Today
BY BILLY COLLINS
If ever there were a spring day so perfect,
so uplifted by a warm intermittent breeze
that it made you want to throw
open all the windows in the house
and unlatch the door to the canary's cage,
indeed, rip the little door from its jamb,
a day when the cool brick paths
and the garden bursting with peonies
seemed so etched in sunlight
that you felt like taking
a hammer to the glass paperweight
on the living room end table,
releasing the inhabitants
from their snow-covered cottage
so they could walk out,
holding hands and squinting
into this larger dome of blue and white,
well, today is just that kind of day.
Touring the cliffs by the sea between Alcossebre and Peñiscola, we can see the colors that nature gives.

Ich war mit 560mm Brennweite unterwegs, weil ich eigentlich Wasservögel fotografieren wollte. Das klappte leider nicht mangels Kooperationsbereitschaft der Vögel. 😊

The robin is one of the few birds in the UK that sing all year round. This is due to the importance of holding winter territories.
The spring song can start as early as mid-December, reaching full force in spring. Its purpose is two-fold: to defend a territory and to attract a mate. Therefore, spring song is far more powerful in males.
Robins are adapted to life in poor light and are often active in half-light when few other birds are about. They tend to be among the earliest birds to start the dawn chorus and one of the last to stop in the evening

Today I was so mesmerised by Sofia''s photo. This photo sums up her artistic and creative ability as a great artist. Her vision as a photographer stretches the visual spectrum. From her photos I see things that I would never image seeing. Sofia is a sweet lady with a nice sense of humor and well liked by many on flickr. I'm so fortunate to have such a loyal friend on flickr!! We love you Sofia! Don't worry, you're doing fine. Continue your greatness! xx
