Fledgeling Great Spotted Woodpecker [Dendrocopos major]
This little beauty is about 23/24 days old. He (?) fledged yesterday so his parents will be feeding him for the next ten days, then he’s on his own.
Here, he was squawking to be fed, as his father came and went with tasty morsels for him.
I think there are two nests near The Pixies, (where I feed the birds: a mile down the hill from my house, in the woods, next to the stream), as I’ve seen two different females. So far, I’ve seen three fledgelings, only one of which has been feeding himself, intermittently, while the parents take turns at feeding all of them, whilst still tending the others in their nests.
A great joy to watch these beautiful young birds.

After seeking some advice on "how to.." ....I then spent an hour splashing tomatoes in a glass...laughing and generally feeling like a big kid again! Errors galore and plenty of mess but lots of fun!

Je prends ce magnolia en photo tous les ans, jamais le même cliché... (I take a photo of this tree every year, never the same pic ! )

"Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can't shake
Though we're absolute beginners
We've nothing much at stake
As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
Well if my love is your love
We're certain to succeed..."
Cruising down 11th street in downtown Michigan City, the 1900 job from the BRC brings a cut of cars back to the shops as they pass an old South Shore depot. For this being my first ever time of the South Shore, it definitely didn't disappoint.
from suzuki roshi: "in the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's there are few." i'm trying to view the world with beginner's mind.
sometimes in life we have to wait. for texts, people, moments or just summer. sometimes these things need quite a short time to happen, sometimes they take more time. and sometimes these things will probably never happen.

This was the first attempt to capture the milky way but it seems not successful as I am just a beginner in shooting stars.
Thanks everyone for your vistits, comments and faves.
My finger mistakenly touched the shutter when I checked the monitor. It's clear I still have a lot to learn about using my new camera, there are so many buttons and functions that I don't even know exist.
I had an incredible first visit to this falls on the Sonoma Coast. High flow, huge crashing waves, and an epic stormy #escaype forecasted sunset.
My one gripe with this amazing scene is that most comps I'd seen felt a bit right-heavy. I initially posted a comp with a sunstar and light on the left side, and here is one with the falls centered and the colors a bit more subdued. Probably not everyone's cup of tea in a world dictated by epic, but I wanted to share it regardless.
Greetings from Norway -- we have a little less than one more week out here and then I'll be back in the Bay. Keep rockin' it with epic snow and storm shots!

Something exciting has happened to the humble native coneflower over the past decade. Breeders have put their best efforts toward developing new and improved colors and forms of this easy-growing native perennial wildflower. Some of the newest varieties are hybrid crosses between two different coneflower species. With these makeovers, Echinacea has morphed into a rock star in the garden. With the addition of so many new Echinacea forms, it is possible to design an entire landscape centered on this flower.
Not that there was anything wrong with the original E. purpurea, a familiar dusky purple daisy-like flower with a prominent orange center. Its long bloom period, self-seeding habit, and drought tolerance still make it a favorite of beginners and professionals alike, who delight in the wildlife-friendly attributes of the pollen-rich blooms. Coneflowers are trouble-free but just watch out that you don't overwater the plant or root rot and fungal diseases like powdery mildew can occur.
