Dans un parc municipal, en route pour L'Île de la Visitation.
J'étais déçu de ne pas voir davantage d'érables, sur l'île...
On y retrouve surtout des #trembles.
In a municipal park, on my way to L'Île de la Visitation.
I was disappointed not to see more #maples on the island...
There are mostly #aspens.

Un jour en vrac
réplique du jour: « Mon art impressionne beaucoup par son côté vaginal, les hommes en sont déstabilisés, le mot en lui-même les perturbe... vagin. Ils n'aiment pas l'entendre et le trouvent difficile à prononcer alors que sans battre des cils, ils parlent volontiers de leur bite, de leur dard ou alors de leur... zézette. » The big Lebowski (film) de 1998

Dogs may use Earth’s magnetic field to take shortcuts | Science | AAAS
Dogs are renowned for their world-class noses, but a new study suggests they may have an additional—albeit hidden—sensory talent: a magnetic compass. The sense appears to allow them to use Earth’s magnetic field to calculate shortcuts in unfamiliar terrain.#science #wildlife #animals #environment #natureDogs may use Earth’s magnetic field to take shortcuts

Nature is a brutal place, so during brooding, chinstrap and Adélie penguins are reluctant to leave their eggs unguarded in the nest—even to relieve themselves. But one also does not wish to sully the nest with feces. So instead, a brooding penguin will hunker down, point its rear end away from the nest, lift its tail, and let fly a projectile of poo—thereby ensuring both the safety of the eggs and the cleanliness of the nest.@Jörn W #worldoftoilets Endlich mal spannende Wissenschaft. Wie weit fliegt die Scheiße von Pinguinen?
It builds on findings of a 2003 study that won an Ig Nobel Prize in Fluid Dynamics.arstechnica.com
This cuteness overload is 🐰Pörri🤍, a baby brown hare who has been residing at @saijaszoo since June 16th.
Pörri had been seen "hovering" in a residential area, eventually getting scared by a lawn mower and ending up in someones´s house terrace. Since the mother hare hadn´t been seen there at any time, an intervention had to be made as the little one still has to be nursed and doesn´t consume solid foods yet. Pörri is quite lively and energetic and if everything continues to go well, will be released back into the wild as soon as the wee wabbit grows a bit and will be able to take care of himself... or herself (the gender can´t be identified at this stage).
I can´t make any promises, but I´ll update this post if and when I can.
I have a few more pics and a short vidclip of Pörri, but I have a bit of a technical issue with the files at the moment - you´ll get to see them when I figure it out !

Des songes d’eau
Je trace les motifs des songes
au travers d’êtres déguisés
libérés en particules évanouies
révélant des éclats de moi-même.
Dans l’espoir de guérir mes naufrages,
je pourchasse un sommeil en cavale,
ultime refuge où ancrer mon vaisseau.
Dreams Like Water
I trace patterns in dreams
through beings disguised
undone like particles broken apart
revealing pieces of me.
I pursue elusive sleep
in the hope to heal mishaps
the last chance to anchor my boat.
