Todos os anos elas chegam lentamente. Vão aos poucos povoando o Parque Ecológico de Campinas.Nesta captura consegui o momento em que uma delas carregava um galho para construir o ninho.

ARRANGEMENTS
To weigh
a ball proves nothing
about the colour.
You look at
a ruler
and you hear
a piano.
While counting
eleven
sparrows their
rhythm escapes.
A dash
the length of
a now older
child.
Arranging flowers
by colour?
Their size
will be lost.
There she goes and
she isn’t being
photographed
by anyone.

Nurseries get ready ... its still cool over night... not yet proper planting time for delicate summer plants...
There were many of these little nursery stumps along the trail to Lake Ann and Marion Falls last night. All had a unique character of their own, but these three seemed to be conversing about something. I had to interrupt and tell them "Hey, you guys are nicely lit!"
A close up look at a Mother of Thousands plant. Each of those little buds will make a new plant when they drop off.
The nursery is a paddock usually reserved for calves that are being weaned from their mothers. This takes place very early so that the mother can continue to provide milk for the farm. The calves proceed to heifers (young females who have not been mated) and then enter the milking stream once they produce a calf.
These beautiful inquisitive calves were enjoying the summer sun and refreshing themselves on the rich grass and water from the stream.
Outside
The sky is feeling old-fashioned
in its birthday blue
and is dressing in grey, clouding
the trees who are yet to tell
what weird dance
the wind is trying to choreograph,
while the sun, playing hide and seek
with the world’s shadows,
is unsure if it should hide
in the little space of mind
between the familiar
and the unknown
something like the sky
failing to decide whether to send rains
or sunshine
or just vanish
and leave the world roofless
reflects our unknown
boundaries
looking outside
I feel I’m just what it is
the sky in a quandary

The spinach plot is one of the optimum places in the garden for getting insect and arachnid photo opportunities. The denseness of the leafage gives these creatures every chance to escape and hide if necessary. The leaves are also angled perfectly for sunbathing sessions at all times of the day. This nursery web spider was taking full advantage of the lovely sunny afternoon.
As we descend lower back towards Glenshee after climbing Carn Aosda and The Cairnwell, we pass what would, in winter, be the nursery training slopes, bordered by fencing. In the distance the high Munro summits of Carn an Tuirc and Cairn of Claise can be seen. But this is it folks, until the next time I'll bid you adieu.
This trip sees me bagging 2 more Munro's. Carn Aosda, my 22nd Munro, stands at 917 meters (3008 feet), while The Cairnwell, my 23rd Munro, stands at 933 meters (3061 feet). They do both stand at the heart of the Glenshee Ski Development, so may be not a pretty or remote as some other Munro's.
