Scenes from Combs Lane in black and white

Looking up, as I climb up from the beach.

Chanced on this comb and thought it fitted the bill.

Imagine... A little wooden shack nestling amongst the sand dunes along a deserted stretch of beach. The only sounds, the gentle lapping of the waves on the shoreline. A morning spent beach combing, bringing back the precious finds and decorating the hut's one windowsill. An evening sitting in quiet contemplation with a good book and only a candle for lighting. A good meal, perhaps fish you've caught yourself and cooked over an open fire on the beach. Sleep, restful deep sleep, lulled by the sounds of the waves, dreaming of a little wooden hut by the sea... Imagine...

Close up of the frilly branchlets of comb tooth fungus. Might be hericium ramosum, or might be hericium coralloides. Either way, it is definitely of the genus Hericium, the comb tooth fungi.

During our stay in Bluff, Utah we explored both sides of Comb Ridge. We have barely scratched the surface of all there is to see in this area. Comb Ridge is an 80 mile long monocline running north and south. The west side is a cliff and the east side is steeply tilted and is fractured by many eroded canyons which often shelter ancestral Puebloan ruins. The name comes from the jagged appearance of the ridge which is similar in shape to a rooster comb.

 

Wilbur and I are new to drone flying. Hopefully we can figure out video editing too!

Comb Ridge in Southeastern Utah. It spans nearly 80 miles, so not truly infinite, but stunningly long visually.

 

This ridge is home to the only tritylodont fossils (mammal-like cynodonts) in North America. They are also found in other parts of the world.

 

Nearby the ridge, numerous traces of ancestral Puebloan culture can also be found.

Last throes of autumn for a few of trees on Combs Lane...very inconsistent this year...

A Macro Mondays submission on the topic "Everyday carry". This is something I carry every day - a comb! I have included my comb and its backup, to make a more interesting picture.

Combs Moss is a Kinder Scout-esque plateau just to the North of Buxton and like it’s bigger brother can be circumnavigated fully, with great views all around.

Comb Jellies - Ctenophoroa

 

These jellyfish look-alikes are not taxonomically related to jellies but we think these creatures are too interesting not to share! Their beautiful ovoid bodies are lined with thousands of tiny hair-like structures called cilia that they use to propel themselves through the water, often illuminating with bioluminescence. Even though these jellies may look similar to jellyfish, they have a major difference that is perhaps in our favor – they don’t sting! That’s right, these gentle jellies do not have nematocysts. Instead of using a powerful sting to capture their prey, they use colloblasts, which are sticky cells that essentially glue their prey to their tentacles. So, have no fear in handling one of these delicate creatures!

Comb-crested Jacana are such quirky-looking birds yet have subtly beautiful markings as well. We spent many hours photographing this species on our trip up North a few months back.

The Venus Comb is a marine gastropod of the genus Murex native of the coral reefs in the Indo-Pacific area. I aquired this shell in 1973 while serving in the Air Force stationed in Guam.

Comb crested jacana at Corroboree Billabong Northern Territory Australia. I think this is the best photo that i have taken of one of them.

... four brand new combs were hanging from the lintel - what a pity we couldn't have kept it like this as an observation hive. It was joke - but his wife hesitated for a moment as I showed her returning foragers doing their famous figure-of-eight dance. Out of the shower and into a bit of naked bee observation - not something you can often do! But he was not convinced. he wanted them out and I set about trying to transfer the colony to a hive ...
