Since the nesting site of Larus crassirostris was so crowded, a chick came out to a road. Its parent had to feed it along roadside. In Teuri Island, Hokkaido, Japan.

A welcome site on a hot summer day in June in San Jose, California. The fog rolling in over the hills from Santa Cruz. A sign of cooling off; but it will take a while to get here.

House Wren claiming a nesting territory in my yard in Chester County, PA. Unfortunately I believe it took the nesting box from a pair of chickadees.

Le quotidien d'un chantier, c'est parfois aussi simple que ça...
Pourtant, derrière l'apparente simplicité de ce remplissage se cache la complexité du métier.
Un peu comme la photo, tout compte fait.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Sigiriya is truly unique not only for its remaining ruins, but also for its stunning location.
The palace ruins on the summit of Sigiriya rock consist of several massive brick walls and pools, which were carved into the solid rock, and the sheer drop-offs on any side of the summit offer panoramic views in all directions.
The entry to the summit leads through massive Lion's claws which are the remains of what was once a much larger structure. In ancient times, the stairway lead straight into the mouth of a lion, and the name Sigiriya, which literally means Lions Rock, stems from this impressive monument.

The Swing Bridge (foreground) is built on the site of a series of earlier wooden and stone bridges. Although it is reputed to be the site of a Roman crossing, the earliest record of a bridge here is 1250. The Swing Bridge opened in 1876 and was designed and paid for by the industrialist William Armstrong. The bridge can rotate through 360 degrees and Armstrong's original mechanism is still used to open and close the bridge today.
The High Level Bridge (background) is a dual rail and road bridge across the Tyne designed by Robert Stephenson to link the developing English railway network to Scotland. The bridge is built on five piers of locally quarried stone, each 15m thick and 5m wide, supporting cast iron sections; the upper level of the railway bridge stands 37 m above the Tyne's high water mark. The rail bridge was opened in 1849 by Queen Victoria, and the road bridge was opened in 1850.

Excerpt from the plaque:
Officers’ Galley: Meals for the Captain and his Officers were prepared here by one of the cooks when the ship was not at sea. The Captain was served his meals by a Steward who worked in the Captain’s Pantry. Officers’ meals were taken down below to the Wardroom Pantry where the food was plated, then served by a Steward.
Located in the Urubamba Valley, aka the Sacred Valley, most archeologists now believe that Machu Picchu was the private estate of the 9th Inca emperor Pachacuti or Pachacútec. Once the Inca emerged from their ancestral lands around the border area of modern Peru and Bolivia, and began to conquer vast tracts of land, they established their capital at the site of modern day Cusco, Peru around 1420. Just like all roads led to Rome in the Roman Empire, thousand of miles of roads and trails led to Cusco in the Inca Empire. Neither Machu Picchu nor Cusco were ever completed due to the Spanish conquest that began with a military campaign by Francisco Pizarro in 1532. It took 40 years to finally vanquish the Inca. Pizarro was only successful due to a civil war caused by the sons of Pachacútec. He was able to recruit the emperor's rival brother to his side. Machu Picchu was used as a stronghold by the Inca for many years but was eventually abandoned. Terraces below the main level were used to grow food especially maize which was used to make a fermented drink used in festivities and rituals. (There's little doubt that the beverage was called 'Hazy Maizy.")
New Lanark is a small 18th- century village set in a sublime Scottish landscape where the philanthropist and Utopian idealist Robert Owen moulded a model industrial community in the early 19th century. The imposing cotton mill buildings, the spacious and well-designed workers' housing, and the dignified educational institute and school still testify to Owen's humanism.

Cathedral Cove est un site magnifique de la Péninsule de Coromandel, au sud-est d'Auckland. A moins d'une heure de Whitianga, le lieu de tournage du film le Monde de Narnia est accessible à pied avec une bonne randonnée de 45 mn tout en montée et descente. Après les efforts, la belle récompense est là à vos pieds, un superbe spot avec une cathédrale faite d'un rocher naturel avec un décor surnaturel que tout visiteur de la Nouvelle Zélande devrait faire. La vue panoramique de l'océan et des côtes depuis le chemin qui y mène est splendide.
