Skogafoss waterfall in South Iceland attracts visitors no matter the weather and season. I think it displays its special beauty precisely in winter, when all its walls are covered with icicles and natural icy shapes due to the strong winds and the spray they cause.

You may see something different from what I see but hope you'll see something!.

White-winged Doves (Zenaida asiatica) are semi-tropical doves whose native range extends from the southwestern U.S. through Mexico and Central America, into parts of western South America, and to some Caribbean islands. They are also residents in Florida, where they were introduced. The majority of White-winged Doves are seasonally migratory. They overwinter in Mexico and Central America and come to the southwestern United States and northern Mexico in April to breed, departing again in September. Some will overwinter in their breeding range, especially in residential areas where food remains available. In the southern parts of their range, they are year-round residents. There are twelve subspecies of White-winged Doves. Western or Desert White-winged Doves (Zenaida asiatica mearnsii) and Eastern White-winged Doves (Zenaida asiatica asiatica) are the most numerous and widely distributed subspecies.

 

White-winged Doves feed on a variety of seeds, grain, and fruit that vary depending on their range and seasonal availability. They consume seeds and fruits of wild trees, grasses, and herbaceous plants, as well as those of ornamental cultivars. Domestic grain crops including sunflower, barley, sesame, sorghum, wheat, corn, and safflower are also an important food source in many parts of White-winged Dove’s range. To supplement their seed-based diet, White-winged Doves will also ingest shells of small snails and other gastropods, or bits of bone extracted from raptor pellets or mammal feces. The bones and shell are an important source of calcium for the doves, necessary for eggshell and crop milk production.

 

I found this one in my backyard in Polk County, Florida.

Auf der Raschötz im Grödnertal

From the archives. It´s still about + 30 C so I prefer not to go out.

The title may suggest that there is partial space for storage in this structure. The title actually means that you can easily store your six tractor trailer cabs in this barn. Notice the size of the entrance door on the side of the garage! You could put two times this house in the garage. This building is clearly owned by someone who values mechanical toys rather than a big screen TV. Better yet, the TV is probably in the garage. When the husband says he is going to the garage, he could be gone for days. I can see the divorce papers now. “But Judge, he was buying his 7th Semi and all I asked for was a washing machine!”

It is interesting to be able to see its iconic partially webbed feet.

Sometimes strange things happen with flowers, again like with people... this one opened in an unusual way...

Lilium longiflorum.

This plant is native to Japan and the Ryūkyū Islands.

It is a stem rooting lily, growing up to 1 m high and bears a number of trumpet shaped, white, very fragrant, and outward facing flowers.

 

Have a good day and thanks for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

As I was sitting on the beach this little guy just kept getting closer and closer as he hunted for invertebrates in the kelp. Not at all afraid as long as I didn't move!
