The jungle myna is a myna, a member of the starling family. It is found patchily distributed across much of the mainland of the Indian Subcontinent but absent in the arid zones of India
Not just a bird of reedbeds, this common species is widely distributed across much of Britain & Ireland throughout the year. It is absent only from the highest upland areas.
The male Reed Bunting has a striking black head with a white moustachial stripe; the female has a browner head, but the moustachial stripe is still visible. When perched, both sexes flirt their tail sideways, showing white outer feathers. The male's buzzing call is distinctive.
In winter, the Reed Bunting often joins other finches and buntings to feed in arable landscapes. At the end of the 20th century, BTO research attributed declines in these species to intensive agriculture reducing food availability over the winter months. This issue has been, to some extent, addressed through agri-environment schemes, and there has been a gradual overall increase in the UK population since the late-1990s. However, the picture is mixed with a significant decline in South-east England.
This species is distributed from Hungary to as far east as Mongolia and China. The most important distinguishing character is the yellowish brown mystax ("mustache", darker in males), which is white in the case of S. elegantulus, black and "bushy" on S. albofasciatus (the latter has entirely black legs). Stichopogon scaliger, males of which may have yellow-brown mystax, has a different abdominal pattern and lacks the relatively long, dark acrostichal setae on the mesonotum of S. barbistrellus.
(This specimen is relatively freshly emerged, slightly tenereal, therefore the reddish color of the tibiae is not very obvious.)
A widely distributed duck species, it is often considered uncommon in our region. We see it often but always far from camera range to get any shots. This is far less common than the Lesser Whistling Ducks which we are seeing in 100's these days.
The bird is a medium sized duck and has a whistling kind of call. Fulvous describes the color (reddish-yellow). They are often confused with Lesser whistling ducks which are seen throughout the year in our region. However, Fulvous Ducks have white markings on both sides of the tail area, a grey patch around the neck, and the eye ring is grey compared to yellow for the Lesser Whistling ducks. These are thought to be nocturnal ducks and active at nights.
While at the grassland during the weekend, more than 500 birds (these + Lesser + Spot Billed ducks + Swamphens + Ibises) all flew suddenly filling the sky much to my joy. I waded into the ankle deep waterlogged fields and wondered if I caused that - though I was skeptical. After 10 mins, found the answer, a Red Necked Falcon was hunting and it caught a babbler. It must have been nesting in the area and caused these ducks to take flight while doing a pass.
Thanks in advance for your views and feedback - very much appreciated.
The great egret, also known as the common egret, large egret, or great white egret or great white heron is a large, widely distributed egret, with four subspecies found in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and southern Europe. Wikipedia
Conservation status: Least Concern Encyclopedia of Life
Scientific name: Ardea alba
Family: Ardeidae
Distributed in the Western Ghats, these creatures feed on frogs, crabs, mouse deer, black naped hares, rodents, fowl, and reptiles. They usually inhabit in riparian habitats away from human habitation. Clicked at the famous Mudumalai National Park, a tiger reserve at an elevation range of 850-1,250 m in the Nilgiri District of Tamil Nadu which shares boundaries with the states of Karnataka and Kerala.
Your comments and faves are greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
Eastern Spinebill
Acanthorhynchus tenuirostris
The Eastern Spinebill sometimes hovers like a hummingbird when feeding on the nectar from flowers. Most Australian honeyeaters feed on flowers from a perched position.
Description: The Eastern Spinebill is most easily recognised by its very long, fine, down-curved beak and energetic flight, during which its white outer tail feathers are prominent. Males have a grey-black crown which extends in a black line on either site of the breast. The breast and throat are white, with a rufous patch in the centre of the throat. The wings and lower back are dark grey and the underparts and upper back are buff. Females are similar to males but have less distinct markings.
Similar species: Crescent Honeyeater, Tawny-crowned Honeyeater, Western Spinebill (in Western Australia)
Distribution: The Eastern Spinebill's range is generally east of the Great Dividing Range from Cooktown in Queensland to the Flinders Ranges in South Australia
Habitat: The Eastern Spinebill prefers heath, forest and woodland.
Seasonal movements: Largely sedentary, but undergoes some local movements, especially away from higher elevations in autumn/winter.
Feeding: The Eastern Spinebill feeds on insects and nectar while perched or while hovering. Nectar is obtained from a wide array of flowers, including grevilleas, but its beak is particularly well-suited to extracting nectar from tubular flowers such as epacrids.
Breeding: The Eastern Spinebill's nest is a small cup of twigs, grass and bark, combined with hair and spider's web, built in a tree fork, generally between 1 and 5 metres from the ground. Only the female builds the nest and incubates the eggs, but both parents feed the young when they hatch.
Calls: Short, repeated, high-pitched piping.
Minimum Size: 15cm
Maximum Size: 16cm
Average size: 16cm
Average weight: 11g
Breeding season: August to January
Clutch Size: 2
Incubation: 14 days
Nestling Period: 14 days

