There are a couple of Rose bushes in my yard and I wait patiently each Spring for when they open for the very first time. I’m usually ready to take pictures to share here on Flickr. I’m amazed at the intricacy in which the pedals open and close so precisely. The tolerances are so minute. Someone’s done a grand job the engineering the beautiful Red Rose. Thanks for viewing my work. Stay safe. Keep smiling and be kind to everyone.

The lake, in its natural vastness 25/30km2 (up to 38km2), disappeared during the summer of 2021, with water remaining in the channels dug by the tributaries (in the middle of the empty wide basin) and in the small part dammed by man (less than 1% of its "normal" surface), which is the deepest part and therefore the one in which the water never disappears, at least until it disappears.
The owners of the modest boats, mostly used for fishing, in the course of 2021 (some already since 2003, indeed), seeing that the lake no longer filled up, "temporary" moved their mooring along the "new" banks, or those corresponding to the perennial part of the lake, precisely the embanked one.
In the past there have been several episodes of emptying, but they were shorter and this part of the lake was always full of water up to the edge of the embankment, with a constant level, also because the tributaries have always carried a bit of water up to here.
For the first time, starting from June 2022, the tributaries dried up, the pools in the parts dug by them dried up in July (as seen in the previous photos) and, during this period, the emptying of this part also began, for the first time, not more fed, mainly due to evaporation, which in summer is very intense.
The "constant" part of the lake, artificially dammed, for the first time has decreased its water level and we are now about 5 meters below the standard, a standard level that is already 2 or 3 meters below the average of the full lake.
We ought not to ask why the human mind troubles to fathom the secrets of the universe. The diversity of the phenomena of nature is so great, and the treasures hidden in the skies so rich, precisely in order that the human mind shall never be lacking in fresh nourishment.

The caterpillar of the fork-tailed moth, or more precisely the large fork-tailed moth (Cerura vinula), is a striking appearance with a forked abdomen that is raised when threatened. It is bright green in color and has a black-brown, white-edged dorsal pattern. The caterpillar is defensive and can spray formic acid when threatened

Felsenmeer, Lautertal - According to legend, two giants are said to have pelted each other with stones until they were both buried under it - sometimes you can hear the murmur of a brook under the stones that sounds like a voice .
Der Legende nach sollen sich zwei Riesen mit Steinen beworfen haben, bis sie beide darunter begraben wurden – manchmal hört man unter den Steinen das Rauschen des Baches, der wie eine Stimme klingt.
Das Felsenmeer auf dem Felsberg oberhalb von Lautertal-Reichenbach im Vorderen Odenwald ist eine Felsenlandschaft aus dunkelgrauem Quarzdiorit (genauer ein Hornblende-Biotit-Diorit), die durch Wollsackverwitterung entstand. Das Felsenmeer wurde bereits von den Römern und später durch die örtlichen Steinmetze zur Steingewinnung genutzt. Die Steinmetzen bezeichneten ihn als „Felsberg-Granit“, der heute nicht mehr abgebaut wird. Heute ist das Felsenmeer ein beliebtes Naherholungsgebiet und Ausflugsziel für Familien und Wanderer. Es liegt innerhalb des Naturschutzgebiets „Felsberg bei Reichenbach“. Am oberen Ende des Felsenmeers befindet sich eine kleine Quelle, deren Rinnsal zwischen den Felsen hinab ins Tal fließt und schließlich im Graulbach mündet.
The sea of rocks on the Felsberg above Lautertal-Reichenbach in the Vorderen Odenwald is a rocky landscape made of dark gray quartz diorite (more precisely a hornblende biotite diorite), which was created by weathering wool sacks. The sea of rocks was already used by the Romans and later by the local stonemasons for stone extraction. The stonemasons referred to it as "Felsberg granite", which is no longer mined today. Today the Felsenmeer is a popular local recreation area and excursion destination for families and hikers. It is located within the "Felsberg bei Reichenbach" nature reserve. At the upper end of the sea of rocks there is a small spring whose rivulet flows down between the rocks into the valley and finally flows into the Graulbach.
The Sesto Sundial is an imposing natural monument: it is made up of five peaks which are all located in the municipality of Sesto and ... They tell the hour! It is a real natural clock and the course of the sun gives its name to the mountains on which it falls at the exact time: Top Nine, Top Ten, Top Eleven, Top twelve and Top One.
According to some theories, the name Sesto derives precisely from "Sexta ora" which in antiquity - during the Roman period - corresponded to noon: the rhythms and hours of the days were completely marked by the sun, from the moment in which it arose exactly when it was setting, and from dawn to what is midday for us exactly six hours passed.
The Sesto sundial is located near the Tre Cime di Lavaredo Natural Park. The right place for seen the hour is only from the Sesto Valley. They are the flagship of this heart of the Dolomites, so much so as to be considered its symbol. From the Bagni di Moso location you can enjoy the best position to see the sun's rays perfectly touching the mountain tops at the appointed time, except for 9 am and 10am when the light is covered by the mountains themselves.
Characteristic for the Top Nine (2,582 m), the lowest of the Sesto sundial, are the sedimentation layers which are also visible from afar. The Top Ten also called Croda Rossa (2,965 m), it is the pillar east of Sesto and was ascended for the first time by Michel Innerkofler and Roland von Eötvös in 1878.
The Elfer is reserved for experienced climbers can scale these 3,086-meter mountain, and you can find historical artifacts that date back to World War II. The Top Twelve is 2,917 meters high and is located near the Three Peaks, magical place for lovers of hiking and climbing. The Cima Una instead became famous in the world after 2007, the year in which a part of it collapsed covering the Val Fiscalina with dust and it is said that this place called "Heidegg" was originally inhabited or a place of worship frequented by pilgrims and believers .

