Honest John the Rover Salesman:
I think I have just the thing for you fellas. The HR500 gets great fusion mileage, has an impressive communications array and disruptor capabilities. The large wheels make even the roughest terrain smooth sailing, and can reconfigure to flight mode for short distances. I even had it painted in your favorite colors....
Sixty years ago in senior high school, my school days were full of athletics, cross-country in the fall, basketball during the winter and track in the spring. Leaving for school early on spring mornings for a nearly hour long bus ride, my school day passed quickly with fevered nonsense with friends and sparring with teachers but ended up with many tiring runs around our quarter mile track. Exhausted and arriving home as the sun was setting, I found the distance from the end of our lane to the barn to do chores the longest distance as the exhilaration of the day ebbed away.

A close fly-by from a short-eared owl in the Cambridgeshire Fens.
Each of these owls has their own 'personality' - some are wary, others are more trusting of humans and will fly that bit closer.

Paddle Boarder, Vancouver. Given the distance this guy paddle boarded, it was no wonder he took a break to simply take in all the beauty of Vancouver's North Shore. On his way back, I was astonished at his speed. No sooner had I taken the photo of him in front of the tanker (with the houses of West Vancouver in the background) when he was already "midship" and then past it!
The haze in these shots is due to the smoke from BC's wildfires drifting down to the coast. Still occurring as late as today, a day after "Fire Season" officially ended despite 153 active fires still burning in the province at a "mere" cost of $510 Million (and counting). And 65,000 residents evacuated over the summer. And still I see drivers carelessly tossing cigarettes out their vehicles.
Perhaps they need to spend some time paddle boarding out on the ocean taking in these grand views to appreciate the preciousness of the Nature which sustains us!
I'm finding that drives on backroads I've never been on to be a great method of social distancing. I found this abandoned gem somewhere east of Airdrie, Alberta and getting a decent shot of is was kind of challenging. Lots of power lines and towers litter the landscape here - especially from the best vantage points to capture the house.

Both Coyotes and White-tailed Jackrabbits (hares despite the name) are very skittish when sighting cars in the open fields of the Manitoba prairie farmland, even at great distances. These big hares are especially skittish in large groups where one hare's fears spread to all quickly.
I spotted 2 coyotes running away in a field at a great distance but saw a chance of using a farmhouse and its shelterbelt as a blind to get a closer running shot. On arrival at a conducive spot at the far edge of the shelterbelt, my car inadvertently scattered a large group of White-tailed Jackrabbits previously well off the road in the shelterbelt.
I found it fascinating that the second coyote, when it emerged in view, ran right through a group of the hares, most of which paid little or no attention to the dangerous predator. Here you see 8 hares nearby and only one is running (and not all-out in panic). The coyote had already passed many more, some within 4-5 feet. Both sides were evidently more concerned about my car than each other.
There is little doubt what the 2 coyotes were doing before seeing my car: looking for some tasty hare meat.
You don't see this every day, as the cliche goes!

" Κρατάω την απόστασή μου
σε μέτριες χαρές και γκρίζες ευτυχίες
κρατάω την απόστασή μου
σε γνώριμες γιορτές κι επώδυνες αργίες"
[Από το τραγούδι "Κρατάω την απόστασή μου", του Στ. Χατζηευσταθίου, με την Αργ. Καπαρού.]
Monsoon storm clouds during the "build-up" in Darwin, NT.... the tiny white sailboat in the distance makes this image for me.
All of the buildings in the hazy distance were not there after the last hurricane blew through town. None. Leveled everything. The boardwalk is a private contrivance to get out to a boat dock. Not really needed. But as my mum said, if you've got it flaunt it. No, it will not withstand any hurricane.
Please Zoom In for Details If You Like. I'm sure many of you will recognize this beautiful place. (I was really pleased with the lighting in this picture.)
In America, there is a song entitled, "From A Distance", sung by one of the most outstanding singers in the United States. Her name is Bette Midler. She is 74 years old now and beloved by many Americans. Here is the link to the song: www.bing.com/search?q=from+a+distance+bette+midler&pc...
I think it has a connection with the picture. Thank you for viewing and an extra thank you for listening to the song if you decide to choose to do so.
Very thankful for all of you!

Off in the distance Liberty of the Seas is conducting a life boat drill. I'm on my way into Hamilton with my cousins. I feel this capture tells different stories depending on how one interprets it. What do you take away from "FOR YOUR SAFETY"?
Thank you all for your Views, Favorites and Comments, They are much appreciated!!
It's summer in London and Regent's Park have very helpfully painted what 2m looks like so we can all social distance. Unfortunately the park is full of narrow bridges and walkways that make it all but impossible to stay that far apart. Not to mention that joggers will job past and almost brush your shoulder every few minutes. And some couples with dogs walk 3 abreast. It's a maze.
Makes daily excercise a pretty stressful experience.
Hope all doing well wherever you are in the world my Flickr friends.
