This Rufous-crowned Sparrow sang his complex song to me from within the Himalayan blackberry bushes. Taylor Crossing, Nevada Co, California on 16 July 2019.
With their asymmetrical ear openings, Saw-whet Owls (Aegolius acadicus) are among the most attentive of listeners. At a dinner party, for instance, they might hear even the most hushed of rumor-mongering from the corner of the room, and be able to share with you precisely what was said and by whom. In reality, they use this heightened sense of hearing while perched in an opportune branch in the night. With their disc-shaped faces angled downward, they listen for the rustling movement of mice and voles beneath the leaf-litter. So precise is their hearing, that they can accurately strike a prey item without ever seeing it.
A cherry pip, safe on its own and intact, but if chewed or ground, the amygdalin releases cyanide when metabolised within the body.
Various plant seeds or pits contain amygdalin, which releases cyanide when metabolised, including cherries. The amounts are small, so that in general, toxicity is not seen except in cases where a combination of factors seriously exacerbates the problem. Essentially, you need a pit or seed from some fruit of a plant in the family Rosaceae, generally from Prunus genus (cherries, plums, peaches, apricots, and almonds).
Under such conditions, you can ingest enough amygdalin to kill you. However, while some cherry pits do apparently contain amygdalin at the same concentrations as bitter apricot kernels, the amount you would have to eat is considerably more than two pits. The LD50 for bitter almonds (which are also similar to cherry and apricot kernels, with ~5% amygdalin content) in rats is estimated to be a little more than 3 grams per Kg of body weight.

Deep within the old china factory is this confined space with rails running through it. I read somewhere that there was a 200-foot tunnel kiln in this place, so I would guess that this is that.
Cave openings leading to tunnesl that go to various initiation wells at The Ibis Fountain. The pond was just coated with algae!

Construction was started in the 13th century BC by Pharaoh Seti I, it was completed by his son Ramesses II.
The temple was built to commemorate and worship the earlier pharaohs of Egypt, as well as the major gods of the Egyptian pantheon, such as Amun (or Amen-Rem).

Well Court (on the left) was built in 1886 for the owner of the "Scotsman" newspaper to "provide good quality housing for local people" . The architect included a mix of apartment sizes and a hall "to encourage social interaction and community spirit amongst the tenants."
Although Edinburgh has been identified as one of 14 tourist sites worldwide that have become overwhelmed with visitors, they were all over on the Royal Mile. This beautiful village on the edge of the downtown area, but within the city, was virtually deserted!
Nothing was done to this photo. The reflection captured my imagination...as if it were caught within.
First place....theme "wet & minimal" in Bare Minimum...August 24, 2009.
Situated within the Berchtesgaden Alps in the municipality of Schönau am Königsee, just south of Berchtesgaden and the Austrian city of Salzburg, the Königssee is Germany's third deepest lake. Located at a Jurassic rift, it was formed by glaciers during the last ice age. It stretches about 4.8 miles in a north-south direction and is about 1 mile across at its widest point. Except at its outlet, the Königsseer Ache at the village of Königssee, the lake is similar to a fjord, being surrounded by the steeply-rising flanks of mountains up to 8,900 feet, including the Watzmann massif in the west.
Thanks for taking a look. To see photos from the rest of the trip Click Here to see my Alps and More album.

Light Within by Ben Dearnley at Beaulieu Estate Sculpture Exhibition.
From Ben's page:
This large scale garden piece is the first of its kind for Ben and brings together his love of light, colour and poetry in one form. The sculpture invites the viewer to get up close and personal, and look through the open pupil at the landscape which surrounds it. Then to see the many colours which make up the iris where they will see lines of poetry and details, hand painted in the traditional methods of the many cathedral stained glass windows. The viewer is taken on a journey of their own discovery for the more they look, the more they will see.
"Often times, it is only when we stand silent and still that we hear and see what is just beneath the surface of our world." Ben Dearnley, Sculptor.
The sculpture is mad from steel and stained glass. Weight 25kg.

Nestled in the hills of the Aravalli range is the Ranakpur Jain temple dedicated to the first tirthankara (supreme preacher) of Jainism, Adinath.
The temple is one of the largest Jain temples and considered one of the five holiest Jain shrines in India.
The temple is a white marble structure spread over 4,500 square meters with 1444 marble pillars, twenty-nine halls, eighty domes and 426 columns. There are a total of 84 bhonyra (underground chambers) for storage and protection of idols from then marauders.

This was shot within 24 hours of Scotland's solar summer solstice.
For me, using my camera this time of year is highly unusual - in fact, I can look at the stats: unless I am on holiday somewhere at a lower latitude, May-August is the slowest time of year for producing images.
This is for a few reasons. One, summer used (*see below) to be my busiest time in my job, but not anymore. Two and certainly the most significant - I've avoided shooting from Spring Equinox to Autumn Equinox simply because the sun is so gosh dern high at 56 degrees north.
This year I was keen to change that, because, to be honest - I really need to get over it and get used to dealing with it better. My sleep is utterly awful around summer solstice and this year has been no different, but I am at least in control of how often I enjoy my favourite passtime, more recently on a cycle which my fatass needs to be on more often. We've been migrants here for 13 years and summer solstice simply can't continue to be something I wish away, especially when where we live is truly ridiculously beautiful.
If you've made it this far, thanks for reading. :) This is a 7 image full +/- 12mm lateral stitch resulting in a 13,400 pixel wide panoramic in a 21:9 cinematic ratio. Instagram is utterly pointless at this and I'm going to keep slagging it off until it changes, the habits of the global population changes, or I'm deid.

*Not no mo'! For, I have physically and metaphorically passed that torch to a much more capable and excellent person than I who will maybe/possibly/hopefully be joining us on this walk of the Water of Life later this year.
Went to the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx yesterday for the Orchid Show. Beautiful flowers including this water lily.

The roses has many hidden soul felt, depths to her beauty
As many a romantic soul realizes, love and gratitude are all rose's duty
A single rose expresses feelings in their uncomplicated, simplicity.
While a single rose in full bloom pronounces 'I love you' for eternity.
Though rose's delicate soft velvet petals display love, appreciation
Her huge palette of colours is her unique voice of symbolic conversation
"Within a Rose"
