The mares in this small band of wild horses are huddled up over the hill. Their stallion is between them and a couple of horseback riders, the cause of their concern. They watched intently. The stallion postured. The riders went away.
Wild horses are wary of people but very concerned about horseback riders. Can you imagine what that looks like to a wild horse? A centaur? A slave? A formidable foe?

There was a lot of bustling at the feeders this past week.
This huddle of starlings were sharing the feeder with two red-headed woodpeckers. They wisely kept to themselves.

When some Homo Sapiens youth walked by enroute to the nearby park these Odocoileus Hemionus (Mule Deer) youth figured they better huddle up and analyze the situation.
While outside the temperatures fall bellow -40°C, the emperor penguins keep themselves warm in a so called huddle. Within such an huddle the animals change from time to time their positions such that every animal benefits of this course of action. However this does them not prevent from being completely covered by the icy frost.
Since the female animals generally are not present during this time of the season, the males are breeding the eggs and taking care for the chicks.
I really like the D90 but the lens I am using is very soft and I think I need an upgrade. I guess being spoiled by the Z range of lenses on my Z6 has'nt helped with my expectations to be fair. IR photography is more forgiving than most other forms as you are almost expected to have softer, dreamier images to add to the surrealism of them but I feel the old 18-55mm kit lens I have is just not up to the task.
Still not decided what I am doing next week but its looking more and more like I will be heading down to the Dorset coast to reimagine some older images of mine with a, hopefully more experienced eye and better kit than my last visits.
Mottled Duck - mother (far-left) - and her eight big chicks

She actually was protecting them from me! She saw me
(about 25 feet away on-the-bank), yet her motherly instinct
was to 'huddle-them' together, and they all followed with every
directional-movement of her-orange-bill...perfectly! Fascinating!
Isn't Nature Great!?! Enjoy your summer. Thanks for looking.

Class 158 diesel multiple unit No. 158830 arrives at Hereford station with 1W92, the 09:22 Cardiff Central to Holyhead service on Saturday 12th October 2024.
Taken sometime ago while living in the UK. Feels like a lifetime ago. Do miss getting out with the camera as much as I did back then. Oh well...
NECR turn job 611, in the care of Providence & Worcester's veterans tribute unit, sits in Palmer. On the front steps, the crew huddles with their counterparts from train 603, where they figure out the game plan for swapping trains so 611 can turn and burn back to Vermont.
This was 6 vertical shots stitched.
The red hut on the far left is where we called home for a few days in February 2014.

The rock that appears to be huddled at the side of a larger rock is the size of a small car.
There are a lot of interesting rock formations in Joshua Tree National Park.
Reverse mounted lens for this macro shot of a succulent flower with a very narrow depth of field, about the size of a little-finger nail.
At half time, the Gryffindor broomsticks huddle together discussing tactics for the second half of the quiddich match.
While the Snitch flies around trying to listen in to keep out of their clutches in the second half.
The Golden Snitch is a stock item, but has been "animated" by myself.

Beautiful little Bee-eaters creating a bit of symmetry whist warming up in the early morning sunshine. It can be pretty chilly on a winters day along the Chobe River.
This green heron was huddled down in a marsh in central Florida near the town of Christmas.
