Met this playful labrador male named "Buddy" on a walk. When I decide to shoot in monochrome, it usually is because the colors don't matter. In this case, they did matter, because his eyes were yellow and shone in the sunlight, giving him the look of a fantasy creature.

Still I changed it to monochrome, because I think his eyes don't lose their effect and I'm sure you can use a little bit of imagination. Hope you like it!

 

His owner told me that it isn't easy to convince strangers that Buddy is a nice dog. But he was very kind indeed, loved to play with Timmi and the owner's little toddler.

....so my friends and i decided to spend the day at the pool...

A group shot of these beautifully coloured & patterned waders (complete with photo-bombing Lapwing).

Quite a hard crop, so this image is a little noisy, but I rather like this early morning scene.

The black-capped tanager (Stilpnia heinei) is one of the many species of Neotropical bird in the family Thraupidae. It lives in mountains of Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela year-round.

 

The black-capped tanager was described in 1851, from a type specimen collected in Colombia. It is a member of the genus Stilpnia, in the tanager family, Thraupidae.

 

The genus name Stilpnia was proposed in 2016 instead of Tangara for T. heinei in order to match the phylogenetic relationships among tanagers.

This handsome male Black Redstart was photographed as he was busily collecting food for his youngsters. Both parents were working hard, flitting back & forth with a variety of insects, including beakfuls of these flying Ants.

Image of a very friendly Black Cockatoo, taken at Kuranda’s Bird world. This mature fella was so friendly that almost landed on my 400 mm lens and was so curious about what I was doing. Definitely a happy & funny bird.

A few weeks ago I discovered this ditch with ca. 15 Black Tern nests. It is a rare species in the Netherlands and the nests are constructed by the foundation that is owning this piece of land. Many nests have a little fence for keeping the young safe from falling into the water, or being predated by nasty creatures.

 

I went back three times, because it is such a treat to see how they are fed. The picture more a less tells it all, the speeding parent with a giant dragonfly, the young squeeking and opening their beaks, the parent dropping the food on the fly, and then off for another meal. This goes on 16 hours a day!

 

It is amazing how fast they grow. These chicks four days later started practicing flying, and another 4 days later they were gone.

In the mean time in other nests you could see them almost grow every minute. For sure I will return next year to see this spectacle again!

 

I think I took about 1000 pictures, many off them worth while showing. Enjoy.

A male of the species I found roosting early last Saturday morning amongst tall vegetation next to a moorland pool.

This pretty Ibis who doesn't breed in this rookery, drops in for a short visit.
