The picture on my photostream with the most views is of this little birch tree, taken last June. Despite not adhering to photography rules, it appeared on Explore Front Page and gained over 5,000 views in a very short time. I'm not sure whether this latest capture from last weekend shows an improvement in my skills but at least it shows the changing seasons in Skye.

My niece came from France to learn some English. She also found interest in music...

…I assume this is a forerunner of sailing and a good place to start and learn how to harness the wind. Missing the sea already - I want to go back, this was taken at Coverack on the Lizard in Cornwall. Have a great week folks, Alan:-)…..

that not-at-all-good feeling when you discover an error that requires taking the needles out and unraveling half of your work so far. but such is learning…

One more from April. One of the eaglets watching and learning how to fly with confidence.

 

Thanks all for your wonderful comments sent my way from yesterday's post and words. After writing about the eagles in the morning, sharing it on Flickr, we headed out to the eagle's nest. To my surprise and delight, for the first time this year, the Mom and Dad Eagle (Lucy and Ricky) were feeding a newly hatched eaglet or two.

 

Happy Happy New Year.

Come ariete immaginario

apro un varco nelle mura.

Abbandono la città;

me ne vado alla ventura.

Cerco isole deserte

dove covano i gabbiani,

là per ore starò inerte

senza l'ansia del domani......

Found this young Tri-colored Heron learning the ropes on Horsepen Bayou. He was busy foraging at the water’s edge. I don’t see many birds on this small bypass on the backside of one of the horseshoe bends and usually don’t paddle this area.

Resembling a cluster of elongated bee hives, the Learning Hub at Nanyang Technology University explores new ways of teaching at a time when computers and the internet are challenging the rationale of learning institutions.

 

The hub’s form is dictated by its function, and brings together 55 tutorial rooms into a structure without conventional corridors, which have traditionally created social separation and isolation. The learning hub has no one door, it is porous. Students can enter from 360 degrees around into a large central space which links all the separate towers together. Each tower is made up of a stack of classrooms which build up gradually, with gardens on selected floors.*
