fearless sparrow and a bread crust
Hi to all birdie watchers and feather lovers! My post goes off the SMAP challenge. Round #39 suggested the prompt 'Flock' ... and it happened that I have to skip it too.
But I can please you with some lovely sparrow photos I captured just two days ago, when I followed my baby to her classes. New photos are always the fave ones, right?
Here is the story behind the scenes of this photo set - its trivia, nothing sensational! as simple as two cents. I followed my daughter to school and on the way back I stood at the tram stop, waiting for the tram. Here I noticed that several sparrows (a small flock) were having fun with bread crusts. I had my camera with me, but didn't borrowed my 300mm telephoto lens, which I usually use for birdwatching. But I did have a 150mm macro lens, which is great for mushrooms and flowers. And when I got closer... ofc the sparrows flew away, except for one. One sparrow fiddled with bread so sweetly that I decided to try ... 150mm is certainly worse than 300mm - but better than nothing..
Вот вам история появления этого фотосета, простая как две копейки. Я проводил в школу дочку и стоял на остановке ожидая трамвая, и тут я заметил как несколько воробьев развлекаются с хлебными корками. У меня была камера, но не было 300мм телевика, годного для охоты на птиц, зато был 150мм телевик, который у меня для грибов, цветков и стрит-фото. Стоило мне подойти поближе, как воробьи конечно разлетелись прочь - все кроме одного. Один воробей так умильно возился с хлебом, что я решил попробовать... 150мм конечно хуже 300мм, но лучше чем ничего.
I got very close to the said bread crust - like 2-3 steps - and most of the sparrows of course flew away. But! one of them - either the most hungry or the most fearless - soon returned and continued the process of "gathering".
Я приблизился к хлебной корке на очень близкую дистанцию - 3 шага, и большинство воробьев конечно улетели. Но! один из них - либо самый голодный, либо самый бесстрашный - вскоре вернулся, и продолжил процесс "собирательства".

I want to ask something of topic thoug. I really like the format of your post. The two languages are separated and easy to read, but nice and clean. I've been using the columns but I just don't like the gray background and black borders which are in the post option. Today I've been searching on Hive and on Internet HTML formating of tables. I found very good advices but still cannot figure out how to make like your columns. Without the background and borders. Is there some tutorial on Hive on this subject? I would really appreciate your advice
yes, I can help you. it is very easy and no TABLES involved, but DIVs.
< div class="pull-left">< p>
EN
< /p>< /div>< div class="pull-right">< p>
RU
< /p>< /div>
--------- ( a ruler here, to separate from next DIV block )
you may combine bilingua it in two ways
1 - divide each EN + RU block with a ruler, or
2 - put a lot of P blocks inside left column, and put a lot of P blocks into the right column.
you also can add images (insert direct links, without any code)
and apply text decorations using < b> < /b> and < sub> < /sub>
hope this was helpful.
😻 Thank youuuu so much, it does help, a lot. I've been searching all day how to do it. Спасибо 🙏🙏🙏
