Goldcrest is the smallest bird species in Finland (maybe also of Europe). Surviving a nordic winter exclusively on insects and spiders is an astonishing deed. For this fluff ball the worst was behind :)
Finally...
It was coming down the very boulder I was resting my head on, maybe 30 cm from me.

"There is Morgoth of the uttermost evil, unseen in this story but ruling over a vast military power from his fortress of Angband. Deeply opposed to #Morgoth is #Ulmo, second in might only to #Manwë, chief of the #Valar. But he works in secret in Middle-earth to support the Noldor, the kindred of the Elves among whom were numbered Húrin and Túrin Turambar."

One autumn weekend I decided to put my new tent in use. Packed my gear and drove to a nearby coastal nature reserve. After the well slept night I woke up to enjoy my morning coffee watching this view. Good times! #nature #photography #photo #sunrise
"Remembrement"
#OpenSource pro tip:
Real-time (synchronous) phone/video/whatever conference calls or meetings *always* exclude potential segments of your community.
Don't be tempted.
In synchronous live meetings, a few dominant personalities dominate the discussion. For asynchronous online communication, everyone gets a chance.
Consider time zone conflicts. Language challenges. Cognitive or physical challenges.
Don't leave these voices out.
