So Yesterday I was invited to go out and document a pheasant shoot. It was still early in the morning and the ground still very frosty. I have never previously done anything like this, but it was still good fun. The location was Kent, England.
In the right side of the frame you can see the beaters who go round with large white noisy flags that they swipe the ground and bushes with.

This least bittern was seen hunting in the marsh at Winding Waters Natural Area in West Palm Beach, Florida. Prints, and much more, are available on my website at www.tom-claud.pixels.com.
Our local wild Green Tree Frog (Litoria caerulea) hunting on a pile of old palm fronds in our backyard tonight 🐸
White-faced Heron (Egretta novaehollandiae)
This Heron is often seen hunting in the Highway Paddock.
In the end the distance and stupidly high ISO is secondary to the joy of watching a barn owl (Tyto alba) hunting.
One thing that's fun about railfanning here is the constant surprise of trains. While waiting to get this last shot of the Sebring Turn rolling into town as seen here: flic.kr/p/2qTWjFi I heard horns southeast of me and was surprised by two back to back jobs headed west (railroad north) on the SCFE main out into the cane fields about 20 minutes before the SBT came south. This was a nice opportunity to try this angle out which I did not prefer and went with something different for the turn as you saw, but I'm just dropping one shot of each into the trip journal.
I believe the first train was Cane 1 with a string of empty cane cars trailing USSC 4204, a GP40-2 built new in Dec. 1977 as Boston and Maine 302. Three minutes behind them whipped what I believe was Cane 3 running light engine with USSC 3804 a GP38-2 that was built new in Oct. 1974 for the San Manuel Arizona Railroad as SMA 17. They are approaching the busy US Hwy 27 grade crossing as they leave the city limits running on a fill between two canals here at about MP 946 as measured from Richmond, VA via the historic Atlantic Coast Line main.
Wholly owned by US Sugar Corp. as their common carrier railroad subsidiary, this particular trackage was built about 1922 by the Atlantic Coast Line and remained with ACL successors SCL and SBD until becoming part of CSX. The latter finally sold this branch line in June 1990 to the Brandywine Valley Railroad, a Lukens Steel Company subsidiary which operated it as the SCFE. Four years later they sold the railroad to its largest customer, U.S. Sugar which operates it as a separate company semi independent from the 119 miles of private non common carrier branch lines they already owned.

A whitetail doe sniffs around for apples under this old apple tree at the Peaks of Otter on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia…
or the tactics of communication guerrilla ...
hunting Banksy near Southampton ... I almost caught him ... ;-) ...
Banksy is nowadays often mentioned in one breath with Picasso, Van Gogh and similar famous artists ...
one of his artworks changed hands for 18 million dollars ...
Von Wiki erfuhr ich, dass Banksy (* vermutlich 1973 oder 1974 in oder in der Nähe von Bristol, England) das Pseudonym eines britischen Streetart-Künstlers ist. Seine Schablonengraffiti wurden anfangs in Bristol und London bekannt.
Seine Aktivitäten auch außerhalb des Vereinigten Königreichs machten Banksy weltweit bekannt. Banksy bemüht sich, seinen bürgerlichen Namen sowie seine wahre Identität geheim zu halten.
Es wird spekuliert, dass der Brite Robin Gunningham Banksy ist. Andere Spekulationen halten Banksy für eine Frau oder den Teil eines Kollektivs.
Inhaltsverzeichnis
Banksy bedient sich der Taktiken der Kommunikationsguerilla, insbesondere bei seinen Inspirationsquellen (wie beispielsweise der des französischen Pochoir-Künstlers Blek le Rat und Massive Attacks Frontman Robert del Naja, alias 3D) und der Adbusters, um eine alternative Sichtweise auf politische und wirtschaftliche Themen zu bieten.
Er verändert und modifiziert dabei oftmals bekannte Motive und Bilder. Er nahm Auftragsarbeiten für wohltätige Zwecke an (beispielsweise für Greenpeace) und gestaltete eine Reihe von CD-Covern, u. a. für das Label Wall of Sound sowie 2003 für die Band Blur. Als Künstler wirkte er bisher in Australien, Frankreich, Deutschland, Großbritannien, Israel, Italien, Jamaika, Japan, Kanada, Kuba, Mali, Mexiko, Österreich, den Palästinensischen Autonomiegebieten, Spanien, der Ukraine und den USA.
Neben der Umsetzung von Schablonen-Graffiti installierte Banksy eigene Arbeiten auch unautorisiert in Museen. Auf diese Weise hingen Arbeiten von ihm im Londoner Tate Modern, New Yorker Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum, American Museum of Natural History und im Louvre. Im Mai 2005 wurde Banksys Version einer Höhlenmalerei, die einen jagenden Menschen mit Einkaufswagen zeigte, im British Museum gefunden.
Seit 1999 zeigte Banksy seine Werke mehrfach in selbst organisierten Ausstellungen, da er Galerien sowie den traditionellen Kunstbetrieb dem Vernehmen nach ablehnt.[8] Die erste Einzelausstellung fand im Jahr 2000 im Restaurant Severnshed in Bristol statt. Gezeigt wurde unter anderem die bekannte Bilderreihe Simple Intelligence Testing in Dumb Animals.
In der Turf-War-Ausstellung 2003 in einer Londoner Lagerhalle waren u. a. lebende, von ihm bemalte Tiere zu sehen. 2006 fand in Los Angeles die Banksy-Ausstellung Barely Legal statt, wieder in einer Lagerhalle, zu der 30.000 Besucher kamen.[9] Seine Ausstellung Banksy vs. Bristol Museum zog 2009 in nur sechs Wochen 308.719 Besucher an. Seine Ablehnung des Kunstbetriebs demonstrierte auch eine Aktion in New York im Oktober 2013, bei welcher Bilder zu Schnäppchenpreisen an unwissende Laien verkauft wurden.
English
Banksy (* probably 1973 or 1974 in or near Bristol, England) is the pseudonym of a British street artist. His stencil graffiti initially became known in Bristol and London.
His activities also outside the United Kingdom made Banksy known worldwide. Banksy strives to keep his civil name as well as his true identity a secret.
It is speculated that the Briton Robin Gunningham is Banksy. Other speculations consider Banksy to be a woman or the part of a collective.

