Originally a library, it also served as a social gathering place and as a teahouse. Now it houses the Napa County Historical Society. It’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The last time I viewed the building in 2013 there were trees obscuring much of the front. This time I was able to get a clear shot.
A beaver kit enjoys the spring sunshine and finds a quiet spot for a nap. EDIT: Looking at it again, I think this actually a juvenile muskrat.

The lady beetle was having a nice afternoon nap until I came along poking my big obstrusive lens into her secret napping spot. She came out, said hello, and returned to her burrow and nap.
The lady beetle is an Asian, 7-spotted (C7) lady beetle (Coccinella septempunctata).
The floral host is the umbel of Queen Anne's lace (Daucus carota).
A little break to Porto photos. Might come back to them later. Some shots taken with OM-2 FUJICOLOR SUPERIA X-TRA400
Nap Time
I think I may have arrived during the swan's nap time.
Lots of swans at Onedia Narrows today

Cabalo de Pradeiras headland.
Fili was pooped after a 3-hr hike in the morning, a few hours of walking around A Coruña and a long lunch where she probably didn't get a chance to sleep because of the large dog of some nearby diners. We were walking through this park on the edge of the city when she just lay down and refused to go any further. So, here we stayed for the next hour. She certainly picked a nice spot.
Caught it napping yesterday, although an eye slightly open means I'd been spotted!

This is Conti being Conti. He doesn't mind the camera too much but he is so curious that he comes over to investigate every time I get the camera out.
Our other cat Romanee, is very shy and it is almost impossible to get a good shot of her. I did sneak up on her the other day when she was concentrating on a bird at our window.
Our little girl, Winnie, (9 weeks old at the time) takes a nap in the sun with her favorite toy duck. Winnie is a completely black, Golden Shepherd. Her mother is a pure bread Golden Retriever, and her father is a long haired German Shepherd. Currently at 12 weeks old, she weighs 30lbs. She’s gonna be a big girl!

231) Red-Naped Trogon
Red-Naped Trogon, Harpactes kasumba, Kasumba Tengkuk Merah
This bird itself was first described in 1822 by Sir Stamford Raffles, a military and British naturalist (1781-1826) best known for having founded Singapore in 1817. One of 7 Trogons that can be found in Malaysia. The bird is mainly insectivorous, feasting on arthropods with a preference for stick insects and spiders. This regime is embellished with small lizards, fruits and seeds. Harpactes kasumba are generally inactive outside of their regular feeding patterns. Because of this, birdwatchers and biologists have noted that apart from their general beauty, they are notorious for their lack of other immediately engaging qualities.Their lack of activity has been considered as a defence against predation. In association with other Trogonidae species, the Harpactes kasumba have been reported to shift along branches to keep their dull coloured backs turned towards observers, while their heads, which can rotate at 180 degrees like owls, to keep watch on any potential predators. They are preyed upon by hawks and predatory mammals. The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as rare in Thailand, fairly common in Peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra, rather scarce in Sarawak and uncommon in Singapore, Indonesia, Sarawak, Sabah and Brunei. The current population trend shows a decline in the number of Harpactes kasumba at a moderately rapid rate, owing to habitat loss and degradation throughout its distribution range.
Kasumba yang ini terdapat di kawasan hutan tanah rendah, lazimnya yang berada jauh dari penempatan manusia. Seperti Kasumba lain, burung ini sukar dilihat kerana penyamarannya dan sifatnya yang bertenggek tanpa bergerak untuk jangkamasa lama di pokok pokok tinggi. Ia memburu serangga dan reptilia kecil, juga sekali sekala buah buah hutan.
