House sparrows (Passer domesticus). Photo taken at Lindevej in Svaneke, a town on the eastern coast of the Baltic island of Bornholm, November 22, 2024.
A sad sight. When people move out , the disrepair moves in. This is a commen sight in many desolated places in Norway.
House Finches, particularly males, can look very different from one to another. This is largely due to differences in their diet rather than regional differences.
Even though all of eastern North America’s House Finches are descended from the same few birds released on Long Island (meaning they’re much more closely related to each other than they are to birds across the West), there aren’t any strong differences in size, shape, or color between the two regions.
When we were on our Thanksgiving Ramble, I happened to notice this abandoned house out of the corner of my eye. As you can see in the Comments addition, it was barely visible from the road. Anyway, I stopped to photograph it. It's a good thing that I had my wide angle lens because I didn't have a lot of room to work with. I took this with a 16mm focal length.

You find this kind of houses all over the "Harz"area in Germany.This house was too close to the road ( a sort of motorway) but it was breathtaking.
We viewed 8 houses like this one and now we have to think about pro's and con's of each one of them.
Monterey, Ca
This house was just off of the famous 17 Mile Drive right by the Monterey Peninsula Country Club. My guess is that it predated virtually all of the developement that occurred in the late 20th century. I'm sure there is a fascinating history that I would love to know.
Using Google Lens, I was able to find that it is called "Casita de Lemos."
I originally titled this "abandoned" because when I took this image it was abandoned. I remember walking around the propery and peering into the windows.
This is a model of the Camp Dick House, a supposedly haunted house near the town where I live, and right next door to the house where I work (which is where I found this). The tale is that a girl died who lived in the bottom right room, and they closed up the shutters. If you see the shutters open, you're going to die. At least, that's how I've heard it.

Even the 'back door' entrance of Nell Gwynn House, located on Draycott Avenue in the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, isn't exactly shabby.
This splendid art-deco building was designed in the 1930s by architect G. Kay Green as a glamorous central London home for those who travelled or lived outside the capital. It contains a number of apartments of varying sizes, some of which are available for short-term lets - at a price.
The front of the building on Sloane Avenue is sumptuously presented but a little overstated for my taste - the less ostentatious rear entrance, for me, is rather more in tune with the overall elegance of the building. It would seem I know my place in life's pecking order......
