* I'm grateful for visit, favs and comments of my photo.
New location from the rear garden where I have repainted the garden shed. (Despite being fairly new all the heavy rain in the spring was too much for the factory sprayed Sadolin treatment.)
Jaws the fox my main model is getting later in arriving as daylight keeping him away. He still likes the meat rather than the badger & fox nuts which get left until the small hours.

From the long, long ago archives - I sure miss this bird!

Happy May Day! My first Osprey of the season.
Osprey feed primarily on live fish, which they catch from the water by using their long, hooked talons. An osprey can plunge so forcefully into the water that if will completely submerge! They are a perfect fishing machine with a success rate of around 70%.
You saw the landscape image earlier in the week. Here's the snowy owl photobombing it. Hope you enjoy it for what it is ... just having some creative fun. Shot at the Canadian Raptor Center in Ontario, Canada, October 2017. Harding Ice Field, Alaska, USA, July 2013

Happy Easter Monday to all our followers, commenters, admirers, and survivors! We will continue to post images on Bank Holidays while the Covid-19 crisis continues. For today, we have a remarkable image of Main Street in Kingscourt, Co. Cavan with the hill rising away from us, and a crowd of men(?) gathered about half way down! What was the occasion?
+++ UPDATE +++
Much happy speculation as to the occasion, but nothing definite that we could hang our Sunday Best hats on. However, we did narrow the date. Our Lawrence photo collection dates between 1865 and 1914. As you’ve all managed from dating various buildings to narrow the date to 1909-1922, for our purposes, that means this photograph was taken between 1909 and 1914. Thank you, one and all!
Photographer: Robert French
Collection: Lawrence Photograph Collection
Date: Circa 1909-1914, but likely 1901 -1902

The caption states "Flooded Street" but it's not flooded, just very wet! What is remarkable is the stream of cars coming down the street in Glenties. What was going on? Was it a funeral or were the politicians in town?

Thanks for all the kind comments on retirement. Rather a small inconvenience in the grand scheme of things and just praying this virus will subside and we'll all get back to normal. Just had to get out a bit this morning and check out the blossoms of the Pussy Willow at White lake. We have daffodils and forsythia but I like these the best as my first sign of Spring. Hope everyone remains safe and wash your hands!!

This sunrise at this lake was just wonderful! Amazing light - freezing temperatures - half of the lake was frozen - and the water like a mirror - unbelievable - no wind - just alone - pure nature and silence...a feast for your eyes and your soul...
Alpenglühen - Sonnenaufgang am North Lake, Kalifornien
Dieser Sonnenaufgang an diesem See war einfach wunderbar! Unglaublich schönes Licht - eisige Temperaturen - die Hälfte des Sees war zugefroren - und das Wasser wie ein Spiegel - kein Wind - ganz alleine - pure reine Natur und Stille ...ein Fest für das Auge und die Seele

Der zum Dachsteingebirge gehörende, alleinstehende und 2351 m hohe Grimming wurde wegen seiner schroffen und wuchtigen Erscheinung Jahrhunderte lang für den höchsten Berg der Steiermark gehalten, den "Mons Styriae altissimus". Wer ihn besteigen will hat rund 1700 Höhenmeter Aufstieg vor sich, somit also eine absolut herausfordernde Aufgabe. Auf diesem Foto von SO sind rechts neben dem Grimming auch noch Schloss Trautenfels sowie die kleine Ortschaft Pürgg (von Peter Rosegger auch "Kripperl der Steiermark" genannt) erkennbar.
The to the Dachstein mountain group belonging, solitaire, and 2351 metres high mountain Grimming was because of his abrupt and massive appearance supposed for centuries to be the highest mountain of Styria, the "Mons Styriae altissimus". Who want to climb him has around 1700 metres in height ahead, therefore a absolutely challenging task. At this photo from SE are right beside the Grimming recognizable Trautenfels Castle and the little village Puergg (by the poet Peter Rosegger also called the "little manger of Styria").
Another nocturnal faff to appease my creative inner child. Many thanks to my old pal Nihal for his invaluable patience and assistance.
