Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run;
To bend with apples the mossed cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
— John Keats

[Euripides is speaking] of the nature of God, which fills His works with beauty, and teaching both where God must be, and that He must be One.

During hibernation #bumblebee queens avoid freezing to death by producing glycerol which acts like antifreeze preventing water in their bodies turning into ice crystals.

The tourists crossed to Ireland for a short trip, and after returning to Scotland, made their way into Ayrshire, entering it a little beyond Cairn. Their walk led them into a long wooded glen. 'At the end,' writes Keats, July 10, 1818, 'we had a gradual ascent and got among the tops of the mountains whence in a little time I descried in the Sea Ailsa Rock, 940 feet…

This is important, people! We have to get out there and protect New Zealand. This is not a country for wealth extraction through environmental destruction. Let's keep the clean and green image! Be there....or don't complain when one of the few great things left about NZ disappears. #Aotearoa #NZ #newzealand #conservation #trekking #hiking #fishing #nature #taiao #greenpeace #green

This was my best photo of the Bicheno Blow-Hole yesterday. It was a highish tide, which made for better water spray.
Well, this was a first. Today, I went fly fishing for the first time ever! I had a lesson from a family member (left) who has lived here and fly fished his entire life. I also spent a lot of time watching the “master” at work. No outdoor adventure is complete without a dog (owned by the family member) who has accompanied him on fishing adventures since being a pup. A fun day! #Colorado #fishing

‘Whether was it pride,
Which out of daily fortune ever taints
The happy man? whether defect of judgment,
To fail in the disposing of those chances
Which he was lord of? or whether nature,
Not to be other than one thing; not moving
From the casque to the cushion, but commanding peace
Even with the same austerity and garb
As he controlled the war?’”

Hard by a great forest dwelt a wood-cutter with his wife, who had an only child, a little girl of three years old. They were, however, so poor that they no longer had daily bread, and did not know how to get food for her. One morning the wood-cutter went out sorrowfully to his work in the forest, and while he was cutting wood, suddenly there stood before him a…

"We force animals to adapt to the constraints of farming modelled on the mass production of manufactured goods, whereas farming should respect the ethological needs of animals. This is a transgression because we grant ourselves an absolute right that we do not have. This violence towards animals is a condemnation of us. Yet our relationship with animals could be an opportunity to think about a way of inhabiting the Earth that makes coexistence with other species possible. This requires new foundations for ethics and politics."

Yes, we know we may be disturbing people who are enjoying their weekend, and we sincerely apologize if our repeated messages are becoming too much.
But we are reaching out because we are scared of losing what we have worked so hard to begin. We have come this far with the well, and the thought of seeing it left unfinished after everything we have invested in it is heartbreaking.
We have tried to explain briefly in our GoFundMe update what is happening and why we urgently need additional support. The challenges we are facing could force the work to stop, but with your help, we still have a chance to finish what we started.
If we are disturbing or confusing anyone this weekend, please forgive us. We truly would not keep asking if it were not necessary.
Please, if you can support us at this critical moment, your help could be what keeps this well from being abandoned. We need you now more than ever. https://www.gofundme.com/f/water-well-at-eco-youths-farm?utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_content=amp20_t1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link&lang=en_US
