Interesting little water birds which spend their entire life on water, even nesting on the lily leaves. Their large toes enable them to spread their weight and walk across the leaves and they also fly for short distances when necessary. There is a large population of them in Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory where this photograph was taken.

Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

This stylist cockily sticks the comb into her own hair, much like a pencil behind the ear, for when she needs to use it.
Out of reach and destined for failure.
About honeybee swarms.
Usually when the parent colony emits a reproductive swarm, the bees will gather together en masse on a nearby tree branch and remain in a cluster for a day or so while the scout bees fly out in search of a new home site. Occasionally, instead of moving on to a more suitable location the colony will commence comb building. Unfortunately these open air nests rarely survive.

Jeffrey Combs played Dr. Herbert West, the protagonist from the infamous "Re-Animator" films. I told him my favorite line: "You'll never get credit for my discovery, who's gonna believe a talking head? Get a job in a sideshow." The last part of the quote is what Jeffrey signed on my "Re-Animator Millennium Edition." This guy is so funny!

This frame was left on over winter. The bees used most of the darker fall honey and refilled the empty comb with the lighter spring honey.

This comb is really useful to get Shizandra's hair out of the brush of my carpet sweeper.
Gordon, an ex jail-bird, showing off his fully erect comb & looking magnificent!
________________________________
Quite a talker is Gordon & I might add a real 'poser' and he has taken to dropping in every day and posing thus: I had pre-focused and set-up 2 branches higher, so have cropped heavily to establish some balance; they display on landing - comb up and then straight down, two or three seconds tops! They will display again if another bird lands close.

Someones Mom beach combing in 1978. These are probably from Hawaii as many other pictures are in this box, and the coconuts are a clue too.
