These whitetail deer wearing their new winter coats show how well they blend into the grays and early winter colors. Even when the snow comes they will seem to blend in as well.
The Highland (Scottish Gaelic: Bò Ghàidhealach; Scots: Hielan coo) is a Scottish breed of rustic beef cattle. It originated in the Scottish Highlands and the Western Islands of Scotland and has long horns and a long shaggy coat. It is a hardy breed, able to withstand the intemperate conditions in the region. The first herd-book dates from 1885; two types – a smaller island type, usually black, and a larger mainland type, usually dun – were registered as a single breed. It is reared primarily for beef, and has been exported to several other countries.
The first wave of the storm arrived in the wee hours of the morning with thunder, snow squalls, and continued high winds. The snow covered all except the steepest rock faces and the areas protected by the overhang of White Rim Sandstone. A layer of ice coated many of the rock surfaces as the snow melted initially and then froze. A brief respite in the storm with a few breaks in the clouds after sunrise allowed a view toward the Maze District of Canyonlands NP, including Ekker Butte in the center of the frame.
The winter storm of two days ago left structures and the shoreline coated with ice and snow. What a difference a day can make!
Deep inside a beech forest. Not a person for miles, nothing that you can see moving, yet the air is full of the sounds of movement.
The most beautiful feature of the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) is also the major reason why it is a vulnerable species. That coat has to be (along with the majestic Tiger) one of the most beautiful of any creature. And look at its wonderful big tail here. Almost as long as the body itself.
Tomorrow I'll have some photos of the cats in action, and their speed and agility surprised me. Such wonderful animals, lethal in their natural environment, but endangered by just one other creature - the most destructive of any species to have ever inhabited this planet - homo sapiens.
But the snow leopard was also fortunate to have one of the truly great naturalist writers of the 20th century document its plight. In 1978 Peter Matthiessen (1927-2014) wrote "The Snow Leopard", an account of his two-month search for the snow leopard with naturalist George Schaller in the Dolpo region on the Tibetan Plateau in the Himalayas. It was a book that moved me greatly, as did his more recent work on rare Japanese cranes, "The Birds of Heaven: Travels with Cranes" (2001). In 2017 Peter's son Alex recreated his quest for the snow leopard: www.theguardian.com/books/2018/apr/04/zen-following-fathe...

Lotus Flower. The stemen tips look like a school of small fish. The central core was such a delicate green.
Heading to Wells Gray I stopped on the side of the highway going through Spences Bridge to shoot Arthur Seat mountain covered in fresh snow. Happy Weekend !! Kris..

Le blanchon est le petit du phoque (loup-marin), également appelé « chiot » ou « veau ».
Le terme « blanchon » évoque l'épais pelage blanc qui sert au jeune phoque à se dissimuler sur la banquise ou les glaces marines les premiers mois de sa vie, où il demeure très vulnérable et dépendant. Le blanchon y est allaité pendant quelques semaines, jusqu'à ce qu'il se munisse d'un poil imperméable lui permettant de nager, coloré de différentes teintes de gris selon les espèces. Quand la mère chasse, le petit se retrouve régulièrement isolé sur la banquise, parfois pendant plusieurs heures. S'il sent une menace, il se fige dans l'espoir de passer inaperçu dans la neige - ce qui ne le protège en fait guère de l'excellent flair des ours polaires. S'il est attaqué par un prédateur ou un homme, la mère ne vient généralement pas le protéger, ce qui en fait une proie d'autant plus facile.
Par anthropomorphisme, on appelle les blanchons « bébés phoques », ces derniers jouissant d'un statut particulier dans l'opinion publique et les campagnes publicitaires animalistes.
A whitecoat is a newborn harp or grey seal with soft, white fur.
Newborn seals have yellow fur because of amniotic fluid, and are still wet. When the pup dries, it is called a yellowcoat. The amniotic stain fades and the fur turns white within a few days, and it gets the name whitecoat. First it's called a thin whitecoat, and when it becomes visibly fatter it is a fat whitecoat.[1]
Nursing lasts for about 12 days. Cows frequently return to their pups to suckle. While she is suckling, the mother does not eat—rather, she draws on her reserves of fatty blubber to produce the milk. Pups grow rapidly, at the end of nursing, most pups weigh 36 kg (80 lbs) or more. The mothers then leave their fully fed pups and join the bulls to mate. At this age of about 12 days, pups first become "greycoats",[2] as grey juvenile coloring grows under their white fur, then "ragged-jackets" when white fur begins to fall out in patches.

