It is so humbling to realize that we never walk the roads of life alone.
We experience things in our own context and have our own perceptions informed by our particular paths, but we are always stepping in the footfalls of another. We long to see new things and hear new sounds, but someone else’s eyes and ears have witnessed it all before us.
Nothing is new under the sun, and the shoulders we stand on are always a great reminder of this truth.
Don’t disregard the older generations around us as not being privy to the knowledge we acquire just because they see things differently. They may actually know something we don’t.
The champ's parents – Rosalio and Dionisia Pacquiao, hold on to the title belts of their son Manny, who now holds three in three different weight class and three boxing organizations, the first Asian to have such a feat. “Am qujte lucky the two of them met and made Manny Pacquiao,” quipped the champion boxer.
Yellow-bellied Prinia
(Prinia flaviventris)
Size of bird: 12 to 14cm
This small resident warbler stays within the long grass, hops from one grass stalk to another and frequently stands at the end of the tall stalks looking around or singing. It is also found at the back mangrove, roadside scrub and agricultural farmland. Usually heard singing with a distinctive and sudden "chip cheerere-up", it also gives out a low "waa" call that sounds like a kitten calling!
The characteristics of this bird are not easily observed because of its low flying habit. It was observed that the adults feed and move alone but during incubation and feeding of the young both parents remain together.
The Prinia's nest is built by weaving grass around few tall grass stalks to form a dome shaped nest with a side entrance. Predation of the eggs and nestlings by snakes and changeable lizards, heavy rains which cause the grass stalk supporting the nest to collapse do take a toll on the bird's breeding success.

After moving in their students, parents were invited to join Dr. Rob Pearigen, Millsaps College president, for a complimentary luncheon. Staff members in Student Life, Admissions, and the Business Office were present to answer questions about life at Millsaps.
From whence I sprang. My parents when my mom was pregnant with me. I guess this was taken in their apartment in Oakland.
I hate the long line of parents waiting to pick up there children from school. At least I'm not way back at the end....lol:)

La rentrée des classes, pour les professeurs comme pour le personnel de la ville dédié aux scolaires, se pose à J-1. Le trois septembre, la première adjointe Maryse Rodde les accueillait à l'école Jean-Macé et se faisait l’interprète du maire "à Marseille pour défendre les projets pour la ville". Il souhaitait remercier enseignants et personnels de service pour leur mobilisation afin d'assurer le plein succès de cette rentée. L'année commence grâce aux efforts consentis par la marie en terme de travaux, de matériel, de personnel et de projets.
My parents with me, I guess a few months old. They were about 25. My brother is the spitting image of my Dad.

Went to Shawbury Heath Monday eve (when I found the Horned hopper!) in the hope of finding the Parent bug I'd seen in cop a couple of weeks before.... to my surprise, she was on the leaf right next to the catkin where I'd spotted them before! Bit better light so a slightly better image, but still a bit awkward to get a decent shot!! Will go back in a few days to see how things progress, and hopefully, catch the nymphs too! :-)
