I’ve felt a little guilty-ish about just stopping my daily photo selection, editing, &amp; posting routine which I’ve felt has been a good habit for me - and something I enjoy. But then I think, well, no-one probably even notices anyway. So it’s nice to know someone noticed. I am excited about the photos I’ve been taking here in Spain the past few weeks and though it may take a while but I will be sharing my favorites from them as soon as I can. 2026-10-25T20:49:21Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqml0mxfg8ep5rqs565hpgghj4mr8sulph3qgqpvdteudwvzx2ecczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvaasn0h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyv8nxrajxssac3z77azw7m6ksqtk4jr3r2umw3pwq8c8ed34xjsckk0xpp'>nevent1q…0xpp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>hi Ciara, and thanks. All is well, eventually I will get back to my posting routine, just taking a little break. I’ve been splitting time between the US and Spain since I retired earlier this year and for the past month I’ve been on the Spain side - taking lots and lots of photos but also busy with projects on my house here and with visitors - and in the evenings while my usual routine is to go through photos I’ve just been too tired, literally falling asleep while editing. 2026-10-25T19:16:55Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswrqfzmk9tkntkq7f3c9l0amps0rph64qfuvhl9wa779ywqem2gcczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsv9zl2ek Castell de Sant Iscle, near the town of Vidreres in the province of #Girona.<br/><br/>#TravelTuesday #photography #MedievalRuins #MedievalCastle #Catalonia #Spain<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/355/347/472/062/323/original/80b44b3709ba9876.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-29T16:48:16Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9sxepkmtnxynpqeuhw08hknwlscfzszqv8mvzdv993zt9sp9yqpqzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvr8zwe9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs28pp6tgt5lmpswu05x5yfrth2w9n7l28p4sa8mg7v5nj38dxuzpqlrl4vf'>nevent1q…l4vf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>thanks, yes most of the hummingbirds I see around our backyard have lots of pollen on their heads. I grow the red Turk’s Cap flowers in my garden, as seen in the background, that are native to TX &amp; loved by the hummingbirds, and they have a long pistil extending from their center with stamens near the end such that they exactly brush against a visiting hummingbird’s head.

Used to be we’d get some sort of cool-ish front - the beginning of the end of summer weather - around the equinox, but now we don’t get those till sometime in Oct. After the post-spring migration lull we have a couple of resident ruby-throated that appear in July, but more start showing up in mid-Aug. Then around now, late-Sept, those numbers start dwindling, usually males first, and by end of Oct they are all gone till spring. 2026-09-21T19:36:33Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsr2cuqqjam0y5nxggaj3zenq0drmt66m3plse2gz9gk5yes6frs0qzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvg0h8sj The summer heat continues here but it seems the #hummingbirds are starting their migration to the south, no longer seeing the regulars that were hanging around, just new ones moving through.<br/><br/>#MondaysAreForTheBirds #birds #BirdPhotography #BackyardBirds #migration<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/309/757/309/620/805/original/1199b9953b589807.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-21T15:34:05Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqstxevvdrlkzlwht08lxufckzjktr7czcxzflsfnm825qzsun2tqrqzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvg5cqc0 Turk’s Cap and the morning sun.<br/><br/>#SilentSunday #StunDay #photography #sun #flowers #BloomScrolling #nature<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/304/206/651/845/158/original/f0b66b8b93cb346d.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-20T16:02:29Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsf73450a5tkzysv3zqr35j5z2c2t3nr9j8afk6gzjk5csw9fa0shczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsv5pasv4 The strawberry marauder.<br/><br/>#SquirrelSaturday #squirrels #SquirrelsOfMastodon #photography #nature #BackyardWildlife<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/298/382/001/558/511/original/9cdef9ef6a29de44.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-19T15:21:16Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswsfz8f8vg3qc6lm0k09c3j6xedfqgwjw4g0d2v7t56v22cs548gqzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvrefx2r Carrer Jaume Ferrer, Vidreres<br/><br/>#FensterFreitag #photography #StreetPhotography #Catalonia #Spain<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/293/089/242/456/350/original/b50c861c5a074dda.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-18T16:55:11Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs2esaghs7jlztncp5cgl6apml5j5razxlmvr6g5eyszvdttwgs30qzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvklp4mc Blue dasher.<br/><br/>#photography #dragonfly #insects #InsectPhotography #MacroPhotography #nature<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/287/372/277/328/159/original/685efe068b39760d.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-17T16:41:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsq0x659zrdhu3793r948jyssmn2lds55ff7unj8hr32nlecpqeqxqzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsv0yj45f Walking the Camí de Ronda coastal footpath near the Platja de Castell.<br/><br/>#MeerMittwoch #photography #seascape #TravelPhotography #hiking #Mediterranean #CostaBrava #Catalonia #Spain<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/281/409/727/125/462/original/bd4216667f6f42be.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-16T15:24:55Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsrmyy3kulrs84rvpjdxkqhzudm3p3u74cf8m0uxp464d9esymkwqczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvrjnz5r Sunset from the bell tower of Peratallada.<br/><br/>#TravelTuesday #photography #sunset #bell #travel #Catalonia #Spain<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/117/275/747/664/848/210/original/0fb25bb9f036f6fa.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-09-15T15:24:59Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0q7v5y83jtn2ywrs3pp400pg9s9u4jpznm2usth8d6w8lpyqzg7qzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsv02gd3f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0wvg7zp7pyl7yn5zu9u575g6v3m9qglclp9gkk5pxkcxjspaycygzsq86k'>nevent1q…q86k</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>around here (SE TX) I see individuals from both species molting like this in mid to late summer.

