I was lucky to have good weather this morning and saw all kinds of nice little things, more than I can squeeze in a single blog post. As long as one has the eyes to look and the curiosity to keep the look for longer than a second, all kinds of findings start coming up. Dogs with jackets, weird graffiti, animals, plants and who knows what. Here’s a selection of photos.
Friends
These birds, a magpie and a rook flew together above me for quite awhile. I had the chance to see 3 of their landing sites and a couple of playfights.

The one in the back was braver and didn’t run as far as the ginger.

Mushrooms
Shaggy Mane (Порцеланова копринка) and some other kind of Coprinaceae (копринка) – two types of fungus that are related but not the same species, found in a place where the grass gets cut, and is sprayed against any undesired form of life. I’d guess this particular lawn has some kind of an issue, maybe water or rot, helping the mushrooms grow. Next to office buildings and a multi-million skyscraper construction site.


Blackberry
It’s red but who notices such things.

An important political message
The sign says: “No, darling, you’re sober as a little fluffy penguin”. I found it amusing.

The Antichrist
The sign says “Petar Danov – Antichrist”. Petar Danov’s philosophy is a christian-esoteric mysticism from the late 19th and early 20th century, one that has zodiac signs and people dressed in white who dance around lakes. What makes him an Antichrist is not clear but perhaps the people dancing around the 7 Rila Lakes in July and August are very dangerous.

I’ll have to remember the penguin line and use it at my next opportunity. 🤣

Thank you! I’m happy to share photos from my city. Some of the other aspects of my blog are currently in hiatus 🙂 Posts about books get almost no views and comments.

A tragedy, but books are one of those things like songs-what’s stimulating my imagination today might be only for my imagination today . . .

I feel like I write the book reviews for myself. I get maybe 0.3 likes per review on average on Goodreads

That sign uses the English word ‘Darling’ directly in cyrillic, doesn’t it? Is that in common use?

We do pick words from English and other languages and transliterate them like that but I’ve not seen this particular word elsewhere. English is richer in terms of endearment like ‘honey’, ‘sweetheart’. We have a few alternatives, like ‘milo’ (kind) but not the same variety and nuance in use. The way I understand ‘darling’ could sound patronizing, if used in the wrong context, which probably is the case here.
Maybe this was the author’s intent, to sound insulting.

The political message is a good one.
