From Norway

I took this picture on a ferry ride amongst the fjords.

 

Pictures from Eastern Shore

 I like spiderwebs on trees, it reminds us that bugs are EVERYWHERE, not just in corners of our homes.

Sometimes it's just art.

A bird's nest on the VERY top of a tree.

Some squash has overgrown at the Delaware  Botanic Garden.

I caught a deer during her snack break.

And here's a bunny caught in the sunlight

Geese on the East River

The geese at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden are MIA.  While I was out on my After Lunch Constitutional by the East River I heard some honking.

Sure, you can say they weren't talking to me, but you can't prove they weren't!

Those pictures were taken in June, 2024.  Ten days into 2025 the geese are gone but I've got ducks hanging out on the docks.

Rome!

 I went to Rome!   So I could have a picture of me taken in front of the basement of the Colosseum, where they kept the gladiators, prisoners and wild animals that would fight to the death for the audience's amusement..

A shot of the Colosseum from the outside.

A view of Constantine's Arch built to celebrate Constantine's victory of Maxentius in 312 CE.

Everyone steals from everyone;  this is an Egyptian obelisk outside the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, near where we were staying.

 

There's an Archeology Museum that's built right next door to archeological digs.

This is the fountain at the end of the Via Nazionale (where I was staying).
