竹の隙間から。 もうすぐ渡りでしょうか。

She looks like someone who just realized some weirdo's been taking unsolicited pictures of her. And she should.

Ooh I just had a thought! regarding the expansion and how it mentioned that “existing sky islands of alternate universe copies of the world below” is going to be a thing, do you think that it’s possible that they can somehow add back in the retconned Malyck storyline with the “other tree” this way too? Like if there is an AU pale tree or a sister tree up in the sky (that was chosen instead of the pale tree; possibly not connected to the dream bc of it being an alternate universe or whatever) up above in the AU grove/caledon (if it were to exist), and maybe if his pod somehow fell down and survived into our caledon, would that be possible? I think it would be really cool to see an alternate “Pale tree” or “sister of the pale tree” (another mother tree) and all those other different sylvari!! (although I’m like 90% sure this won’t happen since I assume this is going to be yet again more human lore stuff, but I can dream!) Granted I also know little to nothing about the old GW1 stuff, I’m just speculating based on what I’ve learned from lore videos and the vague info we have been given. 

Zamazenta.

Your older sister, Zacian, right?

Do you want to talk about her?

I miss her. She was the only reason my father's court didn't break me...

25th February 2024: Lesser Spotted Woodpecker and more at Acres Down in the New Forest, Weston Shore and home

Photos taken in this set are of; views on a magical early morning visit to Acres Down, the exquisite Lesser Spotted Woodpecker at Acres Down - the main species we had come to try and see - which I was overjoyed to see what a remarkable and sensational bird it was utopian to watch it on the tree and hear its angelic soft and soothing drumming so early in the day one of my bird moments of the year I'm so pleased to have seen one four years running now, Stock Doves at Acres Down, Carrion Crow at Weston Shore in the rain this afternoon and colourful skimmia in the garden at home.

It was also fantastic to see our first Woodlarks of the year on another great walk around at Acres Down an excellent bird I was hoping to see here too. Other highlights at Acres Down were Bramblings what a year I've had for them on our frequent visits here so far this year, lots of Chaffinches, Lesser Redpoll, Coal Tit, Great Tit, Firecrest seen so well again for a second day running here, Robin, Song Thrush and gorse. At Weston Shore Little Egret, Great Crested Grebe, Cormorant, Mute Swan, Pied Wagtail and red deadnettle were good to see. It was lovely to chat to some fellow birdwatchers this morning one of which joined us as we were watching the Lesser Spotted Woodpecker at it's favoured tree and it was his first sighting in twenty years, the bird had flown off after we'd seen it twice when he arrived so I was thrilled when it returned for a third time and it underlines just what a massive thing seeing this one of my favourite birds is.

Sat down for my 9-5 office job, and was excited to open the NYT crossword for the day, I'm 23

Fringilla montifringilla [アトリ,Brambling]

荒れた竹林の中、たくさんのアトリが採餌していました。

You know what they say: When life gives you snow, eat it.

城址はアトリの10羽程度の群れがいくつか入っているようで、数箇所でアトリと遭遇しました。緑を背景にすると映える色彩ですが、落ち葉や土を背景にすると溶け込んでしまう😓　集団でちょこちょこ動くし、ある程度の距離を保たないとすぐ逃げるし、草や落ち葉に隠れるので、かっちり撮影するのはなかなか難しいです💧　 さらに今日は天気が良い分、ブレは少ないけどコントラストが強く出てしまう…。 てなわけで、小梅園の木の下で、木漏れ日を利用して撮影しました📸 昨日の雨で木のウロに水が溜まっているらしく、一瞬ですが飲みにきてくれました。目線だったので、ラッキーでした❣️ #アトリ #brambling #福岡城址の野鳥 #sony #α7riii (大濠公園周辺) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpuvttIPieN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

one of the most fun things i did in pokemon scarlet was to put "Ramblin' Man" on repeat and go for a cross country trek with my bramblin so it could evolve, needed to take 1000 steps while it rolled along with me. got into so many scrapes together

I'm so in love with Peitha, I hope she whispers ominous vaguely threatening sweet nothings into my ears forever u///u
