infertile and put it down to her age as Ive been photographing her for over eight years and the last year at times she as a job to fly from one side of the barn to the other.

LIANG BUA is a limestone cave in manggarai regency of which RUTENG is the administrative centre. although much of the regency comprises infertile limestones,some parts are very suitable for paddy field cultivation and the area generally is known as The Rice Bowl of Flores Region.the first scientific work at liang bua was undertaken in 1965,by father Theodorus Verhoeven. his excavations yielded high concrentrations of stone artefacts,burials and pottery,which proved the archaelogical potential on the site.

Whilst they can be found on the Isle of Wight and Brownsea Island, the Westmorland area of northern England and a small patch near Crosby are the only places in England Red Squirrels can call home.
A sad state of affairs as before the introduction of the Eastern Gray Squirrel from the USA Reds were widespread across Britain. This linked article gives a decent summary of how the Greys have gradually taken over in Britain. www.wildlifeonline.me.uk/questions/answer/whats-the-story...
In Westmorland, these Reds are seen as precious and there are numerous road signs advising drivers to be careful in areas where these are known to be about. Locals are reminded of their importance and if a grey is seen, it should be reported immediately!
There are various schemes 'in the works' to reverse the dominance of the Grey Squirrels in Britain, which could possibly include infertility measures and the management of Pine Martens which are more likely to predate a grey rather than a red.
My Red Squirrel here was one of three significant species I managed to photograph within an hour of arriving at Smardale. Fantastic!

This fern species is characterized by the unique "interruption" which occurs in the middle of its leaf-like fronds. The interruption occurs when the fertile bead-like (spore-bearing) leaflets in the middle of the frond wither and fall off leaving a gap between the upper and lower infertile leaflets. The beaded fertile leaflets are visible in this image.
In the 1990s, some of the bunkers were reborn as works of art. Danish Artist Elle-Mie Ejdrup Hansen was commissioned to mark the 50th anniversary of the war’s end with an art project. The collaborative project included works by 24 international artists and a musical composition by Danish jazz musician Palle Mikkelborg.
One of the artists Elle-Mia Ejdrup Hansen invited to participate in the project was British sculptor Bill Woodrow. Woodrow had the idea to transform four of the unsightly, decaying bunkers into mules. He did this by attaching steel mule heads and tails onto the existing structures.
The animal Woodrow chose wasn’t random. As mules are infertile, the artist used them to symbolically say that the terrors of war should not be able to reproduce.
The UK government is releasing genetically modified infertile Grey Squirrels to pass infertility on and kill the population. Further if you take an injured squirrel to a sanctuary it will be killed. I am told they do a lot of damage to trees. One council cut down 600 trees by "accident" last year. HS2 demands ancient woodland being carved in two, with the loss of lots of trees. Who does more tree damage? I think Humans. I am aware they are not native, however they have been here over 100 years and have a right to stay.
I add that it is the only mammal that the British general public see on a regular basis. Are we to be deprived of this pleasure?
I have never seen a Red Squirrel. I do not think their habitat is towns and cities. Roadkill squirrel makes up Red Kite, Raven, Buzzard diets (possibly more species.)
Afterword........ I have only seen a Badger once alive and the government has slaughtered over 40,000 of them.
I have not seen a Fox for several years.
Never seen an Otter, Pine Martin, Dormouse, Wildcat. So I see squirrels and love seeing them.

I have always felt an irresistible attraction towards the occult, the pagan, what cannot be explained and what people often do not dare to talk about. Throughout history, powerful and intelligent women have been persecuted, mistreated, punished, and often to d3ath. Young women, old women, girls... of all social classes and colors. If you didn't follow the rules, if you talked more than you had to, if you were connected with nature and with your being, you were penalized. This post is for all of them, for the witches, the lonely ones, the crazy, the mothers, the infertile, the healers, the wise ones... You were / are loved.

J. Pierce Cunningham is among the first to settle in Jackson Hole, Wyoming in 1885. The summer is too dry, the winter is too cold and the soil is too infertile. Although the scenery of the Tetons is incomparable, it can not be eaten. So many early settlers left after struggling for years.
Cunningham is one of the few survivors in Jackson Hole. He came from New York at age about twenty. He didn't build more hay barns to raise more cows as most ranchers did. This prevents him to become the richest person, but helps him out of the bankrupt in bad years. By 1925, he is 40 years older and his mind is 40 years wiser. He recognizes the best use of Jackson Hole is for recreation. He supports the idea for a national park and waits for his beloved home becoming a national park. Although the Tetons are created as a national park in 1929, sadly he died before he could see his dream come true.
