Milkweed is the host plant for the Monarch Butterfly. The adult butterflies lay eggs on the milkweed and the caterpillars eat the leaves. This picture was taken in a field full of ripe seed pods releasing their fluffy seed, which disperse by riding the wind. This photo is one of 4 posted.

Masked Lapwing
Scientific Name: Vanellus miles
Description: Masked Lapwings are large, ground-dwelling birds that are closely related to the waders. The Masked Lapwing is mainly white below, with brown wings and back and a black crown. Birds have large yellow wattles covering the face, and are equipped with a thorny spur that projects from the wrist on each wing. The spur is yellow with a black tip. The Masked Lapwing has two subspecies resident in Australia. The southern subspecies has black on the hind neck and sides of breast, and has smaller facial wattles. Northern birds are smaller, without the partial black collar, but have a much larger wattle, which covers most of the side of the face. The sexes are similar in both subspecies, although the male tends to have a larger spur. Young Masked Lapwings are similar to the adult birds, but may have a darker back. The wing spur and facial wattles are either absent or smaller in size. The southern subspecies is also known as the Spur-winged Plover.
Similar species: The Banded Lapwing, V. tricolor, is much smaller (25 cm to 29 cm). It has a mostly black head and upper breast, with a distinct white eyestripe and bib. It also has a distinctive red patch at the base of the bill.
Distribution: The Masked Lapwing is common throughout northern, central and eastern Australia. Masked Lapwings are also found in Indonesia, New Guinea, New Caledonia and New Zealand. The New Zealand and New Caledonian populations have been formed from birds that have flown there from Australia.
Habitat: The Masked Lapwing inhabits marshes, mudflats, beaches and grasslands. It is often seen in urban areas. Where this bird is used to human presence, it may tolerate close proximity; otherwise it is very wary of people, and seldom allows close approach.
Feeding: Masked Lapwings feed on insects and their larvae, and earthworms. Most food is obtained from just below the surface of the ground, but some may also be taken above the surface. Birds are normally seen feeding alone, in pairs or in small groups.
Breeding: Masked Lapwings may breed when conditions are suitable. Both sexes share the building of the nest, which is a simple scrape in the ground away from ground cover. This nest is often placed in inappropriate locations, such as school playing fields or the roofs of buildings. Both sexes also incubate the eggs and care for the young birds. The young birds are born with a full covering of down and are able to leave the nest and feed themselves a few hours after hatching.
The Masked Lapwing is notorious for its defence of its nesting site. This is particularly the case after the chicks have hatched. Adults will dive on intruders, or act as though they have a broken wing in an attempt to lure the intruder away from the nest.
Minimum Size: 33cm
Maximum Size: 38cm
Average size: 36cm
Breeding season: At any time of the year
Clutch Size: 3 to 5

Little Pied Cormorant
Scientific Name: melanoleucos Phalacrocorax
Identification: The Little Pied Cormorant is entirely black above and white below. The face is dusky and, in adult birds, the white of the underside extends to above the eye. Immature birds resemble the adults except there is no white above the eye.
Size range: 50 cm to 66 cm
Similar Species: Pied Cormorant
Distribution: The Little Pied Cormorant is found throughout Australia.
Habitat: The Little Pied Cormorant is at home in either fresh or salt water. It is often seen in large flocks on open waterways and on the coast, especially where large numbers of fish are present. On inland streams and dams, however, it is often solitary. The Little Pied Cormorant mixes readily with the similarly sized Little Black Cormorant, P. sulcirostris.
Feeding and Diet: Little Pied Cormorants feed on a wide variety of aquatic animals, from insects to fish. On inland streams and dams they turn to their most favoured food: yabbies (freshwater crayfish). These are caught by deep underwater dives with both feet kicking outward in unison. Other crustaceans are also taken, with shrimps being a large part of their diet in winter months.
Mating and reproduction: Little Pied Cormorants breed either in colonies or, less commonly, in single pairs. The nest is a flat platform of sticks, lined with green leaves and is usually placed in a tree. Both adults share in egg incubation and care of the young. Clutch size: 3 to 4

