Your appreciation, honors me, Daniele! Unfortunately, time does not allow me to visit many places....That is why I limited to my garden and the this lake (very small, in fact).

This is nice to know Doina, and a great illustration of one of the things Project Noah is about: that you can find so much biodiversity in you own backyard. You're also a superb photographer!
