Whilst I might love it if you did, you don’t need to share daily in October. You can post all 31 in one go at the end of the month, join us weekly or even pop in occasionally with your squares. The frequency of your posts depends on you and your blog. The theme is kind, which means kinda anything goes this month.
Today I have gone for the enormous kind, also known as the Eurasian black vulture or Cinereous Vulture, the largest ‘Old World’ vulture. You may wish to go for some other kinds, such as;
- Something of the kind (similar to something or even a carbon copy)
- Our imagination kindled (inspire us!)
- Of its kind (a unique object or an example of something such as a flower or bird)
- Two of a Kind (or one, or three or multiple!)
- Kindred spirits (kindness in action or photographs of people)
- Take kindly to (something you like)
I know last week there were a few shocks for those of you still using classic editor because of the automatic transfer to block editor. I am in awe you kept going during the transition. You are amazing, and in a few weeks (well maybe six) you will probably begin to like block! To help you on your way here’s the link to the block editor guide I shared back in May.
Oh, I love vultures. We saw magnificent specimens both in Spain and near our home in France. I’ve gone with the natural world too. And used, thanks to help from Debbie and Sue, Block Editor. Can you see any difference? No, thought not. Though in the end I had to resort to Classic after first publication because my photo was ridiculously large and I couldn’t find any way of re-sizing it in ****** blocks. Hope you’re feeling somewhat better! xx

Yes the size changes of photos isn’t easy to find, but can talk you through it if you want later as I am feeling much better. Hips still problematic but nothing like yesterday so no need to space myself out on pain killers 🙂

Thanks Becky! As it’s supposed to rain all afternoon, I’m going to sit down and really try to get my head round it. I have a large collection of tutorials saved up – including yours – so I should be ready for my B Sc. by the end of the day.

Bursas are the little sacs of liquid on our hips, knees and basically wherever we have joints. They provide a cushion. Unfortunately they can get inflamed, and that is called bursitis. I seem to have a chronic condition. Most of the year I hardly notice it as I have learnt to moderate how I lie, sit etc . . . but last year they were horrendous for about 3 weeks and unfortunately this year the same is happening 😦

Is it hereditary? Or affected by weather conditions? Poor you! 😦

We think mine began because of a repetitive strain injury, and then being me I somehow convinced the other hip to develop it too!!

It was an amazing few minutes, we were on a road with very few stopping places and I had noticed that one of the storks looked bigger than the rest. Somehow MrB found a place to stop, and I managed to get the shot!

Impressive bird. You have to start worrying if there is more than one and they start circling, though. … Soaring, circling, surfing – the best I can do for a transition to my square today: https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2020/10/04/surfs-up/

Big bird! There’s a place we use to go that was at the top of a hill where the vultures ride the thermals all day. Quite peaceful to watch. Thanks for the memory

I always think this kind of vulture looks almost robotic with their wing-shape, Becky. It’s kind of like a very starched scarf glued onto a body! Hehehe! 😀
