ALTHOUGH it is rather nondescript the corn bunting does have a distinctive song. It dangles it legs when flying short distances, and just look at its nails, they are very approachable with extreme care, I love seeing them at the Ancient Highway Sandwich Kent.

Monkshood / Eisenhut (Aconitum)

My theme for 2016 is: 52 months in a year.

 

I took this photo in June of 2009.

Nothing like being photo bombed by a Canada Goose Gosling!!

 

The scissor arches, which often visitors believe to be later, modern additions were constructed from 1338-48 as an engineering solution to a very real problem.

By 1313 a high tower topped by a lead covered wooden spire had been constructed but as the foundations were not stable large cracks began to appear in the tower structure.

In fear of a total collapse, several attempts at internal strengthening and buttressing were made, until the famous ‘scissor arches’ were put in place by master mason William Joy as a final solution.

Well that's another something off my photographic wish list - I finally made it over to Brownsea Island, Dorset to see red squirrels in the wild.

It's one of the very few places they can still be seen in the UK, and what a delight it was having these energetic bundles of fluff scampering right past my feet laying down stores for winter!

"...Stay, don't leave me

The stars can't for your sign

Don't signal now

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now

There's nothing I can say

There's nothing we can do now

Goodnight, travel well"

Happy Travel Thursday, everyone!

unrestricted satisfaction of all desires is not conductive to well-being, nor is it the way to happiness or even to maximum pleasure

The most serious threat to the continued well-being of the Trumpeter Swan is the loss of habitat resulting from expanding human populations. People are also responsible for accidental deaths, although it is rare for these to have a serious effect on populations, except perhaps on a local scale. Such “accidents” include lead poisoning caused by the ingestion of lead shot in areas that are heavily shot over by hunters; collisions with human-made objects, most notably power transmission lines and other overhead wires; and occasional misidentification and illegal shooting.

Musk Lorikeet (Glossopsitta concinna)

 

One from this day three years ago.

In Dutch we have a word for to create full stocked looking shelfs in supermarkets

"Spiegelen": the art of lining up the products near the front of the shelves, creating the illusion of fully stocked shelves. Literally: "mirroring".

Is there an English name for this?

Albert Heijn is the biggest supermarket chain in the Netherlands. Often called Appie by the Dutch. Ik ga even naar de Appie. (I'm going to the Appie)

Who do we have here...

The Molalla (mo-LA-la) River is a 51-mile (82 km) tributary of the Willamette River in the northwestern part of Oregon. The Molalla is the largest Willamette tributary unblocked by a dam.

 

During the early 19th century, the area around the river was populated by the Molala people. During that time, an extensive system of trails along the river allowed trade between the peoples of the Willamette Valley and eastern Oregon. As late as the 1920s, the trails were used by Native Americans from the Warm Springs Indian Reservation to reach huckleberry-picking grounds near Table Rock.

 

Whitewater enthusiasts sometimes run the upper reaches of the Molalla River as well as the lower. Under certain conditions, the 5.1-mile (8.2 km) stretch from Copper Creek to Table Rock Fork can be navigated by boaters capable of handling technical class III (intermediate) to IV (advanced) water on the International Scale of River Difficulty. Below that comes a stretch, about 5 miles (8 km) long, of class III to III+ water. Hazards on these upper miles may include narrow chutes, sudden drops, and logs in the water. The next 8 miles (13 km), Turner Bridge to Glen Avon Bridge, are rated technical class III to IV with hazards similar to the upper reaches but also including scouting difficulties as well as a dangerous undercut at a rapids called Goldilocks,

I can't breathe, I'm waiting for the exhale

Toss my pain with my wishes in a wishing well

Still no luck, but oh, well

I still try even though I know I'm gon' fail

Stress on my shoulders like an anvil

Perky got me itching like an anthill

Drugs killing me softly, Lauryn Hill

Sometimes I don't know how to feel

 

Ring-ring, phone call from depression

You used my past and my memories as a weapon

On the other line, I talk to addiction, huh

Speaking of the devil, all the drugs, I miss them

This can't be real, is it fiction?

Somethin' feels broke, need to fix it

I cry out for help, do they listen?

I'ma be alone until it's finished

 

This is the part where I tell you I'm fine

But I'm lying, I just don't want you to worry

This is the part where I take all my feelings and hide 'em

'Cause I don't want nobody to hurt me

 

♫LISTEN♫

Well I thought I would add this to Macro Monday but it's too old :( I just can't seem to follow any rules!

 

Its blue and rainy here, still no sign of warm weather. One of the coldest April's I can remember but of course my friend Bud will know better ;D

 

Be well my friends!

This is the ‘working’ part of Wells-Next-The Sea. Less busy than the harbour, it’s a peaceful spot. The estuary is bathing in the late afternoon sunshine. This is one of the first photographs I took with the new lens for the Canon. The lens still feels like a stranger and I am in the early stages of building a relationship with it.

Whilst helping a friend in Somerset celebrate a birthday we also managed a day trip to Wells.

Whilst walking the GR 5 between Spa and Stavelot I was unexpectedly greeted by two really friendly and incredibly beautiful dogs in a meadow!

This was a day when we watched a storm roll over Wells. An ever-changing sky - blue, then pink, then grey - accompanied by torrential rain and brilliant sunshine.

Montezuma Well, a detached unit of Montezuma Castle National Monument, is a natural limestone sinkhole near the town of Lake Montezuma, Arizona, through which some 1,500,000 US gallons of water emerge each day from an underground spring. It is located about 11 miles northeast of Montezuma Castle. Wikipedia

Address: Forest Service Road 618, Rimrock, AZ 86335

How deep;

Measurements made on previous dives showed the west vent as deep 82 feet (137 feet overall) and the east vent at 40 feet (95 feet overall). The National Park Service dive team also lowered a camera some 40 feet into the west vent and discovered it was a continual column of fluidized sand for the entire depth.Sep 28, 2021
