I didn’t have much luck at the weekend with #botanical #photography - it was rainy and I had a lot of work to do. I want to share, nevertheless, a mobile phone photo of the big #Datura inoxia which showed up between the newly planted #vine #plants in our vineyard… It’s unlikely it came with the vine plants as those arrived without soil, and also the Senior said he has seen Daturas growing on our land in different places before, so it seems to be somewhat established here. May I remind you, that’s not the #Mediterranean, that’s the #Elbe Valley in #Saxony, Germany. (Note: reposted.)

Datura inoxia - plant in a vineyard in the Elbe valley, Saxony, Germany.

Good Morning and happy Sunday. Coffee now, some work mails later and then will spend a few hours with #botanical #photography. I saw some interesting species yesterday in the fatherly vineyard, neophytical species like a quite gigantic Datura inoxia which is a neophyte in warmer regions of Europe, such as the Mediterranean. I am not sure whether its been introduced with new vine #plants we ordered from Southern #Germany or how it arrived here at the Saxon #Elbe Valley, which always was very hot and dry but becoming even more so, due to #climate change effects. Will be interesting to see whether the #plant comes back after the winter - we will have to remove it, as it interferes with the newly planted #vine plants for light and water. #botany #nature #plantphotography #naturephotography #climatechange #neophyte

MON BEAU SAPIN

Cet arbre était un sapin de Noël en pot de quand ma fille aînée qui a 22 ans était encore toute petite. On l'a planté dans le jardin et il a grandi.

A mon avis il a un peu chaud par chez nous, il n'est pas super fourni, mais il est toujours là et grand.

Y avait un peu de soleil derrière mais on ne le voit pas comme sur les deux photos précédentes.

Vous en pensez quoi de cette photo? Mérite-t-elle un tirage d'art pour mon stand?

Great Egret - Mom & Newborn in Nest

In the midst of nesting season, here is a hatchling and mom in their nest.

Very cute fluff balls, they soon turn into boisterous 'teens' with buzz-cut haircuts looking like a cross between Bart Simpson and Don King.

Here is a video of some juveniles doing what I called 'The Dance of the Great Egret"

More still photos of birds @ http://www.fenichel.com/birds - and more videos on YouTube.
