California King Snake

Carrizo Plain

These snakes are immune to rattlesnake venom so are one of their predators. They kill by constriction, not venom.

Mein Kollege sagt ..

 

.. in 2026 käme der neue PREDATOR in die Kinos und die Hauptrollen würden hauptsächlich mit weiblichen Darstellern besetzt sein .. . ich staune immer wieder, was DER wieder alles weiß! 😏

 

My colleague says...

 

...the new PREDATOR will be released in 2026, and the main roles will be mostly female... I'm always amazed at how much HE knows! 😏

An adult Chinese Mantis (Tenodera sinensis) lies in wait among late summer Rudbeckia flowers.

Scarlet Tanagers eat mainly insects along with some fruit and tender buds. Their invertebrate diet includes ants, sawflies, moths, butterflies, beetles, flies, cicadas, leafhoppers, spittlebugs, treehoppers, plant lice, scale insects, termites, grasshoppers, locusts, dragonflies, dobsonflies, snails, earthworms, and spiders. While searching for these tidbits they walk along branches high in the canopy or (rarely) along the ground, or vertically on tree trunks to probe the bark.

Makes Trophies of Fish

Synaema globosum

A group of Trandoshans hunters gathered on the plant to enjoy their favorite hobby: hunting down Wookiee prisoners. Preferably unarmed Wookiees because it’s not so “fun” when the prey shoots back (I never liked Trandoshans).

 

According to their “traditions” the group of ten Trandoshans brought the unarmed Wookiee prisoner to this planet where they started their little twisted show.

 

However on the planet there is another hunter. Someone who came here to track down a prey worth of legend and he is not pleased by the cowardice of these “Space Lizards”.

The Predator tracks down the Trandoshans, killing the dishonorable hunters one by one.

 

As the Space Lizards meet their demise the Wookiee enjoys his staying on the planet.

Sometimes very good things come from crossovers and the Wookiee is very pleased by this particular one.

 

The Predator is one of the action figures by Neca based on the Predator Dark Horse Comics.

 

I hope you like this photo :)

"When I was little, we found a man. He looked like ... like, butchered. The old woman in the village crossed themselves ... and whispered crazy things, strange things: 'El Diablo cazador de hombres'. Only in the hottest years this happens - and this year, it grows hot. We begin finding our men. We found them sometimes without their skins ... and sometimes much, much worse. 'El cazador trofeo de los hombres' ... means the demon who makes trophies of men."

Benny plays the part high up in a tree ...if his prey only knew that he has often retreated from our pecking ducklings.

I was curious what was up there--what is a predator wary of? A larger predator? But I took this photo from inside my car and couldn't look up immediately.

This is the shot that put my wrist into a support bandage, I was at such a weird angle trying to get this girl face on that I aggravated a stretched tendon in my wrist, but I think it was worth it. This is again with the Tamron 70-300mm affixed with the Raynox DCR-250 at my favourite Spidey-Spot. The flash reflected off the side eyes but left the two top head eyes blank, giving this an additional sinister feel, which I freaking love!

 

Here's to another week ahead, I hope everyone is doing well and so as always, thank you! :)

  

PS: Zoom in ;)

We occasionally see one of these small snakes. They feed on salamanders, earthworms, slugs, and lizards and frogs. (wikipedia)

 

Sometimes we see one being carried away by one of the hawks like the hawk I posted yesterday.

Prise de vue équivalente en 24 x 36 mm à une focale 600...

Travail dans WLG sur le jpeg, donc léger le travail... ;-))

One of those captures that's crying out for a focus stack but it was pretty much impossible with this one, perhaps some of the four third cameras with built in focus stacking might be the answer although I can't imagine how they work out in the field.

Updated Predator for another commission and yet again, it's another that puts the old one in my collection to shame. I'd happily say sod the money and keep it, but that'd be mean ; )

 

Again all Procreate and Fimo on this one and I'm very happy with how it turned out.

 

Comments always welcome!

We had a sighting of a coalition of 7 young male lions - the buffalo had no chance

Ospreys are masters of fishing. This particular osprey was looking for a perch to have his breakfast.

A bit gruesome for the festive season, but if you are a robber fly you have to eat!

Model: actor/magician/wolf activist Steve Wastell with 3 wolf-pups.

 

These pups were 3 weeks old when Steve and his wife rescued them and their mom from an illegal backyard breader. Here they are 8 weeks old and a total handful.

 

The title refers to predators at the top of the food chain. I wanted this shot to be a combo of cute/scary :)

 

This Great Blue Heron didn't even notice me standing just five feet away from it

because its eyes are on a fish hiding in the water plants. :)

I meant to post this the other day, but just haven't gotten to it yet! A few Predators I have been working on ;)

Well, this build drained me completely. I've always wanted to build a Predator, but thought it was pretty much impossible. Paddy's fantastic version was just the push I needed to give it a try.

 

So first things first, I think it turned out terrible. :)) At least it sort of looks like an disproportionate Predator.

 

This definitely is not the thing aI wanted after all the work I put into it. Still, I at least managed to complete it, at times it felt like I never would.

 

Well sort of, I'd rather treat this as a wip, as I didn't even bother adding details to finish it off... will probably revisit this sometime.
