Floydd decided to come into the livingroom this morning for a visit.
He settled in on the rug in the middle of the floor, sphinx style, and watched the kittens darting all over and playing with one another.
Initially they didn't seem to notice him, but at some point Doug realized there was another real, live cat on the scene and went into full blown Halloween kitty mode!
He puffed up and danced in front of Floydd, posturing and growling and acting like a complete goofball.
Floydd just passively watched the show until Doug got bold enough to come in for a nose sniff. Floydd emitted a low growl, which made Doug back pedal into the wall.
Then Floydd stood up and went to the door and looked at me like "Open please? I've seen all I want to see here!", and went off to find a quieter spot to hang out.
The taller of the two sighting towers on Bamford Moor. They were built for the construction of the Rivelin Tunnel which runs from Ladybower to Lower Rivelin Reservoir 4.5 miles away.
First Sighting of this elusive bird. The common nightingale, rufous nightingale or simply nightingale, is a small passerine bird best known for its powerful and beautiful song. It was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, Muscicapidae. It belongs to a group of more terrestrial species, often called chats.
I just returned from my Iceland adventure. I traveled the entire Ring Road, sleeping in my Jeep rental during the day and taking photos all night. I spotted this puffin up in the cliffs of Dyrholaey. Many more pictures to come...

A few years ago, my wife and I went on vacation with my son. During this, particular vacation, he played the music of a certain artist over and over-he was driving the car. A few years later, we went on vacation again-we listened to the same music. A month ago, my wife and I went to this favorite vacation spot…without our son…but with familiar music. We have been home for a while now, but I find myself, listening to this vacation music…because it makes me feel good. Music can do that.
I can play this music and be transported to my happy place instantly. When, I’m feeling down…I know what to do. What couple doesn’t have a theme song? Who hasn’t been transported back in time…because a song triggered a memory from their past. Music is a powerful force for good and bad and everything in between …it moves individuals and nations.
And the Spirit of God is so much more!
We are celebrating the sixth Sunday of Easter, and we have been reading about the resurrected Jesus and how he is preparing his disciples for his departure-his ascension is coming soon. He is telling them and us that he will not leave us alone. He says, “in a little while the world will no longer see me…but you will see me.” Jesus reassures them “that HE will not leave us orphaned.”
How is this promise fulfilled and where is the proof? It’s quite amazing that the Catholic Church is still here! It’s also quite amazing that most of the Apostle’s died a martyr’s death-they were rather cowardly before Christ’s death. Something beautiful has brought us together today.
It is called the Holy Spirit. Our Bishop confirmed several children here last night and today, but the seed was planted at their baptism. These young adults are now taking the responsibility for keeping the fire burning in their hearts. What is that responsibility?
In our Gospel reading, Jesus tells his disciples- “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.”
And what did Jesus say the two great commandments are?
Love God and love your neighbor.
If we do this…it is because we are already in a relationship with God to some degree. And we are making right choices because of this relationship. Has anyone ever felt guilty? That is proof of a relationship.
But what are we really getting out of this intentional relationship with God? Jesus, again says it so beautifully.
“And I will ask the Father,
and he will give you another Advocate to be with you always,
the Spirit of truth.”
Jesus tells us what that means..
“you will realize that I am in my Father
and you are in me and I in you”
Yes, we have an important “awareness” that through a beautiful mystery-The Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit…a beautiful Trinity resides right here inside me. I am never alone because the music is always playing. I can turn to God at any time, place or circumstance. Prayer is the vital link between us-my intimate response to hearing God’s call.
One of the biggest deceptions, is that sin will drive the Holy Spirit from residing within us. Let’s get one thing straight, the Church does not teach that. I may abandon God, but God will never abandon me. I may deny God’s presence, but “God’s will” will be done…regardless.
This is the real music that is constantly playing within us. We let the spirit of God carry us…take up your cross and follow me…the whisper of scripture says, and we listen and do. We can dip into this eternal fountain within us…to quench our deep longing for peace, a peace beyond our words to describe. In this state of awareness, we participate in Salvation History unfolding in lives and within the life of the world.
Other things may make us feel good such as the music I mentioned in my opening, but these things are temporary. Jesus says…that he will always be with us and that is permanent.
The Eucharist is a reminder of this divine reality. Jesus knew from the beginning that his sheep would need this outward sign of an inward reality.

What does an eagle see?
Experimenting with motion. Zooming in while slowing the shutter speed.
My daughter kindly poses for me while I play with my camera…
Walking along during the night,
no birds, no sounds, no one in sight.
But yet a feeling deep down inside,
so intense, it's hard to describe.
Look left and right and even below,
only one thing in mind and that is GO!
Where to? Who knows! Just run away!
Someone is there! Keep at bay!
But wait! Don't go! Be stronger than that!
Don't be scared, it could be a cat?
Footsteps running; a frightening sound.
Be strong and brave! Turn around!
BANG! A shot... just flew by!
Fall to the ground, looking at the sky.
Nor strong, nor brave, what went wrong?
Laying there, every minute so long...
Breathe after breathe, which is the last?
That whole ordeal happened so fast.
It's cold and dark. No one can hear.
Whispering "Help, help", the end is near.
Eyes open; it's not as it seems.
Shedding a tear, as it was a dream.
Remember to always trust your gut feeling! Bravery can always be mixed up with stupidity.
This comes from personal experience.....
This time last year, I was sitting on my porch at 1am-ish. Something told me to go inside. As I got up BANG BANG BANG (9 shots). As I was up it made it easier to dodge any incoming bullets.
Was the only witness and only one to call police.

A horse and carriage ride through downtown Charleston, SC to see the sights.
Happy Carriage Bench Monday!
A rare sight around this area (Bearsden) - a number 60A bus! Taking my life in my hands standing in the central reservation of Maryhill Road though I once did similar on the Champs Elysee. Not much difference.
We were carefully monitoring this site for a while and I'm safe to publish this as they are ready to move on with their life.
In a middle of a busy urban park , white-faced heron nest. very successful season for them , Third offspring is behind the left-one.
White-faced Heron, Egretta novaehollandiae - Jells Lake - VIC ( 20-10-2017)
I'd just missed a most amazing sunset sky but pressed on down the beach anyway to catch the afterglow . As I often do ,I became fascinated by the
backwash of the breaking waves as they retreated down the wet sand , picking up the colour from the sky. There were no filters, just as slow as I could get the shot. It was a Precious Sight, by Richard Hawley, it always is.
(Ardea herodias) Great blue herons rarely venture far from bodies of water and usually nest in trees or bush near the water's edge. They locate their prey by sight and usually swallow it whole. Generally solitary feeders.
"Aim for a star, and keep your sights high! With a heart full of faith within, your feet on the ground and your eyes in the sky". ― Helen Lowrie Marshall.
“The great tragedy of life is not that people set their sights too high and fail to achieve their goals but that they set their sights too low and do.” — Michelangelo.
“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees” ― Henry David Thoreau.

Winter pink skies, freezing cold and snow-covered (birch) trees... And Nature acting as a balm on me.
Another photo of the beautiful female leopard that ran alongside the road as we were driving along. We stopped the car and she came up beside the car and hid behind a bush and began watching some Impala on the opposite side. They spotted her and she decided to just sit and wait. There were no other cars around for quite a while, so a wonderful sighting where we had her to ourselves for photos.
