Song Thrush Singing - Ambience Sounds
The Song Thrush is a species of thrush found in Europe, Asia and northwestern Africa. It is known for its beautiful flute-like song and is often heard singing in gardens, parks, and open woodlands.
The Song Thrush is a medium-sized bird, with a distinctive spotted chest and a brown back. It feeds on a variety of insects, snails, and other small invertebrates, which it finds by turning over leaves and stones on the ground. In the winter, it also eats berries and fruits.
These birds are migratory, with some populations moving south for the winter. In the breeding season, the Song Thrush builds a nest of twigs, grasses, and mud, often in a tree or shrub, and lays 4-5 blue-green eggs. The female incubates the eggs for around two weeks, and both parents help care for the young birds.
Overall, the Song Thrush is a common and well-known bird, and its beautiful song makes it a favorite among birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts.

Lest We Forget
Remembrance Day (also known as Poppy Day owing to the tradition of wearing a remembrance poppy) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states since the end of the First World War to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919, the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries. In most countries, Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of First World War hostilities. Hostilities formally ended "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" of 1918, in accordance with the armistice signed by representatives of Germany and the Entente between 5:12 and 5:20 that morning. ("At the 11th hour" refers to the passing of the 11th hour, or 11:00 am.) The First World War officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on 28 June 1919.

Leith Hill Tower and Countryside / Surrey Hills (4k quality)
On the summit of Leith Hill is an 18th-century Gothic tower. In 1764–65 Richard Hull of nearby Leith Hill Place built "Prospect House", later to become known as Leith Hill Tower, with the intention of raising the hill above 1,000 ft (305 m) above sea level. A tower built contemporaneously at the summit of Bredon Hill achieves a similar purpose.
Leith Hill Tower is 19.5 metres (64 ft) high and consisted of two rooms "neatly furnished", with a Latin inscription above the door announcing that it had been built not only for his own pleasure, but also for the enjoyment of others. Hull provided visitors with prospect glasses, similar to a small telescope, through which to survey the extensive views towards London and the English Channel, each some 25 miles (40 km) away.
When Hull died in 1772, at his request he was buried under the tower. Following his death, the building was stripped of its contents, doors and windows, and fell into ruin. As a result, the tower was filled with rubble and concrete, and the entrance bricked up.
In 1864, William John Evelyn of nearby Wotton House decided to reopen it, but the concrete made this difficult, and so the additional turreted side-tower was added to allow access to the top of the tower.
At the top of the tower there is a viewpoint indicator to commemorate Walker Miles, whose work in the early days of the Rambler's movement contributed to the formation of The Ramblers of Great Britain. It has been claimed that on a clear day, 13 counties can be seen from the top of Leith Hill Tower.
The tower was fully restored by the National Trust in 1984. This restoration included the removal of rubble and concrete, fitting safety features such as a handrail in the narrow staircase, and converting the lower portion of the tower into a servery. Following restoration, the mobile phone operator Cellnet installed a first-generation transmitter station (Base site) into one of the tower rooms, feeding single vertical antennas on the tower roof dressed to look like flag poles. Leith Hill Tower is open to the public every day from 10:00 am until 3:00 pm on weekdays and 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on weekends, every day of the year except Christmas Day, with a comprehensive display explaining the history of the tower.

No cume do Monte Leith está uma torre gótica do século 18. Em 1764-65, Richard Hull, da vizinha Leith Hill Place, construiu a "Prospect House", mais tarde conhecida como Leith Hill Tower, com a intenção de elevar a colina acima de 1.000 pés (305 m) acima do nível do mar. Uma torre construída contemporaneamente no cume de Bredon Hill atinge um propósito semelhante.
Leith Hill Tower tem 19,5 metros (64 pés) de altura e consistia em dois quartos "bem mobilados", com uma inscrição em latim acima da porta anunciando que tinha sido construída não apenas para seu próprio prazer, mas também para o desfrute dos outros. Hull forneceu aos visitantes óculos de prospecção, semelhantes a um pequeno telescópio , através do qual eles puderam examinar as amplas vistas de Londres e do Canal da Mancha , cada um a cerca de 25 milhas (40 km) de distância.
Quando Hull morreu em 1772, a seu pedido, foi enterrado sob a torre. Após sua morte, o edifício foi despojado de seu conteúdo, portas e janelas, e caiu em ruínas. Como resultado, a torre foi preenchida com entulho e concreto, e a entrada fechada com tijolos.
Em 1864, William John Evelyn, da vizinha Wotton House, decidiu reabri-la, mas o concreto tornou isso difícil e, portanto, a torre lateral adicional com torres foi adicionada para permitir o acesso ao topo da torre.
No topo da torre há um indicador de ponto de vista para comemorar Walker Miles , cujo trabalho nos primeiros dias do movimento Rambler contribuiu para a formação dos Ramblers da Grã-Bretanha. Foi afirmado que em um dia claro, 13 condados podem ser vistos do topo da Leith Hill Tower.
A torre foi totalmente restaurada pelo National Trust em 1984. Essa restauração incluiu a remoção de entulho e concreto, encaixando recursos de segurança como um corrimão na escada estreita e convertendo a parte inferior da torre em um servidor. Após a restauração, a operadora de telefonia móvel Cellnet instalou uma estação transmissora de primeira geração (Base site) em uma das salas da torre, alimentando antenas verticais únicas no telhado da torre vestidas para se parecerem com mastros de bandeira. Leith Hill Tower está aberto ao público todos os dias das 10h00 às 15h00 durante a semana e das 9h00 às 17h00 nos fins de semana, todos os dias do ano, exceto no dia de Natal , com um display abrangente explicando o história da torre.

