This year there are 2 coot's nest very near (less than 50m of distance). In the first nest (the castle) chicks are already born and mom and dad swim with there babies. In the second nest the female is still hatching her eggs and the male is guarding his territory alone. So when the family enter his territory he run on them but in front both mom and dad run on him and there is a fight 2 vs 1 and he cant win this fight, anyway mom and dad and the family go backward because there is too much riskies for the chicks to go here.
Cette année il y a 2 couples de foulques qui nichent très près (à moins de 50m de distance). Dans le premier nid (le château), les poussins sont déjà nés et maman et papa nagent avec leurs bébés. Dans le deuxième nid, la femelle est encore en train de couver ses œufs et le mâle garde seul son territoire. Donc quand la famille entre sur son territoire il court sur eux mais en face maman et papa courent sur lui et il y a un combat 2 contre 1 et il ne peut pas à gagner ce combat, néanmoins à la fin maman et papa et la famille reculent parce qu'il y a trop de risques pour les poussins d'aller ici.

No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.
John Donne
In snowy nature, the short branches of spruce are useful. Less snow accumulates. Such spruces are called candle trees.
With less than 18 minutes left to work, UP train YKS62-29 tries making it as close as it can to UP's 18th St. Yard with a transfer drag from KCS's Knoche Yard. They're seen here on Main Track 1 of the UP KC Metro Sub by St. Louis Ave. A pair of SD40N's provide the power as usual. 5/29/21.
One of the most numerous and widespread diving ducks in North America, especially on inland waters. Can be very active when feeding, diving and surfacing repeatedly. In winter often seen on lakes and bays in dense flocks, numbering hundreds or even thousands, and often with no other species of ducks associated with them. The two species of scaup sometimes occur in the same places, but they tend to keep to themselves rather than mixing freely.

Smile on Saturday - Less Is More (Minimalism)
A couple of Canon body caps and a Fitbit charging cable strategically placed on a yellow T-shirt. Hope this makes you smile on Saturday. :-)
As I prepare for this years #Photo24London event it seemed apt that I interupt my Norfolk shots and upload this alternative versions of one of my favourite shots from last years event. Given the less than brilliant weather forecast I suspect this tunnel under Kings Cross might be somewhere I return too this year........

for the first time this year i was go by bike and took a look at the nearby locations like this lake, alot of people i meet here, all enjoy the clean nature around here, i like this too because thats one of the rare lakes without privat areas directly on it and no motorboats are allowed here so the water and nature quality holds on here
Or more less...
Or more or less... the same?
We were lucky enough to catch a burst of warm sunlight around evening time on a cloudy day, that lit up the bright yellow of the rapeseed, producing this beautiful contrast of warm yellow and cool blue.
Tried a number of compositions using the same elements, but in the end liked this sweeping, fairly minimalist shot, as it captured the flavour of the location and time the best - relatively flat, open countryside, with broad, sweeping sky, and cool, though bright conditions.
