Shade from the sun, shelter from the wind, and exclusion of sharks all help to make Middle Brighton ocean baths a popular recreational destination in Melbourne, Victoria. The baths were opened in 1882.

For the birdies outside our window....

female Green Huntsman Spider (Micrommata virescens) shelters her spiderlings before they disperse.

The shelf ice helps protect the beach and dunes from erosion in winter storms. The region has had several recent years - not this one - with little or no ice. Structures near the beach have lost protection.

Another early AM shooting session, experimenting with Arista Ultra 100 shot at box speed. Fairly wide light capture here with somewhat harsh shadows and cloudless sky. This combination doesn't quite pull out the details in the shadows as much as I'd like, despite some very favorable comments about this film with D76. Will likely go back to Xtol in the next round.

What is this one called Colin ?

Nearly 70 years ago, I had several teachers who believed corporal punishment should not be limited to a student’s home. I discovered this, much to my chagrin, when I stepped over an invisible behavioral line they had drawn for budding criminals like myself.

 

One teacher was shorter than I already was in junior high, but unfortunately, he was built like a fireplug and had quick reflexes, so quick, in fact, that he might have set a state record closing the distance between his desk and mine after I might have caused a minor disruption.

 

He didn’t administer a long discipline session with his frantic efforts, but it was effective enough to open a two-inch cut above my eyebrow.

 

An uneasy silence engulfed our classroom when he clumsily handed me a paper towel to staunch the flow of blood and told me to go to the boy’s locker room. I was met there by the football coach. He took one look at me and said, “I don’t even have to ask who did that to you.” I have always wondered what he meant by that.

 

In retrospect, that incident could have been somewhat alleviated if I would have had a tongue like this Pileated Woodpecker.

 

The largest woodpecker in the US has a tongue that can extend up to 4 inches beyond the tip of its bill. When the woodpecker is pounding its head against a tree, the tongue retracts inwardly and wraps around the back of its skull to protect it from the concussions of the taps.

 

I wish my mom and dad had thought of that.
