I could get a squirrel proof one but they have to eat as well even though they don't belong in this country
Our local community gardens have been around for many years so the plots there have evolved their own sense of place and style - which often transcend whomever the stewarding gardener might be. Some of the most wonderful leftover artifacts are the "fences" which are, without a doubt, some of the most unique, artistic and ingenious fences I've ever seen.
Happy Fence Friday, my friends! Have an ingeniously inspiring weekend. :)
The clematis vine has become a symbol of mental strength and ingenuity because of its ability to climb up and around obstacles, twisting and spreading to reach lofty heights.
The nests these tiny hummingbirds build are amazing. They are roughly the size of a golf ball. You couldn't duplicate it with your hands and they do it all with their beak. True works of art.
Part of the Perseverance mission to Mars, Ingenuity is the helicopter that flies in the Martian atmosphere and sends photos and videos back to Perseverance and from there to NASA on Earth. Ingenuity is more than two years into an intended 30 day mission, far exceeding expectations.
A female Eastern Bluebird. Bluebird nest boxes in Carden Alvar are all against the fences; most often the birds land on a rusty fence wire before entering the nest. Some enterprising photographers decided to put up a broken piece of branch around the nest box to give the birds a more natural looking perch - only to forget about the cable ties.

Apologies for showing yet another squirrel picture but it's been raining all day, so the opportunities were rather limited.
Decided to show off my ingenuity of converting the bird stand into a squirrel stand. Also, I love that tree as a backdrop.
Endlich geschafft. das 400 m lange und 60 m breite Containerschiff Ever Alp, hat an seinem Liegeplatz am Container Terminal Buchardkai im Waltershofer Hafen vor der gleich großen One Ingenuity festgemacht. 2 Hafenschlepper fixieren den Pott, bis alle Leinen an den Pollern befestigt sind.
"Ingenuity quotient" è una definizione che trovai su Popular Science nel primo dopoguerra, mi colpì la corrispondenza con il comportamento di noi napoletani che secolarmente troviamo stratagemmi di sopravvivenza.
Qualche anno dopo mi capitò per mano un libretto di un filosofo tedesco del novecento dal titolo "La filosofia del rotto "dove ritrovai esilaranti aneddoti sul comportamento dei napoletani.

My old 2005 Ranger is on a pair of Rock Island flatcars that were laid side-by-side over a creek so a farmer could have access to his fields near Fenton, IL. Unfortunately the lettering has faded to the point where its illegible today.

Water mills, my friends, are a testament to the awesome force of nature harnessed by human ingenuity. These age-old structures, nestled along the banks of tranquil rivers and babbling brooks, have shaped the course of history. Water, the lifeblood of our planet, possesses an elemental power that spins the wheel, grinds the grain, and fuels the gears of industry. It's a timeless dance between mankind and the elements, a partnership that's etched in the very fabric of our civilization. The rhythmic turn of the water wheel, like a heartbeat, reminds us of the connection between the ever-flowing currents of nature and our ceaseless pursuit of progress. Water mills stand as timeless witnesses to the enduring synergy between water's might and human innovation, a reminder of the indomitable power that flows through our world.

Amish cooks would clean out their Mason jars, then turn them upside down and put them on fence posts around their gardens. The intense summer sun would generate enough heat inside the jars that the fence posts would actually char — perfectly sanitizing the jars. (Explained by guide at My Amish Home in Holmes County, Ohio)
Revelation 13:18 “Here is scope for ingenuity. Let people of shrewd intelligence calculate the number of the Wild Beast; for it indicates a certain man, and his number is 666.”

The United Nations is working towards expanding their powers yet again. If you fail, try again: write and rewrite, package and repackage, until it’s accepted. This is another step towards world governance.
People in the far north are quite clever when it comes to solving daily problems that might arise.
When your source of water is located high on the mountain side, and your home or business is well below - you simply make your own water pipeline. Of course this only solves the problem in the summer, as your jerry-rigged pipeline will freeze solid in the winter. In winter you will be digging a hole in the ice of the nearest body of water, filling containers, and hauling them home. I never said that life in the far north was easy. 😄

Amazing sight how this marvel of design and construction is fully intact winding through the streets. Aqueduct still ported water till the 1800s.
NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter captured this shot as it hovered over the Martian surface on April 19, 2021, during the first instance of powered, controlled flight on another planet. It used its navigation camera, which autonomously tracks the ground during flight.

C-GROV, an Airbus BD-500-1A11 A220-300, heading west on taxiway "Delta" towards runway 06L at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.
"Calin Rovinescu" was departing, just before sunset, as ACA720 (Air Canada) to New York (LaGuardia), New York.
Serial number 55067 was the first A220-300 to join Air Canada's fleet. On November 21, 2025, it received the 40th of the 65 units that it had ordered.
Although the BD-500 family was designed and developed by Bombardier, it has become a valuable addition to the Airbus commercial product line.

The history-making rotorcraft has recently been negotiating some of the most hazardous terrain it’s encountered on the Red Planet.
NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter has completed its 50th flight on Mars. The first aircraft on another world reached the half-century mark on April 13, traveling over 1,057.09 feet (322.2 meters) in 145.7 seconds. The helicopter also achieved a new altitude record of 59 feet (18 meters) before alighting near the half-mile-wide (800-meter-wide) “Belva Crater.”
This image of NASA’s Ingenuity Mars Helicopter was taken at “Airfield D” by the Mastcam-Z instrument on the Perseverance rover on June 15, 2021, the 114th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. The rotorcraft completed its 50th flight on April 13, 2023.

I love photographing old doors. Antique doors are not just an entrance and an exit. They are a penetration into the secrets of other eras, human destinies and, if you like, into the wonderful world of art. With what love, ingenuity and taste all these ancient doors, gates, shutters, door handles, locks, bolts, menacing masks, various bizarre figures are created. You just want to feel the rough structure of the wood with your hand, touch the cold patterned metal...
The couple probably wanted a long-exposure shot of The Parkway but had no tripod. So he set it on the steps to steady the camera.

I mentioned in recent post (see comments: flic.kr/p/YCsaBT) that I might begin to develop a project that I thought of just as our trip to Ohio was ending. I want to try and show through photographs what the Amish life is really all about - not just snap pics of pretty scenery. If I had had this in mind before beginning, I would have been more thoughtful with what and how I was shooting. Any thoughts/ideas from the Flickr world are welcome.
"Ingenuity" is a necessary skill in Amish life.
