" Arsenios ruminated bitterly behind the iconostasis "
One of the main differences between Orthodox churches and Western churches is the presence of an iconostasis , a screen separating the nave from the sanctuary, formed of religious paintings or icons.
Pine martens ( Martes martes ) are found in Europe and North America. They live mostly in trees, and are nocturnal by habit. They feed on small animals, berries and eggs. They belong to the weasel family.
