"Frumusetea locului"- văzută ca splendoare ...
sau la modul natural ...
ca o zi însorită sau un apus de soare calm în orice culoare, la care vă puteți gândi ...
"Frumusețea este în ochii privitorului" ...
"Frumusețea este în ochii privitorului" ...
"Local beauty" seen as a splendor...
or as natural...
as a sunny day or a calm sunset in any color at you can think of...

"Meaning":
"Literal meaning - the perception of beauty is subjective."
"Origin":
"This saying first appeared in the 3rd century BC in Greek. It didn't appear in its current form in print until the 19th century, but in the meantime there were various written forms that expressed much the same thought. (...) The person who is widely credited with coining the saying in its current form is Margaret Wolfe Hungerford (née Hamilton), who wrote many books, often under the pseudonym of 'The Duchess'. In Molly Bawn, 1878, there's the line "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.""Beauty"
"What is beauty? Ask every soul -
beauty is every overflow, every glow, every overfilling and every great poverty;
beauty is to be faithful to the summer and to go naked until the autumn;
beauty is the plumage of the parrot or the sunset that bodes storms;
beauty is a sharp feature and an accent of one’s own: it is I,
beauty is a great loss and a silent funeral procession,
beauty is the fan’s light beat that wakes the breeze of destiny:
beauty is to be as voluptuous as the rose
or to forgive everything because the sun is shining;
beauty is the cross the monk chose or the necklace the lady has from her lover,
beauty is not the thin sauce in which poets serve themselves,
beauty is to wage war and seek happiness,
beauty is to serve higher powers."

"The Waiting Soul"
from vol. "Poems" (1916), by Edith Södergran
"I am alone amidst the trees at the lake’s edge,
I live in friendship with the shore’s old firs
and in secret understanding with all the young rowans.
Alone I lie and wait,
I have seen no one walk by.
Great flowers look down on me from tall stems, bitter creepers climb in my embrace,
I have a single name for everything, and that is love."
"Rața este numele atribuit unei varietăți de specii din familia Anatidae. Sunt păsări de apă, mai mici decât rudele lor, lebedele și gâștele și pot fi găsite atât în apa dulce cât și în cea sărată."
"Duck is the common name for a large number of species in the Anatidae family of birds, which also includes swans and geese. The ducks are divided among several subfamilies in the Anatidae family; they do not represent a monophyletic group (the group of all descendants of a single common ancestral species) but a form taxon, since swans and geese are not considered ducks. Ducks are mostly aquatic birds, mostly smaller than the swans and geese, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water."
The male birds (drakes) have a glossy green head and are grey on wings and belly, while the females have mainly brown-speckled plumage. Mallards live in wetlands, eat water plants and small animals, and are gregarious. This species is the ancestor of most breeds of domestic ducks."

"Pescărușii sunt păsări acvatice care trăiesc pe coasta mărilor, ele făcând parte din familia Laridae, ordinul Charadriiformes. După unii autori aici sunt încadrații și pescărușii răpitori (Stercorariidae), rândunica de mare (Sternidae), forfecarii (Rhynchopidae) ca și pinguinii (Alcidae). Familia Laridae cuprinde 6 genuri cu 55 de specii."
"The Common Gull (European and Asian subspecies; see below) or Mew Gull (North American subspecies) Larus canus is a medium-sized gull which breeds in northern Asia, northern Europe and northwestern North America. It migrates further south in winter. Its name does not indicate that it is an abundant species, but that during the winter it feeds on common land, short pasture used for grazing."
"Turtles are reptiles of the order Chelonii or Testudines characterised by a special bony or cartilaginous shell developed from their ribs and acting as a shield. (...) Turtles are ectotherms—their internal temperature varies according to the ambient environment, commonly called cold-blooded. However, because of their high metabolic rate, leatherback sea turtles have a body temperature that is noticeably higher than that of the surrounding water..."
"Broasca-țestoasă este o reptilă din ordinul Testudines." (...)
Este adaptată la mediul terestru. În România, trăiește în pădurile și regiunile de stepă din Oltenia, Banat și Dobrogea.
Țestoasa de uscat se recunoaște după corpul ei scurt, acoperit cu un țest format din 2 părți:
- carapacea (la partea superioară, bombată, de culoare maroniu-roșcat)
- plastronul (la partea inferioară, de culoare deschisă)"..