Russian Blue Cats 101 : Fun Facts & Myths
In today's video, we are going to talk about some interesting facts and myths about the Russian Blue Cat.
The Russian Blue’s elegant yet muscular body led one cat judge to proclaim him the “Doberman Pinscher of cats.”
Here are some of the interesting facts about the Russian Blue Cat, which will give you some further insight into its characteristics and temperament.
1. Russian Blue’s Origin.
The Russian Blue’s ancestral roots are lost in time. Some people speculate that they’re descended from the pet cats of Russian czars, but there’s probably more truth to the claim that the breed originated in northwest Russia. According to legend, the gray kitties lived in the wilderness and were prized, and sadly hunted for their dense, warm fur. Today, it’s said that gray cats resembling the Russian Blue still live in the country's coldest regions.
It’s believed that sailors brought the Russian from the port city of Arkhangelsk, which sits on the Northern Dvina River in the northwestern part of the country, to Great Britain and Northern Europe in 18 60. The city was one of the most important ports in the Russian Empire. Its name means Archangel in English, which may explain why the Russian Blue was once known as the Archangel Blue.
2. Russian Blue’s Personality.
The Russian Blue has a reputation as a gentle, quiet cat, somewhat shy, but don’t get the wrong idea. This cat may have a reserved nature, but he loves to play being especially fond of retrieving, and enjoys jumping or climbing to high places, where he can study people and situations at his leisure, before making up his mind about whether he wants to get involved. Guests will not receive his immediate attention and may never see him unless he decides they are worthy of his notice, but toward family members, especially his favored person, he is ever loyal, following them through the house and even riding on a shoulder.
The Russian Blue is a sensitive cat who doesn’t like to be ignored and will be hurt if he doesn’t receive the same amount of affection he gives. Lack of attention can cause him to become anxious or fearful. While the Russian Blue loves your company, he is capable of entertaining himself during the day while you are at work. Unlike some active, intelligent breeds, he is not destructive but moves through the house with the lithe grace of a Russian ballerina. When you are at home, his subtle sense of humor and manual dexterity will never fail to entertain. Just make sure you laugh with him, not at him. He has a strong sense of self-worth and doesn’t like being made fun of.
This is a cat who does best in a quiet, stable environment. He doesn’t like change, and it’s especially important to him that meals arrive on time. Count on him to be a faithful alarm clock in the morning, not so you don’t miss work but so he doesn’t miss a meal. If you take the time to develop a relationship with a Russian Blue, your reward will be a deep bond with this loving cat.
3. Russian Blue’s Physical Characteristics.
The Russian Blue’s elegant yet muscular body led one cat judge to proclaim him the “Doberman Pinscher of cats.” He has what’s called a semi-foreign body type, meaning it is moderate in shape, falling somewhere between the short, compact body of breeds such as Persians and the sleek angles of Oriental breeds such as the Siamese. The broad wedge of the head and its flat skull are often described as cobra-like, although that is much too dangerous a description for this sweet-natured cat. Regal is perhaps a better term.
A long, slender neck segues into high shoulder blades and a fine-boned body that is firm and muscular, covered with a short, thick double coat with a plush texture, often described as similar to that of a seal or beaver. If you were to run your fingers through a Russian Blue’s coat, the patterns they made would remain until they were petted smooth. The body is supported by long, fine-boned legs set on small, slightly rounded paws with pads that are a pinky lavender or mauve shade. The tail is long but in proportion to the body.

