Es algo al borde de lo cómico, esto de que los problemas aclaren tanto la mente a veces. Y yo soy un travesti xD
These pigeons were tunnelling into the snowbank at the corner of my street -- they pecked all the way down to the grass!

Comments welcome & criticism encouraged.
A small group of goldeneye was hunching low to the water before every dive. No idea why -- when they'd stop foraging they'd stop doing this, and other ducks in the vicinity didn't try anything similar.
Demonstrating that they are leafcutters too, Trachusa laeviventris line their nests with leaf fragments. At one study site they were mainly cut from the leaves of Cistus salvifolius and Cistus crispus.

Stockport's - Safe4Summer.
The initiative is part of the Government’s mission to restore and strengthen local policing in communities and reduce or prevent anti-social behaviour (ASB). As part of this, there will be a greater visibility of Greater Manchester Police (GMP) officers and partners as we work together across crime hot spot areas.
Kate Green, Deputy Mayor for Safer and Stronger Communities, said: "We’re determined to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer place for everyone. The Safer Streets Summer Initiative is a testament to our dedication to reducing crime and enhancing the quality of life for our residents.
“By continuing to work closely with our communities and partners, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels safe and can enjoy not only the summer but all year round and every year. We’ll be working hard to ensure our town centres are safe and welcoming for all.”
Assistant Chief Constable Matt Boyle, GMP’s lead for Local Policing, said: “Our neighbourhoods are negatively impacted by various crimes such as the illegal use of e-bikes, drug dealing and other ASB.
“As a force, it’s our mission to listen to our community’s concerns and take action where crime is committed. Our proactive approach to tackling neighbourhood crime has meant that since 2021, we’ve reduced burglary by a third and vehicle crime by a quarter, thanks to the dedication of our local neighbourhood teams, working closely with partners across the region.
“Over the summer months, they will be focusing on increasing engagement with our communities to listen and respond to their concerns. Residents and business owners will also see an increase in the visibility of officers and partners, as we work together to ensure a safe summer for all. This isn’t about trying to spoil people’s fun over the summer months, it is making sure everyone can enjoy themselves without feeling unsafe or being hurt.
“We welcome the Home Office initiative, which perfectly aligns to the neighbourhood policing model our force implemented locally two years ago. Safe4Summer is the perfect opportunity to highlight the strength of our partnerships in Greater Manchester, and our determination to minimise crime and disorder and to ensure Greater Manchester is a safer and more desirable place for all.”
TravelSafe Partnership Manager at Transport for Greater Manchester, Kate Green, said: “While the vast majority of people using the Bee Network do so safely and responsibly, we know that crime and anti-social behaviour increases over school holidays, and that is not something we will tolerate.
“We work hard every day to keep people safe, whether that’s through our engagement programme or the many proactive operations that take place. We will have an increased presence across the Bee Network to prevent and deter incidents, helping people to travel and enjoy their summer safely and with confidence.”
In 2023, Greater Manchester Police made a commitment that every district ward has a named local police officer, and we would keep communities informed through our use of the community messaging service, Bee in the Loop, which provides the latest news on events and incidents straight to your email inbox.
In April 2025, we welcomed the opportunity to further strengthen our neighbourhood offer, with an increase in numbers of neighbourhood officers by 176, to help GMP to continue to deliver in tackling crime and working with partners and communities to keep our streets safe.

Anxiety is a common phenomenon and, in some circumstances, is entirely normal, for example, before an interview or a driving test. Indeed, a certain amount of anxiety has been shown to improve performance in these situations
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
Some other aspects of Grebe behaviour from the aggressive cat like posture after the retreat and the high speed, stretched out swim.
This pair of Black Oystercatchers nested in this same location last year. They are the first to lay eggs in the reserve this year, two this year compared to last year's three. Generally, only 2 chicks make it anyway. Shooting Oystercatchers on their nests requires a super telephoto lens, patience, and a hide... or a camera trap! Oystercatchers rely on the camouflage of their eggs for protection and so leave the nest at the slightest sign of danger. Today after a bald eagle fly-by I hid my camera near the nest and set it to shoot every 15 seconds. I watched to make sure the camera didn't disturb the birds and it went on to record nearly 5 hours of natural behaviour. These shots mostly show the mother returning to the nest after a disturbance (they occurred about 4 times an hour), but out of 12 GB of images there were plenty of egg-turning, thermoregulation (panting), and other behaviours recorded.
