Pulsatilla vulgaris

...

Yesterday I've been able to verify Pulstilla vulgaris growing nearby the Linum I've found last year ...

When I woke up yesterday ...

... it took me some time to realize that I've overslept the whole day ...

... i arrived from canada on friday ... and I'm still not really awake ...

indian summer ...

having breakfast ...

getting dressed again ... just after swimming ...

here the tides can rise up to 14 m ...

and we've also been to the usa ...

No more undershirts in spectroscopy lectures again ...

...

I just read that Prof. Mikenda has died. And he wasn't even really old.

Now it's the end of summer ...

... and I'm back in vienna again.

Tomorrow'll be september ... thus I'm quite sure that it'll become very cold and rainy in the next few days ...

Today I arrived from my last excursion this year. We've spent a wonderful week climbing up to mountains and looking for plants in tyrol.

End of june I've been to 'elsaß' and in july I've also been somewhere in the alps and in italy.

And in october I'll be traveling to canada.

Linum perenne s. strictiss.

maybe some kind of undead plant ...

Now I'm quite shure that I've found linum parenne s. strictiss. ... according to the austrian exkursionsflora it should be extinct in upper austria ...

Today ...

... i went to orth/donau by bike.

This afternoon I took my bike an traveled to orth an der donau (about 20-30 km east of vienna ...). There I met a landschaftsmahler:

everything ...

...

... is changing now.

Kochholz

...

On friday me and dtr made a field trip to the Dunkelsteinerwald. We parked our car in a village called Kochholz (it is situated next to Kicking ...). Besides a petrol station (2 out of 4 petrol pumps have been for two-stroke engines only ...), a highland cattle farm, a suspicious house (it should be a hotel ... but we're sure that's just a camouflage for a country house for child(eating?) monks ...) and a castle ...