Suedbahnhotel Semmering, Semmering, Austria
"The original Suedbahnhotel Semmering (also called “Hotel Semmering” or “First Suedbahnhotel”) was the 1st Hotel am Semmering at all and was opened in 1882 at the foot of Pinkenkogel Mountain–at precisely 1000 m above sea level. The Suedbahnhotel am Semmering was one of several grand hotels along the Suedbahn route from Vienna to Triest which were commissioned in order to stimulate the tourism in the respective regions and also the Suedbahn route from the privileged K. u. k. Suedbahngesellschaft. Semmering was already easy to reach at this time through the pioneering accomplishment of the Semmering Railways and was consequently expanded to create a popular holiday and spa resort. Semmering was popular with Viennese society as well as with the multi-national guests from all levels of the royal monarchy. Fin de Siècle and Belle Époche are two eras at the end of the 19th century and/or at the beginning of the 20th century which were characteristic for the Suedbahnhotel Semmering, but not just from social-political and sports history perspectives. A section of the Austrian tourism history also had its start here.
Currently, the opportunity exists to acquire the fairy-tale and spaciously-constructed “Second Suedbahnhotel” in order to be able to continue to develop it with a corresponding usage concept and to be able to sustainably preserve a unique architectural jewel. The Suedbahnhotel Semmering is by no means dead: It is merely sleeping and waiting to be kissed to be awakened..."

This cavern offers a completely ride-through cave experience on propane-powered Jeep-drawn trams.
Fantastic Caverns was discovered in 1862 by an Ozarks farmer -- or more precisely, by his dog, who crawled through a small entrance in a hillside. It wasn't until five years after its discovery that the first exploration of Fantastic Caverns took place: twelve women from Springfield, answering a newspaper ad seeking explorers, ventured into the cave. Fantastic Caverns is one of more than 7,300 documented caves in Missouri, and more are still being discovered. Missouri is called The Cave State.
So, there I was on Pelican Beach, stumbling across what I initially took to be a horse, more precisely a sea-horse. The mythical creature of the beach log variety. It had a certain equine look, if you squinted and ignored the lack of legs and general horse-ness. But hey, who am I to be a neigh-sayer?
It was wedged so deeply in the sand, must have been some powerful seas wash it up. I suppose the seaweed mane might’ve just washed up on it, or maybe an enterprising mermaid did a little redecorating — who knows? Not many people wander this far down the beach, so it remains a mystery for the ages.
It definitely qualifies as a log with more personality than most that I have encountered!
Est une espèce de passereaux. Auparavant placé dans la famille des Turdidae, il figure actuellement, avec d'autres représentants de celle-ci (particulièrement les tariers et les traquets), dans celle des Muscicapidae. Le mâle et la femelle sont presque identiques, avec une couronne, des ailes, le dessus et la queue de couleur brune, une bande grise sur les côtés de la gorge, un ventre blanc et la fameuse « gorge rouge », plus précisément de couleur orange foncé tirant vers le rouge. Bien que sa face et sa poitrine soient plus orangées que rougeâtres, cet oiseau prend le nom familier de rouge-gorge au Moyen Âge. Cette contradiction est due à ce que la dénomination de la couleur orange n'apparaît en Europe qu'au xvie siècle, par la diffusion sur ce continent de l'orange douce (le fruit) rapportée à la fin du xve siècle par les Portugais de Ceylan et de Chine.
L'âge maximal d'un rouge-gorge est de 18 ans.