Khao Manee Cats 101 : Fun Facts & Myths
In today's video, we are going to talk about some interesting facts and myths, about the Khao Manee Cat.
The Khao Manee is a natural cat breed, which means they developed without the need for human intervention. These felines are known for being energetic, smart, and sociable.
You can find Khao Manees in shelters and breed specific rescues, so remember to always adopt! Don’t shop if you’re looking to add one of these cats to your home!
The Khao Manee has regal roots, originally being kept by royal families in Thailand many centuries ago. In fact, the breed appears in a classic book of cat poetry from the 14th Century called the Tamra Maew.
The breed's name translates into English as "White Gem." It's said that the Khao Manee was kept native to Thailand until 1999, when a breeder named Colleen Freymuth decided to bring the cat to the United States of America.
These days, you can find Khao Manees in shelters or in the care of rescue groups. So make sure to consider adoption if you decide that this is the breed for you!
Here are some interesting facts about Khao Manee.
1. The Khao Manee's Size.
The Khao Manee is a small- to medium-sized cat. As is always the case, exact size standards might vary.
Most Khao Manees weigh in at eight to ten pounds. They're usually ten to twelve inches in length when fully grown.
2. The Khao Manee's Personality.
When it comes to the Khao Manee's personality, you'll instantly realize that this is one super playful and curious cat! This breed will happily play fetch games and never think twice about exploring every nook and cranny of an environment. So make sure you have at least one cat tree installed for the kitty and preferably lots of safe furniture that can be scaled.
The breed bonds well with children and other small pets, and will quickly become your kids' best new playmate. Adding on to the Khao Manee's playful side, this is a sociable cat who always wants to be at the center of any action going on. If your home is empty for large parts of the day, the cat could suffer from loneliness.
In fact, Khao Manee's have also become known for being very talkative and verbal kitties. So be prepared for many back and forth conversations with your new feline friend!
3. The Khao Manee's Health.
Khao Manees are generally considered to be healthy cats, but always schedule regular wellness visits with your cat's vet.
One breed-specific health problem that's associated with the Khao Manee is potential deafness. This is actually something that any cat with the combination of a white coat and blue eyes might suffer from.
4. Taking Care of your Khao Manee.
As with all cats, it's important to keep up your Khao Manee's regular veterinary checkups to detect any health concerns early. Your vet can help you develop a care routine that will keep your cat healthy.
Beyond scheduling yearly wellness visits with your vet, make sure that you pick up a scratching post for your Khao Manee's living environment. This can help promote healthy scratching and keep the cat's nails in good condition.
The Khao Manee's ears should also be examined regularly for signs of dirt building up or possible infection. It's also vital to check the cat's skin regularly, especially around the ears, as white cats are often more prone to developing skin cancer.
Talk to your vet about starting a regular teeth brushing regimen that will suit your Khao Manee. Your vet can advise you about specific brands and techniques.
5. The Khao Manee's Coat Color.
The Khao Manee is a white cat. The breed's plain white coat also has the effect of making their eyes stand out and sparkle.
In terms of climate, the Khao Manee generally prefers to be around warmer temperatures rather than cold ones. Although you should always make sure that there's enough shade and fresh water available during the hotter months.

