Our beautiful star breaks through the grey,
As shadows of the clouds drift by,
Birds take flight across the bay,
Beneath a vast and shoreless sky.

A male stonechat with a black head, white neck patch, and warm orange chest perches upright on a curved stem of bright yellow rapeseed flowers. It stands above a dense, softly blurred field of matching yellow blooms, creating a glowing golden backdrop. The bird faces slightly to the right, sharply in focus against the hazy sea of colour.

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Petals&Perches any bird with flowers in capture. The alt is #WhatTheFlock any capture of three or more of the same bird. Good luck. #birds #photography #ECK

EU’s energy crisis response is broader than expected: remote work mandates, heat pump subsidies, EV leasing schemes — plus electrification targets and new laws to tax electricity below fossil fuels.

Wenn die Linken innerhalb der #SPD sich nicht langsam besser organisieren und lauter aufmucken, wird diese Partei bald in der Einstelligkeit landen. Und von dort aus ist es kein weiter Weg mehr zur endgültigen Bedeutungslosigkeit.
