Abby is confused for a minute. We were walking beside the normal path to stay off the snow but she kept going back to it even though it was only twenty feet away. Repetition is EVERYTHING to a pup

Breeding behaviour
Where possible, the birds excavate a nesting burrow into the soil. Sometimes they will make use of Manx shearwater or rabbit burrows. Where burrowing is not possible, the birds nest under boulders or in cracks and cavities in cliffs.
The birds defend the nesting site and its immediate surround, and use it in subsequent years. Puffins lay only a single egg, in late April or early May. Both parents incubate it for 36-45 days, and they share the feeding duties until the chick is ready to fledge.
The fledging period is very variable, ranging from 34 to 60 days, depending on the area and year.
Adult birds desert their young shortly before they are ready to leave the nest. The timing of the breeding in puffin colonies is highly synchronised, and so the departure of all adults takes place within a few days.
The young birds leave their nest burrow and make their way to the sea, normally under cover of darkness to avoid predators. In some colonies, for instance in Iceland, nearby bright lights confuse the young birds, which then fly into the light and end up on city streets.
Puffins usually reach breeding age at 5-6 years old, and often live for 20 years.
Stummbled on these 3 hares in a field and had a great couple of hours filming and photgraphing these guys.
The Gilly suit was on for this as I didn't know how tolerant they would be of me. ISO was between 500-800 and F stop 4 - 5.6 on AV

Oldham Council has successfully obtained Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs) against two Borough residents.
Jordan Lee Pilkington, of
Brookdale Street

The area he must keep away from is bordered by
Waterfield Way
,
Brierley Avenue
,
Hibbert Crescent
and
Ashton Road East
.
The 15-year-old is also banned from associating with a number of named individuals.
The order runs until October 25, 2014 and if Pilkington breaches the terms he could be sentenced to a two-year detention and training order.
Magistrates sitting at Oldham also granted a two-year ASBO against Darren McCann, of Rockliffe Villa,
Haworth Street

The 39-year-old, who has a history of prior convictions for numerous offences, is now banned from Oldham Town Centre and is only allowed into the area to attend pre-arranged appointments.
Under the terms of the order he is not allowed to carry any open container of alcohol while in the exclusion zone.
If McCann breaches the order he could face a possible sentence of five years in jail.
Councillor Jean Stretton, Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods and Devolved Services, said “Oldham Council and our partners take anti-social behaviour very seriously and we will not hesitate to take action against those who assault, harass or abuse other residents in this way.
“Anti-social behaviour is an issue that affects us all and will not be tolerated. This kind of behaviour can make some residents feel wary of leaving their homes.
“We want people to feel safe on the streets of Oldham.”
Oldham Community Safety Services have a team of dedicated Community Safety Officers who work with District Teams to tackle anti-social behaviour, and reduce crime and disorder.

Quickly grabbed a bendy lamp I had in my room and made a makeshift off-camera light.
mmmm, Coca Colaaa
Sitting on a rock near a marsh, I was hoping to do some light reading. Instead I did some light photography, as I must have been near a nest of this red-wing blackbird, which was putting on a very aggressive display. Little bird, but a big heart.

The gelada baby monkeys at Yorkshire Wildlife Park (YWP) are a great to watch. Native to the Ethiopian highlands, geladas are the world's only grass-grazing primates. The infants are born with pink faces and dark fur, clinging tightly to their mothers as they explore their rocky habitat. These sociable and expressive monkeys are known for their "lip flip" displays and complex vocalisations. YWP provides an incredible opportunity to observe their playful antics and family interactions up close, offering a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating primates.
Harvester (Feniseca tarquinius) male territorial behaviour.
Mohican State Park, Ohio, USA.
May 21, 2005.
I love the way this little guy is craning his neck--standing guard on his territory. Every few seconds he'd chase all comers away, regardless of species, then return to his post. Like many other male butterflies, he defends his territory vigorously, hoping a female will take interest.
Some bugs just have more personality than others. Harvesters have character out the wazoo. They're curious by nature and so much fun to watch. Sometimes they'll even interact with you. Several times when they've come check me out, they've landed on my outstretched hand.
