#photography #nature #Abeille
La loi de la physique dit que l'abeille ne peut pas voler, le principe de l'aérodynamique dit que son envergure est trop petite pour maintenir son énorme corps en vol, mais l'abeille ne le sait pas. Il ne sait rien ni en physique ni en logique, et en tout cas il vole.
C'est quelque chose que nous pouvons tous faire, voler et gagner à tout moment face à n'importe quelle difficulté et dans n'importe quelle situation, peu importe ce qu'ils disent.
Soyons des abeilles, peu importe la taille de nos ailes, décollons et profitons du pollen de la vie.
....
Hissam.


Young marmot, last year somewhere in Switzerland. We spent the night nearby, and were planning to shoot the Milky Way in the night. Unfortunately, the night turned out cloudy, so no luck there! But the luck returned in the morning, with a family of young marmots frolicking around.

I love seeing the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly in my backyard and the local gardens.

While researching I discovered that it was designated the state butterfly in 2012 and can be found in all 100 counties.

Gardens at Calke Abbey were laid out by Sir Harry Harpur and his son between 1770 & 1820. 
The formal garden has good bedding, herbaceous borders and Kitchen Garden provides a wide range of fruit and vegetables.
In the walled garden there is the only surviving Auricula theatre,  which was built to display these beautiful plants.

Exciting news: a grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia sp.) has moved into the observation panel at my insect hotel. The shiny yellow object on the right is the wasp egg. The tree crickets are all alive but paralyzed. #wasps #insects #entomology #TreeCricket #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae

THE ILLUSION OF MORAL DECLINE by Adam M. Mastroianni and Daniel T. Gilbert (Nature, 2023).

"In a series of studies using both archival and original data (n = 12,492,983), we show that people in at least 60 nations around the world believe that morality is declining, that they have believed this for at least 70 years and that they attribute this decline both to the decreasing morality of individuals as they age and to the decreasing morality of successive generations. Next, we show that people’s reports of the morality of their contemporaries have not declined over time, suggesting that the perception of moral decline is an illusion. Finally, we show how a simple mechanism based on two well-established psychological phenomena (biased exposure to information and biased memory for information) can produce an illusion of moral decline."

Sagres, Portugal is captivating in its natural beauty. Renowned for its pristine beaches & rock formations that stretch along the Algarve Coast & the Atlantic Ocean. Sagres is a surfers mecca with something to offer every level of surfer. Love the way the clouds mimic the waves of the sea.

#ClimateChange mitigation.

Wrong idea - The tech heads talk of constructing Carbon Capture machines. That would require hundreds of thousands of machines, more mining, more power consumption #fail

Right approach #nature

But, the photo of another deforested landscape. This is not wetland, Tree's used to & would grow here. Sheep keep it looking like this.

Photo taken in #Sheep District National Park, #England (officially called the Lake District National park)

#ClimateAction #ClimatePolicy
The photo shows a stream running through a deforested landscape. The only place where the odd tree grows is where humans or sheep couldn't get to them (e.g., on the vertical rocky crags).

As Tree's grow they capture carbon. To mitigate climate change we need to use solutions, big & small, that don't emit & or sequester atmospheric carbon dioxide
