...the Fifth of November,
The Gunpowder Treason and Plot
It's bonfire night here in the UK... which is an annual celbration known as
Guy Fawkes . I'm not able to get any shots tonight, but still wanted to enter into the spirit... so this is my effort. From the Disney fireworks display in the summer.
Update
Retouched and replaced.
One rewarding factor in doing photo-tripping on a familiar route many times during a year, is that you get to know individual animals and birds that hunt or live in an area.
The last several summers my wife and I drive through a very isolated area west of Cambridge where we have become accustomed to seeing a Northern Harrier peruse a large grassy field. Sometimes he will fly a couple of feet above the ground with his eyes fixed looking for voles or other small animals to pounce on. Other times he will fly long loops around the field from a height of 10-12 feet looking for prey.
In all of our times of observing, we have never seen him perch in a tree until this week. After sitting for a while with his head turned toward us and his body pointing another, he decided to fly off the tree and in doing so gave us a spectacular view of his back as well as demonstrating how large he must look to a small animal with his wings extended.

Northern Territory, Australia
We spotted this lizard while driving through the Australian outback in the Northern Territory. When he realized he had been spotted, he dashed to the nearest tree stump. He was not happy we were taking pictures and, in an effort to scare us off, he raised his frill abruptly around his neck. The neck frill is simply a thin but extensive fold of skin surrounding the throat. When fully erected, the frill measured approximately 12 inches across and was an extraordinary orange and pink. Thankfully, the lizard stayed perched long enough for me to get this shot. Soon after, he folded his crest, climbed down from the stump, and walked away through the bush.
Or at least this guy thinks so. I was surprised to see this guy feeling frisky without a hen in sight. It's January buddy, calm down!
Of course it is from my window and taken with my phone this is the extent of my creativeness lately.

Nov. 30, 2025: The holiday light display on the 900 block of Golden Crest Ave. Newbury Park is nearing completion. Santa Claus visits are scheduled for December 5th, 7th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 19th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd from 6:00 pm till 9:00 pm. Visitors are asked to bring new, unwrapped toys and/or donate to The High Five Foundation, supporting athletes in recovery.
There were several bases along Route 66. This exhibit is odd because it has a plane identification guide to German and British planes: Route 66 ran from Chicago to Los Angeles.
Wild Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) (M)
“Wild Turkeys are very large, plump birds with long legs, wide, rounded tails, and a small head on a long, slim neck….. Turkeys travel in flocks and search on the ground for nuts, berries, insects, and snails. They use their strong feet to scratch leaf litter out of the way. In early spring, males gather in clearings to perform courtship displays. They puff up their body feathers, flare their tails into a vertical fan, and strut slowly while giving a characteristic gobbling call. At night, turkeys fly up into trees to roost in groups….. Wild Turkeys live in mature forests, particularly nut trees such as oak, hickory, or beech, interspersed with edges and fields. You may also see them along roads and in woodsy backyards. After being hunted out of large parts of their range, turkeys were reintroduced and are numerous once again.”
