The Thick-billed Murre or Brünnich's Guillemot (Uria lomvia) is a bird in the auk family (Alcidae). It breeds on coasts and islands in the High Arctic of Europe, Asia and North America, where it is one of the most numerous bird species. From their high Arctic breeding grounds the species is migrating by both flying and swimming (also ocean currents) to their sub-arctic wintering grounds. E.g. the birds from Svalbard are wintering in the waters south of Greenland and in the Labrador Sea.

I took inspiration from Hong Lei's "Memory of Pomegranate" when taking this photograph. In Lei's piece, a mini-ecosystem can be seen as there are plants and animals living together in harmony in a balanced manner. I captured this scene to focus on emulating that very idea. When taking this picture, I envisioned the whole scene as one big system with everything working together based on the needs of the subjects within. The main focus of this picture was the cactus in front. Everything about the scene works together, the ground is dry and covered with dirt and sand which works with the plants which are mostly shrubs and cacti which need little water. One can easily tell that this is a desert type ecosystem because of the ground and plants that can be seen. I took this picture on my dad's Android phone closer to sunset time where the sun would provide the right soft lighting I needed so that the plants and scene could really be appreciated. I didn't take the picture in direct sunlight like at noon, for instance, because the harsh sun would not allow the beautiful desert colors to be appreciated.

Scientists are testing how fast soil is building up in this marsh near Knapps Narrows on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Recording this data over time in a variety of marshes around Chesapeake Bay may yield new insights about whether the increase in marsh elevations can keep pace with rising sea level in the estuary. Preserving marshes is important because they provide vital ecosystem functions including as fish nurseries and repositories of carbon.
