Life is but a brief journey through time. The Awe of the Grand Canyon makes us pause and ponder the real scale of time. A true beast of nature, the climate, has had it up’s and Downs: Hot periods, Cold periods, Glaciers to Floods, Tropics to Mountains, and, Today, here sets one of the great testaments to those violent periods in the evolution of Earth.

 

Mans existence is but a blink in the vast time scale of Earth. And yet, from her violent past, she leaves us this great spectacle so we may glimpse her troubled past.

....from a walk through Oxley Creek Common. Oxley Creek Common is home to a remarkable variety of birds. An experienced observer can find as many as 70 species in one hour of observation during the spring about 10% of all Australia's bird species and several times the diversity one could find walking the suburbs. In the past eleven years over 190 species have been recorded on the Common. (Source: University of Queensland)

 

Australasian Pipit

Scientific Name: Anthus novaeseelandiae

Description: The Australasian Pipit is a well-camoflaged brown ground-dwelling bird. It has darker brown streaks above, and has pale creamy white stripes on the eyebrows and below the cheeks. The underparts are creamy white, spotted and streaked dark on the breast. The wings and tail are dark brown, with the outermost tail feathers white. The eye is brown and the bill and feet are pale pink-grey. Seen on the ground in open country, this species often wags its tail up and down while foraging. It was previously called Richard's Pipit.

Similar species: The Australasian Pipit resembles the introduced Skylark, Alauda arvensis, and is adapted to a similar ecological niche, with both species being well-camoflaged birds that forage on the ground. The Australasian Pipit lacks the Skylark's small crest and has more creamy white underparts and eyebrows.

Distribution: The Australasian Pipit is found across Australia. It is also found in New Guinea, New Zealand, as well as being widespread across Africa and Asia.

Habitat: Australasian Pipits are found in open country, in a range of habitat types from wet heaths to dry shrublands and open woodland clearings.

Seasonal movements: Some altitudinal migration in winter, and Tasmanian birds move to the mainland.

Feeding: Australasian Pipits feed on the ground on insects and their larvae, as well as seeds. They forage in a jerky, darting motion, stopping to perch on low stones or shrubs, wagging their tails up and down.

Breeding: Australasian Pipits form breeding pairs after an elaborate courtship ritual, with males making swooping dives from a height, accompanied by a sweet trilling song. The nest is a depression in the ground, sometimes sheltered by a grass tussock, stone or piece of wood, and lined with grasses and hairs. The female incubates the eggs and feeds the young.

Minimum Size: 16cm

Maximum Size: 18cm

Average size: 17cm

Average weight: 26g

This is just the wider angle view of taken less than a minute from a previous post but the mist was changing so fast it looked a bit different.

إنهُ الحزن .. عَبر من جانبي بعدما قال : لا سعادةَ بلا حزن أردتُ التحدثَ معه ، أخذتُ ألتفتُ يمنةً ويسرة فلم أراه :"(

أيقنتُ أنه رحل بعدما أهداني جزءً مما يحمل من الأحزان أخذتُ أفكر بما قال ، لو أن حياتنا بلا أحزان لما رأينا السعادة أبدا ..♡ * آلـ منيرة

‘Rock Stars'. Back-to-black and Rave-on...a close up study of a pair of breeding Ravens owning their surroundings on a bright summers afternoon.

 

Many thanks for visiting my Flickr pages...Your visits, interest, comments and kindness to 'fave' my photos is very much appreciated, Steve.

 

Raven Notes:

 

Edgar Allan Poe knew what he was doing when he used the Raven instead of some other bird to croak out “nevermore” in his famous poem. The Raven has long been associated with death and dark omens, but the real bird is somewhat of a mystery. Unlike its smaller cousin the crow, not a lot has been written about this remarkable bird.

 

Here are 10 fascinating facts about Ravens.

 

1. Ravens are one of the smartest animals.

When it comes to intelligence, these birds rate up there with chimpanzees and dolphins. In one logic test, the Raven had to get a hanging piece of food by pulling up a bit of the string, anchoring it with its claw, and repeating until the food was in reach. Many Ravens got the food on the first try, some within 30 seconds. In the wild, Ravens have pushed rocks on people to keep them from climbing to their nests, stolen fish by pulling a fishermen’s line out of ice holes, and played dead beside a beaver carcass to scare other Ravens away from a delicious feast.

