A rainforest is an area of tall, mostly evergreen trees and a high amount of rainfall. Rainforests are Earth’s oldest living ecosystems, with some surviving in their present form for at least 70 million years. They are incredibly diverse and complex, home to more than half of the world’s plant and animal species—even though they cover just 6% of Earth’s surface. This makes rainforests astoundingly dense with flora and fauna. Rainforests’ rich biodiversity is incredibly important to our well-being and the well-being of our planet.

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

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.

Very hard to capture as they are always on the hop.

Among the few flowering plants still showing colors this Winter is Vinca, Periwinkle. There are two common kinds: major and minor. They are hardly to be distinguished leading great Carolus Linnaeus to comment: 'who therefore mixes them up hardly errs'. Such a one is me😉... The flower in the photo shows clear signs of winter rotting, those spots.

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.

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.

Seal Lake, Sauvie Island.18 April 2021.

 

Musky carefully waded out into the lake in order to get a closer look at a Greater Yellowlegs. He doesn't swim much anymore, and is not that interested in following the common ducks. But the Yellowlegs were a new sighting for his life list and he was very curious about and intent on them.
