These beautiful swans seem to be keeping their distance perfectly. Now if they would only wear your mask (just kidding). I took this image a few years ago in France along the Saone River. Best wishes to all. (Edited in Lightroom and Topaz)
The architecture with the grid elements and clear borders reminded me of the current Corona motto: social isolation.

Savannah sparrows breed in Alaska, Canada, northern, central, and Pacific coastal United States, Mexico, and Guatemala. The Pacific and Mexican breeders are resident, but other populations are migratory, wintering from the southern United States across Central America and the Caribbean to northern South America. These birds inhabit open grasslands, tundra, shrub land, meadows, wetlands, and agricultural fields. They can also be found on beaches, sand dunes, salt marshes, and estuaries.
Savannah sparrows are social birds and typically spend time in pairs or family groups in the breeding season. However, before the winter migration, they assemble in large flocks and become very energetic and noisy. Their flight call is a thin 'seep' and the song is a mixture of 'chirps' and trills. Savannah sparrows are diurnal; they forage by day on the ground or in low bushes. Particularly in winter, they can also be found in grazed low-growth grassland. They feed by walking along the ground and occasionally run or hop to snatch their prey. They will also make short flights to catch insects in mid-air.
Found this Winter visitor along Joe Overstreet Road, in Osceola County, Florida.

Evening grosbeaks have decided to stay with us for the winter. They come by every day to eat and drink. They will sit and chatter with each other for hours. It's truly a beautiful sight and sound.
Social distancing, also called “physical distancing,” means keeping space between yourself and other people outside of your home

I've been away for some time and I'm sorry, life has been oh so busy.. Times are crazy with this virus and I hope you are all safe and practicing social distancing. I've missed you all so, thank you for the kind notes and mails.
Not too sure how long I'll be here but am trying to find time to love my camera again

Bottrop, Germany, 2021.
When I set up my tripod for this shot, my idea was to take an abstract image about the concept of social distancing. I wanted each person to be in their own individual "compartment", nicely separated by the totems (which are part of an open-air art installation, by the way). Little did I know of how much waiting I was getting myself into. In the end, I got the shot, but it took almost 30 minutes of waiting – and I still had to move one person digitally in Photoshop. It was then that I decided to add a question mark to the title of the image. These people were everything but socially distanced.
Here in Germany (and probably every other country), people are quick to blame politicians for all things going wrong in the fight against the pandemic. However, many of them fail to see that it is just as much their own fault to quite a degree. Far too many people simply don't care about keeping their distance, willing to take the chance of other people dying because of their actions.
The fight against the pandemic is not won by the decisions made in a politician's office. It is won by how well these decisions are executed by the people in their everyday lives.

It is supposed to look video game style and be funny. Just because you don't understand it does not mean it is not good. Js