Splendid Fairy-wren
Scientific Name: Malurus splendens
Description: The breeding plumage of the male is predominantly blue, varying from cobalt-blue in the east of its range to violet-blue in the west.It has black bands at the base of the tail (absent in the violet-blue birds), across the breast and from the beak, through the eyes to join a band across the back of its neck. Its crown and cheek patches are paler blue. Wings and long tail are brown with a blue wash. His beak is black and his legs and feet are brown-grey. In non-breeding plumage, called eclipse, he is very similar to the female, being pale brown above and buff to white underneath although he retains the blue wash on wings and tail. The female does not have the blue wash on her wings, but does have a reddish-tan line from beak to eye that extends into a ring around her eye. Her beak is reddish-tan.
Similar species: The male in breeding plumage is quite distinct but in eclipse he is similar to the males of other fairy-wrens in eclipse. A faint wash of blue on male wings during eclipse distinguishes this species from others. The female is similar to females of other fairy-wren species, but has a bluer tail than most.
Distribution: These birds are widely distributed across Australia in two areas. One area is from about Shark Bay south through WA, through SA except the coast to about the Flinders Ranges and the southern and central parts of NT. The eastern area include SA from the Flinders Ranges, the far north-western tip of Vic, NSW east to about Moree and Balranald and south central Qld.
Habitat: These birds live in arid to semi-arid areas, in mostly dense shrublands or woodlands of acacia, and mallee eucalypt with dense shrubs.
Seasonal movements: These birds are mostly sedentary, defending a territory all year, but the younger females may disperse to another territory. In some areas they are semi-nomadic, depending on local conditions.
Feeding: Like most of the fairy-wrens, Splendid Fairy-wrens eat mostly insects and forage on both the ground and in shrubs. They live in groups which forage together.
Breeding: The Splendid Fairy-wren female builds an oval domed nest of dry grass, strips of bark and rootlets, with an entrance two thirds of the way up one side. The female is the only member of the group to incubate the eggs, but all members of the group feed the chicks.
Calls: A rapid series of slightly metallic, high-pitched pips that blend into an "undulating" call.
Minimum Size: 12cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 13cm
Average weight: 9g
Breeding season: mostly September-December, but can extend from August to April
Clutch Size: 2 to 4, mostly 3
Incubation: 15 days
Nestling Period: 11 days

Here is a (slightly) updated look at my Tantive IV MOC. The model is just shy of 10k pieces and is somewhere around 3 feet long in real life. The original was designed by me some years ago, and I am intending to do a ground-up redesign soon since a lot of useful pieces have been introduced. As for instructions, since I get a lot of comments about them, I can't in good conscience release instructions for a model I haven't built in real life. While the internal structure is similar to the Saturn IV set (actually that's what inspired the model, see the neck), I can't 100% guarantee the stability until I build it in real life. At 10k pieces, it's not really on the immediate horizon to be built either. Basically there may be instructions eventually but no time soon. As for scale the model is nowhere near minifigure scale, but considerably bigger than play-scale so we will call it "plus scale" or something. Oh and yes, you guys may prefer a dark red color instead of the standard red, but not only do the macaroni curved corner pieces not exist in dark red, from what I can tell the brighter red is more accurate according to A New Hope. I hope you enjoy and if there are any improvements you guys would like to see for the version 2 let me know!

Thanks so much Bo for allowing me once more to play with your wonderful shot. This time it's Winter Warmer.

Dear Dorota.
I hope this goes some way into warming you up. Living in such cold conditions (-18C) in Warsaw, Poland, you need help. Just hold the orb in your hands. :-)) LOL
* Comments I prefer to awards. Invitations are very nice and appreciated too(!), but in the end it's your words that mean more to me.*

Comment on EXPLORE below, but first...Yes, another palm leaf abstract from Costa Rica, this one I tweaked the colors to be less green. Amazing how nature can be so orderly when you look closely, even though when you look casually it can seem haphazard. Going to post and run, will try and get back later, have been slightly bogged down.
I would like to make the comment that it now has been over 6 months since a post of mine has explored, since that time I have gotten all manner of comments, views and faves and no explore. I have also given all manner of comments and faves and notes, and each time because I wanted to, each one written (typed) by fingers, letter by letter, each fave a knowing click. If you are a contact of mine, it is because I like you and your work and I enjoy commenting and faving. So, I finally have come to the conclusion that my lack of exploring is obviously because I suck. (Joking, I have far to big an ego to believe that)
Seriously, if exploring isn’t about quality and it isn’t about activity then what it is it about? What does it mean? What does it represent? By the way, before anyone offers any “here is how you explore” advice understand I don’t want it, I am fairly certain that over the past six months I have had posts that followed the “exploring religion” to a tee, and still nothing. Plus I don’t want to follow a religion I just want to participate in Flickr robustly, which anyone can tell by the amount of comments I get and give I do robustly participate in it and enjoy it.
As far as I can tell Explore is a giveaway by Flickr to some users and not to others. The giveaway is that a lot of people see your images, which is one of the reasons we all post here isn’t it? Seems wrong to me. So there you have it, had to say it.
Peace out.

Yellowstone National Park, WY
Canon 1V HS, Fuji Velvia 100
Thanks for all the comments. I really didn't expect this one to get as much attention as it has received. What can I say, Yellowstone is really one of the few places on earth that was made to be captured with Velvia :). This shot was taken about six years ago, and I have since grown to favor Provia and Astia over Velvia for most of my color photography. But I feel I have to use Velvia here, I mean it actually does a great job with the colors. People that have been to Yellowstone will agree when I say that these colors are not actually punched up, the colors are really that vibrant. I can't wait to go back and shoot these same scenes with the large format camera and some Velvia 50. For those that have not been to Yellowstone & the Grand Tetons, I highly recommend that you plan a trip. Give yourself as much time as you can, 2-3 weeks, and you will have barely scratched the surface. Pack some Velvia and Provia with you, as you'll be glad you did. Stay long enough and you might fall in love with the place.
