Some say that thirteen is an unlucky number. Will these parents think the same? (Look very well because there are 13 goslings not 12). At this time of the year, the lake always has a lot of algae and the remnants of leaves and branches from autumn and winter. It doesn't help that it hasn't rained much. (Even if isn't a good photo, looks better in large). For those that can’t see number 13, see tag on photo).
Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!

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.

In a group of goslings there always seems to be one little adventurer who loves to explore everything, knows no fear and often ventures quite far away from his / her family. I hope that the parents still keep an eye on their little explorer, even if the golf course where this gosling lives is safer than most other places.

De rares occasions...
Toujours lors de mon dernier passage dans la région de Québec, voici un autre de nos petits passereaux que j'ai eu le plaisir de capter. Une espèce surtout visible en hiver, que nous croisons trop peu souvent dans la région de Montréal. Si peu souvent, qu'il s'agit seulement de ma 3e publication d'un mâle de cette espèce. La dernière à son sujet remonte à l'automne 2022, observée chez mon amie Michèle à Saint-Armand. Un fait amusant concernant ces publications, le premier que j'ai présenté sur ma galerie Flickr, un spécimen capté au Cimetière Laval au tout début du printemps 2016, je l'avais publié comme aujourd'hui, un 26 mars! Il y a donc aujourd'hui même exactement 9 ans! Et cette journée du 26 mars revêt pour ma famille et moi une importance bien particulière, puisqu'il y a 74 ans, le 26 mars 1951, convolaient en justes noces Marie Grégoire et Jean-Jacques Messier, mes parents, tous deux maintenant décédés.

Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!

Elasmucha grisea can reach a length of 6.5–8.8 millimetres (0.26–0.35 in). Males are smaller than females. These medium-sized shieldbugs are usually brown-reddish, but there are also gray (hence the Latin species name grisea) and green-brown specimen. Connexivum is black and white. The upperside is covered with several dark dots. The scutellum usually shows an evident black patch. The ventral face is largely punctuated with black. Lateral corners of the pronotum are simply beveled. The front corners of the pronotum show a more pronounced tooth. Antennas are blackish in the male, dark brown in the female. This species, like other parent bugs possess methatoracic and abdominal glands, which discharge a foul smelling secretion. This secretion is used to deter potential enemies and is sometimes released when the bug is disturbed.

been seeing lots with eggs, and can only wonder at how on earth they have fared over the last couple of weeks with the wind and torrential rain...
This one was at Cramer Gutter - Shropshire
A brother and I stopped at “Our Parents Place” to reminisce for a bit before going on a cruise together. It was a beautiful day and by chance we wanted to get a couple photos of our street rods. We live a few hundred apart and wanted to pay our folks the respect of a visit. We had a blast and our folks never said a negative word. Gratitude and Kindness paid off again.