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
I liked the colourful coat on this horse in the fields beyond Loosely Row. Taken on my walk last week
The Bison on a local farm have heavy coats to deal with the snowfalls this winter. Today, my coat kept me very warm on our walk but my cheeks got truly rosy with the cold temps.
He seems to be a juvenile, curious about everything and lacks natural fear of other species.

Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. It is much appreciated.
What do you do when you and your daughter walk into a store and both fall in love with the same coat????
Wheal Coates is a historic tin mine located on the rugged cliffs of St Agnes in Cornwall, England. Established in the 18th century, it became renowned during the 19th century for its significant tin production. The mine's iconic engine house, perched dramatically above the Atlantic Ocean, is a striking remnant of Cornwall's rich mining heritage. Wheal Coates closed in 1914, but its preserved ruins, including the Towanroath Shaft engine house, are now a popular tourist attraction and part of the UNESCO Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape. The site offers stunning coastal views and insight into Cornwall's industrial past.
Taz losing her winter coat. How interesting the colour change.
This photo was taken mid-September and now Taz has completely lost her winter coat is is looking rather sleek in all black.
Joseph's Coat Moths found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia. They are also known as Painted Vine Moths.
The moths are day flying, with black, red, pale blue and yellow colours. Male and female look similar except the female is a bit larger and with larger white area on thorax.

The pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) is a moth of the subfamily Thaumetopoeinae in the family Notodontidae, known for the irritating hairs of its caterpillars, their processions, and the economic damage they cause in coniferous forests.
Toxicity :
Stinging hairs contain a toxic protein that is very irritating and inflammatory: thaumetopoein. It penetrates where the “harpoon” is planted: most often in the skin, but also in the eye, the nose, the mouth…
The hair breaks and the toxin released causes a reaction similar to that of nettle stings: red pimples in the form of blisters, red itchy patches, appear on the skin.
General symptoms may occur in the event of significant exposure. The immune system then goes into overdrive, which can lead to a sudden drop in blood pressure, discomfort or loss of consciousness.
Is there a risk for animals? With their noses at ground level, animals are exposed to contact with these stinging hairs, particularly dogs. They can get it on their coat, or even take a caterpillar in their mouth, which can cause very serious inflammatory reactions including necrosis of the tongue.
Un train dangereux ...
La processionnaire du pin (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) est un papillon de nuit de la sous-famille des Thaumetopoeinae de la famille des Notodontidae, connue pour les poils irritants de ses chenilles, leurs cortèges et les dégâts économiques qu'elles provoquent dans les forêts de conifères.
Toxicité
Les poils urticants contiennent une protéine toxique très irritante et inflammatoire : la thaumétopoéine. Elle pénètre là où le « harpon » s’est planté : le plus souvent dans la peau , mais aussi dans l’œil, le nez, la bouche…
Le poil se casse et la toxine libérée provoque une réaction semblable à celle des piqûres d’ortie : des boutons rouges sous forme de cloques, des plaques rouges qui grattent, apparaissent sur la peau.
Des symptômes généraux peuvent survenir en cas d’exposition importante. Le système immunitaire s’emballe alors, pouvant mener à une baisse brutale de la tension artérielle, un malaise ou une perte de connaissance.
Y a-t-il un risque pour les animaux ? La truffe au ras du sol, les animaux sont exposés au contact avec ces poils urticants, notamment les chiens. Ils peuvent en avoir sur le pelage, voire prendre une chenille dans leur gueule, ce qui peut provoquer des réactions inflammatoires très graves jusqu’à une nécrose de la langue.

A frosty start to the day had the American Goldfinches all wearing their fluffy down coats, and looking very adorable. This male still shows some faint traces of his brilliant summer plumage and trademark black cap
