Sand Forest is an increasingly rare habitat found in Kwazulu Natal (South Africa) and southern Mozambique. Many interesting mammals and birds inhabit these beautiful forests.`
This male Narina Trogon was - as usual - sitting with its back to us and then it moved to this spot for just a brief moment.

ZAANDAM, Vijfhoekpark - Wanneer je tegenwoordig het park bezoekt kun je echt op ontdekkingsreis. Het is het leefgebied van de trotse Schotse Hooglanders. Het is een mooi park, anders dan in de overige mooie parken van Zaandam.
ZAANDAM, Vijfhoekpark - when you visit the park nowadays you can really explore. It is the Habitat of the proud Scottish Highlanders. I think it's a lovely park because it's different from the other beautiful parks in Zaandam.
Panther Chameleons by Jian

The habitat is rezzed decor.
Rez it out and the included chameleon will automatically begin to animate.
Click on it to get options to stop animations and resize.
To add more chameleons, rez out the "solo placer" or "stick placer".
Each are a single additional chameleon that you can place wherever you see fit, in the habitat or otherwise.

Add or wear your held chameleon and it will attach to your right hand and begin to animate, as well as override your animations for that arm.
From here you have some options...

It's always nice to see these guys folks especially when eating and a mouthful of goodies.
Thanks as always for stopping by and for all the very kind words, much appreciated.
The distinctive concrete units of Montreal's Habitat 67, an experimental modular housing complex designed by renown architect Moshe Safdie. Conceived as his master's thesis in architecture at McGill University, Safdie was awarded the project to be built as a pavilion for Expo 67, despite his relative inexperience. In the spirit of a new openness that characterized this period, the exhibition was entitled “Man and his World” after Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s philosophical memoire. Housing was one of the main themes of Expo 67 Habitat 67 comprises over 350 prefabricated concrete boxes arranged in various combinations which was envisioned as the future for urban living.

Snowy Egret
The Snowy Egret (Egretta thula) is a small white heron. It is the American counterpart to the very similar Old World little egret, which has established a foothold in the Bahamas. At one time, the beautiful plumes of the snowy egret were in great demand by market hunters as decorations for women's hats. This reduced the population of the species to dangerously low levels. Now protected in the United States by law, under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, this bird's population has rebounded.

This is a wetland habitat. Do not disturb it. A makeshift sign and a fence of fallen branches help to protect it.

I enjoy doing habitat shot even further away than this image. When I see the possibility of doing it, I sure take the time to place myself and wait for wildlife to swim by in a two to three foreground dimensions.
Reddish Egret
The Reddish Egret (Egretta rufescens) is a medium-sized heron. It is a resident breeder in Central America, The Bahamas, the Caribbean, the Gulf Coast of the United States, and Mexico. There is post-breeding dispersal to well north of the nesting range. In the past, this bird was a victim of the plume trade.
According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, there are only 1,500 to 2,000 nesting pairs of reddish egrets in the United States — and most of these are in Texas. They are classified as "Threatened" in Texas and receive special protection.
Egrets are herons which have white or buff plumage and develop fine plumes (usually milky white) during the breeding season. Egrets are not a biologically distinct group from the herons and have the same build.

Been out of circulation again for a couple of days so apologies for no comments etc.
In spite of my love of big otter close-ups this is one of my favourite shots from the recent Mull trip. This is the same otter as in the previous post making his way back to shore - I liked the contrast of the black of the rock and the golden yellow of the sea weed. Such a special place with very special wildlife - long may it remain that way.
And look at those whiskers!

Habitat 67, emblème de l’habitation novatrice, a été créé dans le cadre d’Expo 67 par l'architecte Moshe Safdie. Ce bâtiment extravagant par sa modernité marque le paysage montréalais depuis, au même titre qu’un monument historique.
I have no idea what this clump is ! but it keeps popping up in the gravel... must be due to all this horrid wet weather !!!
Keep warm and cosy dear friends :0)
Mono Lake is a critical nesting habitat hosting over 2,000,000 waterbirds, including 35 species of shorebirds, use Mono Lake to rest and eat for at least part of the year.
Another one of Melbourne's hidden gems, located in plain sight. The park has literally been designed as a habitat for wildlife in the CBD. It's fenced off to the public and a challenge to reach. The artwork is brilliant, with a series of heavily leaning structures representing falling skyscrapers. The structures themselves are covered in solar panels to run the light show. The park is in the centre of the Westgate Freeway's "clover leaf" offramp to Power Street. I've literally driven passed this park hundreds of times over the past decade and never knew it existed. It's quite spectacular at night, but access, roads, trees and spotlights made it a real challenge to get a good photo that does it justice.
This park will be on my to-do list for further investigation during the day/sunset.
Good Monday morning everyone, took a day off yesterday and did not post an image, but still have many Hawk images for the future.
Have a great day everyone, and thank you all so very much for stopping by, so very much appreciated.

This 4 week old Great Horned Owl was photographed in Lancaster County PA, USA
With its long, earlike tufts, intimidating yellow-eyed stare, and deep hooting voice, the Great Horned Owl is the quintessential owl of storybooks. This powerful predator can take down birds and mammals even larger than itself, but it also dines on daintier fare such as tiny scorpions, mice, and frogs. It’s one of the most common owls in North America, equally at home in deserts, wetlands, forests, grasslands, backyards, cities, and almost any other semi-open habitat between the Arctic and the tropics.
