Il capolino fiorale di un cardo non è cosa semplice. Si tratta, in realtà, di parecchie decine di fiori, collocati in strette sequenze concentriche. Questo significa che visitarli tutti e dunque inserire la spiritromba in ciascuno, alla ricerca del nettare, divine una missione impegnativa per una farfalla. Missione a cui la stessa farfalla, in questo caso un Macaone, si dedica comunque con ammirabile solerzia ..... ..

Il fior di loto è sbocciato e sta esponendo al sole la sua magnificenza. E' gigantesco, ma un piccolo sirfide sembra non scoraggiarsi e si accinge ad esplorare le riserve di nettare e di polline del fiore. La sua è una missione impegnativa e probabilmente, nel continente asiatico, in cui la pianta è autoctona, i pronubi sono di specie e dimensioni diverse. In questo caso, però, il Sistema Naturale ha trovato questa soluzione ..... ..

Salyx, thinking...

She was wondering what camouflage, tools and equipment she would need in order to scale the eight foot, wrought iron bird feeders we’ve erected in the garden.

She knows it’s impossible.

After the weasel dragged a carcass away from me, he/she stopped and kind of "breathed a sigh of relief" :)

I hope I did not cause stress to the animal. He/she was cautious, but did not seemed to be too alarmed. That strange, motionless "pole" with a quiet camera earned trust of the animal :)

Every year it's the same. A single week of beautiful sunny autumn weather with trees in unbelievable full color and the trouble to hit a free day to be able to chase it with the camera. Too early or too late means much less or no color at all in trees and a year to be wasted. Luckily I've made it again, phew! Mission accomplished...

Mission San José de Tumacácori.

Founded by Jesuit Father Eusebio Francisco Kino in January 1691, Mission San Cayetano de Tumacácori was the first mission to be located in what is now Arizona, and was part of the global Spanish mission system of colonization that attempted to create a self-sufficient agricultural community, convert local Indians to the Catholic religion, and generate revenue for Spain.

Bald eagle with meal low over the river in the morning light.

Realising yesterday that Mars Mission is fifteen years old meant I suddenly had to build another Claw Tank tribute. This one is moving away from the original set and into a more GI Joe design, big and chonk, equal parts aggressive and goofy. I had the large orange treaded WIP lying around for ages (a failed Hibernia digger) so most of that got remixed into this monstrosity.

I swear I'll get up a better pic, but I wasn't able to due to trip activity, and I had to post it tonight.

San Xavier del Boc Mission -

Tuscon, Arizona, United States

Here's another photo I never published. From a trip to Tuscon in 2012, this winter scene was shot at the Mission San Xavier del Boc south of the city.

That poor fish never had a chance.

At the arboretum it's not unusual for the Egret to take off and fly across to the other side of the lake. And yet, it's nearly impossible for me to be able to capture the moment!

During this trip, however, I managed to actually get it in frame just moments before it landed high in a tree at the far end of the lake. Would have preferred to have it flying toward me instead of away, but that reflection makes it worthwhile in my book.
