Chalk-browed Mockingbird is a mimic like other Mockingbirds, indicative of its intelligence. The individual in this image had to deploy every bit of that resourcefulness, since (as can be seen in a close look) it has lost its left foot. Its adaptability is illustrated by the setting of this photograph, which was a rocky beach on the shores of Guanabara Bay near the international airport in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This species is found only in South America, but is widespread in the eastern part of the continent from Brazil south of the Amazon Basin down to central Argentina.

A lovely male Chalk-hill Blue enjoying a break in the clouds at Rough Bank. They really are one of my favourites and it does feel like I've missed something if I don't catch up with some at least once in the summer.

This is a pile of Crayola chalk that's been in a nearby driveway for many weeks, seen in a 100-frame focus stack.
This is a close-up photo of coloured chalk markings on a sidewalk. The colours looked even more vivid as it had just rained.
This is one of many Chalk-browed Mockingbirds we encountered during our Pantanal trip this month. They seemed to be pretty curious birds much like our Northern Mockingbirds here at home.

The line of hills goes for quite some way, the hill with the lights on is called Truliegh hill, during WW2 it was a radar station and later an early warning station during the cold war, now it is a telephone mast, the lights are a warning to aircraft who use Shoreham airport. Further along is Cissbury ring another high point which is a summer sunset spot I like to go to.
This spot is called the Devils dyke and affords views over a large part of Sussex. The little Hamlet below is called Edburton .
It was so much fun watching talented professional chalk artists, amateurs & art enthusiasts bring pieces to life!
You left me here, like a chalk outline on the sidewalk
waiting for the rain to wash away... Wash away. You keep coming back to the scene of the crime but the dead can't speak and there's nothing left to say anyway... All you left behind. Is a chalk outline.

Chalk is a form of limestone. It forms deep underwater. It is white, soft, porous, and among the many possible applications, it is used for writing on a blackboard. Sidewalk art uses a different kind of chalk. It is commonly made of gypsum and is available in several colors. The chalks in my picture are Sidewalk chalks. They are ¾” wide and come in very lovely colors.
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments
