Diese Seltenheit sah ich gestern in Bremen.

Die beste Beschreibung habe ich beim British Trust for Ornithology gefunden.

 

I saw this rarity yesterday in Bremen, Germany.

The best description I found at the British Trust for Ornithology

 

Ring Ouzel is a breeding bird of rocky slopes and high moorland. Its nominate race breeds in Ireland and Britain and along the mountain spine of Scandinavia from southern Norway to the Kola Peninsula in northwest Russia. In Britain it has a patchy and diminishing range from Dartmoor to northwest Scotland. These birds winter mainly in southern Spain and the Atlas Mountains of North Africa. Migrating Ring Ouzels, many of them from Scandinavia, are frequently seen in Britain well into November, sometimes in company with Redwings and Fieldfares, but are then mostly absent until the first breeders return in late March. Spring passage is noted mainly in April and early May.

Another race, alpestris, breeds along Europe's main watersheds from northern Spain through the Alps to the Appennines, Balkans and Carpathians, and a third race, amicorum, in Turkey, the Caucasus and western Kazakhstan.

Well... some poor misguided person nominated me for the Bloggies. So, I talk about that on the blog, PLUS, newness, PLUS... other things. You're going to have to read it to find out. readmeri.wordpress.com/2020/10/09/nom-nom-nominated/

A view looking east into downtown Austin from the rusted rails of the West 3rd St. Railroad Trestle over Shoal Creek. Constructed in 1925 by the International-Great Northern Railroad as a replacement to an earlier 1876 bridge, the wooden structure is one of the last physical reminders of the rail lines that fueled Austin's rapid development as a regional hub starting in the 1870s. The trestle was last used in the 1990s, and is currently nominated for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places.

 

With a population of just over one million residents, Austin is the 10th largest city in the United States. The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Area, now with a population of 2.3M, also is the fastest growing large metropolitan area in the country having added more than 579,000 residents since 2010.

I guess not that different to my usual pictures anyways as I barely use any makeup except a little eyeliner. My lashes as they are also not that big I kept on, as even without makeup I have some in RL right? But I took off my hair and wrapped it up so the attention is on the face.

 

Thank you for challenging me and I wish you all an amazing humpday! <3

The 900 block of N. McClean Street, on the east side of Bloomington's Franklin Square, has an interesting history in terms of Illinois politics. Of the four stately residences on this block, three were home to late 19th and early 20th century gubernatorial candidates: Joseph W. Fifer, who served one term as Illinois Governor from 1889 to 1893; Adlai Stevenson I, who served as Vice President of the United States under Grover Cleveland from 1893 to 1897, but then lost a close race for governor in 1908; and Frank H. Funk, who ran and lost as the Progressive "Bull Moose" Party candidate for Illinois Governor in 1912.

 

This post looks at the Queen Anne style Bates-Funk House which was built about 1891 for T. M. Dates, the superintendent of transportation for the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company. Frank H. Funk (1869-19, grandson of McLean County pioneer Isaac Funk, lived in the house from 1897 to 1924.

 

Frank Funk was born in Bloomington in 1869. He was a Yale graduate, managed over 2,000 acres of farmland, and also had an extensive political career. He was elected state senator to the Illinois General Assembly in 1909, and held that position until 1913. As previously noted, Funk ran for Illinois governor on the Bull Moose ticket in 1912 making him the third person living in the 900 block of N. McClean St. to be a party-nominated candidate for the Illinois governorship between 1888 and 1912. Frank Funk finished his political career as a Republican member of the U.S. House of Representative from 1921 to 1927. Funk died in Bloomington at the age of 71 in 1940.

 

The Bates-Funk House is a contributing property in Bloomington's Franklin Square Historic District, which is located northwest of downtown Bloomington. The Square is named in honor of Franklin Price, who was the mayor of Bloomington Mayor in 1856 when land for the Square was gifted to the city.

 

Franklin Square was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, and was designated a local historic district in 1979. The houses of Franklin Square were built in a variety of architectural styles from the mid 19th century through the early 20th century, including Georgian Revival, Italianate, Colonial, Queen Anne, and Richardsonian Romanesque.

