This Green Honeycreeper was impossible to ignore during our visit to Trinidad earlier this month. I find the color on this bird to be just amazing.
We will be doing this trip again in spring of 2019, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2019-trinidad/

While climbing Cader Idris you get this overwhelming view of green: mainly fields, the nearby ones grazed by sheep, distant ones more fertile - and trees.
This very cooperative Green Heron took up a hunting perch on the stick of wood you see here. Normally they stretch out their magic neck while tightly gripping their perch with their feet, and they are strong enough to strike all the way to the surface of the water and pull themselves back into place without ever leaving the perch. In this instance, however, this guy sprung into the water to catch a small minnow. Topaz did a nice job cleaning up the noise and I removed a few small floaters on the surface of the water.

This week's theme for Mosaic Montage Monday was Pink & Green. Intriguing weather with a marbleized sky. HMMM!
So many vintage trucks and automobiles in Nelson, Nevada. Some operable, some not. Whoever owns this place has a serious addiction to collecting old vehicles.
Happy Truck Thursday!
Happy Color My World Day - Green!
In this view from Serra do Cume, dairy cows graze on pastures that stretch out across the Floor of the Cinco Picos Caldera on the island of Terceira. Rock walls, which criss-cross the island, separate the pastures and fields. Serra do Cume marks the eastern rim of the caldera complex.
Why they call this small heron green, I don't quite know. The back is more steel blue than green and the neck is a prominent rust color. This crouched position, while partly concealed in vegetation where they patiently wait for prey, is typical for green herons.
Thank you very much for your views, faves and comments.

Wikipedia: The green bee-eater (Merops orientalis), also known as little green bee-eater, is a near passerine bird in the bee-eater family. It is resident but prone to seasonal movements and is found widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal and the Gambia to Ethiopia, the Nile valley, western Arabia and Asia through India to Vietnam. They are mainly insect eaters and they are found in grassland, thin scrub and forest often quite far from water. Several regional plumage variations are known and several subspecies have been named.

Green Herons are common and widespread, but they can be hard to see at first. Whereas larger herons tend to stand prominently in open parts of wetlands, Green Herons tend to be at the edges, in shallow water, or concealed in vegetation. From a distance, the Green Heron is a dark, stocky bird hunched on slender yellow legs at the water’s edge, often hidden behind a tangle of leaves. Seen up close, it is a striking bird with a velvet-green back, rich chestnut body, and a dark cap often raised into a short crest. These small herons crouch patiently to surprise fish with a snatch of their daggerlike bill. They sometimes lure in fish using small items such as twigs or insects as bait.