Is a species of passerines. Previously placed in the Turdidae family, it currently appears, along with other representatives of this family (particularly augers and wheatear), in that of the Muscicapidae. The male and the female are almost identical, with a crown, wings, upper and tail of brown color, a gray band on the sides of the throat, a white belly and the famous "red throat", more precisely of color. dark orange tending to red. Although its face and chest are more orange than reddish, this bird took the colloquial name of robin in the Middle Ages. This contradiction is due to the fact that the name of the color orange does not appear in Europe until the sixteenth century, by the distribution on this continent of the sweet orange (the fruit) reported at the end of the fifteenth century by the Portuguese of Ceylon and China.
The maximum age for a robin is 18.

Nearby the Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavilion) is the Ryoanji Temple (龍安寺 or 竜安寺, Temple of the peaceful Dragon, Ryōanji), Kyoto, Japan.
The temple's name is synonymous with the temple's famous Zen garden, the karesansui (枯山水 or dry landscape), Rock Garden.
The temple and its gardens are listed as one of the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto, and as an UNESCO World Heritage.
Perhaps you see it was still raining…;-))
""This simple and remarkable garden measures only 25 meters from east to west and 10 meters from south to north.
The rectangle Zen Garden is completely different from the gorgeous gardens of court nobles constructed in the Middle Ages. No trees are to be seen; only 15 rocks and white gravel are used in the garden.
The walls are made of clay boiled in oil. As time went by, the peculiar design was made of itself by the oil that seeped out.
This international famous rock garden is said to be created at the end of Muromachi Period (around 1500), by a highly respected Zen monk, Tokuho Zenketsu.""
Information - from the brochure
An interesting feature of the garden's design is that from any vantage point at least one of the rocks is always hidden from the viewer.
""Meaning of the garden.
Like any work of art, the artistic garden of Ryōan-ji is also open to interpretation, or scientific research into possible meanings. Many different theories have been put forward inside and outside Japan about what the garden is supposed to represent, from islands in a stream, to swimming baby tigers to the peaks of mountains rising above to theories about secrets of geometry or of the rules of equilibrium of odd numbers.
Garden historian Gunter Nitschke wrote: "The garden at Ryōan-ji does not symbolize anything, or more precisely, to avoid any misunderstanding, the garden of Ryōan-ji does not symbolize, nor does it have the value of reproducing a natural beauty that one can find in the real or mythical world. I consider it to be an abstract composition of 'natural' objects in space, a composition whose function is to incite meditation.""

Located in the Tre Cime Nature Park. Tre Cime (three summits) in the Alps, at 2,999 m altitude, more precisely in the Dolomites, on the border between Veneto and southern Italian Tyrol in Italy, and considered as the most remarkable natural wonder in the Dolomites.
The variety of tones of the Italian lakes really impresses me.
This one has this pretty pale green color.
I don't know if you feel the same, but whenever I'm at a waterfall I have a little chaos in my head and I'm nervous. Especially with this one, it is our largest and most beautiful.
It is difficult to reach and there is a high risk of slipping. I can do that, but precisely because it is so difficult to get there, I always have to concentrate on the camera settings. I mostly forget something. ♥ this place.
Thank you for visiting and taking the time to watch, I really appreciate it!

Or more precisely the king of his mother's castle. This is a bust of Karl XI (Charles XI) at Drottningholm palace - which as built on order from his mother the queen Hedvig Eleonora - at the time queen dowager but also regent for her son Karl (Charles) XI who was underage when his father (Karl X) died.
The palace was designed by one of Sweden's most well known architects: Nicodemus Tessin the Elder, and after his death the work was continued on by his (equally famous) son Nicodemus Tessin the Younger. The queen used it as a summer residence, and as a place for hunting. The palace continued to be in fashion throughout the 18th century, and got a partly rococo interior during the time of queen Lovisa Ulrika.
But the place fell out of fashion with the new Bernadotte dynasty in the early 19th century, being to closely connected with the earlier regime. The last new add-ons to the place was electricity and modern plumbing at the beginning of the 20th century - after that the focus has been on conservation and preservation. The royal family has lived there since 1981.
Before I headed to Looking Glass Falls I stopped because I saw this particular scene. Well, not precisely. The clouds had just begun cresting the mountain tops, for around ten minutes I spent some time trying a few compositions, nothing was really working for me. Finally, as the clouds began to descend and eventually framed this. So, like any photographer presented with an opportunity, I shot it. I'm not completely pleased with the outcome, the mist makes it appear as though some areas are out of focus. Despite that, the light is nice, the framing is interesting, leads to some intrigue. Give me your thoughts.

