Great Spotted Woodpecker - Dendrocopus Major
The great spotted woodpecker occurs in all types of woodlands and is catholic in its diet, being capable of extracting seeds from pine cones, insect larvae from inside trees or eggs and chicks of other birds from their nests. It breeds in holes excavated in living or dead trees, unlined apart from wood chips. The typical clutch is four to six glossy white eggs. Both parents incubate the eggs, feed the chicks and keep the nest clean. When the young fledge they are fed by the adults for about ten days, each parent taking responsibility for feeding part of the brood.
The great spotted woodpecker occurs in Eurasia from the British Isles to Japan, and in North Africa from Morocco to Tunisia, and it is absent only from those areas too cold or dry to have suitable woodland habitat. It is found in a wide variety of woodlands, broadleaf, coniferous or mixed, and in modified habitats like parks, gardens and olive groves. It occurs from sea-level to the tree line, up to 2,000 m (6,600 ft) in Europe, 2,200 m (7,200 ft) in Morocco and 2,500 m (8,200 ft) in Central Asia.
The great spotted woodpecker became extinct in the island of Ireland in the seventeenth century, due to deforestation, but the island was naturally recolonised by this species, with the first proven nesting in County Down in 2007. Its expansion in range is continuing, with breeding proven or suspected in at least 10 counties by 2013, with the main concentration in Down and County Wicklow. Genetic evidence shows the birds to be of British, rather than Scandinavian, ancestry, with the populations in Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic having separate origins. The great spotted woodpecker was also found to have been nesting in the Isle of Man from 2009.

"The Syndics," also known as "The Sampling Officials," is a renowned painting created by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn in 1662. It is an exceptional example of group portraiture from the Dutch Golden Age, depicting five men gathered around a table, engaged in their duties as syndics (officers) of the Amsterdam Drapers' Guild.
The painting is notable for its meticulous attention to detail and Rembrandt's skillful use of light and shadow. The figures are positioned in a semi-circle around the table, with their faces illuminated by a strong light source from the left. This dramatic lighting technique creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's attention to the individual expressions and gestures of the syndics.
Each syndic is portrayed with distinctive characteristics, capturing their roles and personalities within the guild. Rembrandt expertly renders their varied facial features, clothing, and accessories, demonstrating his mastery in capturing human likeness and conveying individuality. The syndics are shown examining fabric samples, which symbolize their responsibility for regulating quality and standards within the textile industry.
"The Syndics" is regarded as one of Rembrandt's most celebrated works and is highly regarded for its technical brilliance and psychological depth. The painting exemplifies his ability to infuse ordinary subjects with dignity and introspection, elevating them beyond mere representation. It also reflects the artist's deep understanding of human nature, emphasizing the individuality and humanity of each syndic.
Today, "The Syndics" is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to captivate visitors with its remarkable craftsmanship and profound insight into the human condition. It stands as a testament to Rembrandt's enduring legacy as one of the greatest painters in Western art history.

Theodore Roosevelt
The slogan 'The buck stops here' is a promise that responsibility will not be passed on to anyone else. What's the origin of the phrase 'The buck stops here'? U.S. president Harry S. Truman had a sign on his desk with 'The buck stops here' inscribed on it.
NBC News’ Kristin Welker asked the president(Trump) if he is to blame for the lag in testing. “No, I don’t take responsibility at all,” he responded before quickly moving to his tried and true strategy: blame Obama. “We were given rules, regulations, and specifications from a different time.”
But that simply isn’t true. No remaining Obama-era regulation has prevented the administration from rolling out tests.
VOTE!! RESIST!! kick our president out of office at the polls!! stay safe and well :-)

Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares - Sevilla
El Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de la ciudad de Sevilla (Andalucía, España) está localizado en la plaza de América del parque de María Luisa. Al otro lado de la plaza se encuentra el Museo Arqueológico. Fue el pabellón de Arte Antiguo de la Exposición Iberoamericana de 1929.
Fue planteado como pabellón de Industrias, Manufacturas y Artes Decorativas. Finalmente, se le llamó pabellón de Arte Antiguo e Industrias Artísticas. Se trata de un edificio proyectado en 1913 y construido en 1914 por el arquitecto Aníbal González, autor también de los otros edificios levantados en la misma plaza de América. Es de ladrillo visto con motivos decorativos de cerámica. Por su estilo arquitectónico, fue conocido como el pabellón Mudéjar.
En principio constaba de dos plantas sobre una cámara de aireación para evitar la humedad. Se realiza una mejora durante la década de 1960 en la planta principal, que tenía más de doce metros de altura, y se dividió con una planta artificial (corresponde a la planta primera) por el arquitecto Antonio Delgado y Roig. En 1972 se unen las plantas con una gran escalera de caracol que diseña el arquitecto José Galnares Sagastizábal, trabajo que realiza después de que la construcción fuese designada para albergar el museo por el Decreto de Creación del Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de Sevilla, con fecha de 23 de marzo de 1972, constituido como una sección del Museo de Bellas Artes.
Sus funciones como museo se desarrollan desde el 4 de marzo de 1973, fecha en que abre sus puertas al público.

Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville
The Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville (Spanish: Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares) is a museum in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, located in the María Luisa Park, across the Plaza de América from the Provincial Archeological Museum.
The museum occupies the Mudéjar Pavilion (Pabellón Mudéjar) designed by Aníbal González and built in 1914. It served as an art pavilion, the Pabellón de Arte Antiguo, for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, when Aníbal González had the opportunity to design several additional permanent buildings for the plaza. The exterior is ceramic over brick, and has three doors with archivolts adorned with glazed tiles (azulejos).[citation needed]
The building originally consisted of two stories over an aeration chamber (necessary because of the humidity). In the 1960s, the main floor, originally over 12 metres (39 ft) high, was divided in two, with an intermediate level added by architect Delgado Roig. In 1972, as part of the preparations for the current museum, the various stories of the building were connected by a grand spiral staircase designed by José Galnares Sagastizábal.
The museum was established by a decree of 23 March 1972, initially as a section of the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville. It opened its doors to the public 4 March 1973.[2] For the next seven years, the museum fell under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education and Science, but the city government occupied more than half of the poorly maintained building. Neither institution took full responsibility. This situation led to a series of temporary closures. In 1976, the electric bill could not be paid, and the museum had to be shut until it could get power again. In 1979, heavy rains damaged the interior.

"Responsibility is the price of greatness" -Winston Churchill
Took this one also at the Oklahoma City Bombing memorial. This tree is the only thing that withstood the blast zone. Strong and stubborn enough not to fall. I suppose that's how we should all live our lives.
Have a wonderful Friday my friends.
A beautiful Lioness we spotted while on a 2023 photo safari in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. She stopped her search for prey just long enough to show me those eyes.
In the savannas of Africa, female lions play a crucial and dynamic role in their familial groups, shaping the social structure and bearing the responsibility for the pride’s survival. Contrary to some common misconceptions, lion prides operate within a matriarchal social structure, where females hold the key roles in decision-making and coordination.
Lionesses are the primary hunters within the pride. Their exceptional teamwork and strategic approach to hunting are essential for the pride’s survival and well-being. Together, they deploy strategic hunting techniques, such as coordinated flanking and ambushing, to outwit their prey. Their synchronized efforts increase the likelihood of a successful hunt to secure food for the entire pride.
Male lions are typically responsible for protecting their pride from other males. However, the females play a vital role in defending the pride’s territory against threats such as leopards, hyenas, neighboring prides, and occasionally other males. The survival of a pride often hinges on the lionesses’ ability to protect their territory.
The lionesses’ strong maternal instincts are at the foundation of the pride’s social bonds. As a group, they are responsible for raising and nurturing the cubs. They teach essential survival skills, including hunting techniques and social behaviors, which ensure the continuity of the pride’s legacy. The pride communicates through vocalizations and body language, fostering a strong sense of community. The bonds formed among females contribute to the overall success and stability of the group.
In the lion pride, females emerge as the unsung heroes, weaving together the threads of survival, protection, and legacy. Their role as huntresses, defenders, nurturers, and leaders is integral to the pride’s success.

