The catkins of the birch are the first to make a late spring appearance this year, edging out the maples who are following closely behind, these generally the first two trees to flower. And yes, some are surprised to find that all trees "flower" though not in the more commonly interpreted and traditional sense of the word. With the very late spring, one gets a distinct sense of a great energy just waiting to explode in both flora and fauna. While the lake is very slow to thaw, the snow is gone, and everything is rejoicing with the warmth of the sun.
The wetlands have opened up and the remarkable sandhill cranes have returned...based on their calling, in greater numbers than ever. I first actually saw them last year and have been looking again the last few days unsuccessfully. But their calls are unmistakable, remarkably and startlingly loud, and echo across the lake often during the course of the day. Here's a sample, tho there is no way this adequately conveys the actual volume... www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Sandhill_Crane/sounds
So along with the myriad of loon calls which can be heard throughout the night, the area is blessed with some of the more dramatic avian vocalizations to be heard in addition to the trilling of the songbirds.
Dawn yesterday morning at Mt Clear in the Namadgi NP. My helpful assistant was up with me watching the sunrise. This is a three frame HDR ... I took another couple of series of the sunrise (as you do...) but I really liked this one with my assistant in frame ... it lends a sense of scale to the place ...that's him in the colourful beanie in lower left ;-) ... it was a superb day too :-)

With the colors in the sunrise it's easy to miss the mountains in the back ground. The mountains are 10,000 feet in elevation,and are about 8 miles from where I took the photo.....LOOKS BEST ENLARGED ON BLACK (push L)
It was gloomy, just as it was on June first.
I've been contemplating starting a project in which I take a self portrait on the first of every month, and continuing it indefinitely. We'll see.
Black and white version in comments because I like them both.

Hallo zusammen
Es ist immer schön wenn man die ersten Mantis findet. So früh wie dieses Jahr habe ich in meinem Revier noch nie welche entdeckt, normalerweise kann ich Ende Juli mit den ersten, noch kleinen, Tieren rechnen.
The first Mantis 2018
Hello everyone
It's always nice to find the first mantis. As early as this year I have never discovered any in my area, normally I can count on the first, still small, animals at the end of July.