Timmy loves his Advent calendar - or more precisely, its contents. When I get up in the morning, he runs ahead and sits down next to it expectantly. While I look for the door, open it, take out the bag and open it, he keeps nudging me with his head to hurry up. During the day, too, he sits in front of it again and again and looks expectantly.
He doesn't want to understand the concept of "one door a day" :-)
Happy Caturday 19.12.2020 "Colorful"
Well... here we have a rare occasion of one that is precisely laid out... however, it is still stony.
The historic sandstone bridge was built by the Bavarian Prince Regent Luitpold in 1889 to make it easier for the winegrowers with their grapes and wines to reach the trading houses in Bad Kreuznach. The Luitpold Bridge separated the Kingdom of Bavaria (more precisely the Bavarian Palatinate) from Prussia and is today the town's landmark.
Sometimes we put our safety in concrete stuff because they seem strong and immutable, but the real strength that we have is precisely in the transformation, that smooth and tenuous line that connects us to who/what we really are.

May flower: the cactus that offers beauty instead of thorns:
The May flower - common name of the species Schlumbergera truncata - is one of those plants that we tend to despise most of the year. It is, after all, a true botanical commonplace:
since the days of grandma's gardens, it has been hanging around on any balcony or housed in cachepots on some furniture in the living room. It is also a champion of popularity in floras - ready to be pushed by sellers every time the consumer searches for a plant “for beginners”.
This is all true, yes. But, as I was able to feel myself this week, the fact that it is party rice does not eliminate the extraordinary value and the pleasure of having a May flower inside the house. And pleasure is precisely in the miracle that works, out of nowhere, in your metabolism. During most of the year, the May flower is a discreet little thing, with its branches formed by fragile and evergreen buds releasing at most new buds. Suddenly, sometime between the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, behold that dull plant explodes in buttons with extremely striking shapes and colors - mine, for example, pump out between May and July.
flic.kr/p/2j5vm49
After flowering, it often withers, loses part of the buds and spends the rest of the year trying to recover from the excruciating effort of flowering.
The May flower is from the cactus family, but has no thorns. In its original habitat, the Atlantic Forest, it presents an epiphyte behavior. In other words: like orchids and many bromeliads, it uses tree trunks as a support. Thanks to horticultural improvement, the variety of colors available on the market today is immense. You can splurge, as you can see in this photo that illustrates this description, the flower of May WHITE.
Despite the fact that the May flower is a peaceful and favorable cultivation plant, some precautions are mandatory to avoid unpleasantness. Here is a basic guide to success:
1) SOIL - As it is a succulent, the may flower requires perfect drainage. She does, however, enjoy a lot of organic matter. So, plant it in pots with holes, filled with pebbles and sand at the bottom and the remaining two thirds completed with vegetable soil. Curiosity: if these conditions are met, the May flower can grow a lot and live for years in small pots.
2) WATERING - Do not overdo it and do not leave dishes filled with water under the pot, to avoid waterlogging and root rot. But also be sure to water frequently - two to four times a week, depending on the weather. She likes the slightly damp earth.
3) LUZ - This is, perhaps, the main catch. The May flower hates receiving direct sunlight, but enjoys well-lit environments. The right places for her, therefore, are balconies and bright interiors, but fresh. Or under the treetops.
4) FLOWERING - The May flower releases its buds when two variables combine: the nights become longer and the minimum temperatures are close to 10-15 degrees. And so it lives up to its name: in the Southeast of Brazil, these ideal conditions are usually registered between mid-May and the end of June.
5) POST-FLOWERING STRESS - May flower is a perennial species, that is, it does not die after giving flowers. Often, however, it cannot withstand the thud of its metabolic explosion: after so much effort, the stem buds become wilted and break easily. In the extreme, the plant dies from stress. To avoid this, it is necessary to redouble the care with nutrition. After flowering, increase the watering slightly and add a little earthworm humus or phosphorus-rich fertilizer (the “P” of the renowned NPK trio).
Last tip: take advantage of the loose buds to produce new seedlings. It's very easy, just fix a piece of them in moist soil.

