Ramphocelus flammigerus -female-
(Flame-rumped Tanager / Toche)
This mom is now taking care of its offspring in the nest. For that reason her feathers appear as "messy".
The Flame-rumped Tanager occurs from western Panama south through Colombia to western Ecuador. This is a sociable bird, being typically found in monospecific flocks, which inhabit shrubby semi-open areas.

Theme `Matchstick
Stuck matchsticks into a cut potato in a bowl of water. Rotated image as the flame burn upward. Almost like a heart!

Flame Robin, Petroica phoenicea
≠==================≠
We have only had a limited success this year with the winter visiting Robin flocks. Perhaps we were not looking in the right places. Perhaps they have wanted to explore new areas on their pilgramage down from the high country.
This male was feeding along the mown area beside a roadway, and as vehicles drove past, he'd fly back to a bushy area.
Fortunately for me, he came back onto ta branch near where I was standing.
Micro (macro) photograph of a burning candle wick. Getting close enough to nearly scorch my lens!

Micro (macro) photographs of lit candles, showcasing the amazing art that's produced when a candle's wick burns and the candle's wax melts into incredible shapes.
The heptagon is the seven-sided shape produced, I believe, as an artifact via reflection or captured lens flare from my camera's lens.
It took me awhile to be able to expose properly for both the burning wick and the flame itself, and it's challenging to get a sharp focus as I shoot these handheld.

I hope you enjoy.
It's pouring rain, stifling and blowing the dog off the chain — time to bring the photographic subject indoors. The hibiscus season is almost over and the flowers are withered, wet and shredded. But wait, there in the dense shrub there's one. Quickly cut, remove insects, stick stem into some water in a wine bottle. Open the curtains wide, set the flower, camera and tripod up, and forget there's another night and day of boisterous La Nina weather. And here it is, the last flame hibiscus of the summer.
