Happy Weekend !
Reflection of Holzhausen palace / Holzhausen-Schloesschen
just around the corner, Frankfurt-Nordend.
OBSERVED for the first time a Village Weaver cutting and peeling long strips of a palm leaf to build its hanging nest, they coarsely weave the strips into a slightly onion-shaped nest with an entrance at the bottom. Fascinating experience.

THANK YOU, for your visit, friendship, and any kind comment. Keep safe and well dear friends, God bless.

They are curious to be observed while bathed by the rough sea, illuminated by the last rays of light, anxiously waiting to see the light of the moon, the light of the stars and so on forever, only that they feel observed
Sienten curiosidad por ser observadas mientras bañadas por el bravo mar, iluminadas por los ultimos rayos de luz, esperando ansiosamente a ver la luz de la luna, la luz de las estrellas y asi eternamente, solo eso se sienten observadas

Wikipedia: The coppersmith barbet (Psilopogon haemacephalus), also called crimson-breasted barbet and coppersmith, is an Asian barbet with crimson forehead and throat, known for its metronomic call that sounds similar to a coppersmith striking metal with a hammer. It is a resident bird in the Indian subcontinent and parts of Southeast Asia. It carves out holes inside a tree to build its nest. It is predominantly frugivorous, but has been observed eating insects, especially winged termites.

A photography of my father, who stood pensively contemplating the landscape with a lost gaze. The photography was totally improvised and, without thinking twice, I took the picture.
Una fotografía de mi padre, que contemplaba pensativo el paisaje con la mirada perdida. La fotografía fue totalmente improvisada y, sin pensármelo dos veces, hice la foto.

Gulls, or colloquially seagulls, are seabirds of the family Laridae in the suborder Lari. They are most closely related to the terns (family Sternidae) and only distantly related to auks, skimmers and even more distantly to waders. Until the 21st century, most gulls were placed in the genus Larus, but that arrangement is now considered polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of several general.
An older name for gulls is mews, which is cognate with German Möwe, Danish måge, Swedish mås, Dutch meeuw, Norwegian måke/måse and French mouette, and can still be found in certain regional dialects.
Gulls are typically medium to large birds, usually grey or white, often with black markings on the head or wings. They typically have harsh wailing or squawking calls; stout, longish bills; and webbed feet. Most gulls are ground-nesting carnivores which take live food or scavenge opportunistically, particularly the Larus species. Live food often includes crustaceans, molluscs, fish and small birds. Gulls have unhinging jaws which allow them to consume large prey. Gulls are typically coastal or inland species, rarely venturing far out to sea, except for the kittiwakes. The large species take up to four years to attain full adult plumage, but two years is typical for small gulls. Large white-headed gulls are typically long-lived birds, with a maximum age of 49 years recorded for the herring gull.
Gulls nest in large, densely packed, noisy colonies. They lay two or three speckled eggs in nests composed of vegetation. The young are precocial, born with dark mottled down and mobile upon hatching. Gulls are resourceful, inquisitive, and intelligent, the larger species in particular demonstrating complex methods of communication and a highly developed social structure. For example, many gull colonies display mobbing behavior, attacking and harassing predators and other intruders.Certain species have exhibited tool-use behavior, such as the herring gull, using pieces of bread as bait with which to catch goldfish, for example.[ Many species of gulls have learned to coexist successfully with humans and have thrived in human habitats. Others rely on kleptoparasitism to get their food. Gulls have been observed preying on live whales, landing on the whale as it surfaces to peck out pieces of flesh.

No place like home! feels so nice to be back with the family after a couple of days alone. The peace and quiet without the children was just too earie!
Wishing everyone a beautiful week ahead and will try to catch up over the next few days.
Leave you with another quote ;-)
True love is not a strong, fiery, impetuous passion. It is, on the contrary, an element calm and deep. It looks beyond mere externals, and is attracted by qualities alone. It is wise and discriminating, and its devotion is real and abiding - Ellen G. White
A fantastic afternoon of grey blue clouds shrouding the golden cliffs. Two peregrines soared high above watching my antics as I waited for gems to shine out. The best way to spend a few hours before catching the obligatory drenching :)) Observe the skies is by British Sea Power.
The National Photographic Portrait Prize and Darling Portrait Prize (paintings) entrants exhibition. National Portrait Gallery, Canberra. Who is observing whom?
The main portrait character is observing the photographer and in turn is being observed by the girl with the mask. She is being observed by the man in the far painting. The photographer is also being observed by the lady in the headscarf. The only indifference is by the woman reading the catalogue.

There are birdwatchers, there are plane-watchers, there are sky-watchers, etc. But what does the observed think when he himself observes something? What goes through the minds of the two pigeons when they see the two aeroplanes in the sky?
I imagine quantum physics like this. A tiny strip of reality that is observed becomes particle or whats not, all the rest is the blury undefined wave function.
A long focal distance makes this very ovious.
My submission for the Smile on Saturday theme of Observe the O. A very angry ocean at Porthcawl - one from the archives. As Storm Bert is raging this morning felt this was appropriate! Sadly don't have time to get to try and capture storm shots today.

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
The storm has passed, I always look at the sky, at the clouds.
But this time it is I who feel observed.
"International Cheetah Day is observed annually on December 4 to raise awareness about the plight of cheetahs, the fastest land animals on Earth.
Cheetahs, once widely distributed across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, now face severe threats from habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict, and illegal wildlife trade. Today, fewer than 7,000 cheetahs remain in the wild, with some subspecies, such as the Asiatic cheetah, critically endangered."
