This black bear was digging under a rock for a salmon that had died there. It dug for about 5 minutes stopping often to check it's surroundings. There were hundreds of salmon carcasses laying around but the bear wanted the one under the rock.

This Black-necked Stilt was making quite a fuss in Brazoria County a few days ago. Those long legs always make for interesting photos.

Here is a Black-tailed Godwit coming into land at Martin Mere in Lancashire. Most of the 40,000 Black-tailed Godwits that occur in Britain are of the Icelandic breeding race (islandica). The small number (c50 pairs) that breed in the Fens are of the paler European nominate race limosa. Icelandic birds that have failed at breeding will often return straight away to Britain, but one-year old birds that are too young to breed probably don't bother flying to Iceland for a reccie, but remain in Britain for their first summer so they can be seen on British wetlands year-round. The Icelandic breeding population has undergone a sustained increase over the last century and this has resulted in an increase in birds visiting Britain. When I started birdwatching a sighting of a Black-tailed Godwit was noteworthy but now birdwatchers seem to be blasé about them. My first Collins guide (Heinzel, Fitter & Parslow published in 1972) listed Black-tailed Godwit as "Local or uncommon".

Have a great weekend everyone and thank you for stopping by!

"This latter was a remarkably large and beautiful animal, entirely black, and sagacious to an astonishing degree. In speaking of his intelligence, my wife, who at heart was not a little tinctured with superstition, made frequent allusion to the ancient popular notion, which regarded all black cats as witches in disguise. Not that she was ever serious upon this point --and I mention the matter at all for no better reason than that it happens, just now, to be remembered.

 

Pluto --this was the cat's name --was my favorite pet and playmate. I alone fed him, and he attended me wherever I went about the house. It was even with difficulty that I could prevent him from following me through the streets."

Shot with my new Nikon Dƒ, processed in Lightroom using VSCO Film Pack 04.

This black bear was one of only two bears I saw while I was in Yellowstone NP. Each bear was at least 150 yards away and the photo further cropped. Pleas view in large view. As always many thanks to all that take the time to view and fav my photo journey and of course all comments are appreciated.

Black Swan (Cygnus atratus)

This "ruffled" Black Phoebe was seen at the Los Angeles County Arboretum. For a few seconds it stopped flitting from perch to perch - they love the water sprinklers !!