Ragamuffin Cats 101 : Fun Facts & Myths
In today's video, we are going to talk about some interesting facts and myths, about the Ragamuffin Cat.
A generally calm cat, the Ragamuffin is an ideal companion for those living in apartments, and the breed adapts well to changes in routine.
The Ragamuffin is a large, long-bodied cat. She is heavily boned with a long tail and a plush coat. The Ragamuffin appears even bigger than she is.
The Ragamuffin has a medium-sized head but her fur makes her face appear bigger. The ears are also medium sized, and are set on the sides of the head to continue the triangular look of the face. The legs are long and strong. The chin should be well developed and the oval eyes should be blue.
The Ragamuffin comes in various colors and patterns. Some of these color patterns are the same as those of the ragdoll. The Ragamuffin with a color point pattern has a light body color with contrasting, darker, color on the extremities, mask and ears. The Bicolor Ragamuffin also exhibits dark points, but will show an inverted V on the forehead with the stomach, all four legs and the ruff being white.
The Mitted Ragamuffin also shows points, but in this color pattern, the feet are white, as is the chin. In addition to these classic ragdoll color patterns, the Ragamuffin has various other colors and patterns.
Here are some interesting facts about Ragamuffin Cats that will make you admire them even more!
1. Ragamuffin Cats are Crossbreed Cats.
If you’re a true feline lover, you have almost certainly heard about or seen sweet soft-furred Ragdoll cats, known for their amicability. Well, Ragamuffin cats are descendants of Ragdoll cats. With fluffy fur and striking blue eyes, they make onlookers gaze in awe. When Ragdolls are bred with Persian or Himalayan cats, the result is a Ragamuffin.
Ragamuffins are a fairly new breed of cat that came into existence, only two decades ago on account of cross-breeding. Ragamuffins retain the Ragdolls’ innocuous, but sweet personality. However, one of the notable features where they differ from their ancestors is in the eyes. Ragamuffins don’t have those sharp blue catchy eyes. The good thing is that their fur is extremely soft and feels almost like rabbit fur.
2. ‘Ragamuffin’ Wasn’t the First Name Choice.
Ragamuffin sounds like such an adorable name for this lovely feline, but interestingly enough, the original name proposed for this breed of cat was ‘Liebling’. Liebling is a German word, whose English equivalent would be ‘darling’ or ‘sweetheart.’ Some of you might be curious how the cat got its actual name ‘Ragamuffin’? Well, the name Ragamuffin was selected after a broad discussion amongst the cat-breeding community, in order to retain a link from the new breed to the foundation breed, the Ragdoll. Even so, in some parts of the US, like Northern Virginia, Ragamuffins are still called Lieblings.
3. Ragamuffins Love to be Held.
Ragamuffin cats are unusually relaxed about being held, and love to curl up on their humans for some quality cuddling. You can scoop up a Ragamuffin and hold them like a baby, although of course double check with the owner if it’s not your cat; not all cats are as docile as each other. Because of their love of human interaction, they can become depressed and withdrawn if left alone for hours every day, so consider your routine if you’re thinking about becoming a Ragamuffin owner.
4. Ragamuffins Love Toys.
Ragamuffins are so much like a young toddler, and love to play around with toys. Ask any Ragamuffin expert and she cannot agree more over this. Catnip cigars and bird teasers happen to be two of the most popular toys for Ragamuffin cats. Put such toys around them and you will get a hefty dose of the cat’s playfulness and curiosity. Ragamuffins are very intrigued with battery-operated toys too. The movement of these electronic toys incites the cat’s curiosity, especially if they look anything like a mouse.

Penshaw Monument Drone Footage
Penshaw Monument is a memorial in the style of an ancient Greek temple on Penshaw Hill in the City of Sunderland, North East England. It is near the village of Penshaw, between the towns of Washington and Houghton-le-Spring in the historic County Durham. The monument was built between 1844 and 1845 to commemorate John Lambton, 1st Earl of Durham (1792–1840), Governor-General of British North America and author of the Durham Report on the future governance of the American territories. Owned by the National Trust since 1939, it is a Grade I listed building under the name of the Earl of Durham's Monument.
The monument was designed by John and Benjamin Green and built by Thomas Pratt of Bishopwearmouth using local gritstone at a cost of around £6000; the money was raised by subscription. On 28 August 1844, while it was partially complete, its foundation stone was laid by Thomas Dundas, 2nd Earl of Zetland in a Masonic ceremony which drew tens of thousands of spectators. Based on the Temple of Hephaestus in Athens, it is a tetrastyle temple of the Doric order, with eighteen columns—seven along its longer sides and four along its shorter ones—and no roof or cella (inner chamber).
One column contains a spiral staircase leading to a parapeted walkway along the entablature. This staircase was closed to the public in 1926 after a 15-year-old boy fell to his death from the top of the monument. The structure fell into disrepair in the 1930s and was fenced off, then repaired in 1939. It has since undergone further restoration, including extensive work in 1979 during which its western side was dismantled. Floodlit at night since 1988, it is often illuminated in different colours to mark special occasions. The National Trust began to offer supervised tours of the walkway in 2011.
Penshaw Monument is a local landmark, visible from up to 80 kilometres (50 mi) away. It appears on the crest of Sunderland A.F.C. and is viewed nationally as a symbol of the North East. It has been praised for the grandeur, simplicity and symbolic significance of its design, especially when seen from a distance. However, critics have said it is poorly constructed and lacks purpose; nineteenth-century architectural journals condemned its lack of a roof and the hollowness of its columns and walls. It features no depiction of the man it honours, and has been widely described as a folly.
