Whilst lacking the intense blue of their males, these are little stunners in their own right

Splendid sunbirds are 15cm long, and have medium-long thin down-curved bills and brush-tipped tubular tongues, both adaptations to their nectar feeding.

Interior of Iceland...my favorite photo location. If I could live in this cottage, I would . The hardiness of Icelanders is extraordinary.

 

If I have to live in isolation this house would seem to fit the bill.

Antartikon, Macedonia, Greece

wann kann man schon mal ein Foto ohne jegliche Bearbeitung einstellen. So herrlich fand ich die Natur gestern vor.

 

hab hier das erste Mal meinen HD Filter (Graufilter) benutzt. Dieser ist wohl eine ganz gute Investition bei Schnee und Strand.

Silverton used to be a mining town at the foothills of the Red Moundain of San Juan Mountains, Colorado

This is the driveway to one very lucky family’s ranch near Waterton National Park.

Just a shame (for me!) that it's a modern-looking bungalow rather than a traditional Northumberland stone cottage :)

 

100x 2022 - Northumberland - 21/100

 

I had started from the church at Serrières and had climbed on an adventure by a small road, which would soon become a path through a forest. I had been following the path for quite a while, and I wondered where I was going. I then met walkers coming down and asked them where the path led. "At the Grange du Bois", they answered me, about 1/4h uphill. Indeed, shortly after, I came across this magnificent, well-known landscape of the Grange du Bois: a beautiful view of the Roche de Solutré with a superb priory in front and in the background, Mâcon and the plain of the Saône. We could even see Mont-Blanc on the horizon. it was a superb reward for the climb. Now all I had to do was go back down, and I found another way for it. It was a nice circuit to finish.

Splendide paysage connu

 

J'étais parti de l'église de Serrières et était monté à l'aventure par une petite route, qui bientôt deviendrait un sentier à travers une forêt. Je suivait le chemin depuis un bon moment, et je me demandais où j'allais. J'ai alors croisé des promeneurs qui descendaient et leur ai demandé où le sentier débouchait. "A la Grange du Bois", me répondirent-ils, à environ 1/4h de montée. Effectivement, peu de temps après, j'ai débouché sur ce magnifique paysage bien connu de la Grange du bois : une belle vue sur la Roche de Solutré avec un superbe prieuré devant et en arrière plan, Mâcon et la plaine de la Saône. On voyait même le Mont-Blanc à l'horizon. c'était une superbe récompense pour la montée. Il ne me restait plus maintenant qu'à redescendre, et j'ai trouvé un autre chemin pour cela. Ca a fait un beau circuit pour finir.

Another look at these beautiful little wrens. This one is coming into his adult plumage which will be a stunning electric blue over his entire body.

Don't want to wake up with no one beside me

Don't want to take up with nobody new

Don't want nobody coming by without calling first

Don't want nothing to do with you

ll Castello di Chignolo Po è una delle fastose residenze castellane di campagna, della Lombardia.

 

La sua parte più antica è la torre, costruita come presidio sul Po e sulle vie di collegamento tra il nord Europa e l'Italia.

 

Il Castello, edificato nel Duecento, fu trasformato nel Settecento in reggia principesca, attraverso una fantasiosa rielaborazione stilistica dell'edificio.

 

Grazie mille per i gentili commenti.

Sorry for another photos of poppies. In fact I love them, and they are so rare here.

I have to say that you will see many others when I upload my photos from Casteluccio di Norcia. It seems that Europe is the paradise of this flower in which the simplicity in inversely proportional to the charm.

 

I will be out for some days again and have disabled the possibility of comments in these photos. Thanks for your constant support and kindness!

Wish you all a wonderful weekend!

Easter Sunday at Kranzhorn, Erlerberg.

The flowers and garden items that have made their way into our little world recently have been stealing my heart. The colors, quality and artistic rendering of the flora and fauna are some of the best yet! And just when I think things can't get sweeter....
