One of my favorite Snowbirds act and it was really hard to get a good shot as "splits" usually happen very fast.
waking from a nap, this fellow has a good stretch!
8-(....looks like my friend here has a touch of mange...hopefully it won't get worse.
Moisture in the den can make things worse, and it's been very damp lately here....one of the reasons I think I catch these guys sunning at the edge of the woods on sunny days, trying to dry out and get the healing rays of the sun.

Street and urban landscape photography from East Kilbride, Scotland. Just something that caught my eye while out on my weekly lock-down exercise walk, with camera of course (I never leave home without it). Just three lone figures in the frame on the edge of the busy town centre. Stay safe my Flickr friends.

Northern harriers are my favorite raptor so it's safe to say that I spend a lot of time photographing them. whenever I can. Consequently, it's difficult to get a unique pose out of them. Luckily, I found this lady harrier while she was attending her yoga class and showing off the "Downward Harrier" pose. LOL
OK, seriously this female harrier was spotted investigating some feather snaps on the frozen lake. When she leaned over, the wind caught her from behind and caused her to be in this extreme lean over pose. Thought she was going to flip over. LOL.
Happy Wednesday everyone!

This immature green-winged teal is ably demonstrating how waterfowl practice yoga. Preening and stretching is a regular part of the daily care routine performed by most birds.
You can see developing feathers (pin feathers) emerging from sheaths on the underside of the wing. These white feathers will make up part of the duck's wing lining.
A funnel cloud descends towards the ground at Canadian TX... one of many, these never hot the earth thus becoming a tornado... we had to wait around two hours for that to happen.
White-Breasted Nuthatch.
Sparrow-sized at between 5-6 inches in length. They are blue-gray above with white underparts and face and a black crown. They are usually seen creeping downward on tree trunks.
They can be found in deciduous and mixed forests.
They range from British Columbia to Nova Scotia and, with the exception of most of the Great Plains, can be found throughout the United States.

I use to take living near the sea for granted. But with all this lock down stuff going on. It makes me realise just how lucky I am.
One of those photos in which words hardly can describe the scenery. I called it downward because the plane was turned downward and my camera focused on a cliff with a waterfall. In the backdrop another massive glacier.
There’s nothing quite so exhilarating as careering down a hill on a bike…
The village where I live is one long hill. The cyclists love haring down the main road terrorising the hapless pedestrians thinking of crossing (they have good reason to be wary as bicycles can’t really stop quickly at all - they have so little rubber on the road).
This is a panning wobbly picture taken from the scaffolding on top of my neighbour's house that was put up to repair his roof. The house is an old merchant’s house built in the 1600s. It’s three storeys high and built, as they usually were, without foundations. I was on top of that, so four floors up.
The view from up there was striking - only the church tower, higher up the village, would be loftier. For all that, though, it was difficult to use for photography because of all the chimneys and scaffold poles. You can see the effect one of the scaffold poles in the image appearing as a light line at right angles to the movement.
Still, the cyclist was most accommodating wearing a red helmet, so I couldn’t resist trying. This is for my 100x Wobbly Camera project.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the lethal plummeter. Happy 100x :)
Hello amazing Flickr people!
Today is yellow day at Color My World Daily Group and the theme at *ღღ* Cosas de casa *ღღ Group is spiral.
Yellow Lady (and as you can notice: Yellow Lady has new red shoes !!) was feeling like her life was this big yellow spiral. And it was a very tedious task to try to make it to the top. Each time she was trying to achieve a personal goal, the yellow spiral was so steep and hard to climb…. And it was very, very easy to fall down and then you will have to climb once again through all the spiral circles…Yellow Lady was very tired of this never-ending spiral in her personal life. She was trying to lose weight, but it seemed that the spiral was never ending. And each time she was almost at the top and she could almost see the victory on her scale…something was pushing her back down once again… And the climb had to start again from the beginning or almost…
Yellow Lady was feeling her frustration growing bigger and bigger and her motivation getting smaller and smaller (unlike her waistline) …
She decided not to give up! She will climb as many times as it takes! And eventually she will achieve her goal and conquer the top of that yellow spiral of her life!
But, right now, let’s hope no one of my coworkers will notice that I gained a few pounds. I have another video meeting, so see you later my friends!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and healthy!! And enjoy your day!!
A favorite view of mine at the Archery Summit Winery. This is in the parking lot area looking down the valley with vineyards seemingly stretching on and on. I tried to figure out a good way to lineup the image between the nearby fence post and the vineyards beyond. By angling my camera slightly more downward, I was able to include the much of vineyards and have that be more of a focus in the overall image. With just a little bit of clouds above, I felt it captured the feeling of looking across the valley.

Omicron is tapping at our door. It seems to be raging in Australia but our border security is just holding it at present. I am double vaccinated but going for the booster shot today. My good wife had it yesterday with no ill effects.
The staircase is a Georgian hanging stair that supports itself for 3 floors of the castle. In the distance a girl in sand shoes descends to the basement exit on a different straight stair. Just my holding a camera seemed to make her rush down 4 stories. Was she worried I would put her on social media or something?
