The Crested Terns (Thalasseus bergii) were nesting in their thousands (or so it seemed) on the cliff side at The Nobbies, Phillip Island. In a couple of large areas the birds were packed tight and landing spaces were scare. There was quite a bit of neighbour pecking as well as other behaviour on view including this one.

I've been alerted to the fact that quite a few of my contacts are not seeing my latest posts on their Home pages. I've no idea what's causing it and neither do the flickr elves who I contacted the other day, their advice consisted of, "Have you checked your privacy settings?" Duh! Of course! I don't know what else to do about it other than start up a new account because there's no point being on here if people can't see my images! Anyway, for those of you who can see this image I wish you a Yule filled with fun, relaxation, excitement...or whatever constitutes your idea of a great time. Right now my idea of a great Yule would be frost and snow as above because we've just had nearly 12 hours of constant heavy rain! :-( Still, 2 weeks off work, can't be bad, eh! :-)
One last thing, a massive, in fact, a humongous THANK YOU to all my friends on flickr for your friendship, support, advice, humour and inspirational and stunning images. Whenever I've felt out of sorts with my own photography I only had to visit your streams to get my creative juices flowing again. Take care of yourselves and your loved ones, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy...... :-)
The cousins and I took a trip out to the Royal Albatross Centre at Tairoa Heads, Otago Peninsula. This pair of Silver Gulls were not needing privacy to complete their union! He certainly was enjoying himself! The whole area around the Centre was filled with nesting gulls. The Royal Albatross colony was beyond the Centre and has been very successful. Happy Wing Wednesday.
The Bahia Palace, set in extensive gardens, was built in the late 19th century by the Grand Vizier of Marrakesh, Si Ahmed ben Musa (Bou-Ahmed). Bou Ahmed resided here with his four wives, 24 concubines and many children. With a name meaning "brilliance", it was intended to be the greatest palace of its time, designed to capture the essence of Islamic and Moroccan architectural styles. Bou-Ahmed paid special attention to the privacy of the palace in its construction and employed architectural features such as multiple doors which prevented passers-by from seeing into the interior. The palace took seven years to build, with hundreds of craftsmen from Fes working on its wood, carved stucco and zellij.The palace is set in a two-acre (8,000 m²) garden with rooms opening onto courtyards. The palace acquired a reputation as one of the finest in Morocco and was the envy of other wealthy citizens. Upon the death of Bou-Ahmed in 1900, the palace was raided by Sultan Abd al-Aziz.
The model year is 1931 according to the YOM program plate. Yes, I altered the plate number for privacy.
Yes, flowers! You have privacy in public this year. You can bloom well, blossom well... There won't be thousands of people taking photos of you for hours and hours this year!

Finally found one couple with a little modesty. As you can see in the following 2 images, they weren't quite so modest.

THE PRIVACY PROJECT
Companies and governments are gaining new powers to follow people across the internet and around the world, and even to peer into their genomes. The benefits of such advances have been apparent for years; the costs — in anonymity, even autonomy — are now becoming clearer. The boundaries of privacy are in dispute, and its future is in doubt. Citizens, politicians and business leaders are asking if societies are making the wisest tradeoffs. The Times is embarking on this months long project to explore the technology and where it’s taking us, and to convene debate about how it can best help realize human potential.
