The same location and a different day. The frost came and made a fog on the water. The trees, the ducks and the lights completed the atmosphere of the tale, a winter tale....

"Deep within the winter forest
among the snowdrifts wide
You can find a magic place
where all the fairies hide."
.... a fairy tale world and a burst of sunshine... it feels magical
In German, the name of the wren is "Zaunkönig", roughly King of the Fence. In this picture, that name seems to be well-deserved as this young wren still head a light feather crown. In a book about the history of German bird names by Suolahti (1909), the author describes an old tale where all the birds wanted to crown the one amongst them which can fly the highest. The eagle stepped up and flew high and higher... but on its back, a small little bird rode up into the air with him and at the highest point flew just a tiny bit higher. To the Eagle's dismay, that little bird received the "King" name. The author assumes that the bird in the tale was a gold- or firecrest, which today still carries the genus name Regulus for "little king". In some German-speaking regions the more often seen and admired wren received the "King" name over time with early mentions already in the 15th century. Interestingly it replaced the Old-German name wrendo, which is very similar to it's English name.
There's a story for this, I just can't seem to put it into words. So the photo will have to be good enough.

Every war is the senseless destruction of lives
in the interests of the arms industry and a few deranged fanatics!

Neverending- Sakura Tales
Bermeo, Vizcaya, País Vasco, España.
La villa de Bermeo es un municipio vizcaíno de la comarca de Busturialdea, en la comunidad autónoma del País Vasco, España. Se trata de una de las localidades más pobladas de la comarca de la Reserva de la Biosfera de Urdaibai junto con Guernica y Luno, con 16 864 habitantes (INE, 2020).
Fundada en 1236, la villa ostentó el título de Cabeza de Vizcaya desde 1476 hasta 1602, siendo la principal población del Señorío de Vizcaya. Es por ello por lo que Bermeo gozó de ciertos privilegios y por lo que gozaba de mayor relevancia frente al resto de villas en las Juntas Generales de Vizcaya. A esto cabe añadirle las juras que los reyes realizaban en la iglesia de Santa Eufemia cada vez que visitaban la provincia.
Actualmente, se trata de una villa arraigada a la tradición marinera, ya que su economía se basa mayoritariamente en la pesca y en las conservas de pescado.
Posee además diferentes atractivos turísticos tales como la ermita de San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, la torre Ercilla (Museo del pescador), la Puerta de San Juan, el casco antiguo, la Atalaya y el manicomio y su acogedor puerto, entre otros.
The town of Bermeo is a Biscayan municipality in the Busturialdea region, in the autonomous community of the Basque Country, Spain. It is one of the most populated towns in the region of the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, together with Guernica and Luno, with 16,864 inhabitants (INE, 2020).
Founded in 1236, the town held the title of Head of Vizcaya from 1476 to 1602, being the main population of the Lordship of Vizcaya. That is why Bermeo enjoyed certain privileges and why it enjoyed greater relevance compared to the rest of the towns in the General Meetings of Vizcaya. To this must be added the oaths that the kings made in the church of Santa Eufemia every time they visited the province.
Currently, it is a town rooted in the seafaring tradition, since its economy is based mainly on fishing and canned fish.
It also has different tourist attractions such as the hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, the Ercilla tower (Fisherman's Museum), the Puerta de San Juan, the old town, the Atalaya and the asylum and its welcoming port, among others.
I showed you all from the photo the other day of nice weather. In the night the winds and rain came up and the Tell Tale Twig is turned down today.

In a world of dragons, mermaids, ghosts, and magic,
Anything can happen.
But there is fire within the scorpion love story.
She waits in patience
Crawls just slightly
Raises her tail with defense
And stings when she is hurt.
One dares not scorch the soul of a scorpion
For one day the prickle shall burn
Where your wound will never heal
Wishing you never poured harm
Toward any of her balanced ways.

I was in the AWD`(Amsterdamse Waterleiding Duinen) last week. I just love that area.
Originally meant as a basin to collect drinking water for the big cities surrounding it, it is riddled with canals, small forests and lots of sand dunes.
It is beautiful in every season but autumn is my favorite.
The area is inhabited by many Fallow Deer. (too many, some people think). As of November large numbers of them will be shot to bring the numbers down.
I was in the area at sunrise. As the sun rose, the fog started rising over the canals. And when there is a Fallow Deer jumping over that canal with the sun as back light, it really seems like it's part of a fairy tale.
