[Exterior view. Neptune Fountain by Roland Hinton Perry. Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building, Washington, D.C.] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• Carol M.Highsmith said:

  This is Carol M. Highsmith. The Neptune Fountain is beautiful in the spring time when the water is turned on the the ducks come for a swim. This fountain is in front of the Thomas Jefferson Building. You can see I took this image in the spring because of the blooming Cherry tree in the distance in front of the Supreme Court.

• Pixel Wrangler said:

  If the current relocation site at the Capitol Reflecting Pool becomes too politically contentious for The Library of Congress's collection of twelve ducklings (plus 1), the Neptune Fountain may well be a safe harbor. [1]

White throated petrels

from Powerhouse Museum

• Steep Spark said:

  These look like Victorian taxidermical birds set in outdoor 'looking' scenes - note the neatly placed shells, made up ground setting, plus the wrinkle in paper on wall backdrop. Popular hobby to have exhibits of birds or small animals made to display under large glass domes in wealthy home library or museum collections. One can see a few in modern museums as well.

• Amy N said:

  Possibly Polynesian Storm-petrel (Nesofregetta fuliginosa)?

• Elma Ben said:

  arent those stuffed birds?

  Love, LOVE this photo...what a slice of life. The dog just makes it perfect.

• KölnMike said:

  I’m no Galway boffin, but I would say the Church of Ireland St. Nicholas is on the left, one would be looking in the direction of Shop Street? If so the street according to bing.com maps would be Churchyard Street?.

• Swordscookie said:

  Look at how crisp and clear the shot is for 1905? Beautiful! Like you NLI I noticed the terrier posing for the camera, he's nearly as camera conscious as the kids against the cart!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  KölnMike Thank you so much! Now added to Flickr map, plus here's the Google Street View... :)
