(Poecile palustris - Marsh Tit)
La plus aimable avec les autres oiseaux et spécialement
avec les autres mésanges,/
The friendliest with other birds and especially
with the other tits,/
when wandering with Marnie in our local park. Cold but clear, ideal for seeing the moon rising just after the sun set. We enjoyed it so much we spent quite a long time out, plus walking back home again. Twenty million things left undone, but this is a bit of freedom.
Not sure when I first heard Lowell George, along with Little Feat, but some music can't be forgotten, these words say it all for me.

Many thanks for all your views and comments my friends, here on Flickr. May you be free from anxiety and too much to do 😃 !
When out for a bike ride last week I was delighted to see that a local farmer had planted a wildflower mix in the set-aside adjacent to his wheat crop.
Actually it was double delight since the only poppies that I had seen up to this point were some mega-sized cultivated ones in the sand dunes at Alnmouth which don't count as wildflowers in my book!
De plus en plus nombreuses, de plus en plus concernées.

Cropped and then used Adobe photoshop beta cosmos 11 effect. Big thanks to John Lunt for suggesting I use this particular effect in this manner!*
Ailsa Craig from Turnberry, Ayrshire, Scotland.
I took my new EOSR to the coast at Turnberry, Scotland last night to get more familiar with the controls. I was treated to a sunset of incredible clarity and colour. It was so reminiscent of my trips to Portugal.
This is a 5 sec exposure taken 45 mins after sunset. The sky was a warm magenta violet with a band of burnt orange. I found some nice compositions with the flows of water in the sand leading the eye out to Ailsa Craig. I like how the only two tiny clouds in the sky were positioned too. Stunning.
Ailsa Craig is a 340m tall volcanic plug 10 miles off the coast that is the source of floorless blue granite for all the world's curling stones.

La salle capitulaire, ou salle du chapitre, est la salle où la communauté religieuse se réunit quotidiennement. Au matin, on y discute de l'actualité de l'abbaye : admission au noviciat, élection, réception de personnalité, lecture des annonces ou proclamations de l'évêque ou du pape. En soirée, on y lit un chapitre de la règle ainsi que des textes édifiants. C'est le lieu le plus important concernant l'organisation de la vie monastique.
La salle capitulaire actuelle de Fontevraud a été érigée sous l'abbatiat de Louise de Bourbon, entre 1534 et 1575 à partir de 1541. Elle est constituée d'une voûte d'ogives à six travées retombant sur des culots ainsi que sur deux colonnes, courtes et fines. Elle s'ouvre par un portail richement orné ainsi que par deux baies géminées de part et d'autre de celui-ci.
The Chapter Room, or Chapter Room, is the room where the religious community meets daily. In the morning, it discusses the news of the abbey: admission to the novitiate, election, reception of personality, reading announcements or proclamations of the bishop or the pope. In the evening, we read a chapter of the rule and edifying texts. This is the most important place concerning the organization of monastic life.
The present capitulary room of Fontevraud was erected under the abbey of Louise de Bourbon, between 1534 and 1575 from 1541. It consists of a vault of warheads with six bays falling on bases and on two columns, short and fine. It opens with a richly decorated portal and two twin bays on both sides of it

C'était la route pour aller au travail pendant un cours moment. Le moulin qui se situe dans le marais d'Olonne est présent sur cette terre depuis bien plus longtemps que moi. Datant du XVII siècle (voir plus) et rénové récemment. Sa présence dans le marais offre un joli panorama sur la charmante citée de l'Île-d'Olonne.
Bref le marais est superbe à toute les saisons, la forêt domaniale d'Olonne qui lui succède en bord de mer est envoûtante en matinée. Les plages de la Paracou et Sauveterre qui s'ensuivent offre aussi un agréable moment d'égarement !

