Mirror Image of a Ring-billed Seagull with a catch. Sometimes the light is just right to get one of these shots. Today was one of those days.
The African fish eagle (Haliaeetus vocifer) is not a ‘true’ eagle but belongs to the Haliaeetus genus of sea eagles, alongside seven other species worldwide that include the American bald eagle and the Eurasian white-tailed eagle. This is one of the most ancient genera among all living birds. And it is a sight to behold.
African fish eagles are kleptoparasites, which is to say they habitually steal prey from other species. Common victims of this piratical behaviour include goliath herons and saddle-billed stork.
A fish eagle’s toes are coated in sharp barbs, called spiricules, which consequently help it to grasp fish and other slippery prey.
Fish are not the only item on the menu of this versatile predator. In addition, other prey includes ducks, terrapins, crocodiles, small waterfowl and even – in the soda lakes of East Africa – flamingos.
This bird’s conspicuous nature and charismatic presence ensure it figures prominently in the folklore and heraldry of several nations.
This amazing African Fish Eagle was photographed just after sunrise coming in to pick up the bait on a early morning boat ride on Lake Baringo, Kenya.
That peacock lives in "Rauboniu parkas". "Rauboniu parkas" lives in Lithuainia :)

The other day a fox was running across our clearing in broad daylight. When I left the house to photograph her, she ran to the other side of the clearing and jumped onto the fence like a cat! And she stayed on the fence for about a minute, so I had time to take a few pictures.
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
We could be living the life
they all wish they were living
No chains to hold us down
They’re labeling us how we’re missing
But we have thrown it away
‘Cause we’ve seen better days

Another shot from back in October, this I think was one of my best dawns on the beach and all on my own as well so I am shearing another moment of this ever changing light show with you.
Spectacular cloudy sunrise @ 6.10am this morning!
Wishing everyone a lovely Saturday from Sydney, enjoy your weekend!
These lovely drops of water were all over my poppies this recent morning. I was there to capture it and the above is the result.
This is not from raindrops or dew drops, it is irrigation sprinkler drops so that is less romantic I realize. But none the less, isn't the photo beautiful?!
There is a LOT of earthquake current event stuff going on lately around here but I had to post a normal photo to flickr aside from the current events. I hope you will enjoy it and comment and fave it.

One of the most famous rocks faces in the world is Half Dome rises nearly 5,000 feet above Yosemite Valley and 8,800 feet above sea level . In summer it is a favorite hiking trail that is scary on top and takes about 12 hours round trip. Made of granite and formed after several ice ages and make famous by the black and white photos of Ansel Adams. One of the prettiest spots on planet earth. flic.kr/p/2mMT8Yj click the link to see an amazing Yosemite video too.
