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.

A wall brown butterfly basking on a footpath at the summit of Leckhampton Hill near Cheltenham. This shot was taken about eight years ago with an old Canon Powershot A400 compact camera. I haven't seen a wall brown butterfly at this site for several years now.

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!
Detail shot of the beautiful waterfalls at Healey Dell near Rochdale. Taken with my new Rx100 that's replaced all my camera gear :D
We have a lot of earth works going on at our property, and I am finding so many fascinating elements to document. This is an attachment for the excavator and a big pile of clay material we’re holding onto so that we can hopefully have enough to line a small dam!!
Del 19 al 21 de abril se celebró en Zgz la tercera edición de las “Fiestas Goyescas” en torno a la figura de Goya.
”Esos niños que juegan a soldados
prostituido el hombro por el arma,
esa torre caída y el silencio
pensativo de su campana;
esos redondos ojos inocentes
abiertos ante luces nacaradas
¿han de cerrarse un día ante las luces
pavorosas de la batalla?
Mientras están jugando, en ese instante
tan sin culpa, tan puro, la amenaza
culpable, impura, acecha entre sus juegos
¡tristes soldados de mañana!”
Muchachos jugando a soldados (de Nuevos poemas a Goya) - Ildefonso Manuel Gil

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.
Ένα από τα σημαντικότερα γεφύρια της περιοχής του Ασπροποτάμου, είναι αυτό του Μίχου λίγο έξω από την Ανθούσα Τρικάλων. Είναι δίτοξο με άνοιγμα μεγάλου τόξου 12,50μ και μικρότερου τόξου 3,70μ. Δεν υπάρχουν αναφορές για το πότε κτίστηκε ούτε φέρει κτητορική επιγραφή. Βρίσκεται λίγα μέτρα κάτω από το επίπεδο του δρόμου που οδηγεί στους Καλαρρύτες, λίγο πριν το μοναστήρι της Παναγίας Γαλακτοτροφούσας στα αριστερά.
To create the impression of time travel I have not used a zoom blur (impossible with the Panasonic DMC-TZ40). This picture is the result of processing multiple exposures (none of which in themselves are blurred images). I hope we can imagine what it was like at Cape Bruny back in 1836.
Macro Monday's and the theme of "Pins".
A straightforward photo this week. I decided to focus on the pins of a Compact Flash card reader, It was slightly easier than using my Nikon D200 as a subject where the pins are quite recessed inside the camera. The card reader also has a blue light that illuminates when it is plugged in.
Compact flash cards are the reason I mainly use a lead to connect the camera too my laptop. I had heard stories when I first got my Nikon D70 of the possibility of pins getting bent in the CF card port so to this day I am still in the habit of using a lead.

To everyone that has left a comment or has graced the photo by faving it, thank you, thank you, thank you...
A woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae. There are over three hundred species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwestern Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Roses have acquired cultural significance in many societies. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. R_8963
Unedited version of the moon last night, is it the furthest reached for a compact, probably but of course it's all pointless.

This one is from Rose Garden on roof of Molde Town Hall
Most of my photographs are captured in and around the city of Molde. Molde is the second largest city in the county of Møre og Romsdal, lies along the shores of the Romsdalsfjord in Western Norway.
The official, and also most common, nickname for Molde is The City of Roses or Rose City.
As you explore the city, you will see why it was given its nickname. In the city center you will find rose gardens, parks, statues, and murals all paying homage to the iconic flower. Even the town hall roof has a rose garden and is accessible to all! Decorative gardening has been popular in Molde for many generations and adds to the city’s beauty and charm.
"The town's largest collection of roses is to be found at the Town Hall roof, but the magnificent roses in the Alexandra Park is also worth your time.
