I am getting around to placing better portraits of raptors up now, I must learn to slow down and crop properly.
Back story;
as I said I had got low down in the exit gully to get a good angle for the pictures , I totally forgot the bow wave they were making was going to come straight up the gully where I was standing.....
when I realised it was too late, and I ended up knee deep in freezing water.The guys in the car video the whole thing but when we played it back they were laughing so much the video was unusable ....:-)
The schooner Alert moored near Cooks Restaurant on Bailey Island in Harpswell, Maine. I have also loaded the color version. There was a rather stiff breeze as is indicated by the pennant on the mast. The dots on the water are lobster trap bouys.
Schooner “ALERT” is a 70ft Maine built wooden tall-ship that offers Two, Four, and Six hour public and private sailing cruises for up to 28 passengers.
We are available for public day sailing trips and chartering privately. Experience the luxury of having ALERT and her crew all to yourself. We love the possibilities! Island Adventures trips are offered to students and private parties where we sail to one of the hundreds of islands off the coast of Maine, anchor to go ashore and explore. [Website]
Keeping an eye on the competition... how many are there, who are they, what boards are they using...
Dit darmhert mannetje hield mij nauwlettend in de gaten. Gezien in de Amsterdamse Waterleidingduinen.
This fallow deer buck was watching me closely. Seen in the Amsterdam Water Supply Dunes.
Here I've tried to highlight some of the current situation with the Corona virus awareness in Rajshahi.

Cute Post Alert!
Morning guys! Another post from my visit to the fox cubs from a couple of weeks back with my buddy Dan.
There is an area of the graveyard which is beautifully backlit during golden hour and we took full advantage of this by lying on the floor and waiting for the cubs to come out and play. This little guy was ever so obliging!
I hope you are enjoying seeing a variety of my wildlife/people and landscape shots! I love the variety of shooting many genres and getting involved in so many aspects of photography!
One of the wolves checking out the humans. Currently there is the alpha pair, and 3 juveniles born in April 2016. The alpha pair, Zana and Flint, have been together again for breeding.

A herd of Impalas looking back in the direction that they came from.
Impala - Fast food of the African bush!
The impala even has the distinctive MacDonald's "M" on its rump and are also called predator take-aways. There are thousands of them in the Kruger Park and we get so used to spotting them that eventually we just ignore them.
Impalas have evolved a number of unique adaptations that allow them to thrive in their dangerous environment.
Grooming and tick removal are high on the list of survival skills. The impala is the only hoofed animal that allogrooms - mutual grooming from one animal to another - as well as grooming itself.
It is also the smallest antelope that tolerates oxpecker birds to assist in removing ticks. Ticks can reduce blood reserves exposing the antelope to disease and malnutrition. To assist them in grooming, impalas possess an "antelope's toothcomb" comprised of canines and incisors adapted for removing ticks and other parasites. By allogrooming they get rid of ticks etc in the unreachable places, like around the ears, head and neck. When it comes to the area under the tails the two black stripes of the MacDonalds logo come into play. The constantly wagging tail of the impala brushes the ticks towards the warmer black hair where the impala can reach with its teeth.
Unlike most animals, the impalas graze and browse, thereby maximising the availability of food. For safety they move in herds as large as the available food will allow. They scatter in all directions if a predator should charge, leaping in strides of up to 12 meters. Impala ewes give birth away from the herd and rejoins with her calf within two days. With lambs in the herd, vigilance is sharpened, but the lambs still fall prey to wild dogs and other predators.
Even though they are considered predator "fast food", their numbers are increasing and these graceful antelope will not be on the endangered list for some time to come.

Had a sow with two 3 year old cubs on Stoney Hill today. This one raised up to look for the others.
Notice the leaf sticking out of it's mouth..... :)

Even he is busy eating, ears are pretty alert.

Camm Alert in Buckie. Still with original name Ptarmigan on the hull. It is one of the smaller scallop dredgers at a little under 15 metres in length.
I received this Flickr mail today and actually thought for a moment it might have been legitimate. Oh, no! What if I had actually violated someone's copyright? I don't want to do that!
Then I remembered... I don't post other people's stuff as my own. If I do use a picture as a backdrop, I always post a link to that creator's original, cite them, and thank them. To date, no one has objected.
I looked more closely at the link and noticed that, not only did it not link to an official governmental domain, but it linked to a .dev domain, which indicates it is used by developers for testing code. Someone set up this operation in haste, trusting that many of the potential targets do not understand URLs and domains.
Not only is there no Flickr user registered as Heady Potato, but the user icon doesn't have a drop-down like legitimate ones do. Perhaps Flickr already whacked Heady Potato's account for sending phish-y emails.
If you receive a Flickr mail like this, do not click on any links. Delete it with a grin, knowing that you beat a scammer today.
According to BBC News, 250+ infections in Japan (4th most infected country), 2 cases in Tokyo.
