Alle is first mentioned in 1136 as Alla. The municipality was formerly known by its German name Hall, however, that name is no longer used.
Geography
Alle has an area of 10.6km2 (4.09sqmi). Of this area, 6.81km2 (2.63sqmi) or 64.2% is used for agricultural purposes, while 2.36km2 (0.91sqmi) or 22.3% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 1.37km2 (0.53sqmi) or 12.9% is settled (buildings or roads), 0.08km2 (20 acres) or 0.8% is either rivers or lakes and 0.01km2 (2.5 acres) or 0.1% is unproductive land.
Of the built up area, industrial buildings made up 1.1% of the total area while housing and buildings made up 6.8% and transportation infrastructure made up 4.3%. Out of the forested land, 21.0% of the total land area is heavily forested and 1.2% is covered with orchards or small clusters of trees. Of the agricultural land, 50.0% is used for growing crops and 13.6% is pastures. All the water in the municipality is flowing water.
This is the only Atlantic auk of its size, half the size of the Atlantic puffin at 19–21cm in length, with a 34–38cm wingspan. Adult birds are black on the head, neck, back and wings, with white underparts. The bill is very short and stubby. They have a small rounded black tail. The lower face and fore neck become white in winter.
The flight is direct, with fast whirring wing beats due to the short wings. These birds forage for food like other auks by swimming underwater. They mainly eat crustaceans, especially copepods, but also other small invertebrates along with small fish. They collect in large swarms before leaving their breeding rocks to head out to sea for food as well as when they return.
A capo (/ˈkeɪ.poʊ/ or /ˈkæ.poʊ/; short for capo d'astro, capo tasto or capotasto[kapoˈtasto], Italian for "head of fretboard"; Spanish, capodastro[ka.po'ðas.tɾo]) is a device used on the neck of a stringed (typically fretted) instrument to shorten the playable length of the strings, hence raising the pitch. It is frequently used on guitars, mandolins, and banjos. The word derives from the Italian "capotasto" which means the "nut" of a stringed instrument. The earliest known use of the term "capotasto" is by Giovanni Battista Doni who, in his Annotazioni of 1640, uses it to describe the nut of a viola da gamba. The first patented capo was designed by James Ashborn of Wolcottville, Connecticut, USA.
Musicians commonly use a capo to raise the pitch of a fretted instrument so they can play in a different key using the same fingerings as playing open (i.e., without a capo). In effect, a capo uses a fret of an instrument to create a new nut at a higher note than the instrument's actual nut.
The New York Times called the album chaotic, but often successful in spite of itself. They called his rhymes nimble but cluttered and said he is out-rapped by almost all of his guests here, including Game on "Carton of Milk" and Lloyd Banks on "Take a Bow". They also stated his standout tracks are the lead single, "Perfect Day" and the Wiz Khalifa-esque "Heart Attack" stating that he is so at ease, so comfortable on those tracks, that he begins to sound skillful. John Kennedy of Vibe gave a fairly positive review calling the utopian "Perfect Day" catchy and saying vulnerable moments ("Changing the Locks" and "Heart Attack") round the album out, while hometown collabos ("Take A Bow" with Prodigy, Lloyd Banks, Sen City and "Drops Is Out" with Raekwon, Mel Matrix, Sen City) fly highest.

Franz Josef Land is home to 50 species of seabirds. One of them, the little auk, has seen a drop in body mass in recent years. Enric Sala and the Pristine Seas team investigate the possible causes to help save the species.

Little Auk - Wooly Clouds
https://www.CaseDeVanzare.ro

LYRICS for Wooly Clouds:
We paint the sky
The brightest blue
With wooly dots of clouds
You take my hand
You play around
In the greenest grass
Today you crown me your Prince
With your blinkin' eyes
We play hide 'n seek
In the meltin' sun
We're both invisible
You take my hand 'n
Drag me through this
Unsuspicious crowd
Today you crown me your Prince
With your tender lips
Jump with me
Hold onto the meltin' sun
Climb upon a cloud
Let the whole world pass us by
Today you crown me your Prince
Your Majesty
Today you crown me your Prince
And I declare you mine

Great Auks: The First Penguins
Whilst we may often think of penguins as of an Antarctic persuasion, until relatively recently, Arctic waters were home to their very own penguins. Some might even call them THE penguins, their southern relatives only co-opting their name.
Sadly, these penguins are no more – the result of rampant human over-exploitation. Their story is a sad one, but by recognising it, we can act to prevent it from ever happening again.

BTO Bird ID - Winter Auks
ummer Auks, in breeding plumage, at the shore or near to their colonies are relatively easy to identify. But in Autumn and winter we tend to see them flying rapidly past, far offshore, or bobbing around in heavy seas offering poor views. When you add to this that their distinctive breeding plumage and colouring is lost, winter Auks can be a serious challenge to identify and separate.

Little Auk colony in Arctic Svalbard
We visited this large colony in July 2019. They live close together in a steep bolder field. Whilst we were there an Arctic Fox appeared below and they took off in fright, flying around until the coast was clear. A great sight.
The little auk or dovekie ( Alle alle) is a small auk, the only member of the genus Alle. Alle is the Sami name of the long-tailed duck; it is onomatopoeic and imitates the call of the drake duck. Linnaeus was not particularly familiar with the winter plumages of either the auk or the duck, and appears to have confused the two species.

These birds forage for food like other auks by swimming underwater. They mainly eat crustaceans, especially copepods, of which a 150 g bird require ~60,000 individuals per day (equivalent to 30 g of dry food weight)[4], but they can also eat small invertebrates and fish. Recent evidence suggests that the little auk feeds not by filter-feeding, but by visually guided suction-feeding.[5] They feed closer to the shoreline during nesting season, but when not nesting they scavenge for food in the open-ocean.
The glaucous gull and the Arctic fox are the main predators on little auks. In some cases, the polar bear has also been reported to feed on little auk eggs.