They’ve always been attracted to my other flowers especially zinnias, and I do have an abundance of those blooming right now. But very few fritillaries visiting. 2026-07-26T17:55:14Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsd6t4l7l2lklv52g5fxec07m5hmvhn37mrfyypt3vd2wmxce0ypagzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvvsw28n Gulf fritillary #butterfly, not seeing as many of them around this summer. <br/><br/>#SilentSunday #Stunday #photography #nature #butterflies #insects #InsectPhotography #flowers<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/116/986/459/714/026/767/original/906fc7eedcd481cb.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-26T13:15:17Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsf6t3qrpkemzujcrmdg27xqp6a3gpdl0kxclyq4q7hz67d8q82chgzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvn04786 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstru9lpt66ac35zxdvxe0allr68awr6uyfye8yv3lwqcckck95ywgmz9taz'>nevent1q…9taz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I don’t mind at all - wow that’s great!

This one I watched for two consecutive mornings using that same dried up flower stem in my front garden (in southeast TX) as its hunting perch. It would occasionally fly off for a moment, I assume to grab a snack that was flying past, but always came back to the same perch. So I have dozens of photos of it, will share more here in the future. 2026-07-23T20:10:37Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsv8cq7vxu0852anms3szxldywkgy5xvl9vnpdtcx8w77eja853gsqzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvexjgst In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs282peyqfymjn9w3ru5uhpz72h0cc9he85lnrsfl9m5mcm7lyzpsstmj7vl'>nevent1q…j7vl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>if only it had a finger to give… 2026-07-23T18:21:19Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswqc5znnucxxtcjnju8v68jnnmwvh30nz3n0krnxm58u4d9he72qczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsv47xxmg Blue dasher #dragonfly twisting its head and rubbing an eye with a foreleg. <br/><br/>#photography #MacroPhotography #insects #InsectPhotography #nature<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/116/970/040/373/604/390/original/67165fadd6bab755.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-23T15:39:36Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsg3hruhgem64dy3c804jpatyum9xwneuxuwkxr3ljc8ezmgpza8xczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvujscep Playa Cala Sa Boadella<br/><br/>#MeerMittwoch #photography #seascape #TravelPhotography #MediterraneanSea #CostaBrava #Catalonia #Spain<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/116/964/600/966/554/158/original/c12621df782c8d0b.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-22T16:36:19Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsdzjnsqwkqh66rf85r6vccgnvfchc4dtjng5fldaz0lap2zjrydcgzyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvk5578q Pont Nou, originally built in the early 13th century, located in the town of Camprodon in the #Catalan #Pyrenees of northeastern #Spain. <br/><br/>#TravelTuesday #photography #TravelPhotography #bridge #Catalonia<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/116/958/698/649/826/537/original/73d047cbc4da4e92.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-21T15:35:15Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqswmuph7rcxsl5qpujw0ehu7wuzve34hr3fk2cyp74susg9p3fwphczyq05ytwr9fvkq3rgkh7h2s25n73mlakk96cg56ghpkev00k3mshsvag8azj Ruby-throated #hummingbird visiting a pot of pink pentas in the backyard. <br/><br/>#MondaysAreForTheBirds #photography #birds #BirdPhotography #BackyardBirds<br/> <img src="https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/116/952/947/718/663/334/original/c4cfbc81bcefe3c7.jpeg"> <br/> 2026-07-20T15:12:43Z
