Today's fun fact - Black Swans were presumed not to exist because there was only ever records of white ones. Then when Europeans discovered they did in fact exist, in WA Australia, the phrase "black swan" was coined. The Black Swan by scholar Nassim Taleb, was ranked by the Sunday Times one of the 12 most influential books since World War II. Taleb's black swan theory states that dramatic unexpected events matter more to history than regular happenings.

 

Bit simpler for me, I just like to photograph them on the local lake. Especially at sunset. Like little floating silhouettes. (bit of an older pic, revisiting some unloved pics from my Flickr exile years)

Nessebar, Bulgaria

Black fronted dotterels also known as black fronted plovers, Elseyornis melanops, taken in the Kimberley, Western Australia.

 

They typically feed in freshwater wetlands.

 

This pair were not at all afraid of people which made them wonderful photographic subjects.

Black-winged Stilt, Spain

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.

Les châteaux de la Loire - Chenonceau

A black man has a lot to be scared of,....still. I'm very white myself. This Chameleon is saying a prayer as he walks through the wrong neighbourhood and being observed very intensly. It's the end of the branch.

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.

Hungary - June 2017.

long black train

josh turner

 

There's a long black train

Coming down the line

Feeding off the souls that are lost and crying

Rails of sin only evil remains

Watch out brother for that long black train

Look to the heavens

You can look to the skies

You can find redemption

Staring back into your eyes

There is protection and there's peace the same

Burnin' your ticket for that long black train

'Cause there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

There's an engineer on that long black train

Making you wonder if your ride is worth the pain

He's just a waitin' on your heart to say

Let me ride on that long black train

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

Well I can hear the whistle from a mile away

It sounds so good

But I must stay away

That train is a beauty making everybody stare

But its only destination is the middle of nowhere

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

I said cling to the father and his holy name and don't go ridin' on that black train

Yes watch out brother for that long black train

That devil's a drivin' that long black train

Low tide on the River Alde near Snape in Suffolk, UK. An outstanding spot for wading birds. Here is a black-tailed godwit posing in the muck and early morning light.
