I allà era ell, amb menjar pel petit que hi havia dins del niu... No m'hi vaig acostar més, no volia estorbar-lo.

Raindrops trickle off a grey 1966 ‘Moggy’ illuminated by streetlights in Tewkesbury High Street last night. The name Moggy for a Morris Minor like this one, OAR 421D, has stuck because people have used the term for generations. If people didn't use the name, it wouldn't exist. Similarly, our friends Down Under call them a 'Morrie'.

Yup , another random car find and this time a Morris Minor convertible .
I think it is a 1961 948 cc model .
It looked in a very good condition from what I saw at a distance .
The church is one of the minor basilicas of Rome and was built at the end of the sixteenth century on the site of the small church. Sant'Andrea della Valle houses the tombs of the two popes of the Piccolomini family, Popes Pius II and Pius III.

Dongdaemun Design Plaza's "Design Playground" is a long corridor inside the building winding its way through the snailhouse and has a total length of 533 meters! Us tiny humans get lost in it. Surprisingly, almost nobody was there when I visited.
• Lesser flamingo

Order:Phoenicopteriformes
Family:Phoenicopteridae
Genus:Phoeniconaias
Species:P. minor
The lesser flamingo is a species of flamingo occurring in sub-Saharan Africa and western India. Birds are occasionally reported from further north, but these are generally considered vagrants.
This is the smallest species of flamingo, though it is a tall and large bird by most standards. Most of the plumage is pinkish white. The clearest difference between this species and the greater flamingo, the only other Old World species of flamingo, is the much more extensive black on the bill. Size is less helpful unless the species are together, since the sexes of each species also differ in height.
This species may be the most numerous species of flamingo, with a population that (at its peak) probably numbered up to two million individual birds. This species feeds primarily on Spirulina, algae which grow only in very alkaline lakes. Presence of flamingo groups near water bodies is indication of sodic alkaline water which is not suitable for irrigation use. Although blue-green in colour, the algae contain the photosynthetic pigments that give the birds their pink colour. Their deep bill is specialised for filtering tiny food items.

Today I saw a picture from an Uzbekistan city, which reminded me I still have lots of nice pictures from that part of the world that I never posted. Many are from older buildings, that are stunning pieces of architecture, but this one is a recent building (opened in 2014) that shows the people in Uzbekistan are still very talented when it comes to making magnificent mosques.
Earlier I posted a fragment (the inner dome www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/49683223038/in/album-...), this is the building from the outside.
20 September 2019 I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.
Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!
We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.
And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.
The evergreen Stinking Hellebore smells only when you crush the leaves. Some people like its curious scent, which is variously likened to roast beef, wet dog or coffee. Its dark green leaves sprout from a thick stem. The flowers are green also but a lighter, yellowish shade; drooping cup-like in shape. The five sepals have a distinctive purple fringe.
Helleborus foetidus, known variously as Stinking Hellebore, Dungwort, Setterwort and Bear's Foot, is a species of flowering plant in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae, native to the mountainous regions of Central and Southern Europe, Greece and Asia Minor.
This plant was photographed in a Cotswold woodland and found by Flickr friend Pete Rodgers.
