At the rear of the services on the M6 Toll road. There is a path which climbs a knoll overlooking the service area and where people are encouraged to walk their dogs. As we passed through yesterday there was a digger on the mound putting in the foundation of a new monument to the air ambulance crews. Despite all the noise I took the path and was astonished to see these deer to the rear of the site where the new housing has been built. Although it was wonderful to see it is perhaps another indication of just how far we have encroached on wildlife habitat.
Love these guys when there posed like this in habitat, they are very beautiful and very photogenic, i.m.h.o. anyway.
Thanks for visiting and I thank you and it is very much appreciated.
I love wide angle photos that show a wild animal and the habitat that it lives in. Earlier in my photo stream I shared a Diamondback rattlesnake in its surroundings. This photo was not that well done. When I edited it I realized that the desert tortoises head was not in sharp focus. This photo was actually pretty difficult to take. Desert tortoises are protected and you are not allowed to touch them.He did not want to stop moving, so I laid down on the ground in front of him so that he would stop just long enough for me to snap this photo. I took this photo on the trail to Sabino canyon north of Tucson Arizona USA
Unlike the orange-crowned warbler that can easily hide its orange crown, the golden-crowned kinglet's golden crown is always on full display. This golden-crowned kinglet is catching gnats and no-see-ums in the wooded grove that acts like a little oasis for migrating songbirds in the open prairie habitat around here. After spending the summer in Canada's vast boreal forest, these hardy golden-crowned kinglets sometimes winter right here in Winneshiek County since they can survive temperatures to -40 F even though they are barely bigger than a hummingbird.
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.

A semi-aquatic mammal native to south and southeast Asia. These otters have sensitive and dexterous front paws which help them locate their prey when they dig around in the mud. Their diet consist primary of crabs, molluscs, frogs and crustaceans. They tend to live in pairs and can form family groups of up to 2 individuals and are the smallest species of otter in the word. Unfortunately they are listed on the IUCN Red List due to habitat loss, pollution and hunting.

Barred Owl
The Barred Owl (Strix varia), also known as the Northern Barred Owl, Striped Owl or, more informally, Hoot Owl, is a North American large species of owl. A member of the true owl family, Strigidae, they belong to the genus Strix, which is also the origin of the family's name under Linnaean taxonomy. Barred owls are largely native to eastern North America but have expanded their range to the west coast of North America where they are considered invasive. Mature forests are their preferred habitat, but they can also acclimate to various gradients of open woodlands. Their diet consists mainly of small mammals, but this species is an opportunistic predator and is known to prey upon other small vertebrates such as birds, reptiles, and amphibians, as well as a variety of invertebrates.

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.
A widely distributed bird seen mostly in open habitats close to water. It is a richly coloured, slender bird. It is predominantly green; with face having a narrow blue patch with a black eye stripe, yellow and brown throat. The tail is blue, from which it derives its name. They breed mostly in river valleys, where they nest by tunneling into loamy sand banks.

The bongo is a large and beautiful antelope that lives in the undergrowth of the jungles of Central Africa. It shuns man but is threatened by hunting and deforestation.
Coat ........: reddish brown ...... with vertical white stripes on the body.
Lyre-shaped horns........ Dark muzzle and thick white line under the eyes.
Habitat: Dense undergrowth in the forests of western and central Africa, as well as an isolated population living in the mountains of Kenya.
Weight & size
1.70 to 2.50 m long and a height at the withers of 1.25 m for a weight between 200 and 400 kg.
Reproduction After a gestation period of 9 months, the female often gives birth to only one cub.
Lifespan 17 to 19 years on average.
Diet Herbivorous: leaves, grasses, roots and fruits.
Poaching and habitat destruction threaten the Bongo. There are two subspecies of the bongo: the mountain bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci) with the status of 'Critically Endangered' with less than a hundred individuals surviving in the wild in a few remote areas of Kenya, and the lowland bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus eurycerus) with the status of 'Near Threatened'.

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.

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.
