A portrait of a red horse with blonde mane standing in the sun, looking straight at me. His mane is slightly off to one side in the wind. There is some frosty water droplets in his beard hairs.

Of course there were horses :)

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #photogenic, birds you find to be photogenic.

I don’t know about you, but I think this little Rufous-tailed Jacamar was certainly making a strong case for inclusion.

Thank you Belle. We have a number of herons in the area and they are a joy to photograph.

The #BlueSkyArtShow theme of the week is #Flowing.

The river is temporarily harnessed as it flows past an old mill.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #StandingInWater.

On a cold day in February, this Great Blue Heron tries its best to ward off the chill of winter.

OMG! I just now understand your comment. I think I knew this trivia before, but the mountain range (and later the national park) was named by French trappers long ago, apparently since they reminded them of something.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay alt theme is #ColourfulCaptures.

The Keel-billed Toucan (otherwise known as Fruit Loops) qualifies.

A photo of a long corridor at John Rylands Library Manchester. 
There are multiple gothic stone arches lit by soft golden lights. Several leaded windows are on the right side.
There is a stone flagged floor.
Light from the windows is creating shadows to fall onto the floor. 
At the end of the corridor there is a person wearing all black

It’s #ThrowBackThursday so I’m going to reach back to 2012 and a trip through southern England where I visited Winchester Cathedral and managed to find it empty.

What #lethargy compels one to scarcely voice
toils of melancholy so great for spoken words to barely leave their lips.

What kindness might turn the cheek of one whose heart could barely breathe.

Perhaps the tender touch of recognition for one not seen or for those whom barely speak.

Three cute fluffy yellow Canada Goose goslings are swimming to the right across a pond. They are lined up one in front of the other.

These three little amigos are rocking today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #SideView (birds that are side on to the camera) and also the Alt theme of #Yellow. (Canada Goose goslings)
