Jays checks all around the feeders before coming into feed. They're getting braver as the weather gets colder and soon, hopefully, I'll have them on the posing branches.
. . . As the clouds rolled in today and the weatherman predicted rain, I was starting to question the decision to go to Point Betsie this afternoon. I was rewarded with this amazing sky and the ever colorful Lake Michigan water!
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
Cygnus cygnus at WWT Caerlaverock.
Beautiful birds and WWT Caerlaverock is the place to see them close up. All the birds at Caerlaverock are wild, no captive, pinned birds.
I have several of the classic Treecreeper poses but I liked this one, it shows the beaks design is perfect for winkling into crevasses on the tree bark.
Hadrian's Wall where you can touch a stone laid by a soldier of Rome around 122AD
(and probably touched by hundreds of folk through the ages)
Black Hole Marsh, Seaton, Devon.
Thanks to all who comment and favourite it is very much appreciated!!
Oh woe is me. My least favourite subject; and one I never seem to get when it's being asked for.
I took about 70 photos to get this one, along with another very similar one, and so hope I've got the bokeh correct.
Dear Admin & Moderators of the MM Group. Could I have an early Christmas present - that it's what you want and it stays in the Pool?!!
Honestly if it's way out and I don't think it is, I'll find a tissue, but accept your decision.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourite. :O)

. . . The most photographed lighthouse in Michigan has some things going for it! The green water (even when the sun is not shining), the incredible Lake Michigan surf, and last but not least, the actual rocks there, Petoskey stones and all kinds of goodies to look for! Today was a good day because many of the rocks are wet and more colorful.
Have a great Friday and Pre-Christmas weekend Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
At El Ensueño, QuindÃo, Colombia.
This is a female Summer Tanager (piranga rubra). The Summer Tanager breeds in the south-central USA and northern Mexico. They winter in Central America and South America as far south as Bolivia. They feed on insects, bees, wasps and wild fruits. The Summer Tanager was originally classified as a tanager, but recently reclassified and placed in the cardinal family. The adult male of this species is the only North American bird that is entirely red. The Summer Tanager and many other North American migrants begin appearing in South America in September and October. They will begin the return trip north in March or April.
