I like them both, but the second is almost surreal.  :)

After several failed attempts I was able at last to get a picture of the trainspotter Ent of Dessau.

Unfortunately the right perspective is only possible from the moving train. From the path going by the tree the 'eye' is totally wrong and the area between the path and the train tracks looks swampy and there is also a fence.
Knurrhähne sind eßbar aber empfehlen würde ich das nicht unbedingt.
The aspitriglos is edible though I do not actually recommend it.

Never mind, it's clearly an Ent.  Probably old Trainbeard, I shouldn't wonder.  He's hoping one day a train will be bringing the Entwives, (dirty ole blaggard).

May I present Bruno the UBA bird caught here on camera in the evening near the agency entrance:

He's cute!  Even if he does have wheelnuts for eyes!  I think I'll dust the welder off.

Hope you like this view in Kilpeck church.  It hasn't changed substantially for over 850 years.  I find that really puts our little lifetimes in perspective.

Speaking of flying beasts, we went to a small sanctuary in the city and they had among other things a falconry show:
This is the pond in front of which the show took place:

A kestrel:

A hawk in action:

And a hawk in flight:


I'd love to take pics of my 'tiels flying but in the enclosure of our apartment, without much natural light and at the speed of their flight it's very difficult to get a good one.  :-\

Sorry about that, Zono!  Senior moment.  I swallowed my false teeth and was trying to fish them out with my walking stick when my Zimmer frame collapsed and I got muddled .....   :mrgreen:
