Green snake
Macro .(pls take note this shot was taken by Tamron USD 70-300mm VC lens not precisely describe below as i was too afraid of been attack or bitten by such snake species with mere 50mm lens). I immediately terminate my search for insect n flew home instantly with such threatening encounter at Woodlands Admiralty Park not once but twice . The last time was a king cobra that measure at least 1.7m. No joke!
In Macro photography, nothing is too small to escape with an additional extensive magnification even any smallest creatures beside a size of near un-visible tiny droplet like this mini grasshopper shall be spare.
My recent Macromania workfun hands on with a Non Macro combination,a cheap Canon $125 bucks 50mm F1.8II lens +Raynox+Hoya +4 close up filter .
After all, I think the result still quite acceptable but fun.

week 24: artistic - green
Green as in the color of nature ... I tried to capture nature in its glorious details. The cactus is always a fascinating plant when you look at its details.

The majesty of Vestmannabjørgini (Vestmanna sea cliffs), Streymoy (Faroe Islands).
Known as the Vestmannabjørgini, these majestic sea cliffs rise up to 600 meters above the turquoise hues of the churning sea below roughly halfway between Vestmanna and Saksun, on the north side of Streymoy, Faroe Islands.
The cliffs are characterized by their numerous clefts and green blankets of luxuriant grass and mosses (sheep graze quite undisturbed on the clifftops).
The boats that sail here give an unparalleled view of the cliffs and the birds as they weave in between the numerous sea stacks and in and out the narrow straits bound by sheer rock walls and dark echoing grottoes.
These soaring cliffs provide safe nesting places during the summer months (May-August) for thousands upon thousands of seabirds, above all puffins, guillemots, razorbills and gulls.

i love how nature always finds a way. i did a version @1.8 but the focus was too slight. but ooooh the bokeh!
In Montreal they have a underground shopping system with some very cool corridors and passages. Man I loved that place!
Another one from the country. I'm not very happy with the exposure, but I like the lines. It's something.

Green Door, Evening. © Copyright 2022 G Dan Mitchell.
A weathered green door, a green wall, a sidewalk — evening light.
First, a brief description of the photography, and then another reason that I am posting it today. I made the photograph on one of my daily walks — I try to get out and cover various routes in a radius of a couple of miles or so that add up to between 3 and 5 miles on a typical day. I always carry a camera, even though I don’t take it out on most of the walks. I’ve been past this old building quite a few times, but today I saw this door for the first time, so I stopped to photograph its worn and tilting form.
The other reason this photograph is here is that it comes from what is for me a photography tradition: the process of getting up to speed on a new camera. I usually avoid upgrading cameras too frequently. There are many reasons, but one is that I depend upon knowing a camera’s interface to the point where operation is intuitive. But eventually I do get new cameras. This was the first walk with the new Fujifilm XT5, which is going to replace the (fine) XPro2 that I’ve been using since that camera was introduced. I won’t go into the technical details at this point, but so far I’m liking the camera a lot.

In the upper 70's today. Cloudy but warm and the pastures are as green as green can be after the barrage of rain. Spring has sprung. And it is good.
Red and Green, that's one of my favorite color combinations..

The green sandpiper is a very contrasting wader which looks like a large house martin in flight. Its dark, almost black upperparts, pale underparts and white rump are distinctive. It frequently bobs up and down when standing. It often appears nervous and will fly off with a low zig-zagging flight when disturbed.
Length:22cm
Population:
UK breeding:1-2 pairs
UK wintering:910 birds

Like other species in the genus, bee-eaters predominantly eat insects, especially bees, wasps and ants, which are caught in the air by sorties from an open perch. Before swallowing prey, a bee-eater removes stings and breaks the exoskeleton of the prey by repeatedly thrashing it on the perch. Migration is not known but they make seasonal movements in response to rainfall. These birds are somewhat sluggish in the mornings and may be found huddled next to each other on wires sometimes with their bills tucked in their backs well after sunrise. They sand-bathe more frequently than other bee-eater species and will sometimes bathe in water by dipping into water in flight. They are usually seen in small groups and often roost communally in large numbers (200-300). The birds move excitedly at the roost site and call loudly, often explosively dispersing before settling back to the roost tree. The little green bee-eater is also becoming common in urban and sub-urban neighborhoods, and has been observed perching on television antennae, only to launch into a brief, zig-zag flight formation to catch an insect, then return to the same perch and consume the meal. This behaviour is generally observed between the hours of 7:00 and 8:00am, and after 4:00pm.
The breeding season is from March to June. Unlike many bee-eaters, these are often solitary nesters, making a tunnel in a sandy bank. The breeding pairs are often joined by helpers. They nest in hollows in vertical mud banks. The nest tunnel that they construct can run as much as 5 feet long and the 3-5 eggs are laid on the bare ground in the cavity at the end of the tunnel. The eggs are very spherical and glossy white. Clutch size varies with rainfall and insect food density. Both sexes incubate. The eggs hatch asynchronously with an incubation period of about 14 days and the chicks grow fledge in 3 to 4 weeks and in the fledging stage show a reduction in body weight.
A study suggested that green bee-eaters may be capable of interpreting the behaviour of human observers. They showed an ability to predict whether a human at a particular location would be capable of spotting the nest entrance and then behaved appropriately to avoid giving away the nest location. The ability to look at a situation from another's point of view was previously believed to be possessed only by primates.
They feed on flying insects and can sometimes be nuisance to bee-keepers.The preferred prey was mostly beetles followed by hymenopterans. Orthopterans appear to be avoided. They are sometimes known to take crabs. Like most other birds they regurgitate the hard parts of their prey as pellets
An endoparasitic nematode (Torquatoides balanocephala) sometimes infects their gizzard.
