Thanks for all your comments and faves, much appreciated.
Meet: Brian. My mate, and fellow-wedding-photographer extraordinaire... When he isn't propping an umbrella up, he has a tight grip on a Nikon D3; he's mean, and shoots unsuspecting guests with it.
I think these black phoebes look rather dapper, decked out in their formal black suit and starched white shirt. OK, maybe I'm anthropomorphizing. Black phoebes are medium flycatchers. They are monogamous. During nesting season, the male will scout out several potential nest sites, then escort the female to each, who passes judgment on the different sites and finally chooses one. Then the female does all the nest building herself. Usually 2 broods per year. Gotta keep that species going.
Dressed far more stylishly than I ever was, a Dapper Snapper exits the ticket office at Kinghorn Station in Scotland - only to be confronted by an unexpected paparazzi.

I couldn't resist grabbing a shot of this dapper gentleman at the Pike Place Market in Seattle. He stood out in the sea of casual dressers.
Happy Slider Sunday!
Full disclosure: I had no idea this was James Randi when I took the photo. The man is an IDOL of mine. I was just taking street photos and these two looked dapper. My friend later texted me and was in shock! I’ve seen “An Honest Liar” a thousand times and I didn’t even know this was James in person. How embarrassing. Regardless, it’s a great street photo. I hope everyone enjoys it.
My dapper dude, handsome as ever,
Your touch turns morning into treasure.
In your eyes, I find my forever—
A quiet fire, a tender pleasure.

Good morning everyone. As mentioned yesterday, posted today is a series on the male Common Whitetail (Plathemis lydia) or Long-tailed Skimmer as it's also known. The Common Whitetail, is a common dragonfly across much of North America coast to coast , and is usually one of the first dragonflies to emerge each spring. The male has a striking and unusual appearance. It's white body, about 2 inches (5 cm) long, combined with the brownish-black bands on its otherwise translucent wings, gives it a checkered look and makes it one of the easiest dragonflies to identify while in flight.
I also included in the comment section a photo of an immature male and female for comparison purposes.
I hope you enjoy this series and have a truly great weekend. And for those of you in the United States, wishing you a Happy July 4th Holiday and weekend. Enjoy and be safe in whatever you do to celebrate America's Independence Day. And so you'll know, after today I'll be taking a two day break from posting here on flickr, but I'll be back on Tuesday hopefully.

I have lots of catching up to do. . .
Pied-billed grebes are often seen floating or diving on Florida’s lakes and ponds. This small pigeon-sized grebe has a short, blunt bill, which is encircled by a black band. These grebes are rarely seen flying, they usually dive and swim underwater when threatened. They feed on small fish, crustaceans and aquatic insects.
Some pied-billed grebes are year-round residents in Florida, and have an extended breeding season. Others migrate to northern states to breed and return to Florida for the winter.
Folk names of this grebe include Dabchick, Devil-diver, Dive-dapper, Hell-diver, and Water Witch.
I found this one along Alligator Alley Trail at Circle B Bar Reserve. Polk County Florida.
