This beauty spends a lot of time in our Mt. Ash tree and is quite the poser when I point the camera at him.
Enjoy and thanks so much for coming by!

Même sous la grisaille, on peut trouver de la couleur !

An old favorite spiffed up a bit. This was one of the first photos I was halfway happy with when I ventured away from 35mm to digital. Unfortunately I had the camera set for low resolution and there isn't much of a file to work with. I don't normally do much alteration to my photos, besides bright/contrast and a little color correction. What you see is what you get for the most part, but I'm fooling around with a few oldies to improve my rather mediocre Photoshop skills.
A roseate spoonbill shows off that amazing pink plumage in a flashy fly-by.

This is apparently a variety of canna (canna lily, African arrowroot or Indian shot). (See Patrick's comment below.) It caught my eye in the botanical garden in Hain Park. Tentative ID: PlantNet.org. [P1040593_lr_2000]
Thank you all for the clicks, comments & faves.
I was down at Greenway near the water, when this American Goldfinch dropped in for a portrait before moving on.

A Teeny-Tiny Crop
Rio Grande locomotives worked in a tough operating environment along numerous grades, through canyons and tunnels. SD50 No. 5504 was particularly clean (even the snow plow) as it lead train No. 772 between Mesa and Lehi, Utah the morning of June 23, 1988.
Last Friday I ventured down to Trebarwith Strand with Darren, Jim and James for sunset.
I've been here twice now, the last time I went I witnessed one of the most amazing sunsets I've ever seen, so I was hoping for more of the same on this visit.
We got there as the tide was coming in, which meant most of the beach was inaccessible. So, I headed to this rock channel which is one of the classic compositions from here, I'm pretty happy with the shot but I think we needed the tide to be a bit higher as it fills this channel with fast flowing water.
There was some nice colour just before sunset, but it was snuffed out by a huge bank of moody cloud so we didn't get the pinks and blues that we were after.

As much as I appreciated comments and feedback I would request no Awards or flashy gif comments, please. They will be deleted. Thank you.
Wild bergamot, seen here, is one of several plants also known by the common name of bee balm. Scientifically known as Monarda fistulosa, the name "wild bergamot" refers to the plant's scent, which is similar to bergamot oranges, while "bee balm" relates to its attractiveness to bees as a nectar source.

Common name: Variegated New Zealand Flax.
Botanical name: Phormium tenax 'variegata'.
Family: Xanthorrhoeaceae.
Taken in Mountainside, Gordon's Bay, South Africa.
Frequents suburban settings across North America, along with open woods, brushy field edges, and deserts. Males vary in shades and intensity of red. Some males are yellow or orange. Females are drab gray-brown overall with plain faces and blurry streaks on underparts. Similar to Purple and Cassin's Finch, but House Finch males are more orangey-red with color equally bright on crown, throat, and breast. Red color is mostly restricted to head and upper chest, contrasting with cold gray-brown nape, back, and wings. Pale sides show distinct brown streaks, lacking red tones. Females lack bold face pattern and have more diffuse patterning overall. Often sings loudly in neighborhoods and visits feeders. (eBird)
------------------
She was part of a flock of House Finch that were visiting nearby feeders. Although the males are flashier, I thought that she looks happy in the winter sunshine. The males just looked grumpy.
McCarthy Woods, Ottawa, Ontario Canada. December 2023.
It was odd to see this bird in late February because seeing one is usually a sign of winter coming, not Spring!

Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images it's very much appreciated.
While walking along Port Stanley's oceanfront seawall trail, I came upon a few of these pretty and pretty aggressive crested ducks. Earlier in the trip, I saw one chase other birds, flying and swimming with purpose to move them on. Strangely, it was not all other ducks. Just a few specific ones. Personal grudges, perhaps. LOL.
The eye is very striking; deep red and black. The crest is not big and showy, and barely shows on the back of the head. They are a medium-sized duck, not flashy, but still appealing.
