A white-throated magpie jay sitting on the back of a wooden chair at an outdoor restaurant. Its head is turned to the side. It has a white face and breast, a black necklace and jaunty hat, and blue feathers on its head and wings.

Morning, Mr. Magpie

Her lips touched his brain as they touched his lips, as though they were a vehicle of some vague speech and between them he felt an unknown and timid pressure, darker than the swoon of sin, softer than sound or odour

A rose branch with rose hips bends from right to left. Many rose hips are black, but some are still bright red. The background is blurred (bokeh).

A brown meandering river in front of a glacier front, with ice patterns in front. The glacier is very turquoise with deep crevasses.

One of the coolest sights I saw on my recent trip to #Iceland - a meandering river along the front of a glacier. I've always been intrigued by ox-bow lakes forming and love to look out for them from aeroplanes, so was delighted to see this formation from my drone in the ice!

Did you know that >40 countries have gender discriminatory nationality laws that deny women the right to confer nationality on their child or spouse or to acquire, change, or retain their nationality on an equal basis with men?

Dubai expat crisis Man in suit: Attacks imminent? Phew! I thought you said 'a tax imminent! PHOTOBUBBLE: NICK NEWMAN

By Nick Newman.

Our photograph shows a piece of street art painted on a large, weathered brick wall beside a damp pavement. The scene has a moody, night time feeling The paint on the wall is worn and peeling in places, revealing patches of lighter colour underneath, which gives the background a rough, aged texture. At the centre of the artwork is the stencilled figure of a young girl, painted in pale blue and white tones that glow softly against the dark wall. The glow creates a halo-like outline around her and the birds near her, making them stand out vividly from the background. The girl appears to be standing in profile, facing toward the left side of the image. She has short hair cut in a simple bob and is wearing a knee-length dress. In her left hand she holds up a small bowl, as though offering food. Around her, several birds, likely pigeons or doves, circle and gather. Some birds are perched on the ground near her feet, while others appear mid-flight above her, wings spread wide. Their silhouettes are simple and graphic, each surrounded by the same glowing blue aura that surrounds the girl. The birds’ wings are captured in different positions, giving the impression of movement and fluttering. Two birds stand on the ground near the girl’s feet, while others hover above and around her outstretched arm, as if swooping down to feed from the bowl. The arrangement creates a sense of lively motion around an otherwise calm figure. Faintly painted or scratched into the wall to the right of the girl are the words “THERE ARE ALWAYS BIRDS,” though the lettering is subtle and partially blended into the dark bricks. At the bottom of the wall, a thin strip of green moss and small plants grows where the wall meets the pavement. Overall, the artwork gives the feeling of quiet kindness and gentleness, as the glowing child calmly feeds birds in the middle of an otherwise dark and gritty urban setting. Finally, our picture is finished with a white board frame.

Good morning. Happy Tuesday.
Solace, in peaceful waters. Settled, after their flow nourishes those growing surefooted, in conditions found difficult, building resolve, strength.

Two opinions can simultaneously be right on criminal justice, ahead of the Courts and Tribunals Bill vote.

Victims are correct to say the process takes too long. It does and that's a national disgrace.

But lawyers are also right to say restricting juries is not the answer to this problem.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme by @alan678.bsky.social is #Corvidae ie Crows, Jays, and Magpies. The alt is #LongNecks any bird with a long neck. #birds #photography #wildlife #crows soooo here's a Jackdaw with his handsome blue eyes 😍 Settings etc: dombarker.co.uk/posts/253

“An open room with 70 people breathing the same stale air. The lights that never quite dim. The strange intimacy of strangers forced to share space, each person trying to carve out a fragment of dignity where none could be found.”