Taking responsibility does not mean accepting the consequences.
To bear responsibility means to be self-aware of one's own inner echo. Our own echo that is sent back into the world.
I need to ground myself and listen to my own echo ♥

"Our humanity rests upon a series of learned behaviors, woven together into patterns that are infinitely fragile and never directly inherited."
Margaret Mead
Pour it all together
I don’t set the measure
only my fate bears responsibility
baby it’s whatever
this magical texture
fills up the void inside of me
think I learned my lesson
on another level
take me home and put me straight to sleep
I gotta confess
first I felt refreshed
but the aftertaste is bittersweet
I’m a psychedelic addict
la-lay me down on the mattress
will you just take off my panties
and put the shower on
warning content’s graphic
when the water washes away the rebel
you should pick it up and grab it
before it’s gone

As many times as I have met Justin (sort of "pictured", under the orange blanket), I have never known him to NOT be sharing an abode with Hillbilly. Usually he can be found inside Hillbilly's little shack, making the living quarters even more constrictive.
Today was the first time I have seen him out on the street in colder weather. Even Hillbilly popped his head out and seemed surprised that Justin was out on the sidewalk.
I cannot imagine that "civic responsibility" about 6 ' distancing has somehow made it into the homeless community. I have to assume that is merely coincidence. Though it does seem to be curious timing.

"I ask when it will be,
that man shall learn to live without killing,
and the wind shall come to rest."
Francesco Guggini, Auschwitz
On January 27, 1945, Soviet troops entered the Auschwitz concentration camp and revealed a horror that the world may have sensed, but for too long had ignored. For this reason, in 2005, the United Nations chose this date as the International Day of Remembrance, dedicated to all the victims of the Holocaust.
Today, twenty-one years after that symbolic act, we must ask ourselves whether that memory is truly alive. It seems that humanity itself, including the descendants of those who were victims of that horror, has forgotten the horror of the Holocaust. New massacres and new wars continue to stain our present with blood.
The number of atrocities is so great that we risk becoming accustomed to them: they pass before our eyes and, within just a few days, they are forgotten. October 7th massacre of Israel people, Gaza genocide, Iran massacre of civilians, Ukraine war, the extermination of the Kurdish people, the civil wars in Somalia and Sudan are only some of the conflicts in which the first victims continue to be innocent civilians.
In many countries, authoritarianism is becoming the norm, while armed militias kill, arrest (often using children as baits) and deported people that are only guilty of being different or protesting in a pacific way the regime,.
The Holocaust Memorial in Berlin is a place that must be visited with deep respect, because it reminds us that history can repeat itself. It warns us that violence, carried out in the name of an ideal, an interest, or too often in the name of a god, is a tragic and enduring part of human nature.
To remember is not only an act of memory — it is a responsibility toward the future.
"Io chiedo quando sara'
che l'uomo potra' imparare
a vivere senza ammazzare
e il vento riposera'"
Francesco Guggini "Auschtwitz"
Il 27 gennaio 1945 le truppe sovietiche entrarono nel campo di concentramento di Auschwitz e portarono alla luce un orrore che il mondo aveva forse intuito, ma troppo a lungo ignorato. Per questo motivo, nel 2005, le Nazioni Unite hanno scelto questa data come Giorno della Memoria, dedicato a tutte le vittime dell’Olocausto. Oggi, a distanza di ventuno anni da quel gesto simbolico, dobbiamo chiederci se quella memoria sia davvero viva. Sembra infatti che l’umanità, compresi i discendenti di coloro che furono vittime di quell’orrore, stia dimenticando. Nel frattempo, nuovi stermini e nuove guerre continuano a insanguinare il nostro presente. Gli orrori sono così numerosi che rischiamo di assuefarci ad essi: scorrono davanti ai nostri occhi e, nel giro di pochi giorni, vengono dimenticati. Il massacro del 7 Ottobre di civili israeliani, il genocidio di Gaza, il massacro di civili in Iran, l’Ucraina, lo sterminio del popolo curdo, le guerre civili in Somalia e in Sudan sono solo alcuni dei conflitti in cui le prime vittime continuano a essere civili innocenti. In molti Stati, inoltre, l’autoritarismo sta diventando la norma, mentre milizie armate uccidono, arrestano (spesso usando bambini come esca) e deportano impunemente persone la cui unica colpa e’ di apparire diversi o di protestare pacificamente contro il regime.
Il Memoriale dell’Olocausto di Berlino è un luogo che va visitato con grande rispetto, perché ci ricorda che la storia può ripetersi. Ci ammonisce sul fatto che la violenza, esercitata nel nome di un ideale, di un interesse o, troppo spesso, nel nome di un Dio, è una realtà tristemente presente nella natura umana.
Ricordare non è solo un atto di memoria, ma una responsabilità verso il futuro.

