Cyanocorax yncas galeatus (Inca Jay / Carriquí)
The juvenile is to the right of the photo. These birds quickly reach almost the same size as their parents. At this stage, they still do not feed themselves but timidly wait, hidden among the branches, for their parents to feed them.
The Inca jay (Cyanocorax yncas) is a bird species of the New World jays, which is endemic to the Andes of South America.
Their basic diet consists of arthropods, vertebrates, seeds, and fruit.
The range extends southwards in the Andes from Colombia and Venezuela through Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia.

Atlapetes albinucha gutturalis

The Yellow-throated brush finch ranges from Mexico to the mountains of W Colombia. All forms of this brush-finch have a white stripe down the midline of the crown from the forehead to the nape.
White-naped Brush-finches are found in subtropical to temperate elevations, from 1200 to 3100 m in elevation. They forage on the ground, often in family groups.

Parents today have more struggles than in any other time, I'm convinced.

Green-headed tanager - The Green-headed Tanager is one of the most common and widely distributed species of Tangara in the forests of southeastern Brazil; its distribution also extends into southeastern Paraguay and northeastern Argentina. Green-headed Tanagers forage in the canopy of humid forest and forest edge, and also enter adjacent second-growth, where they may forage closer to the ground. They usually travel in small flocks, either on their own or in association with a larger mixed-species flock. The diet consists both of fruit and arthropods; when foraging for arthropods, they hop along slender to medium-sized branches, and glean prey from branch surfaces and from leaves. The sister species to the Green-headed Tanager is the Seven-colored Tanager (Tangara fastuosa), a similar tanager found in northeastern Brazil. Although the behavior and plumage pattern of the Green-headed and Seven-colored tanagers are similar to those of the Paradise Tanager (Tangara chilensis) of Amazonia, these two species are not closely related to the Paradise Tanager. Instead, the Green-headed and Seven-colored tanagers are part of small radiation of tanagers that are not similar to one another in appearance, but all are endemic to the Atlantic Forest region; the other members of this group are the Red-necked Tanager (Tangara seledon), the Brassy-breasted Tanager (Tangara desmaresti), and the Gilt-edged Tanager (Tangara cyanoventris). Birds of the world.
Happy Monday!

Every parent who ever parented teenagers understands this image. A teaching moment...to be remembered.
I took a series of these images a few years ago. I bumped into this one while combing the files.
Le mâle adulte a le dos gris-brun sombre, avec des liserés roux. Le croupion et la queue sont noirs. La queue présente une seule barre blanche médiane et l’extrémité est blanche. Les ailes sont de couleur fauve, avec les rémiges largement terminées de noir, surtout sur les primaires et les secondaires.
Les parties inférieures sont de couleur fauve, finement barrées de noirâtre depuis le haut de la poitrine jusqu’au bas de l’abdomen. Les couvertures sous-caudales sont fauve clair. La queue est de la même couleur dessus et dessous. L’envers des ailes est de couleur fauve. Les rémiges sont fauves, finement barrées de noirâtre, et largement bordées de noir.
Sur la tête, le front, la calotte et la nuque sont de couleur fauve. L’arrière du cou est strié. Le menton et la gorge sont fauve clair. Les joues sont gris chamoisé. La cire et les lores sont jaunes. L’extrémité du bec est noire. Les yeux sont jaune-roux. Les longues pattes et les serres sont jaune orangé.
Les deux sexes sont semblables, avec la femelle plus grande que le mâle.
Habitats
La buse roussâtre néotropicale fréquente les milieux ouverts : les savanes boisées, les lisières des forêts ou des marécages, les mangroves, les pâturages…
Nourriture
La buse roussâtre se nourrit d’une grande variété de proies : reptiles, oiseaux, petits mammifères, poissons, amphibiens, et même de grands insectes.
Reproduction
Le nid, construit dans un arbre isolé, reçoit un et plus rarement deux œufs, en général durant la saison des pluies. Après avoir quitté le nid, le jeune reste dépendant de ses parents de 4 à 7 mois.
Cette espèce suit souvent les feux de savanes et en profite pour chasser les animaux qui fuient les flammes.
I came across this pair in a very tender moment where they touched and I also was touched, for I've seen this behavior before. The parent in front and with that beautiful red eye and the sibling with no color in the eye or in the feathers, they were inseparable, and thought that this image said it all folks, it did for me.
Have a great day everyone and thank you for the visit.
My mother, who died a week ago, and my father, who died in 2006, at a carnival ball in Memmingen in 1954. My mother was 22 years old then, my father 27 (their birthdays were later in the year), and I was about ten months old at the time. Certainly my grandmother took care of me that evening.

