Taken at the Southport Spit....trying out my new wide angle lens on a very cloudy moody Easter Sunday. If you look closely you will see the heads of some brave (silly?) souls in the water.
♫ Bette Midler - From A Distance (Official Music Video) ♫

From A Distance
From a distance, the world looks blue and green
And the snow-capped mountains white
From a distance, the ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It's the voice of hope
It's the voice of peace
It's the voice of every man
From a distance, we all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs, and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a distance, we are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They're the songs of every man
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance
From a distance, you look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance, I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting's for
From a distance, there is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
It's the heart of every man (every man)
It's the hope of hopes
It's the love of loves
This is the song for every man
And God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance
Oh, God is watching us
God is watching
God is watching us
From a distance

Breeding males have obvious white blaze on forehead and broad green slash behind eye. Females are plainer brown with rusty sides. Females are very difficult to distinguish from female Eurasian Wigeon; note colder grayish-brown head on American that contrasts with warmer orangey sides. Also look for brighter white, not gray, underwings in flight, but this can be difficult to judge, especially at a distance. Widespread and common in North America, occasionally wintering as far south as northern South America. Typically in flocks on lakes and wetlands, often grazing in nearby fields. Regular vagrant to Europe. (eBird)

This photo was taken last summer during our three day trek in Hardangervidda National Park, Norway. This is me, looking back to where we had started the same morning, after having spent a (freezing) night in our tents, somewhere in the distance.

Green Heron
Circle B Bar Reserve
From Cornell:
From a distance, the Green Heron is a dark, stocky bird hunched on slender yellow legs at the water’s edge, often hidden behind a tangle of leaves. Seen up close, it is a striking bird with a velvet-green back, rich chestnut body, and a dark cap often raised into a short crest. These small herons crouch patiently to surprise fish with a snatch of their daggerlike bill. They sometimes lure in fish using small items such as twigs or insects as bait.
From your photographer:
I've seen them often slowly move forward while stalking as well - so maybe moving one foot in front of another over the span of 30 seconds - other times they've remained seemingly motionless for long periods of time. I haven't seen one using a lure yet.
See the post in the comments for a photo of this Green Heron with its neck extended.
Happy new week my friends, enjoy =) The weather's changing here getting cooler with possible snow flurries this week!
..is neither an invention of the current situation nor limited to human beings. When I saw these trees on my hiking trip on Friday along river Else I immediately had the words of Khalil Gibran (The prophet / on marriage) in my mind :
Love one another, but make not a bond
of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between
the shores of your souls.
Fill each other’s cup but drink not from
one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat
not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous,
but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone
though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each
other’s keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain
your hearts.
And stand together yet not too near
together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow
not in each other’s shadow.

Bray Head, Co.Wicklow, 5.20am, on a June morning.The old disused tunnel can be seen as a blue dot on the left and the red railway signal light in the foreground.
Killiney Hd, Dalkey Island, Howth Peninsula and Lambay Island are in the distance and the Sealink Holyhead car ferry can be seen heading for Dunlaoire Port. It makes two journeys daily to Anglesea in North Wales.

Im a bit disappointed with this photo really even though its one of my best I think. I shouldnt have done the vignetting as I think it ruined it. Its a pity as the colours are natural. Ill have to try and retake it this year. Flickr is great as You always know how good a photo is by the reaction and thats what its all about. Never fave a photo that you dont think is good enough. Its totally disloyal to the photographer and they wont learn.
If I can find the original Ill do something with this. Delete it possibly!!!!! P@t.

I've been away for some time and I'm sorry, life has been oh so busy.. Times are crazy with this virus and I hope you are all safe and practicing social distancing. I've missed you all so, thank you for the kind notes and mails.
Not too sure how long I'll be here but am trying to find time to love my camera again