The Morgan Plus 8 is a sports car built by British car maker Morgan from 1968 to 2004 and again in revised form between 2012 and 2018. Its instant and enduring popularity has been credited with saving the company and keeping the company famous during the 36 years of its manufacture. Among Morgan enthusiasts, it is deeply associated with Peter Morgan, the owner-chairman behind its design.
Design
The development of the Plus 8 was led by Maurice Owen, an engineer taken on specifically for the role. The Plus 8 prototype was based on a modified chassis from the Plus 4, altered to accept the Rover alloy block 215 cu in (3.5 L) V8, purchased from GM-Buick in 1967. Plus 4's Moss gearbox was carried over and the Salisbury 7HA axle was uprated with a limited-slip differential. The chassis was developed in stages to accommodate gearbox changes in 1973 and 1976, 1995 the body widened in 1976 to accommodate the widened chassis and the wings widened to accommodate larger tires to handle the increasing power and trend for lower profile and wider tires. The original 1968 Plus 8 was 57 inches (1,400 mm) wide and the last was 64 inches (1,600 mm) (with an optional "widebody" at 67 inches (1,700 mm)) From the 1960s and (according to all auto magazines) through the 1980s for acceleration between 20-80mph, the Plus Eight was the fastest-accelerating UK production car. To this day, early Plus 8s are frequently the winners in the 1960-1970 class in the UK.
In 2002, Morgan created a "LeMans Edition" with similar exterior feature to the 1960s Plus 4 LeMans winner. In 2003, Morgan created a 35th year "Anniversary Edition" of the Plus 8. The 35th Anniversary model was built in 100 examples and has a walnut dashboard, mesh behind the grille bars, a "LeMans style" gear knob, and a badge on the rear panel. The original brochure also referenced the fact that the Plus 8 was to be discontinued the following year.
Following the discontinuation of the Rover V8, production of Plus 8 ended in 2004. A revised Aero, powered by a 4.8-litre BMW V8 engine, was placed on an Aero chassis, with Aero 8 suspension, axles, brakes, steering, gearbox, and altered wings was introduced in 2012, They also called this model "Plus 8" and it was sold concurrently with the Aero 8 from that date until the elimination of the Aero line-up in 2020.
In 2014, Morgan created another edition called the Plus 8 'Speedster' models based on the later Aero configuration noted above. It began as a limited edition, but production was not limited to the originally advertised 60 examples. This limited run forwent the traditional roof in favor of a small fly screen and hidden roll bars behind the front seats. Pitched as an entry-level Plus 8 model, they went on sale for £69,999.
Keukenhof est un très beau jardin de fleurs (32 hectares) avec plus de 7 millions de bulbes en fleurs chaque printemps. Symbole des Pays-Bas, il est un lieu unique dans le monde dédié à la tulipe.
Le parc de Keukenhof est situé à une distance proche d'une trentaine de kilomètres d'Amsterdam.
Keukenhof est l'un des plus grands jardins de fleurs au monde avec plus de 800 variétés différentes de tulipes et de nombreux autres types de fleurs qui fleurissent dans le parc chaque printemps.
Même les plus grands sceptiques sont impressionnés !
Le jardin est situé dans l'environnement boisé d'un château du 17ème siècle visible de l'autre coté de la route. Autrefois, le lieu était appelé Keukenduin, littéralement "la cuisine des dunes". Le nom Keukenduin vient du fait que les produits de la région des dunes, comme le gibier, le bétail et toutes sortes d'herbes et de baies, étaient destinés aux propriétaires du château. Pour ensuite devenir Keukenhof soit "Le potager" qui devait servir le château en légumes et en herbes aromatiques.
C'est 1949 que les jardins de Keukenhof sont créés sous l'impulsion du Maire de l'époque souhaitant valoriser le travail des horticulteurs. Depuis les producteur de bulbes de la région exposent chaque année leurs plus belles variétés de tulipes dans des massifs grandioses.
Keukenhof is a very beautiful flower garden (32 hectares) with more than 7 million flower bulbs each spring. Symbol of the Netherlands, it is a unique place in the world dedicated to the tulip.
Keukenhof Park is located at a distance of about thirty kilometers from Amsterdam.
Keukenhof is one of the largest flower gardens in the world with over 800 different varieties of tulips and many other types of flowers blooming in the park each spring.
Even the biggest skeptics are impressed!
The garden is set in the wooded surroundings of a 17th century chateau visible across the road. Formerly, the place was called Keukenduin, literally "the kitchen of the dunes". The name Keukenduin comes from the fact that the products of the dune region, such as game, cattle and all kinds of herbs and berries, were destined for the owners of the castle. To then become Keukenhof or "The vegetable garden" which was to serve the castle with vegetables and aromatic herbs.
It was in 1949 that the Keukenhof gardens were created at the instigation of the Mayor of the time, wishing to promote the work of horticulturists. Since then, bulb producers in the region have exhibited their most beautiful varieties of tulips each year in grandiose beds.
