I spent the better part of an hour watching as this Eastern Phoebe worked a shoreline of Horsepen Bayou, making a circuit of the driftwood branches, repeatedly launching after flying insects and returning to the same perch to eat them before moving on to the next station.

Hover flies like this (Melangyna sp.) are often mistaken for bees or wasps. They are true flies (single set of wings), but don't sting or bite. They are more interested in flowers than humans or other animals. In fact they are important pollinators, and their larvae eat common garden pests like aphids. An attractive and greatly underappreciated insect.

Plague doctor costume.
The clothing worn by plague doctors was intended to protect them from airborne diseases. The costume, used in France and Italy in the 17th century, consisted of an ankle length overcoat and a bird-like beak mask, often filled with sweet or strong smelling substances (commonly lavender), along with gloves, boots, a wide-brimmed hat, and an outer over-clothing garment.
Abito del medico della peste.
Con abito del medico della peste ci si riferisce all'abbigliamento utilizzato un tempo dai medici per proteggersi dalle epidemie. L'abito era costituito da una sorta di tonaca nera lunga fino alle caviglie, un paio di guanti, un paio di scarpe, un bastone, un cappello a tesa larga e una maschera a forma di becco dove erano contenute essenze aromatiche e paglia, che agivano da filtro e che avrebbero dovuto (secondo le credenze mediche dell'epoca) impedire il passaggio degli agenti infettanti.

Gerade zur Weihnachtszeit findet man in vielen Türrahmen Mistelzweige. Früher noch verehrt und als heilig angesehen wird die Mistel heute eher als Schädling betrachtet.
Sie wachsen in weitverzweigten Kugeln, die einen Durchmesser von bis zu 80 Zentimetern erreichen können.
Die Beeren sind giftig. Sie enthalten die Samen, die von Vögeln gefressen werden, denen diese Toxizität offensichtlich nichts ausmacht. So gelangen die Samen durch deren Ausscheidungen auf andere Bäume, wo sie sich zu neuen Misteln entwickeln.

Mistletoe can be found in many door frames, especially at Christmas time. In the past, mistletoe was revered and considered sacred, but today it is more of a pest.
They grow in widely branched spheres that can reach a diameter of up to 80 centimeters.
The berries are poisonous. They contain the seeds that are eaten by birds who obviously don't mind this toxicity. In this way, the seeds pass through their excretions to other trees, where they develop into new mistletoe.

ho da imparare molto:
la composizione di alcuni scatti, il non riflettermi negli oggetti metallici.

Beautiful pest
Despite being a nuisance I really enjoy looking at the beautiful colors and wonderful design of flies such as this tiny fly sitting on a marigold petal.
Technically this is much larger than life-size, taken with a macro lens mounted on extension tubes using ring flash for lighting

Yes I know they are not native & are considered to be pests and invasive. I know they have a reputation for biting. But, still, so pretty!

This was a tricky sign to shoot. This photograph is an interstate drive-by, shot as we drove along I-10. It was the only way. We parked at the base of this sign and I took numerous shots, from every vantage point available, but this old sign is SO TALL that the angle just wasn't working for me given the bright sunshine I had to deal with. Nothing I shot looked good. So back up along the highway and -- ta-da! -- I got the shot I wanted. Thank goodness it's right beside the highway!
From the excellent Roadside Architecture site, here is the scoop on this oh-so-cool sign:
"Peninsular Pest Control Service was founded in 1954. While the bottom panel of this sign exclaims "Home Office", there never were any other locations. This sign was built in 1966 and is visible from I-10. The height of the sign including the poles is 161 feet. The text panels are about 20 feet wide. The word "Peninsular" is composed of incandescent bulbs and is outlined with neon. The other letters on the panels are lit with neon. On top of the text panels, there is an animated depiction of a man firing spray at a bug. The company calls him the "Penny Man." His arm operates the spray gun in three-part animation. The spray itself is also animated. The bug is composed of neon tubing installed on a metal grid. When the revolving man faces the bug, the bug's neon turns off indicating that it has been killed. The company had to fight keep the sign when the local sign ordinance changed. The sign is serviced every month or so to keep it in full working order."
I know they are not native here and are considered a pest species. But, they are also beautiful in their own right. Especially in the sunshine.
