Fukuia kurodai and Fukuia multistriata live amphibiously around rocky walls of steep valleys covered with ferns and bryophytes, and moistened by dripping water. They live only along the mountain streamlets where such habitats are typically found, and often occur with pleurocerid freshwater snails. Fukuia integra lives as a terrestrial snail in inland forests.

Members of this genus are quite diverse. They reside in dense shade near streamlets that trickle though tropical forests. The majority are black with blue markings, though some are entirely black. They mostly have a blue thorax and a blue tip to the abdomen and are similar in size to large pond damsels.

Proceratophrys melanopogon is an explosive breeder. After heavy rain has fallen creating temporary pools and streamlets, large numbers of male frogs gather together and call to attract females. The call is a multipulsed series of notes with a frequency of about 1179 Hz and is heard between 6pm and midnight. The tadpoles develop in slow-moving streams.

Ptychadena wadei is known from montane grassland and shrubland at elevations of above sea level. Breeding takes place in temporary pools and streamlets. Threats to this species are poorly known, but it is likely to be affected by habitat degradation, primarily caused by agricultural development, expanding human settlements, and overgrazing by livestock. It is not known to occur in any protected area.

"La Rabouilleuse" is the nickname of Flore Brazier used behind her back by the people of Issoudun. Max takes offence when some of his friends use it in conversation. Adamson translates the term as "the Fisherwoman". The nickname is a reference to the job that she did as a young girl when helping her uncle to fish for crayfish, by stirring up (to "rabouiller") the streamlets.

Walupt Lake is a ribbon lake situated near the end of a long glacial valley. The main inflow to Walupt Lake is the perennial, snowmelt-fed Walupt Creek, which flows out of a long valley into the east end of the lake. Other small streamlets flow into the lake from the steep valley walls above. The lake's watershed encompasses of land in the southern Goat Rocks.

Its range is restricted to the Sandstone Mountains of the South Western Cape, South Africa, west of Hermanus to Table Mountain and northwards into the Cederberg Mountains. It is common on Table Mountain, and the Back Table, but is rarely seen further south on the Cape Peninsula. The orchid grows near waterfalls, streamlets, and seeps in the mountains. It is, however, never found along the shores of dams whose water levels vary considerably during the year.

Johnson's Shut-Ins State Park in Missouri, with its hard rhyolite and a diabase dike that divert the Black River into many small streamlets following a complex joint system, is the most well known example.Beveridge, p.39 - 62 More than ninety other shut–ins occur within and around the St. Francois Mountains region of southeast Missouri. The term has an origin in Appalachia, where it was used to refer to a narrow river gorge confined by resistant rock layers.

Radix balthica lives in rivers and creeks, streams and streamlets and stagnant waters.It has high degrees of tolerance to pH levels, salinity concentrations and temperature conditions but it prefers calcareous waters (Welter-Schulte 2009). Reproduction: The animals are hermaphrodite like all species of Lymnaeidae, but have separate sexual apertures and are not inbreeding. During copulation the snail playing the role of the male overlaps on the snail playing female presenting "his" penis to the opening of the "female".

The Church of Mercy or Igreja da Misericórdia. Viseu is approximately East of the Atlantic Ocean.

The purpose in building this place was stated to be that Metcalfe wanted to keep a watch on Emperor Bahadur Shah II who also had his Zafar Mahal palace in Mehrauli to spend his summer time. The complex was a pleasant place with several controlled streamlets of water, which led to a tank (now called the Metcalfe’s Boathouse and Dovecote). The tank was dated to the Lodi Dynasty period. This was refurbished by Metcalfe for use, for boating and swimming.

The Monkey Fountain is a fountain on the outside wall of a bank in the historic center of Freiburg which was built in 1905 to replace an older cast iron fountain in the same place. The bank built the fountain with the financial support of the city as a public water supply fountain. Friedrich Meinecke's sculpture depicts a monkey biting an apple. Water flows from the mouth of the monkey into a semicircular bowl and from there into one of Freiburg's streamlets.

The last scene freezes there, showing another mad woman trying to drink water from the streamlets pouring down from the upper iron structure. Like the case of Suri Khepi, perhaps this was the beginning of another story of committing sins. The entire story deals with human relations and how the guilt of having done something wrong haunts everyone in the village. They want to make up for their sins, but end up opening a new can of worms and spoiling a marriage.

Bony lassie, will ye go, Will ye go, will ye go; Bony lassie, will ye go To the birks of Aberfeldy. 512x512px Now Simmer blinks on flowery braes, And o'er the chrystal streamlets plays; Come let us spend the lightsome days In the birks of Aberfeldy. The little birdies blythely sing While o'er their heads the hazels hing, Or lightly flit on wanton wing, In the birks of Aberfeldy. The braes ascend like lofty wa's, The foamy stream deep-roaring fa's, O'erhung wi' fragrant spreading shaws, The birks of Aberfeldy.

Of the 2,285 species on the Peninsula 1,500 occur in the 57 km2 area comprising Table Mountain and the Back Table, a number at least a large as all the plant species in the whole of the United Kingdom. The Disa uniflora, despite its restricted range within the Western Cape, is relatively common in the perennially wet areas (waterfalls, streamlets and seeps) on Table Mountain and the Back Table, but hardly anywhere else on the Cape Peninsula. It is a very showy orchid that blooms from January to March on the Table Mountain Sandstone regions of the mountain.

Farr subsequently received commissions to make six similar rings. Farr was impressed with the scenery around Akaroa: > The panoramic bird's eye view we had of the luxuriant and romantic country > almost baffles description... Over the bay, the water without a ripple > mirrored the forest covered mountains with their soft purple tints. A scene > so exquisite and fascinating could never pall. We were charmed with all we > saw: the vegetation in its primeval beauty: almighty giants of the forest > overshadowing dainty ferns and delicate mosses; rippling streamlets winding > in sweet cadence amid the forest trees... About the time of his arrival the first English flourmill in Canterbury was erected in Akaroa's Grehan Valley.

We've sheep on the hillsides, we've cows on the plain, And gay-tasselled corn-fields and rank-growing grain; There are deer on the mountains, and wood-pigeons fly From the crack of our muskets, like clouds on the sky. And there's fish in our streamlets and rivers which take Their course from the hills to our broad bosomed lake; Through rock-arched Winooski the salmon leaps free, And the portly shad follows all fresh from the sea. Like a sunbeam the pickerel glides through the pool, And the spotted trout sleeps where the water is cool, Or darts from his shelter of rock and of root, At the beaver's quick plunge, or the angler's pursuit. And ours are the mountains, which awfully rise, Till they rest their green heads on the blue of the skies; And ours are the forests unwasted, unshorn, Save where the wild path of the tempest is torn.
