Hiking in Switzerland ; Grindelwald , First , above Bachsee . No. 8975.
"It's impossible to imagine the Swiss mountain world as more idyllic than the area surrounding Lake Bachalpsee. The snow-covered peaks of the Alps are reflected in the crystal clear blue water.
First is the starting point for hikes and it offers action: An adrenaline rush and speed thrills are guaranteed on the First Flyer, trottibike scooters or bikes. Children can have fun on the 700-m² playground at the Bort intermediate station."
Trois étapes vous seront nécessaires pour débarquer en toute tranquillité dans cet écrin de nature montagnarde paradisiaque. A 2200 mètres d'altitude, le First offre des panoramas étourdissants, notamment une vue imprenable sur sept 4000 des Alpes bernoises.
En une petite heure de marche à travers pâturages et chemins pédestres bucoliques, vous atteignez le superbe lac Bachalpsee et ses eaux cristallines. De tous les côtés, des points de vue pittoresques. Inoubliable ascension. Pour un peu de culture, passez donc la nuit au Berghotel Faulhorn, le plus ancien hôtel de montagne de Suisse!
Der First ist eine Verflachung des Südwest-Rückens zum Widderfeldgrätli (2'632 m ü. M.) im Berner Oberland nördlich oberhalb von Grindelwald. Er ist über eine Gondelbahn oder zu Fuss erreichbar. Die obere Bergstation heisst ebenfalls First (2'167 m ü. M.) und steht den Besuchern im Winter und im Sommer mit einem gut ausgebauten Ski- und Wandergebiet zur Verfügung.
Besonders beliebt ist die Wanderung zum Bachalpsee und weiter zum Faulhorn, die ein spektakuläres Panorama mit Blick auf den oberen Grindelwaldgletscher sowie Eiger, Mönch und Jungfrau bietet. Eine weitere interessante Wanderung führt auf das Schwarzhorn. Östlich von First liegt 5,6 Kilometer zu Fuss entfernt die Grosse Scheidegg.
Der First ist ein Startort für Paraglider und Deltasegler sowie Ausgangspunkt für zahlreiche Mountainbiketouren. Station First bietet auch einen imposanten kurvenreichen Schlittenweg, welcher bei guten Schneeverhältnissen direkt nach Grindelwald führt.

The river in full melt rush after a few days of record heat. The snow is washing away as the fire danger increases. No longer a clear stream. Thanks for looking and hope to be around soon as have been quite busy.
Have this driver finally figured out solution for our rush hour traffic ? Not really this special truck was surveying the railroad track as I reached the level crossing.

This was a redo from an earlier photo with the same title. I really liked the mood in the first one but because the light was fading I couldn't really stop down the lens and get good focus throughout the scene. When I went back but the whole scene had changed, although I captured much more details all the rocks were in a different location because of the wave action and it was mostly blue sky with no texture to it and no mood. I like the first one better. Hope everyone had a pleasant day.

Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge is the place to go to see birds. The levy is on your left and you get a “bird’s eye” (pun intended) view from your car/SUV window to take shots. There was a car right in front of us, yet the driver was pleasant and thoughtful so that he drove away leaving us plenty of time to get this pic. This Ring-Necked Pheasant was so busy eating that he paid little attention to our clicking shutter.
These Yellow Legs were rushing back and forth among the reeds in the water - i assume they were looking for food, but they never stopped anywhere they just kept pacing back and forth acting as one.

She believes their behavior is a courtship behavior - She said - interesting photo.
I decided on my 2022 calendar theme - Western / Clark's Grebes, so you'll probably see a few more posts from my grebe sessions over the last three years or so. The "rush" is a super exciting courting behavior common to these two grebe species. It's preceded by all kinds of moves - water throwing, bobbing heads, among others. Then they line up, look at each other and they're off for the 100-yard dash. I probably posted another from this series, but they're closer to completely overlapping here, which I thought was kinda cool.
April is National Poetry Month, a celebration of poets and poetry that's been in place for 25 years.
Last month, as the U.S. grieved over attacks against Asian Americans, NPR's Morning Edition collected poems on how people grapple with the increased violence and discrimination.
Over 500 listeners shared powerful, poignant poems — in the form of a list beginning with the word "today." They showcased fear, anger, empathy and motivation to make the world a better place.
NPR's resident poet Kwame Alexander took lines from the submissions to create a community poem, "Today, I Am A Witness To Change."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To quote just a few:
Today I hesitate
for the first time, I wonder if I should stay home and not walk the neighborhood.
it's not the weather or the virus — the day is beautiful
Today
I'm frozen
Terrified.
I cannot hide
This skin
This hair
These eyes.
I see the punch, punch, punch of a community at war.
Today I am a witness.
I rush past the jeering white boys that say I brought corona to America.
My soul is wary.
Today, a video call full of empty boxes
Stares at me, apprehensively.
Students locked behind a screen
Their hearts and minds
Severed
From one another.
Today, the headlines say March Madness
Today, I don't watch basketball.
The madness is in the streets.
In broad daylight.
On the concrete sidewalks of New York.
In the silence of bystanders.
It's in the textbooks. The classrooms. The family dinners. The lies we tell.
Today the rain falls
and falls
and falls
and falls.
a silent tear from a weeping woman.
Today, I will say their names
I will cancel class and try again tomorrow.
That's a scary thought to commute to NYC nowadays for me, even I'm FULLY inoculated. :-(((
This is rush hour March 2020 style. No traffic, no one walking, apart from your photographer on his daily government approved walk.
