Maldon promenade

A visit to Bushy park very early this morning. This was the only Fallow stag who tolerated the Magpies...

 

Magpies are known to pick ticks off of the backs of deer, and other large mammals. It is mutually beneficial for both species — the Magpie gets a meal, and the deer gets rid of ticks...

Barbary Macaque taken through the windscreen yesterday at Woburn Safari Park. He was happy to stay there for ages & my grandchildren loved it. No damage to the car thank goodness.

I love red bootlaces!

Still being unable to get out I am continuing to delve into my archive. This time though I only go back a couple of years to a visit to the local reserve at St Aidans. Alas the photo was taken through some reeds which are just visible in the image.

 

The subjects are a pair of little humbugs seen hitching a ride on a parents back. After the chicks have hatched black-necked grebes will desert the nest and the chicks live on the parents backs for about 4 days. After about 10 days the parents will split the chicks up with each parent taking care of half of the brood. They are independent after another 10 days and fledge in about 3 weeks.

 

The latest news from the reserve is that 18 were spotted on 30th March. Fingers crossed we will be treated to a repeat of such sights in the near future.

Happy Crazy Tuesday

I've always admired the beauty and grace of the sadly now-endangered Whale Shark, and growing up remember watching diving films of curious diving teams encountering them in the wild and hitching a ride. Its distinctive markings still divide the scientific community however, so much is still a mystery.

Australasian Grebe (Tachybaptus novaehollandiae)

 

Great to be able to see the Grebes again today. It looks like just the two chicks in this clutch. I didn't see any of the five chicks in the first clutch actually riding around on the parents back like this so was happy to get this image.

Cheeky wild red squirrel trying to hitch a ride and stowaway

We took the car ferry to get to my daughters from Port Bolivar to Galveston, TX and I looked up and noticed this crew of hitch hikers taking a free ride. I liked the light and the red, white and blue.

 

Happy Friday and have a nice weekend!

Blue damselfly going nautical....

Thie smaller Eastern Painted Turtle was resting atop the larger turtle as they sunned themselves. The bigger one appears to be a Red-eared Slider.

Found in Orvieto, Italy. A highly recommended town.

For Smile on Saturday... "Free Theme"

 

As my grandson and I crossed Port Phillip Bay on a ferry this Silver Gull stayed on the rail for most of the journey.

  

Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

This arch has an interior length of 13 feet and a height of 3 feet.

Takes awhile for me to get a decent shot of this hitch hiker. Now I had completed my collections of 3 Australian grebes hitch hikers. Only takes me 4 years😅

Baby Alligator riding on Mom's back. Alligators are good mothers and go to great lengths to protect their babies from predators. At one point three babies were riding, one actually straddling the Mom's head. Quite remarkable as I've never seen this behavior before, although it is well documented.

Mamma baboon with young in the Masai Mara.

Once again I’m indebted to the gorgeous Volupturaptor Perl for this gorgeous outfit idea featuring the double cuteness of this Zenith shorts and top combo, available now at N21, and this M.Birdie jacket slung over my shoulder. The striking pose is from a brand new set from Signature Pose of which I’m sure I’ll be featuring more!

One cygnet was just too tired to carry on.

This Zebra Dove was looking for a ride to the North Shoe, on Oahu, Hawaii.

Playing with textures and color again today. Hoping your day is filled with light.

Love this old Buick with it's 'rat rod' finish and vintage bike to boot!

This concrete beauty was obviously around when the horse and buggy were popular. I am assuming the fence-like structure is a hitching post. This would be a blank slate for any landscapers. I guess the horses ate the bushes.

I’m going to say this house is abandoned even though it has curtains and blinds. The front door is blocked by lumber. From what I can see through the back windows it looks empty. A concrete bunker (ahem! house) can last for a long time without needing repair. Number 2418 only needs some paint and window repair. The house number strikes me as funny as there were only about 10 houses in this town. HTT!
