The green tree was the only one in this woodland. I really like that and the texture and colour of the bark of the three front trees right on the edge of the wood

You are the snake, get around me
And it came with rain
Never seen what raining
So I just could lead the way
There’s nowhere to ride around me
No one around, it’s amazing
Elevating as it seems to you
But no, never mind
Never come out
Where to ride when it’s raining?
You were mine
So I’m with you baby
You were to put it else yeah baby
You were right, you made it
You were alright
Managed to get up close to a family of Canada geese close to the shore of Shearwater Lkae on the edge of Wiltshire's Longleat estate.

For the group, Macro Mondays, and this week's theme: "The Odd One." Two "odd ones" here: 1. Two of the knives are American Flag knives and the odd one is a Christmas theme; 2. Two of the knives are emblazoned with the Swiss Army Logo, and the other is not.
Happy Macro Monday!

Today, storms missed Cheyenne like there was an invisible barrier over the city. For two hours before sunset, this thunderstorm moved out of northeast Colorado to the northwest (everything was moving east all day) and died minutes after this image just south of Pine Bluffs, Wyoming. It would have been an epic lightning show but at least I got to see a thunderset (thunderstorm at sunset).
This storm was 50 miles away.
Picture of the Day
You know you are starting to get a bit bored with COVID routines when you start paying a bit more attention to the ducks at your local park. On our walk yesterday, I saw this guy in the pen where all the other common ducks and swans hang out. The colouring around his eye is what caught my eye at first. Then I checked out the ring of white feathers around his neck. He/she had some lovely coloring in his feathers. It was the only duck of it’s kind that I could see which made him an odd duck for this scene. I hope he/she is not trying to escape his Red Zone! Happy Wing Wednesday!

In winter/spring, both King Penguins will have to go to sea, in order for them to feed the large chicks. The result is a large creche of chicks, with the occasional adult penguin clearly standing out from the crowd.