Superb Fairy-wren
Scientific Name: Malurus cyaneus
Description: Adult male Superb Fairy-wrens are among the most brightly coloured of the species, especially during the breeding season. They have rich blue and black plumage above and on the throat. The belly is grey-white and the bill is black. Females and young birds are mostly brown above with a dull red-orange area around the eye and a brown bill. Females have a pale greenish gloss, absent in young birds, on the otherwise brown tail. The legs are brown in both sexes. Males from further inland and in the south-west of the range have more blue on the back and underparts.
Similar species: Several other species of fairy-wren are found in Australia. The males of each species are quite distinct, but the females and young birds are often difficult to separate. Of the species that overlap in range with the Superb Fairy-wren, the female White-winged Fairy-wren Malurus leucopterus and Red-backed Fairy-wren M. melanocephalus lacks the chestnut colour around the eye, while the female Variegated Fairy-wren M. lamberti has a dull grey-blue wash. Both the Superb and White-winged Fairy-wrens are similar in size. The Variegated Fairy-wren is slightly larger in size and has a longer tail.
Distribution: Superb Fairy-wrens are found south of the Tropic of Capricorn through eastern Australia and Tasmania to the south-eastern corner of South Australia.
Habitat: Seen in most habitat types where suitable dense cover and low shrubs occur. They are common in urban parks and gardens, and can be seen in small social groups. These groups normally consist of one dominant male and several females and young birds.
Feeding: Superb Fairy-wrens feed on insects and other small arthropods. These are caught mostly on the ground, but may also be taken from low bushes. Feeding takes place in small social groups.
Breeding: The nest is a dome-shaped structure of grasses and other fine material. It is usually placed in a low bush and is constructed by the female. The female incubates the eggs alone, but both sexes feed the young. Other members of the group will also help with the feeding of the young.
Male Superb Fairy-wrens have been labelled as 'the least faithful birds in the world'. Females may be courted by up to 13 males in half an hour, and 76% of young are sired by males from outside the social group.
Calls: The Superb Fairy-wren gives a series of high pitched trills, which are given by both sexes. The male often extends these trills into song.
Minimum Size: 13cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 14cm
Average weight: 10g
Clutch Size: Three to four.

A widely distributed very long-legged wader in the avocet and stilt family. The scientific name comes from the Greek meaning 'strap foot' or 'thong foot. In some regions it is also called the Pied Stilt. They are great fun to watch and walk gracefully with delicate but long steps. They have the longest legs proportional to their size of any bird. Its long slender bill is used to snatch at tiny insects in the air and amongst the surrounding vegetation.

Argiope bruennichi (wasp spider) is a species of orb-web spiders distributed throughout Central and Northern Europe, North Africa, parts of Asia, and the Azores archipelago. Like many other members of the genus Argiope (including St Andrew's Cross spiders), it has striking yellow and black markings on its abdomen. The spider builds a spiral orb web at dawn or dusk, most often in long grass just above ground level. When prey gets trapped in the web, the spider immobilizes it by wrapping it in silk. The prey is then bitten and injected with a paralyzing venom and a protein-dissolving enzyme.

Late August and I wasn't chasing this day... In fact I was preparing to head out to the east coast to catch up with Hurricane Dorian.
Just few blocks from my home here in Kearney Nebraska with no warnings issued this was creaping in from the west northwest. This thunderstorm didn't become severe until it passed over the city of Kearney. But as it approached... the sky was talking and I was listening...
I couldn't resist! With camera in hand I was out to capture a few hundred pics of what was in front of me. A wicked good photographic Nebraska stormscapes and some epic Nebraska Thunderheads!

Panellus stipticus, commonly known as the bitter oyster, the astringent panus, the luminescent panellus, or the stiptic fungus, is a species of fungus. It belongs in the family Mycenaceae, and the type species of the genus Panellus. A common and widely distributed species, it is found in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America, where it grows in groups or dense overlapping clusters on the logs, stumps, and trunks of deciduous trees, especially beech, oak, and birch. During the development of the fruit bodies, the mushrooms start out as tiny white knobs, which, over a period of one to three months, develop into fan- or kidney-shaped caps that measure up to 3 cm (1.2 in) broad. The caps are orange-yellow to brownish, and attached to the decaying wood by short stubby stalks that are connected off-center or on the side of the caps. The fungus was given its current scientific name in 1879, but has been known by many names since French mycologist Jean Bulliard first described it as Agaricus stypticus in 1783. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed P. stipticus to have a close genetic relationship with members of the genus Mycena.

