We conducted the annual NABA Butterfly Count for the Lake Meyer circle today. Similar to the more familiar Audubon Christmas Bird Count, the butterfly count takes place around the Fourth of July in a 15 mile diameter circle, centered here around Lake Meyer Park. Monarchs were very scarce today. In fact we only counted two within the 15 mile circular boundary. At that rate, monarchs are on the fast track to extinction.
This male Gadwall looks like he’s practising his conducting skills!
Many thanks to all who take the time to view, comment or fave my images!

I went to Mountain Run Lake again yesterday afternoon in the hopes of getting a shot of an Eagle, but no success yet again, despite the fact I had "Big Bertha" (100-400) on the camera. By the time they showed up it was too late in the day for a descent shot. But these ducks are always entertaining!

Land is in short supply in Hong Kong, and land reclamation has been conducted there since the mid-19th century.
Hong Kong Disneyland Resort, Hong Kong International Airport, and its predecessor, Kai Tak Airport, were all built on reclaimed land.
In addition, as the city expands, new towns in different decades were mostly built on reclaimed land, such as Tuen Mun, Tai Po, Shatin, Ma On Shan, West Kowloon, Kwun Tong and Tseung Kwan O.
Much reclamation has taken place in prime locations on the waterfront on both sides of Victoria Harbour. This has raised environmental issues of the protection of the harbour which was once the source of prosperity of Hong Kong, traffic congestion in the Central district.
香港主要依賴填海來擴展土地。香港山多平地少，逼使香港政府以移山填海方式擴展土地。截至2002年，香港的填海土地已超過67平方公里，佔香港總面積超過6.5%。而填海範圍一般會在維多利亞港之內，但亦有不少填海工程於香港其他海域進行。
現時香港有3個填海工程進行中或暫停檢討中，包括中環及灣仔填海計劃、竹篙灣填海工程等。香港一百多年來的填海工程，深深影響著香港的發展。填海使一些島嶼連接陸地，亦使一些海灣的面積縮少甚至消失。

Street photography is photography conducted for art or inquiry that features unmediated chance encounters and random incidents within public places. It usually has the aim of capturing images at a decisive or poignant moment by careful framing and timing. Street photography overlaps widely with candid photography, although the latter can also be used in other settings, such as portrait photography and event photography.
Street photography does not necessitate the presence of a street or even the urban environment. Though people usually feature directly, street photography might be absent of people and can be of an object or environment where the image projects a decidedly human character in facsimile or aesthetic.
The photographer is an armed version of the solitary walker reconnoitering, stalking, cruising the urban inferno, the voyeuristic stroller who discovers the city as a landscape of voluptuous extremes. Adept of the joys of watching, connoisseur of empathy, the flâneur finds the world "picturesque".
Susan Sontag, 1977
Street photography can focus on people and their behavior in public. In this respect, the street photographer is similar to social documentary photographers or photojournalists who also work in public places, but with the aim of capturing newsworthy events. Any of these photographers' images may capture people and property visible within or from public places, which often entails navigating ethical issues and laws of privacy, security, and property.
Much of what is regarded, stylistically and subjectively, as definitive street photography was made in the era spanning the end of the 19th century through to the late 1970s, a period which saw the emergence of portable cameras that enabled candid photography in public places.
The "Temple of Janus" is a cultic structure of Romano-Celtic design located in Autun, Saône-et-Loire, France, to the North-West of the ancient city of Augustodunum.
The temple lies in the centre of a vast sanctuary, whose extent and complexity was revealed by excavations conducted from 2013 to 2016, on a site whose history goes back to Neolithic times, and which experienced an important phase of monumental constructions in the 1st Century AD. The temple was abandoned at the onset of the Early Middle Ages, and its structures were later reused in the fashioning of a Medieval defensive work. The temple has retained two sides of its square cella, at a height of over 20 metres, as well as vestiges of its ambulatory and side structure foundations. The temple's supposed dedication to the Roman god Janus is not based on any archaeological or historic fact, and the deity that was venerated in the temple is unknown.
The Temple of Janus was included on the first list of protected historical French monuments, established in 1840. (Wikipedia)

BAN CHAM KREM, Kingdom of Thailand –A Royal Thai Marine establishes security by setting up the cordoned off area that the simulated IED was found during training. Other U.S. Marines from Amphibious Assault Company, Combat Assault Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force and Thais search and provide cover. This is the third step in the five “C” method from the counter IED class they received. The Royal Thai Marines and U.S. Marines are participating in multiple training events as part of Exercise Cobra Gold 2012. Exercise Cobra Gold is a recurring multinational and multiservice exercise co-hosted by the Kingdom of Thailand and the U.S. designed to advance regional security by training as a multinational force from nations sharing common goals and security commitments in the Asia-Pacific region.

March Point. Padilla Bay/Fidalgo Bay.
"Hosting one of the largest Great Blue Heron colonies in Western North America, this island of forest sits between Padilla and Fidalgo Bays. Vera and Bud Kinney donated this property to Skagit Land Trust in 1994 to protect the nesting herons. With the cooperation of neighboring landowners, each year, Skagit Land Trust conducts a nest count in the heronry. 680 heron nests were counted in 2019 in this relatively small area, which provides easy access to feeding grounds for the herons. Unfortunately, the Trust does not have access to all neighboring property, and therefore some heron nests are uncounted. The overall trend, however, shows increasing number of heron nests in the colony on SLT property and the property to which we have access -- and there are likely to be hundreds more nests on the adjacent property to which we do not have access."
