Spring flowers have slowly faded as the bright vibrant summer flowers make their way upon Earth's stage.
The warm summer wind beckons us... teases use with it's sweet song's "Come play by the water's edge"
We'll dance along the river banks, frolic akin to lover's in spring.
We'll stay until the season melts, and Autumn is chased away by winter winds...
Hi flickr,
My computer's now back on line, finally. Looking forward to visiting your streams again..
I'll be flying out to Philly tomorrow, so will see you all shortly, once I get there. Have a great week..

A southbound CN freight at Akin Junction, IL on CN's Bluford Sub sports a decent-looking barn and former IC SD70 1037. In the background is the load-out for the Sugar Camp mine.
2436 appears to have had some minor surgery, with only one set of class lights on the conductor's side.
In our part of Minnesota, we have an abundance of young rabbits this summer. This is an Eastern Cottontail, the most common species in our state. One reason we have so many of them is that a female can have up to seven litters per year, although only about 15% of the young ones make it to adulthood because of being on the menu of various predators.
These rabbits may be missing their cousins.
There is a phenomenon among birds and animals in the wild called extirpation. That is what wildlife experts call it when a species disappears from a specific geographical area but still exists elsewhere when it survives in other segments of its range.
I discovered the relevance of this term after I left southwestern Minnesota years ago. Back in the 1950s-60s, jackrabbits were commonplace throughout our four distinct seasons. They were fascinating creatures as they changed fur color depending on the season.
During our elongated winters, pure white jackrabbits were a striking sight as they took long hops across snow-laden fields. Sometimes they would decorate two-lane highways, lying alongside the pavement as they had lost the battle to oncoming vehicles.
I might have known some cohorts who hunted them at night after FFA meetings. Young men whose brains had not fully developed yet, would jump in an old pickup. A half dozen of them would stand in the open back, holding .22 rifles as the icy winds would roll tears down half-frozen cheeks.
In the front, there were always two guys, one to drive and the second fellow to operate a hand-held spotlight. The light was akin to a diminutive WWII anti-aircraft searchlight, only this one did not point toward the skies.
Instead, it scoured nearby ditches and fields looking for an erstwhile jackrabbit minding its own business. When the light would focus on the rabbit, it would stand straight up and look toward the source, much to the delight of those in the back of the pickup.
Though this short-sighted adventure was probably illegal, it invariably happened once or twice a winter.
Today, in most parts of Minnesota, jackrabbits hop only in the memories of older folks. Habitat changes have relegated jackrabbits to western and southern Minnesota, where they now primarily live, and they rarely appear elsewhere.
Something has diminished their numbers, even in those areas. Since the 1990s, the Minnesota DNR has recorded low numbers, often less than one jackrabbit per 100 square miles.

“You cannot destroy me. No more than you can destroy the sea, or the wind. Or… the void.”
“The people of the world are builders. But look into their hearts… and you will find that they also have the power to destroy. I am that power. I am destruction. And I WILL destroy you.”
Hi everyone! This is my rendition of the Makuta, as he appeared in the final chapter of the MNOG from 2001. At one point in time, Makuta was more akin to a force of nature than a being. He was chaos and destruction, and he was terrifying. Hope you like him!

Black-tailed prairie dogs are very social animals. These two were clearly showing affection for one another, with something akin to kisses and grooming one another. Taken in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. It was the nation's first bison refuge. Our beautiful world being passed on.
I'm here waiting for you ...

The male Common Merganser to the left, on the ice, has managed to evade the aggressive behaviour of the one in the water on the right, which has called off its attack. The fleeing bird actually slid along the ice on its belly, in a mode of locomotion akin to that of penguins in Antarctica. The elapsed time from Image 1 to Image 4 in this sequence is less than two seconds. This dramatic illustration of bird behaviour happened on a section of the Bow River within the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. That city has a population of about 1.5 million people, showing that interesting bird activity and photographic opportunities occur in urban centres as well as wilderness settings. (Image 4 of 5)

So far quite impressed with the low-light performance of the Z6II. Surprisingly little noise in this image despite being taken at ISO 3200. My D500 would have produced an image akin to a glitter collage at that setting.
Stepping inside the Roman Catholic Garnet Chapel or 'Capella Granata' is akin to entering a large Rubik’s Cube! The chapel itself is located on the first floor and its interior is lined with regional larch wood. The glass dome produces interesting light effects on the ceiling. The portrait is a wooden mosaic which consists of five types of wood from maple, cherry, apple and pear trees as well as walnut.
In freezing, the liquid phase of water turns into the solid phase. At the phase transition, beautiful structures akin to our image of the cosmos are created. Taken in our garden, focus stacked.