El Rio Tinto recibe su nombre por el color rojo intenso de sus aguas y recorre 100 km atravesando la provincia de Huelva (Andalucía, Sur de España).
El color rojo es debido a la presencia de cationes de metales pesados erosionados por causa de la acidez de las aguas (ph tamponado de 2.4, muy ácido). La abundancia de minerales de Pirita y Calcopirita (sulfuros de hierro y cobre) y la presencia de unas extrañas bacterias acidófilas que oxidan estos minerales, generan el ácido sulfúrico que a la postre re-alimenta el proceso de lixiviado de los metales.
En el agua del rio sobreviven bacterias, microorganismos y vida en condiciones extremas, la NASA lo está estudiando y ha descrito recientemente este microsistema como el más parecido a Marte que podemos encontrar en la Tierra.
Los minerales de cobre, hierro, manganeso, …, se extraen en las explotaciones mineras de Rio Tinto desde hace 5000 años por íberos, fenicios, romanos y musulmanes, y ha sido explotada durante los dos últimos siglos por la compañía británica Rio Tinto Company Limited.
En el pequeño pueblo de Riotinto se pueden encontrar casas Victorianas, precisamente en los barrios que habitaron los Ingleses durante ese tiempo.
Para la visita y el recorrido del cauce del rio puedes contar con Fieldwork Riotinto (rio y minas) .
In my por English:
Rio Tinto is named for the deep red color of its waters and travels 100 km through the province of Huelva (Andalucía, southern Spain).
The red color is due to the presence of heavy metal cations eroded because the acidity of the water (pH 2.4 buffered, strongly acidic). The abundance of minerals Pyrite and Chalcopyrite (copper and iron sulfides) and the presence of strange acidophilus bacteria that oxidize these minerals, generate the sulfuric acid media that eventually re-feeds the process of leaching of metals.
In the river water surviving bacteria, microorganisms and life in extreme conditions, NASA is studying this media and has recently described this microsystem as the closest thing to Mars on Earth can find.
Copper, iron, manganese, ..., are extracted in the mines of Rio Tinto for 5000 years by Iberians, Phoenicians, Romans and Muslims, and has been exploited for the last two centuries by the British company Rio Tinto Company Limited .
In the small town of Rio Tinto Victorian houses can be found precisely in neighborhoods inhabited by the English people during that time.
To visit and travel the river bed you can count on Fieldwork Riotinto (rio and mines visits).

The extraordinary jazz saxophonist Pharoah Sanders, shot with the Olympus E-510.
I was seated beside Amiri Baraka at Birdland in New York City for this extraordinary performance. Mr. Baraka shared with me the story of how Sanders earned the sobriquet Pharoah. That's how Sanders spells his name, unlike the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt. It seems that the young Farrell Sanders was up north from his home in Arkansas playing a NYC gig when Baraka was in the audience and thought he heard him say "Pharaoh." Mr. Baraka, in a review for either Downbeat or Metronome, he couldn't precisely recall, wrote the name how he heard it. Upon reading the review Mr. Sanders liked the sound of it and it stuck.

On a walk down the wooded lane to the pond late morning I heard a rustle and then saw a doe scamper away......not uncommon in the area, but less so precisely there. I continued on to the pond, drew it all in. After a while, returned down the path and heard another stir - much quieter. The spots stood out on this lovely little fawn far enough away as it teetered on its little spindly legs for a few steps and then it settled back down. Quickly took the picture from a distance (hence not so great of an image) and got out as quickly as possible. The mother no doubt was watching it all from her safe distance, and also no doubt returned to her fawn shortly thereafter.
Please note this is heavily cropped and I was around 15 feet away - which was the distance of where I was on the path and where it was off it.
24-January-2022: the wilderness of the Dolomites of the left-Piave river, on the one hand limits accessibility somewhat, especially in winter, with routes almost all reserved for trained mountaineers, on the other it offers glimpses of sure visual impact, especially from the valley, which is at low altitude and where all these massifs rise with considerable prominence.
Their angularity and strong slope, with little or no vegetation and the dolomitic rock that distinguishes them already starting from the valley, further enhances them, although, precisely because of their morphology, they are not suitable for accumulating large quantities of snow.
Precisely at the end of the trail, this sapling not only clings on for life, but would appear to be thriving. Considering the ferocity of the weather were this tree (yes tree) has chosen to live, it is one very hearty little fellow.
Between rocks, literally on the edge, and with the ocean beyond, one ponders if there might be a metaphor present. ie, tough as nails.