Banksy uses the tactics of communication guerrilla, particularly with his sources of inspiration (such as those of French pochoir artist Blek le Rat and Massive Attacks frontman Robert del Naja, a.k.a. 3D) and the Adbusters, to offer an alternative take on political and economic issues.
In doing so, he often changes and modifies familiar motifs and images. He has accepted commissions for charities (such as Greenpeace) and has designed a number of CD covers, including for the Wall of Sound label and, in 2003, for the band Blur. As an artist he has worked in Australia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Canada, Cuba, Mali, Mexico, Austria, the Palestinian Territories, Spain, Ukraine and the USA.
In addition to implementing stencil graffiti, Banksy also installed his own works in museums without authorization. In this way, works of his hung in London's Tate Modern, New York's Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Brooklyn Museum, American Museum of Natural History and the Louvre. In May 2005, Banksy's version of a cave painting depicting a chasing human with a shopping cart was found in the British Museum.
Since 1999, Banksy has shown his work several times in self-organized exhibitions, as he reportedly rejects galleries as well as the traditional art establishment.[8] The first solo exhibition was held in 2000 at the Severnshed restaurant in Bristol. Among the works on display was the well-known series of paintings Simple Intelligence Testing in Dumb Animals.
The 2003 Turf War exhibition in a London warehouse included live animals painted by him. In 2006, Banksy's exhibition Barely Legal was held in Los Angeles, again in a warehouse, and attracted 30,000 visitors.[9] His 2009 exhibition Banksy vs. Bristol Museum attracted 308,719 visitors in just six weeks. His rejection of the art establishment was also demonstrated by an action in New York in October 2013, in which paintings were sold at bargain prices to ignorant laypeople.

Found on my doorstep this evening! I think her back is carrying babies but depth of field with the macro lens is too shallow, she didn't stick around long enough for stacking.
A rainstorm the day before had flooded the wildflower fields. There were several herons & egrets hunting for the crawdads popping up all over the meadow. This night heron was watching a crawdad hole intently.

After hunkering down behind a drystone wall it was a real privilege to watch this Barn Owl quartering the nearby moorland.
This was excellent. Along the Mississippi in a marsh area with about 50 or more eagles. I thought at first, they were hunting muskrats but no, I saw movement in the water, and it was a huge population of mice trying to find high ground after the ice had melt. I have one photo with an eagle looking at the mouse.
After waiting an hour and a half, to no avail, to shoot a male Northern harrier that regularly flies in this area, the sun went down and I was about to return to my car. Luckily, I looked up to see this Western coyote hunting right where I'd hoped to catch the harrier. I was able to get lots of shots, including one with this guy calmly looking straight at me. He marked his territory and hunted for several minutes before moving along.
Modern cameras are amazing, keeping almost all shots in focus, despite the low light and this tall prairie grass. Shooting 120 frames per second allows me to pick what I feel is the ideal shot, at the peak of the leap.