 

Bloomington is the seat of McLean County. It is adjacent to Normal, and is the more populous of the two principal municipalities of the Bloomington-Normal metropolitan area. Bloomington is 135 miles (217 km) southwest of Chicago, and 162 miles (261 km) northeast of St. Louis. The estimated population of Bloomington in 2019 was 77,330, with a metro population of 191,067.

The Heydar Aliyev Center is a building complex in Baku, Azerbaijan designed by Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid and noted for its distinctive architecture and flowing, curved style . The center is named for Heydar Aliyev, the leader of Soviet-era Azerbaijan from 1969 to 1982, and president of Azerbaijan from October 1993 to October 2003.

The Center houses a conference hall (auditorium), a gallery hall and a museum.

The official opening was in 2012.

An internationally recognized architectural work, the building of the Heydar Aliyev Center has become a signature landmark of modern Baku due to its innovative and cutting-edge design. The building was nominated for awards in 2013 at both the World Architecture Festival and the biennial Inside Festival.

In 2014, Centre won the Design Museum’s Design of the Year Award 2014 despite concerns about the site's human rights record. This makes Zaha Hadid the first woman to win the top prize in that competition.

 

Zaha Hadid died in March 2016.

The brown pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) is a North American bird of the pelican family, Pelecanidae. It is one of three pelican species found in the Americas and one of only two that feed by diving in water. It is found on the Atlantic Coast from Nova Scotia to the mouth of the Amazon River, and along the Pacific Coast from British Columbia to northern Chile, including the Galapagos Islands. The nominate subspecies in its breeding plumage has a white head with a yellowish wash on the crown. The nape and neck are dark maroon–brown. The upper sides of the neck have white lines along the base of the gular pouch, and the lower fore neck has a pale yellowish patch. The male and female are similar, but the female is slightly smaller. The nonbreeding adult has a white head and neck. The pink skin around the eyes becomes dull and gray in the nonbreeding season. It lacks any red hue, and the pouch is strongly olivaceous ochre-tinged and the legs are olivaceous gray to blackish-gray.

Lagopus muta muta (nominate, french name : Lagopède alpin) - Around Mont de Grange, Upper-Savoy, France

 

This species being tight to cold climates, it is in the high mountains that it lives all year round in France, over 2000 masl, and it is where I came to find him, around the magnificent Mont de Grange, maybe the wildest mountain around my home.

 

I had met this bird in this place two years ago, when I was not using a camera, so I came back with a good hope that they might be resident and still here, and thus take a picture.

 

Indeed two of them were there, feeding on a slope mixing grass and rocks lanslides, its prefered habitat, that compose the background of the picture. They first gave clue of their presence by the so peculiar song, described as "that of a stick being pulled rapidly across the slats of a picket fence", a sort of strange rattle. Then one showed up near the trail, and stay standing a long time, for the best sight I could expect.

 

This species has the particularity of moulting three times a year, so that it is perfectly camouflaged all year round according to the seasons and the changing colors in its environment. Also, the red comb above the eye is more or less swollen by a blood supply controlled by the bird. During my observation, the size of the eyebrow varied greatly, and was sometimes much more visible than when I took the photo.

The male is completly white during winter when snow covers everything, only the comb remains red, and here it is the breeding plumage. Another adaptation to its life in the snow is found in its tarsi, which are covered with feathers.

 

It is a fantastic bird, and we enjoy to be close to some individuals during a hike in the most preserved mountains.

RUNSWICK BAY.

 

We drove through the Cleveland Hills, North-Yorkshire, the weather getting more and more ominous as we got closer to the Heritage Coast, flat light, no detail in the sky, ah well it was going to be 'an outing' of discovery and mental photography...

That's how we came to this beautiful little village, the road ends just before this, I was so enthralled by what I saw, grabbed my stuff, jumped out of the car, ran towards the sea, this was my first shot.

Thank you for all your kindness and as always, thanks for your visits and comments today, M, (*_*)

I am a sensitive realists who through photography escapes from reality, by capturing real moments in time.

That is how I see the world.

 

The cathedral like trees, dappled light, and again, the silence only broken by a bumblebee, a bird, a distant moo, the shutter of the camera.

This is ZEN.

The adult male of the nominate subspecies, which is found throughout most of Europe, is all black except for a yellow eye-ring and bill and has a rich, melodious song; the adult female and juvenile have mainly dark brown plumage. This species breeds in woods and gardens, building a neat, mud-lined, cup-shaped nest. It is omnivorous, eating a wide range of insects, earthworms, berries, and fruits.