Thorbecke was the founder of Dutch parliamentary democracy in 1848. The new constitution brought direct elections and ministerial responsibility, extended parliamentary rights and introduced the possibility of dissolution of parliament. This constitution would eventually make the Netherlands a modern state (scource: wikipedia)

Acts 1:20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his house become deserted, and let there be no one to live in it,’ and ‘Let another take his position of responsibility.’”
True belonging is not passive. It's not the belonging that comes with just joining a group. It's not fitting in or pretending or selling out because it's safer. It's a practice that requires us to be vulnerable, get uncomfortable, and learn how to be present with people without sacrificing who we are.
Dr. Brené Brown
Belongingness entails an unwavering commitment to not simply tolerating and respecting difference, but to ensuring that all people are welcome and feel that they belong.
John A. Powell
Today, if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
Mother Theresa, Saint Teresa of Calcutta
The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people don't talk anymore, they don't sit down to talk and listen. They go to the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, update their status on the internet, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather around a fire and tell stories
Paulo Coelho
We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It's easy to say, ‘It's not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.
Fred Rogers
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
Winston Churchill
When we choose to wonder about people we don’t know, when we imagine their lives and listen for their stories, we begin to expand the circle of those we see as part of us.
Valarie Kaur
We must remain hopeful that a universal ethic of courage, caring, sharing, respect, radical compassion, and love will make a difference. We can never be too generous or too kind.
Marc Bekoff
I believe that we are here for each other, not against each other. Everything comes from an understanding that you are a gift in my life — whoever you are, whatever our differences.

I'm not politically minded but the caption fitted the image of a person lying on the sign outside this office block, wanted to ask him why he chose this platform for a rest but thought against it!
Adrienne stirred, the scent of wine lingering in the thick underground air. Her eyelids felt heavy, her head throbbing with the dull ache of indulgence. What a weird dream… more like a nightmare.
She nuzzled into the warmth pressing against her side. Then realized she was waking up somewhere unfamiliar. Who had she gone home with this time? She shifted slightly and felt an arm draped over her waist, their bodies tangled in the deep cushions of the worn leather sofa. Relief washed over her as she realized she was still dressed. Then she turned—Kayla---and the nightmare rushed back into focus.
Kayla groaned beside her, stretching lazily. “Remind me,” she muttered, voice rough with sleep, “whose idea was it to finish that second bottle?”
Adrienne let out a low, tired laugh. “Yours.”
Kayla cracked one eye open and shot her a suspicious look. “Liar.”
Adrienne smirked, shifting onto her side to face her.
Kayla stirred, stretching before offering a small, knowing smile. “Did you sleep well?”
“I slept.” Adrienne rubbed her temples, willing away the weight pressing against her skull. She exhaled slowly, then muttered, “Tell me yesterday didn’t happen.”
Kayla’s gaze softened—ok but only for a second. “You need to practice.” Her voice was quieter now, more serious.
Adrienne sighed, pressing her fingers to her forehead. “I know. But maybe we could just lay here for a while longer.”
Kayla sat up, pulling Adrienne with her. “You did great with the teleportation last night, but you have to learn to focus. If you don’t land exactly where you intend to jump, we’re dead.”
Adrienne inhaled sharply through her nose, the weight of responsibility settling against her chest. She was learning, but learning wasn’t enough. She had to master it.
Kayla pressed a firm hand to Adrienne’s knee, grounding her. “You were born for this. It’s in your in your blood. Now, close your eyes.”
Adrienne felt the hum of her device start, a faint vibration against her skin. She obeyed, letting the quiet of the apartment wrap around her, pressing in but never suffocating.
“Find the thread,” Kayla continued. “Focus on a place—then feel the pull. Don’t chase it. Feel it.”
Adrienne inhaled deeply, centering herself. Focus. The place, the pull.
She felt it—faint, distant, like the whisper of something just beyond her grasp.
“Let it bring you to the edge,” Kayla murmured. “But don’t fall. Just stand there. Balance.”
The air shifted around her. The apartment walls grew thinner—like layers peeling apart, revealing glimpses of elsewhere. The scent of dust and old books filled her senses. The university library. The room. She could see it, smell it.
She was about to jump.
“Not here. Not now,” whispered Kayla. “Just to the edge.”
Adrienne’s breath hitched.
Kayla’s fingers pressed against her wrist, steadying her. “Hold it. Stay.”
Adrienne felt it—the pull, the tension—but she didn’t jump.
She controlled it.
Kayla exhaled, nodding in approval. “Come back to me.”
Adrienne slowly let go, her awareness settling back into the apartment. She rubbed her head. “Ouch.”
Kayla smiled, satisfaction flickering in her gaze. “That was perfect. I think you must remember from times past.”

