One of the adult sandhill cranes showing the colt how to pull corn kernels from a husk of corn...a really neat experience to watch.

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.

…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:-)…..

Happy Blue Monday, y'all! :)
Solely inspired by my cousin's Nostalgia.
Okay I know it's not as puuurdy but I was only on the plane for an hour! I couldn't have expected a sunset in broad daylight. :P

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.

UK designer Thomas Heatherwick masterpiece at Nanyang Technology University in Singapore.
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.*
