En traversant l’Univers
Jeune, j’aimais regardé les étoiles
Avec un télescope
Les gens me cherchaient ici
Mais j’étais souvent là-bas
Là-bas, c’est aussi en chacun de nous
Il s’y trouve bien des mondes inexplorés que nous ignorons
Prisonniers consentants de notre réalité quotidienne
En traversant l’univers, celui qui m’habite,
Je n’ai jamais manqué de lumière
Pour aimer passionnément
Les couleurs de ce petit monde
Les choses inutiles
Les chemins peu fréquentés
Les enfants qui rient
L’humeur de tes yeux
Je suis encore là-bas, dansant avec les étoiles
Plus que jamais
Mais, je n’ai plus besoin de télescope
Et les gens ne me cherchent plus
En traversant l’univers, j’ai découvert …
Le rêveur qui regardait dans le télescope

Across the Universe
When I was young, I loved watching the stars
Through a telescope;
People thought I was here,
But often I was up there.
There, is also in each of us,
There are up there unexplored worlds that we ignore,
Consenting prisoners of our daily reality.
Crossing the universe, the one that lives inside me,
I never failed to find the light
To love passionately
The colors of this little world,
The useless things,
The remote roads,
The children that laugh,
The mood of your eyes.
I am still up there, dancing with the stars
More than ever
But, I don't need a telescope anymore
And people are not looking for me anymore.
Crossing the universe, I discovered. . .
The dreamer who was looking through the telescope

Isn't that what some wrinkles are called? This tulip, even though it hasn't much life left, still has a lot of beauty, in my mind. The wrinkles give it so much more character ;)
Taken in my lightbox.

This is the black-crowned night heron is the one that was in the background of the heron flyby from yesterday. I liked this shot with the beak open, looks like it's laughing.

This wild laughing kookaburra accepted hand held raw meat and it allowed my daughter to pat its head and back.
At one stage it had a piece of raw meat in its beak and another between its legs on the balcony handrail and I could see it thinking "what do I do now". After about 20 seconds it flew off and left the first piece in a safe place and then quickly returned to collect the second piece.
It is a native of eastern Australia and belongs to the Kingfisher sub-family Halcyonine. It is almost exclusively carnivorous and preys on a variety of small animals and snakes. . . .Sigma 70 -300mm f4 -5.6 APO DG Macro.
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
The feeling you get when there is no pain. I captured this very low point of view of these gifts from the Pacific Ocean. iPhone image.

The genus name Chroicocephalus is from Ancient Greek khroizo, "to colour" and kephale "head".
The specific ridibundus is Latin for "laughing" from ridere "to laugh"
(Chroicocephalus ridibundus, Syn: Larus ridibundus)
Thanks for your Views Faves and Comments, have all a nice day. 🍂✌
Laughing Kookaburra (wiki)
It was on the clothes line in our backyard this morning.
They laugh. It was slightly rainy yesterday evening and they were laughing so seriously. When they laugh, they laugh so super hard that if you hear multiple kookaburras laughing together you'll laugh so much till falling down 😆

*They're a type of kingfisher but so big.
Much bigger than our parrots.
The Laughing Gull is the dominant species on the Texas coast. They are year-long residents along the Gulf coast and up the Atlantic coastline. They breed as far north as the coast of Maine. They will winter as far south as both coasts of northern South America.
Notice how nearly identical this gull is to the Bonaparte's Gull, except the bill and legs on the BG are dark red and the eye ring is a bit more pronounced. Its call is different, too, as it does sound like a laugh.
I found this bird in Texas. Like many gulls, it didn't seem to mind people. I was happy he posed for me. The sky was overcast, so I didn't get any gleaming light on the bird, but he still presents well here.