It was another exciting local chase day in South Central Nebraska. A real treat! I didn't have to travel far from home to catch the severe weather that afternoon.
By mid afternoon, mother nature was on the prowl. Dry line had formed just about 30 miles to my west and storms were firing. Towers building and we had sufficient shear that day. We had all the right ingredients for severe weather to do her thing.
I was hoping for a photographic day, and this was the 2nd photogenic severe storm cell of that day. I wasn't expecting this opportunity. Even though NWS had downgraded this cell, it was still a sight to look at.
Arcus.....I wasn't disappointed.

Somehow these ducks do not come to the city every year, although they are found in surrounding areas, so I really lucked out here. This is likely a young male, based on its white cap and emerging green plumage behind the eye, and on the wing feather pattern. Of course this fellow chose a very dark day to visit, so I did my best… This species is mostly found in North America with some in Europe, unlike the Eurasian Wigeon (see accompanying photo) that is somewhat more widely distributed, including in North America.
Admired at the Pool, Central Park, New York.
Black-naped Hare is well distributed in scrub and grasslands throughout the island. It is nocturnal in habit in most areas and during day time lies up in a well camouflaged sheltered patch in the undergrowth. But in the protected areas such as in national parks, it is active even during the day time, mostly in the morning hours. Black-naped Hare is an almost entirely herbivorous mammal and feeds on grasses, shoots, young leaves etc. It doesn't have definite breeding season and produces one or two young ‘leverets’ at any time of the year.
Explored on 5th September 2021
The Indian Leopard is widely distributed in the subcontinent. Its coat is spotted and rosetted on a pale yellow to yellowish-brown or golden background and notably the rosettes are larger in other leopard subspecies in Asia. Fur colour tends to be more pale and cream in arid habitats, more gray in colder climates, and of a darker golden hue in rainforest habitats. It is speculated that nearly 15,000 of these beasts live in India. Sadly, even though I live just a two hour drive from wildlife sanctuaries that host these magnificent animals, I have yet to sight them, let alone click them, in the wild.
As an aside, today is the day the Cheetah will be reintroduced in India after being declared extinct in 1952. Eight Cheetahs are scheduled to arrive in India today from Namibia. It is an ambitious and risky plan and India is the only country that has the resources at present to do the impossible, making the country the only one in the world to host all six of the large cats, the Royal Bengal Tiger (Panthera Tigris Tigris), the Asiatic Lion (Panthera Leo Leo), the Indian Leopard (Panthera Pardus Fusca), the Snow Leopard (Panthera Uncia), the Clouded Leopard and the African Cheetah. Sadly the Asiatic Cheetah numbers, presently only found in Iran, are too few to undertake such a risky venture with them.
Update [20-05-2024]: There are now 27 cheetahs in Kuno National Park, including 14 cubs born on Indian soil.

The Alice River in central Queensland, Australia rises on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range. It has been very dry so the river is a series of waterholes - it needs a good flush. You can see the water marks on the trees from previous flows. The river flows in a south-westerly direction towards Isisford and its confluence with the Barcoo River to later form Cooper Creek. Barcaldine is located on Lagoon Creek, which flows into the Alice River.

Loggerhead turtles are sparsely distributed in the warmer oceans worldwide. The carapace of adults is about 90 cm long. They are long-lived; one estimate suggests they can live from 80 to 100 years, although females are no longer fertile after about age 33.
One of their most important breeding sites in the Mediterranean is Iztuzu Beach, which fronts the Dalyan river delta in southwest Turkey. Breeding females haul themselves up this and other Turkish beaches at night during the summer months. They excavate a pit in the sand, into which they deposit some 50 to 200 eggs, and then cover them with sand. The incubation period is around 60 days. The gender of the young depends on the temperature of the sand; if it is 32°C, they are female; 28° and they are male. The hatchlings are nidifugous -- they are able to survive independently from birth without any parental assistance. They instinctively dig themselves out of their pit and make for the sea.
Conservation measures are in place to protect the nests: beaches are out of bounds at night; dogs are not permitted in case they dig up the eggs or predate the young. Known nest locations are protected with a cage and a warning sign.

Karettschildkröte
Widely distributed across South and Southeast Asia with several populations that vary in the shade of grey and patterns and in the size or presence of white patches around the eye. Similar to the Black Drongo although this bird is slimmer and has a somewhat longer and less-splayed tail. Has short legs and sits very upright while perched prominently. It is insectivorous and forages by making spectacular aerial sallies.

