Zu alt, um nur zu spielen. Zu jung, um ohne Wunsch zu sein.
Humming birds
If you are sitting on a live wire will you start humming after a while?

Those who are always sitting there are sitting there
Do sitze die, wu immer do sitze.
This is a kind of weird sculpture because it is supposed to encourage people to sit down but the sculpture people take up most of the space.

The malicious have a dark happiness
It is quite probably unfair to label this duck malicious but look at his face. The Victor Hugo quote just suits him perfectly.
for Six Word Saturday:
Vineyard visitor
I came across this beauty and I couldn’t walk past without snapping her up (figuratively speaking). I found her appropriately in a vineyard because in German this kind of snail is known as a vineyard snail (Weinbergschnecke) but I learned now that it is known in English as Roman snail, Burgundy snail (!), large garden snail, escargot or edible snail (ha!).
Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Take a New Photo or Photos – Any topic
Holy Five
Excuse the pun in the title – this is for Thursday Special: Pick a Word and I tried to get a photo which satisfies all 5 in one go AND it is a photo from Holy Island (Lindisfarne) off the coast of Northumberland.
Setting – well the hue of the photo suggests it was close to sunset.
Nubilous – slightly fuzzy, not very clear, it definitely is, due to zooming in so close, and the lateness of the day.
Motley – very much a motley collection of boats on an untidy looking beach at low tide.
Growth – maybe a slight stretch but the ruins of the old priory look to me as if they were growing out of the soil.
Nautical – no comment needed.
