The Shambles is a historic street in York, England, featuring preserved medieval buildings, some dating back as far as the fourteenth century. The street is narrow with many timber-framed buildings with jettied floors that overhang the street by several feet. It was once known as The Great Flesh Shambles, probably from the Anglo-Saxon Fleshammels (literally 'flesh-shelves'), the word for the shelves that butchers used to display their meat. In 1885, thirty-one butchers' shops were located along the street, but now none remain.
I have seen lots of wolves running across roads and have even photographed wolf pups but never have I had the chance to photograph an adult wolf at close range. This wolf was cautiously staying close to the woods as it was checking me out! This was definitely a lifer! Photo taken in southern Manitoba!
The Western Timber wolf is a sub-species of the grey wolf and lives in western Canada and Alaska.
One of the characteristics of this subspecies is the great variability of colors: black or white, gray or yellowish, including within the same pack.
Often black wolves turn gray, then white as they age.
Canis Lupus occidentalis includes several ancient subspecies such as that of the Mackenzie wolves (Canis lupus mackenzii) or even that of the tundra wolves (Canis lupus tundrarum).
Since its reintroduction in Yellowstone, the ecosystem has returned to its equilibrium, allowing in particular the disappeared species to return.
The Speicherstadt (literally: 'City of Warehouses') in Hamburg, Germany is the largest warehouse district in the world where the buildings stand on timber-pile foundations, oak logs, in this particular case. It is located in the port of Hamburg and was built from 1883 to 1927.
The district was built as a free zone to transfer goods without paying customs. It has been awarded the status of UNESCO World Heritage Site on 5 July 2015. (from Wikipedia)

Hypopyrrhus pyrohypogaster
(Red-bellied Grackle / Cacique candela)
The red-bellied grackle is endemic to Colombia where it is found in all three Andean ranges at altitudes of 800 to 2,400m (2,600 to 7,900ft) above sea level.
Its natural habitat is tropical forest, but the trees are increasingly being felled for timber and to make way for agriculture, and little virgin forest remains within its range.
H. pyrohypogaster was formerly classified as "endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature but in 2012 the threat level was lowered to "vulnerable". This is on the basis that, although its forest habitat remains under pressure, it has been found at some new locations where it was not known before. The total population is now estimated to be in the range 2,500 to 9,999 individuals.
(I'm working nights at the moment, so I'm sorry if I dont get by to look at your photos, I'll catch up when I can.)

"What are timbers in the saying shiver me timbers?"
"Its meaning is clear enough. The word 'shiver' is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary as “to break into small fragments or splinters” while the 'timbers' refer to the wooden support frames of old sailing ships."

The Macq01 Hotel also makes use of reclaimed timber from the original Macquarie Wharf buildings. In this case an entire ground floor hallway has been created from the polished finish, giving off warm colours and a lovely ambience. It also provides a great compositional opportunity.
I hope you'll enjoy my work! Thank you for your support!

The Speicherstadt (lit. city of warehouses, meaning warehouse district) in Hamburg, Germany is the largest warehouse district in the world where the buildings stand on timber-pile foundations, oak logs, in this particular case. It is located in the port of Hamburg—within the HafenCity quarter—and was built from 1883 to 1927.
The district was built as a free zone to transfer goods without paying customs. As of 2009 the district and the surrounding area is under redevelopment.
Since 1815, the independent and sovereign city of Hamburg was a member of the German Confederation—the association of Central European states created by the Congress of Vienna—but not member of the German Customs Union. With the establishment of the German Empire in 1871, Hamburg could not be a customs free zone and part of the German Empire. Due to treaties of 1888 Hamburg was part of the German customs zone and a free port was established.
In 1883 the demolition of the Kehrwieder area began and more than 20,000 people needed to be relocated. From 1885 to 1888 the first part was built and managed by the Freihafen-Lagerhaus-Gesellschaft (the predecessor of the Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG). Since 1991 it is listed a heritage site in Hamburg, and since 2008, part of the HafenCity quarter. In an attempt to revitalize the inner city area, the Hamburg government initiated the development of the HafenCity area, for example with the construction of the Elbe Philharmonic Hall.
Now I can see why they call it winter wonderland. Was very nice to get to spend some time with my babe during the holiday hustle. Hope everyone has a safe and joyous holiday season.
