I found a guy who goes around the US asking 70 to 100-year-olds their:
• Biggest Regrets
• Biggest Lessons
• Advice to their younger self
Oddly enough, most of their answers are the same…
Here are my top 8:
La Gioconda with Netrebko, Kaufmann, and Tézier at San Carlo in Naples. Perhaps the best opera performance I’ve ever seen live. Amazing voices, amazing staging, wonderful music of Ponchielli, and poetically supreme libretto of my beloved Boito. What could be better?
This Buff-tailed bumblebee queen is brushing pollen grains out of her hair and collecting it in her pollen baskets. Can you spot the bright yellow bulges on her hind legs?💛
What spring flowers are your local bumblebees tucking into?🌷
🔊Sound up for a slowed-down skylark song.
Realmente orgulloso de esta nueva portada en @PlateaMagazine Entrevistar a Riccardo Muti es un sueño hecho realidad. Gracias a @ravennafestival y a @chicagosymphony por su complicidad. Aquí os dejo el texto íntegro de la conversación: https://t.co/RmBTSum2lb
April welcomes the return of the Big Eight 🎱🐝 #BumblebeesAreBack
This month, some queens will emerge from hibernation. Already active queens will produce their first daughters – the workers 💼
Have you spotted any bumblebees over the Easter weekend?
Your kindness can kill a bumblebee 💔
📢 Please share! Bumblebee queens are starting to emerge from hibernation. British weather isn’t always ideal and people with the best intentions can cause more harm good. Let’s change that.
