I had to stop one more time and visit the bond waterfalls here in the U.P. of Michigan before my 8 hour drive home, just a stunning place to see and relax.

at sunset we came across a small group of young juvenile male Zebra...they were skittish and mischievous, I peered through the trees with my camera and caught these two in a special moment...

This image is just a humble but wholehearted tribute to the man I have admired most in my life. I took it just four days before he passed away at age 93. The metastasis in his brain had him unsettled and delirious during the last few days of his life, and holding his hand seemed to give him peace, at least for a short while. When I see this photo a hint of sorrow certainly hits me, but the overwhelming feeling is gratitude to this unaffected yet great man I had the privilege to call “dad” for more than fifty years.

Wikipedia: Khao Phing Kan or Ko Khao Phing Kan is an island in Thailand, in Phang Nga Bay northeast of Phuket. About 40 meters (130 ft) from the shores of Khao Phing Kan lies a 20-meter (66 ft) tall islet called Ko Ta Pu or Ko Tapu.

 

The islands are limestone karst towers and are a part of Ao Phang Nga National Park. Since 1974, when they were featured in the James Bond movie The Man with the Golden Gun, Khao Phing Kan and Ko Ta Pu – both separately and collectively – have been popularly called James Bond Island.

 

Before 1974, the island was a rarely visited indigenous area. However, it was chosen as one of the locations for the 1974 James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun as the hideout for Bond's antagonist, Francisco Scaramanga. After the movie release it turned into a popular tourist destination. Popularity and increased tourism left Khao Phing Kan with substantial litter.

 

In 1981, the island became the most famous part of the newly established Ao Phang Nga Marine National Park. Since 1998, it is forbidden for tourist boats to approach Ko Ta Pu. This measure aims to stop erosion of the limestone rocks on and near the islet that might eventually result in the island's collapse.

 

(As a footnote, I noticed trash receptacles placed around the island and no litter was observed.)

This pup's best chance is a strong bond with it's mom. This mama seems to have a very good one with her pup. She helped it in every way she could. I observed a lot of bonding activity including the pup riding on her back. You can see how difficult it is for the pup to stay on the log.

Atlantic Puffins engage in what is referred to as "beaking" which enhances social bonds.

I love bonding

I cherish the ones I have around me

 

Using my time is what I do

I don't buy stuff

I only give my time

And when I give my time

I never read newspapers or watch tv or am on my computer or my phone

Then I'm all there

For You

And for the new You

 

There will be more loved ones to cherish, to bond to

I look forward to that

But I'm happy with what I have

I never ask for more

 

Today I'm SuperEvaThrilled

Bonding time is on

A new one is arriving in my familiy

WooHoo

They are bonding via the spiders web, to the end.

Winter is around the corner 🙏

In the upper peninsula of Michigan from a few years ago.

I don’t know what they sell from this shed, but they give Gold Bond Stamps. Maybe they sell paddle boats or Coca Cola. Remember when we had those booklets to paste our Green Stamps and Gold Stamps into. You had to collect thousands to get anything good from the redemption store. I liked to paste them into the book when I was a kid. Where have all the good times gone ...LOL?

**We have been allowed to come home**

 

Yes, we have been evacuated again. This fire is closer to where we live. It was started when SCE shut the power off. Some guy who had not been maintaining his generator, switched it on: it exploded.

 

We're fine. The cats are fine.

I like colorful fall reflections on water and I am always on the lookout for them. When I saw these at Bond Falls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan I was amazed. The day before in the afternoon there was nothing like this, but at 9:00 am the next day the river was covered in color. I went to work and recorded many different images.

 

To make this I had to use a tripod, shoot at 100 ISO, have a slow shutter, and a small aperture. I spent most of my time shooting the little mini-falls that precede the dramatic bottom falls.

 

Camera settings: ISO 100, aperture f/13, shutter .3 sec, focal length 48 mm

 

colorful reflections

red, green, gold, orange, blue, yellow, etc.

RIP Sacha, tragically taken away from us today due to cancer aged 7

 

Sacha had been treated for bronchitis for 12 weeks at the Vets, but sadly

after a second opinion from another veterinary surgeon, was sent for an x-ray and found to have cancer of the lungs and brain.

 

Sacha was my daughters dog, we bought Sacha and Sheena together, to beautiful sisters, they have always had a strong bond from being puppies.

Bonding Ritual?

 

Even though I could not see a nest or chicks, I watched this pair of Black-necked Stilts very aggressively defending a small island at Bombay Hook NWR. If shorebirds landed close by one would fly off to chase them away, if a gull or Osprey got too close both would chase it away.

 

Besides this, on two or three occasions when there was no intruder, the pair flew up almost vertically close together, calling loudly then glided back to the island. I am speculating that this interesting behavior might perhaps be a bonding ritual.

PS Yesterday others spotted their chick on the island

 

Bond Falls is AMAZING - The first thing you see when approaching from the trail is the IMMENSE waterfalls which IS Bond Falls - but walking along the falls on the trail brings you back a bit further and it just seems to get better and better - I loved this particular spot as it depicts the beauty of the woods and the Waterfalls seeping through - and of course Autumn has arrived!!