光が人物や周囲の構造物に当たることで、空間に奥行きや広がりを与えていて、見る側の想像力を刺激します。彼らが何を考え、何をしているのかを想像すると、この写真の持つ物語性がより一層引き立ちますね。
この写真から最も強く感じられる感情として、親密さが挙げられるように思います。写真の中の二人が近くで寄り添っている様子や、その静かなやりとりが、強い絆や信頼を感じさせます。また、光と影の対比がドラマチックで、彼らの関係性を引き立てているようにも見えますね。
同時に、静寂さや集中といった感情も、この写真を通じて深く伝わってくる可能性があります。それが見る人にとって安心感や内省の瞬間を呼び起こすのかもしれません。
Comments from AI
The light hitting the figures and surrounding structures gives the space depth and breadth, stimulating the viewer's imagination. Imagining what they are thinking and doing enhances the narrative quality of this photograph.
One of the strongest emotions I feel from this photograph seems to be intimacy. The close proximity of the two people in the photo and their quiet interactions give the impression of a strong bond and trust. Also, the contrast between light and shadow is dramatic and seems to enhance their relationship.
At the same time, feelings of stillness and concentration may be deeply conveyed through this photograph. This may evoke a moment of relief and introspection for the viewer.

It's spring again, and I'm off to the lakes to watch two families of grebes bring up their off spring

Here's another installment in my White-tailed Kite story. So, there has been plenty of nest building. Remember, work work work. Make a little love, eat, gather nest material, fend off intruders. The story is getting more variety now. Here, the two would-be parents seem to be discussing what to do with the mousie catch the male on the left has just brought in. Usually, it's carried and exchanged via talon but this starts out where they both have a beak on it. Shortly though, she takes it, gets a talon grip, and flies off to where the hidden nest is in the next tree over. Starting to think there may be more mouths to feed.

A parent and child enjoy a moment together listening to the crashing waves and gazing out on the blue Lake Michigan waters...
Being together in nature is a beautiful thing.
A little walk through one of Springfield's older parks brought this scene to light. Here is some information...
"Fassnight Park is located at Meadowmere Street between Campbell and Grant Avenues. It contains 28 acres of land with trees and a stream. The Springfield Park Board purchased the land in 1924 from Conrad and Emma Fassnight, who had traveled to Springfield with their parents from Michigan in 1886. The foreman of the Fassnight Park project was Godfrey Messerli. He was greatly skilled as a stonemason and created bridges, the bathhouse, the swimming pool and other structures using the fieldstone and Carthage stone found in the area. The labor was done by the Works Progress Administration (W.P.A.).
In 1977 the entire park, including the swimming pool, had deteriorated because of erosion and the fact that the intricate stonemason's work was prohibitively expensive to repair. The pool was closed and the city considering demolishing the swimming pool and bathhouse and replacing them with new state-of-the-art facilities. In the end the city decided to renovate the pool and bathhouse and preserve their unique architecture. This may have been when the waterfall in the pool was removed.
In 1995 a $60,000 water slide was added to Fassnight Pool. It was intended to be a moneymaking venture, with its $3 (later $5) fee helping to fund the swimming pool. An extended pool deck including playground equipment inside the pool area was added later. In 1996 a hard-rubber water serpent was added to the pool. It was tethered to the floor of the shallow end.
Fassnight Park has one of Springfield's most popular pools. The Springfield-Greene County Park Board renovated Fassnight Pool in 2009, and it remains the largest pool in the parks system today."