 

Both sexes are territorial on the breeding grounds, with distinctive threat displays, but are more gregarious during migration and in wintering areas. Pairs stay in their territory throughout the year where the climate is sufficiently temperate. This common and conspicuous species has given rise to a number of literary and cultural references, frequently related to its song.

I want to really thank you to everyone who voted me. I am so happy and honored to be nominated as Best New Blogger :)

Fragment of us

 

CLICK HERE TO WATCH

  

Fragment of Us is a short documentary set inside a virtual world, observing a 21-day period of connection between two people through their avatars. The film considers how experiences that might take a lifetime in physical life can unfold repeatedly and rapidly online, yet carry the same emotional weight. By documenting this compressed cycle, it questions why intimacy, attachment, and loss remain just as real when lived digitally, even as the environment allows them to begin again

The adult male of the nominate subspecies, S. e. europaea is 14 cm (5.5 in) long with a 22.5–27 cm (8.9–10.6 in) wingspan. It weighs 17–28 g (0.6–1 oz). It has blue-grey upperparts, a black eye-stripe and whitish throat and underparts. The flanks and lower belly are orange-red, mottled with white on the undertail. The stout bill is dark grey with a paler area on the base of the lower mandible, the iris is dark brown and the legs and feet are pale brown or greyish. Most other members of the S. e. europaea group differ only in detail from the nominate form, often with respect to the hue of the underparts, but S. e. arctica is quite distinctive. It is large, pale, has a white forehead and a reduced eye-stripe, and it has more white in the tail and wings than any other subspecies. Nuthatches move on trees with short leaps, and do not use their tails for support. In flight, they have a characteristic appearance, with a pointed head, round wings and a short, square tail. Their flight is fast, with wings closed between beats, and is usually of short duration.

 

S. e. caesia, the most widespread of the western subspecies, has orange-buff underparts except for a white throat and cheeks. The other western forms mainly differ in the exact shade of the underparts, although some southeastern forms also show a white forehead and supercilium. S. e. sinensis and S. e. formosana, of China and Taiwan respectively, have buff underparts like the western races, but have buff, instead of white, throats.

 

The female is similar in appearance to the male, but may be identified by her slightly paler upperparts, a browner eyestripe and a more washed-out tone to the flanks and lower belly. In the eastern form, S. e. asiatica, some males have buff underparts like the female, and birds with this appearance are difficult to sex in the field. Young birds resemble the female, although their plumage is duller and they have paler legs. Individuals can be reliably sexed as female from about 12 days old by their paler and buffer flanks, or, in some white-breasted subspecies, by the creamier hue of their underparts.

 

Adults have a complete moult after breeding which takes about 80 days, starting from late May onwards and finishing by late September. The moult period for Siberian birds is more compressed, running from June to mid-September. Fledged juveniles moult some of their wing coverts when they are about eight weeks old.

 

In much of its range, Eurasian is the only nuthatch present. In southeast Europe and southwest Asia, the western and eastern rock nuthatches are larger and paler than the Eurasian species. They also lack white spots in the tail and are usually found in a different, stony habitat, and Krüper's nuthatch is small and has a black cap and reddish breast patch. In southwest China, the chestnut-vented nuthatch is very similar to the European bird, but is darker above, has less white on the face and has greyer underparts.

Nominate race are a passage Bird in Sufolk.This male was in the Car Park at Alton Water this Morning.

The Liberty Historic District is located in the small community of Liberty (population of 374 in 2019) in rural western Dekalb County in Middle Tennessee. The District was nominated for the National Register of Historic Places under criteria A & C for its association with the Sparta-Lebanon center for the surrounding farms in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and as a fine collection of vernacular architecture dating between the 1820's and 1930's. When Liberty's small scale vernacular architecture is combined with its narrow tree-lined streets, rock walls and stone fences, outbuildings, and surrounding farmland, the feeling of a nineteenth to early twentieth century community is readily conveyed. Referred to as just the Methodist Church in historical documents, the now Phillips' Chapel United Methodist Church was constructed by the black community in 1880 and was a part of the Liberty Historical District that was added to the NRHP on June 25, 1987. However, the structure no longer exists but I cannot find information on why it was removed or destroyed. More information about the District can be found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration found here:
