Schooner Alert at the Goelet Cup race on August 5, 1892. My colorization of the original image in the Library of Congress archive (Detroit Publising Co. collection).

The 92.5 feet schooner yacht Alert was built in Boston in 1888, according to the US Annual list of Merchant vessels. The owner was the New York millionaire John N. Luning (1859 - 1923).

An nice, alert buck.

After I took this photo, my boyfriend had a go at the same subject and took this. As I was waiting for Michael to take his shot, a tall man suddenly and slowly picked a street bin, raised it over his head and threw it at Michael, luckily landing about a meter in front of Michael and his beloved camera. He did not want his picture taken.

Canada goose, Branta canadensis

Berkeley Meadows, Berkeley, California

Yesterday as I drove on an isolated gravel road between two lines of trees, two Barred Owls flashed across the road and one of them landed about 50 feet from the road where I was able to get a decent shot of him. Cute little fellow.

All watching a juvenile leopard walking between two trees.

these two mule deer were pretty alert when a coyote was walking though the fields 100 yards away, no serious threat though in the open field. Point Reyes, CA

Another backyard critter.... Cottontail Rabbit. Seems he's on alert here, maybe due to me or because one of the neighborhood cats was in the yard.

Im Feld unterwegs, Butzbach, Im Feld, 09.06.25

Taken at RSPB Lochwinnoch, Scotland.

This buck was nibbling acorns when he alerted to a couple of does. No chasing does anymore. They just came up and dined together. We will know the rut is ended for sure when the bucks start forming small bachelor bands again. Our beautiful world, pass it on.

Looking for elevenses

This bunny and its buddies are everywhere in our landscape this year and are the reason for several of perennials not growing above a 6-inch height, all munched down by these culprits :(

 

Still, my wife and I love them, and when they allow me to capture soft and lovely images like this, the few lost flowers are worth it :)

This vervet monkey (chlorocebus pygerythrus) decided to come down from the trees and into the long grass. All very well but long grass can hide predators as well as you!! The monkey was on high alert for the brief time it spent in the grass and soon returned to a nearby tree. Photographed in The Okavango, Botswana.

This Galah was on alert, really to take off at anytime.