During the summer of 2023, due to family responsibilities, I was seldom able to get out to take pics, but luckily this young Roseate spoonbill was spending the summer just a few miles away. While I did capture many pictures, I did not have much time to look at them and process the images.
It's cold, I'm bored so here's one from four years ago, can't wait for the sea holly to flower again and await the buzzers.

Am 30.Juli 2022 bespannte die ATLU 193 553 (Werbelok Responsibility Driven) den DGS 43151 von Köln Eifeltor nach Verona Quadrante Europa in Italien für ihren Mieter TXL.
Die Aufnahme enstand südlich St.Goarshausen an der rechten Rheinstrecke (KBS 466).
Der Zug hatte mit ca 1,5 Stunden Verspätung den Loreleytunnel durch fahren und passiert nun die markanten Felsen mit dem Aussichtstempel Leiselfeld nördlich dem Betriebsbahnhof Loreley.
Die schon lange anhaltenden Trockenheit hatte die Natur schon früh im Jahr ausgedöört und sorgt schon viel zu früh für eine fast herbstliche Laubfärbung.
Last December, I completed by responsibilities at the college a bit earlier than usual and took off like a shot for the Pacific Northwest. I had been looking for ideas the week before and when I finally saw that waves approaching 25 feet were due to hit the Central Oregon Coast, I made a quick reservation at an Airbnb in Coos Bay and set off on the 16 hour drive to Medford. I spent the night at a truck stop before heading over to Brookings and then up the coast. I spent the next 8 days shooting my butt off.
After shooting some colossal waves, I decided to continue North up to Cape Disappointment in Washington with hopes of grabbing more large waves as high winds were in the forecast. I arrived early on this particular morning fairly certain that I was going to get skunked. I spent about 30 minutes or so shooting long exposures in the dim morning twilight before some color began to creep into the sky. The mist that you see in this shot was not from low clouds but instead from spray left when the waves in this area slammed into the cliff face. I also waited long enough to allow the beam of the light house to sweep across during this exposure.
Shortly after this photo was taken, the entire sky erupted over Cape Disappointment. This is easily one of my favorite spots on the Washington Coast, and I'm hoping to get back here next week on a short break before my Spring semester begins.

Worldwide the generation of our children and grandchildren is demonstrating for immediate political decisions against the rapid climate change. My and his generation have to read and to accept, that it is our responsibility not to have urged our political representatives to make decisions according the scientific facts available since the report of >Global 2000< for US-president Jimmy Carter in 1977.
Our AirBnB host had slipped a page into the guest book saying "My favorite place to stargaze in the desert is a plot of land out in the middle of Wonder Valley. I call it the Star Box. It's far from light pollution and you'll be all alone out there. Venmo $25 for access to the land. I do not take responsibility for nails or glass in tires. Arrive before sunset or you'll never find the place." The tire thing worried us, but we paid up, got the coords, and checked it out in daylight - soft sand road, but seemed fine. It was indeed magical - I hadn't seen a sky this big before - free of obstructions in every direction, ringed by distant mountains all the way around, a totally enveloping experience. I'd expected the temps to drop with nightfall, but a warm wind persisted. We ate pizza and watched the North Star appear, then watched as cosmos lit up. The downside of the location for astro photography is that there were no landmarks, so there's nothing to include (skies with stars and nothing else are boring). But we had fun doing some light painting in the desert while we waited for the full star show. Amazing evening.
