RKO_3664. Close-up shot of a beautiful Bittern. Actually, I knew she was somewhere nearby in the reeds, but I couldn't find her due her camouflage feathers. Surprisingly the Bittern left the reeds (very relaxed) just in front of me allowing for some quick close-up shots.

Farming under the shadow of a National Monument. Devils Tower in Wyoming has been one of my favorite places to visit for years. Always reminds me of the Steven Spielberg 1977 movie, Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
I do so love when wildlife chooses to come really close, and was thrilled to get such a great view of this beautiful red squirrel in Kilchrenan way back in 2013. However, it was slightly frustrating that it was so close that it wouldn't quite fit in the frame, and so I had to chop the tip of its lovely fluffy tail :(
Slender Ringtail Damselfly (Austrolestes analis)
Every now and then on of these will let me get in close.

This red winged blackbird took off near me, and headed toward another branch even closer. Zoom in for details of the water drops.
Edimburgo está lleno de Closes, lo que serían como callejones que dan acceso a las viviendas.
Este es uno de los más bonitos, El nombre le viene, porque aquí en el sglo XVI se encontraban las caballerizas reales del cercano palacio de Holyrood.
Gracias a todos por vuestras visitas y comentarios.

- Closing Time by Leonard Cohen:
Great question for many of us when it comes to the final crop
Yes I did get the entire Owl in frame (inc. wings)
& Yes he was extremely close
But also 'yes' we've uploaded countless 'fly-by' Short Eared Owl shots recently
So an unconventionally close crop to create something
different
Good idea?
Bad idea?
There's no right answer
In the end it was just 'my idea'
"Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you"
This is not exactly what this Golden-headed Cisticola was singing, but close... (-;
(Cisticola exilis)
Stranded in the spooky town
Stop lights are swaying and the phone lines are down
The floor is crackling cold
She took my heart, I think she took my soul
With the moon I run
Far from the carnage of the fiery sun
Driven by the strangle of vein
Showing no mercy, I'd do it again
Open up your eyes
You keep on crying
Baby I'll bleed you dry
Skies are blinking at me
I see a storm bubbling up from the sea
And it's coming closer
And it's coming closer
Your shimmy shook my boat
Leaving me stranded all in love on my own
Do you think of me?
Where am I now
Baby where do I sleep?
It feels so good but I am old
2000 years of chasing taking its toll
And it's coming closer
And it's coming closer
Image taken in Charnwood, Leicestershire. Very close encounter with one of the local Buzzards on my daily walk, still haven't found where they are nesting but must have passed close today.

(They Long to be) Close to You

Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of golden starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
(Girls in town)
Follow you
(Follow you)
All around
(All around)
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born the angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of golden starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
(Girls in town)
Follow you
(Follow you)
All around
(All around)
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
