Still life with milk can As seen in one of the buildings of the Schlosshof palace on Austria's eastern border
Harvest Time 2010-09-22 Veltliner grapes ready for harvest, as seen in the gardens of the Schlosshof palace on Austria's eastern border. Many thanks for the comments on the two alpacas! They were fun to watch. This will be the last posting for a while... "leaving on a night train, don't know when I'll be back again". Well, actually I have a fairly good idea, but we are travelling without a schedule and without children (first time in 30 years). If we hit a place with wifi, I'll try to comment.
Here he comes again 2010-08-26 The (presumably) male in the background kept buzzing this small butterfly that was feeding. Seen the the Upper Lobau section of the Danube Wetlands National Park. My butterfly book seems to have been mislaid - so this is an "Orange multi-spotted". Seen while I was bicycling around the park yesterday. It was a great day to be out. More shots from this little outing are in the park gallery: http://www.jerrybarton.eu/Landscapes/Danube-National-Park/8024413_Qn5S9#983074436_ixsmy I am totally flabbergasted by the number of comments on yesterday's picture - and the one from the day before. Thank you all. Great people all.
