I'm not seeing the second, smaller quake on the live INGV seismic trace either, maybe it shut that down too.
Degassing looks to have increased on the cameras.

Happenings and rumblings underneath Etna this morning ๐๐
Yes, earthquake on the south flank and a big increase in volcanic tremor. Interesting!

Beach treasure. Half a green toy soldier.
Come sit on the beach with me, let me show you my treasures ๐ฅฐ
An empty beach with turquoise sea and bright blue sky
Sunny bruschetta
Sunny cheap lunch and a couple of hours on a deserted beach finding shells and cool rocks <3
'ow many killins?
A wooden 'cat shed' surrounded by ducks.
A few years ago the local councils installed these stray cat shelters. A team of volunteer feeders make sure they're always stocked with clean water and cat biscuits.
It's going really well.
Wild fennel flower growing from a rubble wall, green fields and the sea behind. Comino and Malta in the distance, under a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds.
It's positively EXPLODING with springyness out there today โค๏ธ

Day 9.
White pigeon on a limestone wall, blue sky behind.
WHERE IS MY FUCKING CORN?!?!?
Pigeon rehabilitation day 8.
The injured pigeon sat on top of a limestone wall.
Pigeon rehabilitation day 5. I still can't catch it.
It always sleeps on top of the wall but is able to walk along the wall now, albeit limpy. It can fly short distances to the buildings opposite but keeps coming back to this spot.
Cracked corn and chicken pellets for breakfast today. ๐๏ธ
Four people in carnival costume, two are bodyguards, the others are Donald and Melania Trump with a barrel of Venezuelan Oil.
Carnival in Gozo is often political, satirical and dark.
Lovely example from last night.

Cartoon. Person says to other person โWe invented a robot that answers questions.โ, adding, โwe just have to feed it 10 baby giraffes a dayโ. The other person asks โBut it answers the questions correctly?โ Person responds โOh my goodness, no. No no no no no.โ By Aram J. French Appropriated due to missing alt text
HA! I'd forgotten how funny this was ,magnificent!
It had corn and peas for breakfast today ๐
We've had an injured pigeon on top of our yard wall for the last two days. It arrived in the windy weather. No rings on its legs. The wall is too tall for me to reach up and catch it, and when I try it panics and moves further away.
I'll keep feeding it and giving it water. I hope it recovers ๐
A carnival float depicting Bob Marley, showing peace signs with both hands. The parish church of Nadur, Gozo in the background.
Nadur, Gozo, 2022.
The craftsmanship and time that goes into creating these floats is INSANE! โ๏ธ๐ฅฐ
Two brightly coloured carnival floats with a backdrop of slightly shabby looking buildings. One float is the head of Bob Marley with his hands either side, showing peace signs. The other is a Chinese-dragon style head.
It's Carnival time on Gozo! โ๏ธ
A large hand of bananas, still hanging from a tree. All the bananas are unripe and green, except one yellow one.
This banana has a magical side quest for you!
Oh no don't say that! ๐ฌ
Agree. The farmers I speak to tell me this how winters used to be. It's those evil hot days in summer I hate, so I'm not going to complain! :)
No construction allowed on a public holiday my arse.
The glory of the morning!
Me too, I feel very lucky ๐ฅฐ
Early morning photo with green fields leading downhill to the sea. Comino and Malta visible in the distance.
