This little White Faced Capuchin suddenly started to react and for a few seconds I thought we were in for some trouble.
We were in the Manuel Antonio National Park where it is strictly forbidden to take food in. All points of entry were pedestrian and a full bag search applied to ensure that no one was taking in anything edible. Someone had clearly smuggled in a few snacks and this little fellow had spotted them. He saw it (a banana if I recall correctly) and swooped and snatched it from the startled visitor. Its animal instinct had taken over and the culprit had a close brush with the more aggressive side of nature and hopefully learnt a lesson.
If the predator gets closer, the freezing response (previous photo in the stream) flips to the flight behavior. I love the little hind paws and shadows on the snow in this photo.
When it rains, you do get lucky to see these kind of scenes on the streets of Bangladesh.

Part 3 - snug as a bug .. just far enough from the fire, beside a tree, back to the North wind .. and of course my favorite.. right beside me
You can see a little blood on Lady Hawks left Talon as she just finished an unlucky mouse lunch. As the great hunter she is, soaring here with much confidence, and a killers instinct!

Flamingoes in Mumbai.. do not die of pollution.....
they thrive on it...........Just like Mumbaites.
They are reported to be killed here only due to illegal poaching at one place and they gradually shifted their habitant towrads other area which is protected Nuclear site in Mumbai ..
Their numbers seems to be steady over the years...
Have they evolved ... enough to survive among the filth and pollution.....?
These are the pictures of the Mahul gaon creek in Mumbai, where sea is surronded from
from three sides.One side is concrete jungle, other side is a fishing village and on remaining side is situated a power plant and a refinery.

I recently saw a joke online about how when fathers go out to get coffee for the family on vacation it's like the modern day equivalent of our ancient ancestors going out to hunt and provide for the family. Definitely made me think, since I basically do that every weekend. Might be some type of primal instinct inside me that propels me to go out and pick up a dozen bagels on a Saturday morning.
This photo is a sister photo to the one I shared last week, "Coffee Run." I made that one when we went to grab coffee and pastries for breakfast, and I made this one when I went out with my daughter to grab pizza and beer for dinner. Both were shot on the same day and both were of trees that I had spotted earlier and identified as potential subjects earlier in the vacation weekend. We drove by this one a couple times per day and it was super vibrant. When we were leaving to go get the food I suspected the light and conditions would be right, so I packed my camera and tripod. Stopped for two minutes en route to make a few frames and the rest was history.
(After writing this, I subsequently found the joke online and I saw it on instagram as a repost from @thedad of a joke by @winomommas).
I saw this guy lying so peacefully on the bench, seemingly slumbering, in the warmth of the sun on an otherwise chilly October day. Tiptoeing across the square towards him, in the very moment I raised the camera to my eye and was about to shoot he looked up. Truly a case of the hunted instinct we all possess, sleeping with one eye open.
I am told that capturing a waterfall with a reflection is a bit on the rare side. It just so happens that on this day at Whatcom Falls, there was nary a breeze and the large piece of bedrock near the base of the drop zone eliminated ripples downstream. The result made for some pretty cool reflections :)

Timber Wolf...on the prowl in our back yard, clearly he is on the hunt here, though he has never hunted a day in his life, he retains those wild instincts of canines...all descendants of the wolf.

Untruth. The stone fidelity
They hardly meant has come to be
Their final blazon, and to prove
Our almost-instinct almost true:
What will survive of us is love"
