The farms in the hollow are slowing down. Soon it will be deer season and I won't be able to hike due to the guns in the woods....

Musk Lorikeet
Glossopsitta concinna
Bird Overview: The Musk Lorikeet specialises in feeding on the nectar which is produced by flowering eucalypts, and sometimes also from the flowers of banksias and grevilleas. They collect nectar with their brush-shaped tongues. Musk Lorikeets are usually seen feeding in large noisy flocks in the canopy of eucalypts, often associating with other nectar-feeding birds, especially Rainbow Lorikeets and honeyeaters. The movements of Musk Lorikeets are often correlated with the flowering of trees, with birds appearing when the trees are in bloom, and leaving after the flowering has finished.
Identification: The Musk Lorikeet is a medium-sized, sturdy lorikeet, sometimes seen in large flocks when trees are flowering and often in mixed flocks with other parrots and other birds. They are active and noisy. This lorikeet is mostly green, with a yellow patch at the side of the breast. It has a bright red forehead and band through the eye to the ear coverts. The crown is blue, with females having less blue than males. In flight, brown flight feathers and the golden tail are revealed. Flight is fast and direct, with short angular wings and a medium-length, pointed to wedge-shaped tail.
Songs and Calls: The usual contact call is a shrill metallic screech, higher than the Rainbow Lorikeet, in flight and when perched. They constantly chatter when feeding.
Habitat: Musk Lorikeets are found in tall, open, dry forest and woodlands, dominated by eucalypts and are usually found in the canopy. They are also seen in suburban areas, parks and street trees. They roost or loaf in tall trees away from their feeding sites.
Behaviour: Musk Lorikeets are gregarious, often mixing with other parrots when feeding, including Scaly-breasted Lorikeets, Little Lorikeets and Swift Parrots.
Feeding: Musk Lorikeets feed in all levels of the canopy and are very active when foraging. They eat mainly pollen and nectar from eucalypts using their specialised brush-tipped tongues, but also eat seeds, fruits and insects and their larvae.
Breeding: Musk Lorikeets breed in hollow branches and holes in living eucalypts, often near watercourses. The entrance holes are usually very small, so they have to squeeze in. Eggs are laid on a base of chewed or decayed wood. The female incubate the eggs and both parents roost in the hollow at night.

She had been innocent once, a little girl playing with feathers on the floor of a devil's lair. She wasn't innocent now, but she didn't know what to do about it.
This was her life: magic and shame and secrets and teeth and a deep, nagging hollow at the center of herself where something was most certainly missing.

Just before I head off to work I thought I'd post one more shot of Hollow Rock. Have a great day everyone.

This photograph was taken around 4:45 AM, few hrs before the sunrise at Hollow Rocks - an iconic landmark of North Shore MN. This pretty island of Lake Superior is located 3 miles south of Grand Portage and 28 miles north of Grand Maris. The sunrise position gets very close the the hollow during winter. I am excited to visit again in winter.
I used a 3stop GND with 10mm FL UWA lens
Captured in Kandy, Sri Lanka.
This guy was sitting by the lake and sharing his snack with the fish and I asked him whether I could take a photo of him after putting some money in his hand.
After post, I was wondering what I'd title this, but couldn't read anything in his expression - at least in my eyes. It was then I thought it's possible that he's been on the street long enough to experience another side of life - that he's looking right though me - the emptiness of it all.
I hiked over to Hollow Brook Falls this afternoon. We've been having a lot of rain this spring and I wanted to shoot the waterfall with a higher than normal water flow. Because of all the rain there were lots of sticks stuck in the waterfall so I got a little wet clearing sticks:) It was a fun way to spend part of the afternoon. Have a great Memorial Weekend!
Hells Hollow is a waterfall located at McConnells Mill State Park in Lawrence County, PA. It is easily accessible via a short hike from the parking lot on Shaffer Rd. at the West end of the park.
Thanks for taking the time to view and comments are always welcome.
we're creeping up on the time of Halloween in the time of corona, so i thought i'd share this. anyone want to hazard a guess on what this might be? the magnifying glass option gives you even more detail.
(the only hint i'll give you right now is that it is
about the size of a marble)

Recent rains turned this Ohio River tributary into a wonderland with its ten waterfalls. Located at Levanna, Ohio. This awesome preserve is owned by the Cardinal Land Trust of Milford, Ohio.
In Bearcat Hollow just north of the Richland Creek Campground in the Richland Creek Wilderness.
Look closely and you can see a fellow hiker in the shadow of the overhang behind the falls.

So as soon as I uploaded this I noticed the lower half of a person I previously tried to edit out and his draping shadow was still in the shot. An embarrassing overlook on my behalf, I wasn't gonna wait to finish setting up the upload to fix that up. So I deleted the photo and fixed it.
Anyways, back to the shot
Before I said the interior of Himeji Castle wasn't that great or photogenic. I stand by that claim, but I realized when scrolling to look for my next photo that I did have this one decent shot. Barely anyone was in the frame and there were these beautifully placed lanterns up close. The reflections of light spilling across the polished floor neatly. The composition was just right.
I guess I rushed through editing cause I keep finding irregularities I don't like that I missed beforehand (even though I already said that above). One thing I couldn't fix was the rafters closer to the roof, believe me I didn't want to keep it dark, but it was too underexposed in the original shot so when I did bring brightness to it, there was noise beyond repair. So I have to leave that as is.

When thinking of Sleep Hollow many people think about the 1999 movie of the same name which showed it a land of large crooked old trees and perpetually immersed in fog which was filmed in England. If you actually go there you will find a very average unassuming rural like suburban town which is being gentrified with luxury townhouse condos being built alone picturesque waterfront and not a demonized Christopher Walken chopping off heads.