 

If a Raven knows another Raven is watching it hide its food, it will pretend to put the food in one place while really hiding it in another. Since the other Ravens are smart too, this only works sometimes.

 

2. Ravens can imitate human speech.

 

In captivity, Ravens can learn to talk better than some parrots. They also mimic other noises, like car engines, toilets flushing, and animal and birdcalls. Ravens have been known to imitate wolves or foxes to attract them to carcasses that the Raven isn’t capable of breaking open. When the wolf is done eating, the Raven gets the leftovers.

 

3. Europeans often saw Ravens as evil in disguise.

Many European cultures took one look at this large black bird with an intense gaze and thought it was evil in the flesh … er, feather. In France, people believed Ravens were the souls of wicked priests, while crows were wicked nuns. In Germany, Ravens were the incarnation of damned souls or sometimes Satan himself. In Sweden, Ravens that croaked at night were thought to be the souls of murdered people who didn’t have proper Christian burials. And in Denmark, people believed that night Ravens were exorcized spirits, and you’d better not look up at them in case there was a hole in the bird’s wing, because you might look through the hole and turn into a Raven yourself.

 

4. Ravens have been featured in many myths.

Cultures from Tibet to Greece have seen the Raven as a messenger for the gods. Celtic goddesses of warfare often took the form of Ravens during battles. The Viking god, Odin, had two Ravens, Hugin (thought) and Munin (memory), which flew around the world every day and reported back to Odin every night about what they saw. The Chinese said Ravens caused bad weather in the forests to warn people that the gods were going to pass by. And some Native American tribes worshipped the Raven as a deity in and of itself. Called simply Raven, he is described as a sly trickster who is involved in the creation of the world.

 

5. Ravens are extremely playful.

 

The Native Americans weren’t far off about the Raven’s mischievous nature. They have been observed in Alaska and Canada using snow-covered roofs as slides. In Maine, they have been seen rolling down snowy hills. They often play keep-away with other animals like wolves, otters, and dogs. Ravens even make toys—a rare animal behaviour—by using sticks, pinecones, golf balls, or rocks to play with each other or by themselves. And sometimes they just taunt or mock other creatures because it’s funny.

 

6. Ravens do weird things with ants.

They lie in anthills and roll around so the ants swarm on them, or they chew the ants up and rub their guts on their feathers. The scientific name for this is called “anting.” Songbirds, crows, and jays do it too. The behaviour is not well understood; theories range from the ants acting as an insecticide and fungicide for the bird to ant secretion soothing a moulting bird’s skin to the whole performance being a mild addiction. One thing seems clear, though: anting feels great if you’re a bird.

 

7. Ravens use “hand” gestures.

It turns out that Ravens make “very sophisticated nonvocal signals,” according to researchers. In other words, they gesture to communicate. A study in Austria found that Ravens point with their beaks to indicate an object to another bird, just as we do with our fingers. They also hold up an object to get another bird’s attention. This is the first time researchers have observed naturally occurring gestures in any animal other than primates.

 

8. Ravens are adaptable.

Evolutionarily speaking, the deck is stacked in the Raven’s favour. They can live in a variety of habitats, from snow to desert to mountains to forests. They are scavengers with a huge diet that includes fish, meat, seeds, fruit, carrion, and garbage. They are not above tricking animals out of their food—one Raven will distract the other animal, for example, and the other will steal its food. They have few predators and live a long time: 17 years in the wild and up to 40 years in captivity.

 

9. Ravens show empathy for each other.

Despite their mischievous nature, Ravens seem capable of feeling empathy. When a Raven’s friend loses in a fight, they will seem to console the losing bird. They also remember birds they like and will respond in a friendly way to certain birds for at least three years after seeing them. (They also respond negatively to enemies and suspiciously to strange Ravens.) Although a flock of Ravens is called an “unkindness,” the birds appear to be anything but.

 

10. Ravens roam around in teenage gangs.

Ravens mate for life and live in pairs in a fixed territory. When their children reach adolescence, they leave home and join gangs, like every human mother’s worst nightmare. These flocks of young birds live and eat together until they mate and pair off. Interestingly, living among teenagers seems to be stressful for the Raven. Scientists have found higher levels of stress hormones in teenage Raven droppings than in the droppings of mated adults. It’s never easy being a teenage rebel.
