Sacred Kingfisher (Todiramphus sanctus)

After a little work on the background I decided I would post a second image of the Kingfisher seen in the Werribee RIver Park last Tuesday.

A very alert Grey Heron hunting on the river Coquet. This Heron was on the weir very close to the main road and wasn't cocerned at all by my presence.

Black-shouldered Kite (Elanus axillaris) juvenile

A look back to this day in 2020. The three chicks were just out of the nest, this one had ventured further then the other two and was concentrating on getting its balance on this branch.

Just missed Caturday by one day ... Darn!

Cleo in the garden today. It was still dry but menacing clouds were gathering again and she heard thunder in the distance. Cleo isn't afraid of thunderstorms but she is afraid of getting wet and always tries to make sure to get indoors in time. :)

Another stray cat that lives near the house.

Focused on a possible prey...

This downy woodpecker was intent on the branch that he had chosen, letting me shoot away!

Hungry red fox diving for a meal on a bitterly cold day . No luck this time.

A white throated kingfisher intently watching the water body from a perch. He was so engrossed that I could approach very close to him for this uncropped shot.

Spotted in Bordeaux. He seemed so intent on his preparations! I was tempted....

A Grey Heron waits

Female Coastal Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) in pursuit of a Salmon. We are heading back to Alaska in July. So anxious to see and film one of our favorite species again. This is a re - edit of an image taken on our first salmon run trip in 2012. Absolutely love the action of Brown Bears fishing for salmon. Very exciting to watch these huge, powerful and FAST bears crashing though the water.

There was a blackbird on the tree

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES

ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK

Als je om je heen kijkt lijkt het wel of bijna alle rode katten katers zijn. Toch bestaan er wel rode poezen. Ze komen alleen veel minder voor en dit komt door de manier waarop rood genetisch doorgegeven wordt.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you look around you, it seems that almost all red cats are males. However, there are red cats. They are just much less common and this is due to the way red is passed on genetically.

We had a fun time with our great granddaughter Alice yesterday. She lives 12 hours ago so we treasure the times we get to see her. She had great fun playing with a few sunflowers! Thanks so much for your visits!

Bluetit nibbling on a piece of peanut in my garden. Clever the way it holds the peanut with both feet to stop it slipping on the branch.