Oriental Garden Lizard, (Calotes versicolor) or Changeable Lizzard is an agamid lizard found widely distributed in Asia. It is an insectivore and the male gets a bright red throat in the breeding season.
The Changeable Lizard is relatively common and found in a wide range of habitats. They appear to adapt well to humans and are thus not endangered. They are commonly found among the undergrowth in open habitats including highly urban areas.
Changeable Lizards eat mainly insects and small vertebrates, including rodents and other lizards. Although they have teeth, these are designed for gripping prey and not tearing it up. So prey is swallowed whole, after it is stunned by shaking it about.

Very widely distributed, breeding from Australia to Spain and Morocco, with the northern extent of migratory breeders extending to northern Russia and Mongolia. Migratory over much of the Eurasian range, predominately wintering in sub-Saharan Africa. Present year-round in the Indian subcontinent eastwards through Myanmar, Lao PDR, Viet Nam, Cambodia and northern Thailand, China, the Republic of Korea, DPR Korea and far south eastern Russia; also Japan, Sulawesi and the Lesser Sundas (Indonesia), Papua New Guinea and Australia. Birds are seen on passage through central and southern Thailand and the Malaysian Peninsular, indicating that a proportion of birds in the eastern range are also migratory.

This harbor seal had just lugged his 330 pounds hauling out on a favorite perch. I know we've seen him (or her) twice before on what evidently is his rock.
The harbor (or harbour) seal (Phoca vitulina), also known as the common seal, is a true seal found along temperate and Arctic marine coastlines of the Northern Hemisphere. The most widely distributed species of pinniped (walruses, eared seals, and true seals), they are found in coastal waters of the northern Atlantic, Pacific Oceans, Baltic and North Seas.
One way to know that you're seeing a Harbor Seal in Monterey Bay is that they are genuinely curious and will bob in the water and stare at you until bored. On one encounter on Cape Cod many, many years ago, I was knocked overboard when my date for the day said, "I'm going to tack." I didn't know what that meant, but when the boom clocked me, I went overboard into Buzzard's Bay. And there was a Harbor Seal bobbing and staring at me. I wasn't going to pet him and found out that I could eject myself from the Bay into the sailboat like a rocket.

Logan Circle, Philadelphia
Logan Circle's thriving rat colonies, nurtured by the city's laid-back approach to emptying public trash cans, means living is easy for the hawks. At least until someone in authority panics and distributes rat poison, which along with killing some rats sickens and sometimes kills predators who feed on the dying rodents. Nonlethal management is better for all of us! www.researchgate.net/publication/344930739_Human-Wildlife...

As most of US is either under rain or snow. Here in Nebraska we have had some unusually warm weather for February 2014. It was close to 50 degrees at sunset.
The light cresting against the horizon was just to good to pass up.

Conocybe rugosa is a common species of mushroom that is widely distributed and especially common in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. It grows in woodchips, flowerbeds and compost.[2][3] It has been found in Europe, Asia and North America.[2][3] It contains the same mycotoxins as the death cap mushroom. Conocybe rugosa was originally described in the genus Pholiotina, and its morphology and a 2013 molecular phylogenetics study supported its continued classification there.[4]
Description
Conocybe rugosa has a conical cap that expands to flat, usually with an umbo. It is less than 3 cm across, has a smooth brown top, and the margin is often striate. The gills are rusty brown, close, and adnexed. The stalk is 2 mm thick and 1 to 6 cm long, smooth, and brown, with a prominent and movable ring. The spores are rusty brown, and it may be difficult to identify the species without a microscope.[5]
Toxicity
This species is deadly poisonous.[6] They produce alpha-amanitin, a cyclic peptide that is highly toxic to the liver and is responsible for many deaths by poisoning from mushrooms in the genera Amanita and Lepiota. They are sometimes mistaken for species of the genus Psilocybe due to their similar looking cap.

July 27, 2016 - West of Elm Creek Nebraska, US
Its was a dry summer... Though hot and humid, storms were few and far between at the end of July 2016 in South Central Nebraska.
Now don't get me wrong... Nebraska had its fair share of severe weather this time of the year. Though all of it was either west or east of Central Nebraska. Or simply out of my chasing range.
Any storms that came within our vicinity would die and then rebuild east of my location. I work overnights so chasing the night storms this year were not in my or mother natures plans.
So when I had any opportunity to catch that perfect light, like this particular evening , I couldn't have asked for a better scenario of light and storm. I was just happy to get these captures!!!
A magical evening of Light and Storm....
