A tall cypress among lower (and definitely lowlier) trees in a bright green meadow, against a bright blue sky.

Spent last week in Sunderland visiting my Aunties who were too ill to be at Mum’s funeral.
We did plenty reminiscing & laughed a lot despite the sadness.
My ‘many’ cousins took me out,got me tipsy and we took long walks by the sea.
It did me the world of good.
Often, others know what’s best for you🤍
A low cloudy sky just before sunset reflecting on wet sand by the sea with small waves receding. On the horizon in the distance is Roker lighthouse.

From #MountainMonday straight into #RockinTuesday — courtesy of the Dolomites.

A photograph taken at Piz Boè in the Sella Group of the Dolomites, showing towering vertical rock walls rising sharply from a broad, snow-covered basin. The cliffs have a warm, reddish-beige tone with darker streaks and deep vertical grooves, giving the surfaces a rugged, weathered texture. Sunlight highlights the natural variations in color, from soft amber to shadowy brown. Snow clings to ledges and fills the narrow gaps between the rock towers. In the foreground, smooth, wind-shaped snowfields stretch across the basin, punctuated by a few scattered rocks. Above the cliffs, the sky appears deep blue with faint wisps of cloud. The scene feels bright, cold, and monumental, emphasizing the striking contrast between the warm-toned rock and the crisp white snow.

This male Resplendent Quetzal was a nice surprise at our cabin when we arrived at San Gerardo de Dota this afternoon.

An der Westküste gab es am Sonnabend blauen Himmel. 🌊
There was blue sky on the west coast on Saturday.

Eine ruhige Wattlandschaft bei klarem Himmel mit leichtem Blau und einigen dünnen Wolkenstreifen. Im Vordergrund sind flache Wasserflächen mit kleinen, verstreuten Grasbüscheln zu sehen. Rechts verläuft ein Deich mit einer grasbewachsenen Oberfläche, der sich bis zum Horizont erstreckt. Die Szene vermittelt eine weite, offene Küstenlandschaft.

Here's something childish to start your week.

If you'd like one of these to hand in the loo, I can draw one for you.

An old window of little square panes in metal, in a very thick wall. In the middle is a section that can actually be opened. Outside you can see one of the towers of the Palace of Westminster, a corner of a red bus and a tree.

This Three-toed Sloth was taking care of its morning ablutions on the Osa Peninsula this morning.

A sloth hangs upside down from a tree trunk, gripping the branches with its long curved claws, surrounded by large green tropical leaves.

USFWS staff spotted band EX25 on 11/25. No, he has not been named; we await that news.
So far we have a few photos and we'll share more as we receive them.
Here's to a successful egg laying and hatching season for these two!
