I believe this is a Wolf spider with her egg sac, but am open to correction on that. She is sitting on landscape cloth in the veggie garden.

Mum Elephant was so good at protecting her baby that we never managed to get a full picture of it before they walked away. Taken at Tsavo West National Park, Kenya, Africa. (The red colour is the earth which the elephants cover themselves with to protect against insects and sunburn)
The title above is a complete misnomer, but seems to fit the image.
What you are seeing is one of the very early Los Angeles-class (SSN-688) nuclear attack submarines transitting outbound in the Straits of Gibraltar late in 1980. The old-school break-bulk merchant ship silhouetted on the horizon beyond is coincidentally doing the same thing. They are most definitely not in company or operating together.
This image was taken from aboard HMS Ardent (F184) within a couple of hours of departing Gibraltar heading into the Mediterranean, en route to the Gulf of Oman for the commencement of our participation in Operation Armilla. Seeing what was then such a modern American submarine on the surface was a novelty - no-one aboard had seen a 688 before...
The shot was looking directly into the sun and I have converted it to black and white. Scanned from a slide.
I didn't post this for ages because the circumstances of the encounter made me sad. Heading to the mountains one evening eagle-eyed Dan spotted this moose crossing the road way ahead of us. We stopped roughly where we'd seen her and I got a shock when she suddenly ran up the hill towards us and crossed back over the road heading for a stand of trees. We watched for a bit until we spotted that she had a very young calf hidden in the trees. Heading home the same way late that evening we slowed at the same spot and were surprised to see she was still there. I took some video of the calf nursing hungrily and it was only when I looked at the footage two days later that I realized the calf had a broken or dislocated hind leg. We called Fish and Wildlife but they wouldn't intervene as it was feeding well and not obviously suffering, and moose don't do well in rescue situations - though I'm pretty sure it couldn't walk and the mother was about to abandon it when we first spotted her then her instinct to protect kicked in when we pitched up. I'm not certain but I don't think moose leave their young unattended as deer do. I often wonder what the outcome was..
A recent installation of umbrellas in Southgate shopping centre, Bath. I took some when they were first installed in nice neat rows, but ended up accidentally deleting the images, so returned to take some more. Looks like they took a bit of a battering with the recent weather as they were all over the shop. Still look great though, especially against the dark grey clouds.
Well I'm not pretty sure what I've done here, but I try things.
Still from the workshop with Von Wong and with these two great models : Clara Cloutier & Oli Scar

1 of 3- I wanted some sort of doors or covering on the front of my Barbie house. I can't keep up with dusting it and I wanted to make sure my work was preserved. We found a different brand but the same stuff as plexiglass at Lowes that had a broken off corner. They have it to us for 50% off and cut the two pieces to size. My husband found these thumb screws that will hold them in place but make it easy for me to turn them and remove the "windows". We put weather stripping around the edges of the glass, which makes it nice and airtight. I'm so happy with it!! With the lights on. There are a few things that got knocked over or are askew that I've not adjusted back into place, but I can do that later. I'm so excited for less dusting!!
My thoughts are - besides all other affected persons - with italians 🇮🇹 hence i used disposable gloves in the national colours holding a fever thermometer.

While it's entertaining to watch, it is an abuse of wild animals right to live in the wild unhindered.
These Macaque monkeys are likely poached from the wild as babies.
Their training regime is cruel using starvation, hanging, beating and chaining methods. They are forced to wear masks, dressed as dolls and made to stand on 2 legs for hours.
They are trained to do dance steps, ride bicycles and perform tricks for shoppers and tourists on the streets or at homes. When they aren’t dancing, they are often kept in tiny single cages for prolonged periods of time.
This cruel practice not only raises concerns about animal welfare, but it also poses a high risk of diseases that can spread from animals to humans such as tuberculosis and salmonella.
The macaques (/məˈkɑːk, -ˈkæk/) constitute a genus (Macaca) of gregarious Old World monkeys of the subfamily Cercopithecinae. The 23 species of macaques inhabit ranges throughout Asia, North Africa, and (in Gibraltar) Europe. Macaques are principally frugivorous (preferring fruit), although their diet also includes seeds, leaves, flowers, and tree bark. Some species such as the long-tailed macaque (M. fascicularis; also called the crab-eating macaque) will supplement their diets with small amounts of meat from shellfish, insects, and small mammals. On average, a southern pig-tailed macaque (M. nemestrina) in Malaysia eats about 70 large rats each year. All macaque social groups are arranged around dominant matriarchs.
Macaques are found in a variety of habitats throughout the Asian continent and are highly adaptable. Certain species are synanthropic, having learned to live alongside humans, but they have become problematic in urban areas in Southeast Asia and are not suitable to live with, as they can carry transmittable diseases.
Most macaque species are listed as vulnerable to critically endangered on the International Union of the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List.
Several species of macaque are used extensively in animal testing, particularly in the neuroscience of visual perception and the visual system.
Nearly all (73–100%) captive rhesus macaques are carriers of the herpes B virus. This virus is harmless to macaques, but infections of humans, while rare, are potentially fatal, a risk that makes macaques unsuitable as pets.
Urban performing macaques also carried simian foamy virus, suggesting they could be involved in the species-to-species jump of similar retroviruses to humans. House trained Macque monkey-d.mp4

This past week, California became the first state to ban fur trapping! Thank you to Governor Newsom for signing into law the Wildlife Protection Act of 2019 which prohibits commercial or recreational trapping on both public and private lands.
Coyotes are still subject to merciless persecution in other ways, but it’s one step forward in a wildlife model that desperately needs revision, in accordance with our modern understandings.
[I photographed this beautiful coyote last year in a coastal area of Northern California. S/he was loafing in the late afternoon sun with coyote family members, and stopped for a moment to look back at us as they moved through the tall grass and stalks.]

For those who know me, you also know my opinion about the use of camo attire. For those who don’t and deem the expenditure of time worth the effort, check out this link: `www.flickr.com/photos/earl_reinink/5385999488/in/album-72...
Since God is no longer in control, we now bow to the whims and will of our elected officials who have deemed that social distancing is the new norm. Glad I am married! How does one date the woman of his dreams from 2 metres? Try being intimate from that distance! Good luck having kids… Darn, I am off topic.
I have seen many images on social media, people wearing masks, scarves, hankies and diapers over the face, and even one fool with a plastic bag over his head (he certainly won’t die of virus, but will probably die of stupidity or asphyxiation)!
I decided to do my part. I dug into my camo closet and came up with this solution to the shortage of face masks. It comes with many benefits. For example, yesterday I managed to slip into first place in line-up at a busy store, no one saw me. Got to the toilet paper first, bought a one-year supply, cleaned out the hand sanitizer selection, stocked up on Vodka (in the event I ran out of sanitizer). Threw a camo tarp over buggy on the way out, managed to get to truck un-noticed.
Merits of said attire:
1. Readily available at Bass Pro for just a few loonies.
2. Reversible in case one snots in their mask
3. Washable / re-usable
4. Undetectable - feel free to roam in your favored park or attend Easter service.
5. No need to do hair or make-up (that's for women, Ramen, Chuck and John).
6. Water-proof model provides airborne spray protection.