Among the highest clouds of the troposphere, the "Cirrus" genus "spissatus" species often originate from the anvil of a cumulonimbus, when it reaches the limit of the troposphere spreading horizontally, in its menacing variant "capillatus incus", composed precisely of small ice crystals at high altitude (up to 12.000m at 45° latitude), which define exactly the "Cirrus" genus(type) kind of clouds
In this case, towards the Trieste gulf, there is a single TS cell in the process of dissolution, while the frontal view makes the perspective of these clouds radial, therefore thus forming part of the "radiatus" variety, that is: "Cirrus spissatus radiatus".
The winds at the altitude of these clouds (above 7000m/300hpas), often driven by the jet stream, are much stronger than those of the lower layers, therefore the anvil cirrus stretch a lot in the direction in which the winds move (leeward part of the thunderstorm cell) and very quickly so as to extend over vast areas in a few tens of minutes.
In case of supercells or multicells, whose (multiple) anvils become an enormous one, the areas downwind of these phenomena can see the sky completely covered by these clouds, which are the thickest of the cirrus genus.
The strong winds carry these clouds away from the original cell, even for hundreds of kilometres, while the humidity at high altitudes guarantees them a long life, even many hours after that the thunderstorm, generated them, has died down.
Sometimes they can be observed in the early morning as residues of the heat t-storms of the previous evening which occurred at a great distance from the observation site.

Its full name is Scala Contarini del Bovolo, and it is the most famous spiral staircase in Venice, adjacent to the building that gives it its name. Palazzo Contarini del Bovolo is a magnificent example of Venetian Gothic architecture, and is located in the San Marco district, right in the tourist centre. Yet you have to look for it to find it, because it is difficult to pass in front of it as it is a building set in a dead end. Moreover, the external facade on the Rio San Luca has a simple, elegant but not particularly peculiar appearance. It is the one that overlooks the internal courtyard, known as the Corte del Maltese, that presents itself in all its magic.
Built between the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the staircase was added to the Palazzo dei Contarini only later, which was called 'del bovolo' due to its spiral shape - the spiral was precisely called 'bovolo' in Venetian. It was not strange for the time to make helical stairs, but what makes the staircase of Palazzo Contarini unique is its structure and size. 26 meters high, with a diameter of 4.7, it is made up of bricks and Istrian stone, and is made up of loggias and arches throughout its height. The 80 monolithic steps go up counterclockwise, and lead to a domed belvedere that offers a wonderful view over the roofs of the city. The arches and columns that run its entire length give the staircase a peculiar appearance, in which some experts see a sort of link between the Gothic period and the Renaissance.

Est une espèce de passereaux. Auparavant placé dans la famille des Turdidae, il figure actuellement, avec d'autres représentants de celle-ci (particulièrement les tariers et les traquets), dans celle des Muscicapidae. Le mâle et la femelle sont presque identiques, avec une couronne, des ailes, le dessus et la queue de couleur brune, une bande grise sur les côtés de la gorge, un ventre blanc et la fameuse « gorge rouge », plus précisément de couleur orange foncé tirant vers le rouge. Bien que sa face et sa poitrine soient plus orangées que rougeâtres, cet oiseau prend le nom familier de rouge-gorge au Moyen Âge. Cette contradiction est due à ce que la dénomination de la couleur orange n'apparaît en Europe qu'au xvie siècle, par la diffusion sur ce continent de l'orange douce (le fruit) rapportée à la fin du xve siècle par les Portugais de Ceylan et de Chine.
L'âge maximal d'un rouge-gorge est de 18 ans.

Is a species of passerines. Previously placed in the Turdidae family, it currently appears, along with other representatives of this family (particularly augers and wheatear), in that of the Muscicapidae. The male and the female are almost identical, with a crown, wings, upper and tail of brown color, a gray band on the sides of the throat, a white belly and the famous "red throat", more precisely of color. dark orange tending to red. Although its face and chest are more orange than reddish, this bird took the colloquial name of robin in the Middle Ages. This contradiction is due to the fact that the name of the color orange does not appear in Europe until the sixteenth century, by the distribution on this continent of the sweet orange (the fruit) reported at the end of the fifteenth century by the Portuguese of Ceylon and China.
The maximum age for a robin is 18.
