Another one from our river bend spot, where Pips stalks the sunbaking water dragons further down the steep emankment at water's edge while far above in the towering old gums, the birdlife chatters on.
This higher ground is no longer left undisturbed to give me the joy of these little golden dazzlers in late afternoon.
Old fella fishermen are often there now, digging away on the hunt for enormous worms, leaving large pockets of uneven, bare and messy soil which turns to bog from the rain and tempts me to trip and fall over in it as I wander about with attention on the camera.
Nearly had a few woopsies ;\
The rest of it is now kept mown by local council at regular intervals, so I'm glad I snapped plenty of these last September.
Another reminder to take those pics when we see something we like - the same chance may not come 'round again.
Besides the watermark experiment, still sooc.
Love the colour combo's in this one, the gold against the grey.
Mother Nature is so clever..
Enjoy your weekend, my friends x
Myiarchus cephalotes
(Pale-edged flycatcher / Atrapamoscas montañero)
La Ceja, Colombia; 2.300 meters above sea level.
Pale-edged flycatcher is found in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela, distributed throughout subtropical montane forest in the Andes.
This species is typically a bird of humid forests and is one of the few species of Myiarchus that is restricted entirely to humid montane forest.

Offerton Edge, Peak District, UK

Fabulous view from Offerton Edge across Bamford to Win Hill and beyond.
Misty light on the edge of the woodland, the last of the Beech leaves still showing their golden hues.
It gives the scale doesn't it, Mark and Aiko in the middle of the landscape.
Deep down, just on the other side of the edge they are standing on, goes the road to Røldal, Norway.
Created in Deep Dream Generator from a photo I shot of a hibiscus that was growing in one of my gardens a few years ago.
The Peak District is stunningly beautiful especially at this time of year.
It should however technically be called the Edge district because there are more Edges than I can remember the names of (& I'm not talking about U2 guitarists here)
This particular Edge is called Froggat.
We'd rushed back from Wales on Tuesday night after spending 2 days walking up and down & along very very steep valleys because it was forecast to be a cold cloudless night which meant fog possibly.
Unfortunately the cloudy sky hadn't been paying proper attention to the BBC Weather forecast.
At the end of a dull rainy day we were rewarded with this spectacular moody sunset - we nearly gave up as it was raining on & off which meant continuously wiping the filters but I was hoping that the Sun would get through the small crack on the horizon & it finally did as it was told
If you visit the Waterfalls in Brecon, don't visit Padley Gorge straight afterwards.
Padley Gorge is beautiful in its own way but should be done first to get you in the mood
If like me you do it the wrong way round it would be like a keen hill walker spending a few days in Glencoe then moving to Skegness or the Norfolk Broads :)
Many thanks to everyone who took the trouble to view comment or fave :)
