Always such a photogenic bird - this was taken at the end of the day when the light picked out this white Intermediate Egret against the dark background

 

With the wind ruffling the feathers - this one is in full breeding colours and plumage.

Intermediate Egret, taken in strong early morning light (Man Sagar Lake) Jaipur, India. A beautiful place to stand and take photos..

Taken at Sandy Camp Rd Wetlands Reserve, Lytton, Queensland.

 

The Intermediate Egret is similar to Australia’s other all-white egrets. The Little Egret is distinguished by its long, black bill. The Great Egret is distinguished by its proportionally longer neck and flat-headed appearance and has a distinct gape that extends well behind the eye. Cattle Egrets are much shorter and dumpier with a stouter bill.

An extension ring extends the distance between your lens and the camera sensor. This reduces the minimum focus distance and allows you to focus closer to your subject. This allows you to depict your subject larger than if you had used the lens without extension rings. www.fotograferenindenatuur.nl/tussenringen-interessant-vo....

Back in the late 1950's and early '60's, orchid breeders were fascinated by the complex Oncidae

alliances that they could create. Many were crosses of warm and cool growing varieties in the hope that they could be induced to grow in a broader range of conditions.

 

One such inter generic cross was the merging of Oncidium, Miltonopsis, and Odontoglossum. The cross was named Colmanara after the famous English breeder, Sir Jeremiah Coleman.

In 1992, Rod McLellan registered his cross of Ons. Rustic Bridge X Onc. Crownborough and named it Colm. Wildcat.

 

Like most other Colmanara's, Wildcat is a cool to intermediate grower. Wintertime lows can

comfortably reach 55-60 degrees. Summer daytime highs should be kept below 80-85 degrees F. These conditions can be met even in West Central Florida if you grow them in bright shade and high humidity with good air movement.

 

Wildcat is a complex cross, made up of seven or eight species. Colors of the parents cover the

spectrum from crisp clear yellows, browns, mahogany, and ranging through heavy waxy maroons and reds. -Wikipedia

The Intermediate Egret has similar features with the Great Egret. They differ though as follows:

a. The Intermediate Egret is smaller than the Great Egret.

b. The gape underneath the eyes end at the rear of the eyes.

c. Does not have the large kink in the throat of the Great Egret.

Intermediate by name this species is half way in size between a Little Egret and the Great White. Taken in isolation when no size comparison is possible it can be separated by the lack of head plumes (Little) and the shorter neck (very long in Great White). The clincher is in the gape which extends well past the eye in the Great White. This one was easy as it is in breeding condition with the orange bill and greenish facial skin

MY VISIT TO KOLKATA ZOO - 17 [ This series is dedicated to my elder brother HGM ]

 

PLEASE VIEW AT MAXIMUM TO GET MAXIMUM OUT OF IT

 

This is the image of a series called " MY VISIT TO KOLKATA ZOO ". This zoo is very unfriendly for the Photographers. Most of the animals and birds are kept in thick netting [sometimes multiple] with iron bars and Railings to keep the on lookers away from the cage. So the scope of Photography is very limited here. One has to use a telephoto lens above 400 mm to zoom out those bars and nettings to obtain an uninterrupted image of the display. This can be done only when the subject remains in a particular distance from the cage nettings.

A Hagoromo Intermediate Incurve Chrysanthemum.

 

Etymological Meaning of the Chrysanthemum Flower

 

It’s surprisingly easy to remember the scientific name for this flower because it’s Chrysanthemum, the same as the common name for gardening varieties.

However, the exhibition varieties used by florists and arrangers were divided into their own genus known as Dendranthema.

 

The mums in your yard are likely part of the Chrysanthemum group, while the bouquet sent by the florist contains all or mostly Dendranthema flowers.

 

Aside from small Latin differences, all Chrysanthemums share a common Greek source for their name.

The words Chrysos, meaning gold, and Anthemon, meaning flower, were combined to reflect the beauty and value of this blossom.

This name carries over the Chinese and Japanese translations, which literally mean gold flower or blossom as well.

From the same plant, it is fascinating to see the differences.

Like people in one family, LOL.

Have a super day and thank you for your ever welcome comments and visit, M, (*_*)
