This is what you aren't supposed to do. Whistler bears like this one aren't going to attack anyone in this situation but the idiot person is making them even more comfortable being close to humans - and that's not a good thing for the bear.

Some interesting behaviour here - a Killdeer feigning injury, presumably in order to fool me into trying to capture and eat it and thereby leading me away from its nest. I don't know where its nest is, but Killdeer do have a reputation for laying their eggs in inconvenient places. The bird pictured is lying in the middle of a moderately busy road (busy for a village anyway) between a school playing field and a school bus shelter parking lot. Fortunately, it was nifty enough to get up and run away when a car came, much to my relief. The rusty back and tail feathers, which are not seen when the bird is running around normally, almost look like dried blood. I wonder if they add to the illusion?

I am trying to push myself with pictures...sometimes i create awesomeness (lol well in my mind!), yet it gets not as much love as I think it should get, and the other so so things I do will get lots of love. I just dont get it sometimes, but I guess in the grand scheme of things once I really figure out this photography thing I will be awesome. Ok living in California, well can't stop that phrase from popping up now and again lol. Have a great week!

A male blackbird sitting on a garage roof (while its mate sat on a garden fence behaving in the same way), spreading its wings and fanning its tail, fluffing its feathers on the head and back, and holding its head to one side, looking directly into the sun with one eye. The behaviour is known as sunning and in this country, sunning has been observed in blackbirds more often than any other species (Simmons, K.E.L. The Sunning Behaviour of Birds, Bristol Ornithologists Club, 1986).
The Geffrye is a much-loved gem in the lively and creative Hoxton area - historically a centre for furniture-making and market gardening. Set in 18th-century almshouses and surrounded by gardens, it is often described as an oasis in the heart of the city.
The Geffrye focuses on the urban living rooms and gardens of the English middle classes. Our collections show how homes have been used and furnished over the past 400 years, reflecting changes in society and behaviour as well as style, fashion and taste.
A series of period rooms lead visitors on a walk through time from 17th century oak furniture and panelling, past muted Georgian elegance and eclectic Victorian style, to 20th century modernity and contemporary living.
