Small, compact duck with a long, fan-shaped tail, often held sticking up out of water. Breeding males have a chestnut body, black cap, white cheek, and baby-blue bill. Winter males have a brown body, black cap and white cheek. Females and immature males are brown overall with a dark cap and dark line through the cheek. Often in tight groups bobbing like corks on ponds and bays. Dives to forage on aquatic invertebrates. Not often seen flying. (eBird)

Here is the handsome Ruddy Duck (and he knows it), looking for a conquest.
John E. Poole Wetland, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada. June 2022.
También llamada Hindú Rope, tiene las hojas retorcidas como arrugadas, y cuelgan como grandes trenzas compactas y pesadas...de alllà el nombre. las flores son pequeñas pero forman una perfecta pelotita de ping pong! Las flores son tres milÃmetros menores que la carnosa común .
Fue publicda en "The Hoyan" en 1990.
Lamentablemente, luego de diez años, la he perdido este invierno. Ahora, me ha quedado un esqueje y a comenzar otra vez .
La fotografÃa la ha tomado mi hijo que ya tiene su planta bastante grandecita , es hija de la que he perdido!

For Macro Mondays - Hole
I was struggling to come up with a hole for this week, out of time, then this morning I had to burn a CD so decided to use that.
Happy Macro Monday!
Amazing how the big the wings of the brown Pelican can fold down into a very compact flying torpedo. The brown pelican can dive head first into water to catch a meal. And seagulls often try to steal their catch out. I hope to catch the seagull getting away with the theft on camera soon.

To everyone that has left a comment or has graced the photo by faving it, thank you, thank you, thank you...
There have been quite a few new benches installed at the John F Kennedy arboretum, all this same design; really dark stained wood & just about long enough for 2 people to sit side by side. Perhaps they will be solo benches in the event of another covid type social distancing event? Who knows what the thinking was behind making them so compact & bijou.
Anyway, the colourful forsythia bushes & variety of distant trees caught my eye, so I took a quick iPhone shot HTmT!
Photo 31/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or chairs. Catching up with uploading my 100x as I was (am) way behind. I promise to intersperse some non-bench photos too.

An amazingly small compact 35mm film camera - about 9.5cm in length. This example was made in 1973-74 and is in really lovely condition.
Queen Elizabeth II used this same camera, except hers was a gold edition!
I read that these little mechanical marvels have over 520 parts to them!
There is no focus through the viewfinder or lens and focus is achieved by setting a distance on the lens or by zone focusing, something I'm not familiar with so should be interesting!
