Great Potoo - Wild - At Pantanal - MT.
With its characteristic drawn-out moaning growl, the vocalizations of the Great Potoo are among the most exciting and perhaps most unsettling nocturnal sounds in the Neotropics. Apart from its vocalizations, the Great Potoo is an intriguing species. Great Potoos are nocturnal and feed on large flying insects, and occasionally bats, which they capture in sallies from a high perch. During the day, they remain motionless in mimic of broken tree branches. The Great Potoo is distributed throughout humid and semihumid forested habitats in Central and South America. Across this vast region, there is little geographic variation in size or in plumage; two subspecies sometimes are recognized, but these do not differ greatly from each other. Despite the lack of conspicuous geographic variation, populations on either side of the Andes have been found to be very distinct genetically. This level of divergence is similar to the genetic divergence found between other species of potoo, pointing the possibility for ‘cryptic’ species within the Great Potoo lineage. neotropical.birds.cornell.edu/Species-Account/nb/species/...

Les objectifs à très grandes ouvertures, souvent appelés les “bokeh masters”, font rêver. Ultra lumineux, ils permettent de travailler en basse lumière, créer une profondeur de champ très réduite et magnifier un sujet en développant un flou en avant/arrière très prononcé.

Very wide aperture lenses, often called “bokeh masters”, are the stuff of dreams. Ultra-bright, they allow you to work in low light, create a very shallow depth of field and magnify a subject by developing a very pronounced front-to-back blur.

This week the theme was old masters. I was looking through pictures by the old masters and chose dogs as topic. I was trying to emulate John Emms, I am not sure how successful I was. Moose wasn't thrilled about being up on the crate no matter how many treats were offered. He was finally persuaded up on the but then he wouldn't perk his ears. He still looks cute with his ears the way they are.

The Grayling is the UK’s largest brown butterfly and a master of camouflage! The mottled brown under wings enable the Grayling to blend in with the background. They always rest with their wings closed, and can regulate their body temperature by orienting its body in relation to the sun. This tactic can also help in increasing camouflage by angling their wings to cast less of a shadow.
Graylings can be found flying along dry, sandy heathland tracks from July to mid-September. They can also be found at coastal sites.
Graylings have eye spots on their wings which enables them to surprise would-be predators.
Adult graylings will take nectar from a range of sources, including bell heather and brambles. Caterpillar Foodplants
include Sheep's-fescue (Festuca ovina), Red Fescue (F. rubra), Bristle Bent (Agrostis curtisii), and Early Hair-grass (Aira praecox). Coarser grasses such as Tufted Hair-grass (Deschampsia cespitosa) and Marram (Ammophila arenaria) are occasionally used.
The Grayling is widespread on the coast and southern heaths but is declining in many areas, particularly inland. Many colonies occur on coastal habitats such as; dunes, saltmarsh, undercliffs and clifftops. There are inland colonies on habitats including; dry heathland, chalk grassland, old quarries, earthworks, derelict industrial sites - such as old spoil heaps and very occasionally in open woodland on stony ground.
1- Woke up early in the morning
Routine stretching'n limbering.
Paddeling out to the breakline
Waiting for the perfect wave
Let's take off and freely ride
I'm the master of the seas
Surfing Pacific,
Surf en Atlantique
Surf by the island,
Surfer dans les Landes
On the wave, through the wave, in the wave, surfing... (spoken) Sur la vague, dans la vague, sous la vague,
Surfing...
2- Load my shortboard on the Chevy
Early wake before the sun
Heard ‘bout a reef that's pretty testy
Not to mention to my mum
Let's take off free as a bird
I'll be champion of the world
3- He who created sun and moon
He who gave us earth and seas
Praise him at midnight and noon
Praise him for his mighty deeds
Let's take off and be inspired
He's the master of it all
He who created sun and moon
He who gave us earth and seas
Praise him at midnight and noon
Praise him for his mighty deeds
Let's take off and be inspired
He's the master of it all
