Today on Sunday the sun sent her last greeting ... but only to announce that she will resume her work tomorrow
I believe this is a Wood Thrush which usually is singing with a flute like tune. But he seemed a little quiet and reserved - maybe it will have a great weekend - sure hope you do!
Day 1 of 20 of albums that influenced my musical tastes. I'll start with Standing on a Beach. I remember listening this CD everyday in my high school years, in my house or in my friend's room, feeding our minds with these dark sounds and some bright musical notes, creating our perfect soundtrack for the teenager.
The album was titled Staring at the Sea in CD format in some countries is the first greatest hits album by the English band the Cure, released in the United States on 15 May 1986 by Elektra Records and in the United Kingdom on 19 May 1986 by Fiction Records, marking a decade since the band's founding in 1976.

It's been 40 years of The Cure, 40 years of this deep powerful music. This special song takes me back to my high school years when I discovered real friendship and music.
"...It's not a case of telling the truth
Some lines just fit the situation
Call me a liar
You would anyway
It's not a case of aiming to please
You know you're always crying
It's just your part
In the play for today"

Rain on Douglas fir tree.
Douglas fir, which has sometimes been called the Douglas tree, Oregon pine, and Douglas spruce, is not actually a true fir, a pine, or a spruce. Indicative of the taxonomic confusion about this tree, the scientific genus name Pseudotsuga means “false hemlock,” alluding to yet another kind of tree somewhat similar to this unique but important tree. Douglas firs are evergreen trees, meaning they keep their needle-like leaves year-round. There are two varieties of this species, coast Douglas fir and Rocky Mountain Douglas fir, which are differentiated by their habitats, growth rates, and physical characteristics.
When Douglas firs grow in dense forests, they self-prune their lower branches so the conical crown starts many stories above the ground. Trees growing in open habitats, especially younger trees, have branches much closer to the ground. Coast Douglas firs are the faster-growing and larger of the two varieties, and they commonly grow up to 250 feet (76 meters) in old-growth forests and can reach five to six feet (1.5 to 1.8 meters) in diameter. Rocky Mountain Douglas firs measure about the same in diameter but only grow up to 160 feet (49 meters).

Hmm, forgot to adjust the time on this camera...
Approx 50 cm ..
I think we can say that Norway stopped today...
Power cords falling down, because of too much snow on the trees.
Trains stopping.
Trucks all over the roads...
And I had a date in Oslo, so I went off - lol, into the wilderness ❄💙❄
today the sky was full of unusual interesting clouds... have just found out what they are and what caused these.
Fallstreak Holes occur when the water temperature in the clouds is below freezing but the water has not yet frozen.
These water droplets need a nucleus to freeze or to be cooled below -40 °C.
When ice crystals do form, it will see off a domino effect due to the Bergeron process, causing the water vapour around it to freeze and fall.
This leaves a large hole in the cloud.

Just now...
Ci affanniamo per molte cose, come se tutto dipendesse da noi. Mentre la 'grazia' è senza sforzo : accade. Dimentichiamo che 'non si può fare un solo passo verso il Cielo, ma se si contempla alla fine il Cielo arriva'
