As I was watching the Osprey fly overhead today, this Mallard came skidding in for a landing close to the shoreline.
Quick dash out from the holiday house for this one, couldn't get in the exact position I wanted, but blessed with beautiful light and tranquil calm water.
And the Gull navigated perfectly the tricky landing on ice. At the Harlem Meer, Central Park, New York.
A trip to Slimbridge on 22nd March. Weather was fine but there was a lack of wild ducks and geese compared to the last visit.
Not a bad landing, Just a Greylag Goose having a all over clean up on the South Lake at Slimbridge.
The ancestor of most domestic geese, the Greylag is the largest and bulkiest of the wild geese native to the UK and Europe.
Our airport in summer heat, just after the jet landed, compressed by telephoto and cropping. I had to wait till it was taxing back because this vantage point is closed at the actual landing time. The hills in the background are 13 km away according to Google map. Have a good weekend and safe travelling if you are.
Close up of bird island and one of the residents coming in for a landing. Not a bad shot considering that I am a 600 yards away from the island.
This place is a landing area. No, not for aliens but for bold hanggliders and paragliders starting from the top of the Wiehengebirge. Porta Westfalica, Ostwestfalen, Germany
Bald Eagles at Alert Bay, Cormorant Island

This is a tighter view from pretty much the same spot as my wider angle photo I posted yesterday, looking down at the trail to Angel's Landing at Zion National Park. A few lucky hikers had a very close up view of a California condor. Though it's probably wise to keep your eye on the trail here as people accessional slip off the edge.
