Garden sculpture of an owl. The owl is the mascot of Temple University, where I went to med school with Hippocrates.

This is the Harbor Freight Tools hardware store located at 129 Ridgeview Road located in the Ridgeview Shopping Center in Wise, VA. It opened in part of the former Kmart in fall 2016; interestingly, in order to open this store, the old garden shop structure was taken down.

And a beautiful one at that!

A wise old owl lived in an oak

The more he saw the less he spoke.

The less he spoke the more he heard...

Why can't we all be like that wise old bird?

 

Whenever I see owls, I think of this fun quote. This owl was difficult to spot he was so quiet and still hiding behind the branches of the tree. I had to give it my best effort. Hope you like my peek-a-boo shot.

This could either be a social distancing reminder, or a chaperone sign for a school dance.

All I'm really asking is, what are we doing here

Are we just killing time just living year to year

In this big world, no one else can play our part

Ain't it time to just wake up and give it all

"We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future."

'Wise old owl lived in an oak,

the less he spoke the more he heard:

why can't we all be like that wise old bird?'

 

This children's rhyme dates back to the late 19th century, author unknown.

I had the great opportunity of photographing the collection at the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center in Mystic, CT. I love Natural History!

Wisdom grows with age and

deteriorates with time.

Baby sage - Salvia microphylla

This gorgeous old fellow lives at the bottom of my garden and can often be seen catching some rays!

 

"And oh when I'm old and wise

BItter words mean little to me

Autumn winds will blow right through me

And someday in the mist of time

When they asked me if I knew you

I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine

And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes

Oh when I'm old and wise"

 

The Alan Parsons Project - Old and Wise

I have been checking an owl nest lately to see if the babies would show themselves. I finally saw them tonight but couldn't get any good shots - so I thought I would post a picture of the male.

(EXPLORE) Back to the Parrot Refuge in Coombs, B.C. for today's post......this older fellow was one of the first to greet me and had loads of personality. You can see he's looking a little worn around the edges but you barely noticed that with his sunny disposition.

 

I hope the response from Black Day Sunday opened some eyes and ears at flickr.....I think many of the old & wise members voiced their concerns very well. This site should not cater to just the new and young "followers", this is a community for all ages.

Having grown up in the South (southern United States), it took a southern writer like Flannery O'Connor to peel the scales from my eyes. She showed me a different vision of spirituality and American belief. Although there are stand alone versions of Wise Blood, the one I read was in this edition, 3 By Flannery O'Connor.

Wise Coaches purchased this Volvo B10M-62 Jonckheere Deauville from Ramblers back in 2013 and it retains their familiar green and black livery when snapped in Brighton this afternoon, 28th November, 2018. It was new to Shearings as M605 ORJ.

Two wise men... Mary's Christmas Nativity scene. Only two of the three wise men showed up - you know they're hard to find these days!

No one can become wise until they know they have more to learn.

Las Cruces, NM

Seeing as how I'm planning to go out tomorrow morning and shoot around in this massive snow storm we got in Michigan today, I thought it would be appropriate to post something from the other end of the spectrum, weather-wise. This was shot our last night on Captiva, well after sunset a scant five days ago. This Osprey kindly sat perfectly still during the 30 second exposure.
