Purple or pink???

What's your favorite color of...

Nymphaea colorata...

...the water lily that is native to tropical East Africa

and  is available in a violet-blue or in a less common pink varant.

Enjoy a great summer time, all y'all!

I'm taking a break to find great new photo subjects for you... ;-)

Pond gems...

...or:

red and white water lilies amidst "sounds of ribbit"

"sounds of ribbit"

European water frog - Pelophylax kl. esculentus - Teichfrosch

....ribbit, ribbit.

Try to keep cool and enjoy a great summer week!

Pool concert

Now they croak again: pool frogs [Pelophylax lessonae, syn.: Rana lessonae] in the local ponds,

trying to find a suitable partner.

As a decoration for their concert they've choosen some colourful water lilies.

White, yellow or purple, every single one of them is a real beauty!
