The forest floor of the Tarkine temperate rainforest is covered with all sorts of wonders. We can see here a range of lichens and moss growing in the soil, decomposing vegetation and oxygen rich air.

Alone with myself the trees bend to caress me.

taken in the evening at the lake.

One last gathering, of the fallen leaves,

some are already rotting at the bottom of the creek,

others flow for a while before they sink,

an unexpected wind will send also them on their final journey,

it's autumn.

Thanks for looking.

This scrub jay was dropping to the ground to grab food, then back into a bush to eat it, then back down.

Both Green heron parents take turns feeding their babies. Here one is preparing a meal.

Thank you for taking a look!

This lesser goldfinch landed in the tree above me, and came up with this short stick, proudly carrying it in its mouth.

Gannet gathering nesting material at Bempton

Standing on the shoreline at Worthing at the end of the hottest day of 2019 during a visit to my younger son and his family in Brighton. Fascinating to watch the way the sea sucks back ready for another huge wave to crash down. Crowds all gone, wonderful peaceful time all to myself with part of my family near. Such precious times.

Jon and his family are coming to visit at the end of this month, with my new grandson, and I can't wait !

Hope you like my picture - edited in Topaz Studio, just a slight modification, not much different from the original except heavily cropped.

Thank you very much for every view, fave and comment, each is so appreciated.

This was one of the heaviest thunders what i have experienced.

This female Yellow-headed Blackbird has a bill full of food for the chicks as she rests on a cat-o-nine-tails. She's really been at it as she has the remains of what looks like spider webs or plant detris on her head.
