Penguin Colony, Living Coasts, Torquay, Devon

Finally they managed to get it on...I felt like giving them a round of aplause but I wandered off and lit a cigarette!

Edit: Well a bit of a turn up for the books...due to the comments made by my learned friend Tim Melling, I now believe these to be both males displaying homosexual behaviour...maybe it should be added to the long list of other animals and insects listed here on Wikipedia that do the same.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animals_displaying_homosexu...

I have also learned that the street term for homosexual in Mexico is “Mariposa”, meaning butterfly in Spanish. The stereotyped image of a homosexual is that of an effeminate male who tends to keep up his appearance and leads an active social life composed of many appearances at bars and parties. Homosexuals may be called “Mariposas” because of their associations with butterflies symbolizing femininity, the lepidopteral symbol of “social butterfly”, and butterfly’s habit of “flitting” from flower to flower.

Each to their own, I say! :@)

This Australian Magpie ruffled up some grass (I use the word lightly) hunkered down with wings spread and stayed like that for several minutes. Then he hopped up and walked away preening itself.

The only explaination I can think of is ant cleaning. I have seen starlings gather up a bunch of ants in their beak, and rub them under their wings. I'm told the formic acid from the ants delouses the feathers.

Sorry for poor quality it was taken through a window.

And sometimes, she had to pause and make room for more !

Sarah Keenan from the Adactus Tenancy Enforcement and Support Team joined partner agencies on the evening of Friday 4th February 2011 to assist with Operation Lockdown on the Moston Estate.

 

Sarah joined Greater Manchester Police, Northwards Wardens, Dog Wardens, Youth Workers, Street Environment Managers and Councillor Paul Murphy the chair of the Greater Manchester Police committee to help tackle anti-social behaviour in the Lightbowne area.

 

Sarah said: “I visited all the Adactus properties on Levens Street and Spreadbury Street along with a Police Constable and the Street Environment Manager. The visit was to gain intelligence about anti-social behaviour which is being committed in this area. We gained a few valuable leads and this is vital to help improve the area and create sustainability. “

 

Police arrested two men during this operation, the visibility was high with 25 officers flooding the Lightbowne Estate to tackle anti-social behaviour and low level street crime. Operation Lockdown was part of a campaign to have high visibility on the streets and make residents feel safe and secure.

Inspect Gareth Parkin of the Harpurhey and Moston Police said: Operation Lockdown is a very effective tactic we as partners adopt to tackle crime and ASB. Adactus always play a key role in the Operations we carry-out on the A4, in particular my thanks go out to Sarah, for her hard work, dedication and self motivation she is an essential part of our A4 team"

Ever wondered how the penguins' beaks get so shiny?

There's a team of young ladies who make sure they are spick and span.

At least I hope that's what they are doing !-D

Taking nosiness to a new level, Maya drags her stool right up to the neighbour's fence and has a good look, all from the comfort of a seated position.

The grand entrance hall to Kings Weston House just to the North of Bristol, and one of the city's finest buildings. Carefully restored by a local architect who now runs the place for meetings and events. This detail of the fire surround, not the original Vanbrughn one but a later Georgian addition really makes me smile. I am sure most of teh wedding guests miss this

Socks the cat spent several minutes playing with this mouse, who showed incredible pluck in standing up to him, sadly the outcome wasn't so favourable for the mouse!.

Most greens grow upwards. Das meiste Grünzeug wächst nach oben. The record album with the same name is one of my all-time favourites though ;–)

@ the Johannesburg zoo. She kept placing bunches of feed on her head like a hat.

Change in dog behaviour: When your dog reaches the age of two, you will see fewer behaviours that were common when he was younger.

 

He's less likely to get involved in things he shouldn't and less likely to be rambunctious. You will also notice that he is more attentive when training.

 

Have fun with your puppy at the age of two. Around five months, most puppies go through a difficult stage.

Depending on the breed, dogs may not grow out of their adolescent phase for another 2-3 years.

Many experts think the most challenging period is between 8 and 18 months. This is the only time they mature, and most adults don't do childish things like intentionally disobeying a command they already understand, like "sit."

 

It is not a fixed date when they suddenly "change." They change as they reach full maturity.

 

They had reached sexual maturity at six months, and we had them in our early teens, but neither of us was emotionally mature.

What To Expect As Your Dog Approaches Two Years of Age

Growth And Development

Your dog should be eating adult dog food by now. Please select a high-quality dog food that will supply appropriate nutrients while not overloading him with calories. The amount of food required by your dog is determined by its size, activity level, and breed.

 

Assess your puppy's diet kind and amount with your veterinarian or a dog nutritionist. As for activity level, remember that your puppy benefits from daily exercise.

My morning routine was to wake, load my hand grinder with coffee, grind, and french press (or Ritual shall we say?).

Coffee was a delicious Kenya Kaliluni Peaberry from Ritual Coffee.

 

Late January in Halifax, 2012.

He welcomes people, he walks with people. This animal lives, as far as I know, on my local graveyard. But his social behaviour makes him special.
