It's anarchy gone insane. I'm on assignment in Pemberton British Columbia, The TV news is just so full of sad, I think God that I have the right to take pictures of beautiful things without any fear. Kenneth

Okay, it's not actually within our backyard, but it's just beyond it. The yard behind our house borders a large park that is just being developed. The park was recently seeded, and the straw was put down as mulch. I took this shot while standing on our backyard deck. I think these Sandhill Cranes must have been eating the grass seed.

 

I know that there's not a lot going on in this image. But I rather like the repetitive poses of the birds, and I thought it was kind of cool that I could get this shot without leaving home, so I decided to go with it. The abundance of Sandhill Cranes in the area near our new home in Michigan has been one of the pleasant surprises of living here.

it's kinda like seeing the middle distance...

no focus required.

"Leben allein genügt nicht", sagte der Schmetterling. "Sonnenschein, Freiheit und eine kleine Blume muss man auch haben.“

'Life alone is not enough', said the butterfly. 'You also have to have sunshine, freedom and a little flower.'

- Hans Christian Andersen

 

" La vie seule ne suffit pas", dit le papillon. "Il faut aussi avoir du soleil, de la liberté et une petite fleur. »

It is said that the American Avocet brings elegance in the bird world to a new level. This image taken in the mangroves of the Ten Thousand Islands in SW Florida highlights this.

Trieste is a city and seaport in northeastern Italy. It is situated towards the end of a narrow strip of land lying between the Adriatic Sea and Italy's border with Slovenia, which lies almost immediately south and east of the city. Trieste is located at the head of the Gulf of Trieste and throughout history it has been influenced by its location at the crossroads of Germanic, Latin and Slavic cultures. In 2009, it had a population of about 205,000 and it is the capital of the autonomous region Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trieste province.

 

Trieste was one of the oldest parts of the Habsburg Monarchy from 1382 until 1918. In the 19th century, it was the most important port of one of the Great Powers of Europe. As a prosperous seaport in the Mediterranean region, Trieste became the fourth largest city of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (after Vienna, Budapest, and Prague). In the fin-de-siecle period, it emerged as an important hub for literature and music. However, the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Trieste's union to Italy after World War I led to some decline of its "Mittel-European" cultural and commercial importance. Enjoying an economic revival during the 1930s and throughout the Cold War, Trieste was an important spot in the struggle between the Eastern and Western blocs. Today, the city is in one of the richest regions of Italy, and has been a great centre for shipping, through its port (Port of Trieste), shipbuilding and financial services.

and then there's the bother of changing political parties :-)

It is unfeasible for me to take only one photograph or choose one image that I truly believe captures the essence of that place. It just doesn’t happen that way for me :-)

I stayed with the fog for one more image ..;) I do like the way it came out. Simple and relaxing.

Happy Sunday. Hope everyone in the Northeast is doing alright with that nasty weather. I saw a few pictures posted on Flickr. It looks really ugly

Paddy can land on a sixpence .. Elk's beginning to defer to Pad's as she's realising just as Mist does with having her that's she's got a Pad's that does that so why bother!

After the processing, this song popped up in my head:

'Paint It Black' by The Rolling Stones.

The first to lines are:

""I see a red door and I want it painted black.

No colours anymore, I want them to turn black.""

 

Sweet memories of Schiermonnikoog ;-))

Happy weekend!

Thank you to visit my photo stream always.

It's all connected, and, somehow, it's all in balance. And that's, of course, when you go, 'Yes!' :-)

A view of the bird feeder with new snow after having almost none for the winter. Still snowing . Happy spring to all. Spring flowers will be a while.

It feels like forever since I've been on Flickr and have missed all of you. I feel like I am finally on the road to recovery. It will take some time for me to get back to commenting on everyone's images - so you may just get faves for a bit. So happy to be back!

… it’s chicken … from your neighbour’s lunchbox, no less. Now what ?

 

Like a lot of new and very busy mums, Priscilla, our new tenant around the allotment, gets her calories when and wherever she may find them. I believe there are a lot of hungry suckling mouths at home.

It was one of those nights when the best image was found the opposite of where the sun was setting.

It takes two, baby...

... macro mondays ... tea ...

 

... I like coffee ...

Herring Gull at Girvan Harbour, yesterday.

 

I had the feeling that she expected to be fed...And she was being shadowed by her yearling , so must still be feeding the youngster. After a few minutes of strutting around, yapping, she eventually let out the iconic gull “rammy”. I was sorry I didn’t have any dead fish on me. 😄

“Shout,

Shout,

Let it all out;

These are the things I can do without,

Come on!

I’m talking to you,

Come on.’

(WiFi has been mostly off for the past four/five days. Two very assertive phone calls, yesterday, seem to have helped, a little. Trying to catch up with all of your wonderful photos...)

Tell me true

My heart is new

My love has gone away...

This image was taken 38 minutes later from the previous photo, still a 15 minutes long before sunrise.

 

The colors were at its best!

 

Thank you for your visit, I wish you a good day! 😘😘😘
