Ring-Tailed Cardinalfish (Ostorhinchus aureus, O. fleurieu) of the Eastern Hemisphere

The Victoria and Alfred Waterfront applauds the two-oceans accord of the Indian and the Pacific Oceans.

That waterfront and therefore those oceans attest to the architectural beauty and the scientific attractiveness of the Two Oceans Aquarium.

One such scientific beauty, as a concomitantly body-architecture beauty, is the ring-tailed cardinalfish (

Religious Gardens

Thank you for your comments below in answer to my previous observation and question.

In a somewhat other, but still gardening-related direction, do east-side ponders determine watering schedules based primarily on plant appearances and rainfall amounts and frequencies or on soil-moisture levels?

Irish authors and their use of Irish mythology in their novels

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

Ker Place in Onancock, Accomack County, Eastern Shore Virginia

The computer crashed afore I communicated another component of my comment below.

The Ekeeks-Pory interaction emphasizes a hosting of that Jamestown official by that Accomack chief.

Northern White African Rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum cottoni): Captive Relicts, Wild Extinctions

For those asking about the place-name Laikipia in the second paragraph of the first, introductory subsection, the afore-appreciated noun arrives from the Maa language of the Maasai people.

The place-noun Laikipia configures in English as "treeless plain."

It derives from the traditional-Maa designation laikop for the high-altitude, open, savanna ambiance.
