You can see a family of swans. The parents are on the right and left, with the young between them. They are swimming in green water, and behind them you can see the overgrown bank.

A new day with new views is good for the soul! 📷🕊️ …
The Marina had moored boats mirrored in the water around the still inlet as the clouds above provided whimsy. The added bonus of the beautiful Winter blue sky provided backdrop for the day.

on the mighty mississippi yesterday
afternoon - 📸 by my brother
On the somewhat dried up, Mississippi river south of St. Louis, Missouri. Some slabs of snow covered ice washed up on the banks of the river at the bottom of the picture and around to the left. The opposite Bank of the river is lined with trees while the blue skies above reflect nicely off of all that water flowing south.. Taken by my brother yesterday while on retreat. ☮️

A terrible picture but the #moth or #butterfly is so dark and the lighting LED harsh bright that I can't do it justice. Black with very faint brown markings.

I'm wondering what it is and what it's doing existing in January?

Moin, Bluesky 🦋.
Der Tag startet mit direktem Blick auf den Hochnebel, der Nebel macht wohl Pause ☁️. Kein Pause gibt's für die Kaffeemaschine, die muss wieder ordentlich ran ☕️☕️.
Schöne Wochenteilung und Grüße aus dem heute nur trüben Süden ☁️👍🇦🇹

Good morning @Bluesky ☕️
and happy Wednesday 🍀

Wünsche euch einen entspannten Mittwochmorgen ☕️🤗 hier schon wieder keine Sonne in Sicht...aber ehrlich gesagt sollte es sowieso mehr regnen, da der Winter zu trocken war.

Hab euch die ersten Lenzrosen, die nicht eingetopft sind mitgebracht.
Rosa Lenzrosenblütenknospen mit Blattwerk, drumherum welkes Laub

There appears to be a WiFi oasis in the area of the Caspian Sea, as we battle headwinds travelling back to the UK ✈️ 📡 ☕️

A long flight, not helped by a ten hour delay overnight 🦇 🌘 🧳

Looking forward to witnessing my first rain this year 🌂 🌺 🙏

Happy Wednesday (I believe) to all 😇 🦋 🕊️

Wünsche euch einen wunderschönen Sonntagmorgen, hier regnet es heute mal wieder 🍀☕️🌧

Hab euch den ersten Krokus vom Garten mitgebracht, steht da so ziemlich einsam rum.
Einzelner lilafarbener Krokus, noch nicht aufgeblüht, drumherum zarte Blätter vom Sonnenhut und welke Stängel.

“The heart has its own quiet seasons.”
— John O’Donohue
The photo shows a tree in the foreground with its branches heavily coated in fresh snow, almost sculptural in how thick the snow sits on them. Behind it, more snow‑covered trees fade into the background, and the ground is blanketed in white. Overhead, power lines cut across a sky that’s partly cloudy, with a warm glow from the rising or setting sun softening the coldness of the landscape.
