Owls are super capable of providing for their family. This female Great Horned Owl, large and powerful with lethal talons and the ability to fly silently in the dark has no problem providing for her family. I think she'd be capable of providing for a a neighborhood if we were willing to eat her fare. (Bubo virginianus)
Urban foxes have to work twice as hard to find enough food to feed their families. Click twice to enlarge.
Inside this tin covered engine-shed is a broken grain-elevator lift engine. So they backed this old tractor up to the shed and connected its output shaft to the belt-drive inside.
Want some grain? Fire-up the tractor.

The male of a pair of blackbirds nesting in a bay tree in my garden. This is situated right outside my patio doors which is handy, I can hear the little ones all the time. The only problem is my cat, she caught him in the week & brought him inside where I managed to grab him quickly before any harm was done. I popped him back where he is in the picture & he scutttled back into the tree.
This is an image of a Great Blue Heron who I felt was very proud of his find on this particular trip. they work so hard to find the nesting material and sometimes it turns out to be a little wee stick while other times it is a real prize.

Philadelphia, PA. For the first time since 2018, T4 has young red-tailed hawks to feed. This season was off to a slow start, but egg incubation began on April 8 and hatching seems to have followed the standard timeline. The nest is too high to see the eyasses right now, so the number is unknown. Fledging is expected at the end of June.

American Robins, both parents, were busy gathering wiggling earthworms to feed their fledglings hiding in the understory brush.

During the time that we have been here in Annapolis Royal, this fishing boat was being repaired and getting a new coat of paint. It's really amazing how quickly that they have accomplished this work. Here the sign painter is putting the finishing touches on the name.
See the next photo for a shot of the whole boat.

Since two weeks I have no internet at home. My provider said that the cable in the street is the reason and it will take quite a while to fix it... :(
So for now I just have my limited phone connection to check mails and other news. Can you remember your life before internet became a normal thing?
Anyway, I'm at my parents place now for Easter holidays. So I have the chance for this upload. I hope everyone is fine. I hope to be back on Flickr as soon as possible.

This hard-working male Cross Fox caught vole after vole. He did something I've never seen before, he would bury the voles very shallow in the snow with his nose and later gather several and take them to the den.
Bescot - Toton departmental just gets a little light at Lea Marston. The location never disappoints, the mist rising off the river at sunset was a bit of a first for me, it had been misty all day and this rose just before the sun went down, I guess the air got colder very quickly and helped the unusual conditions. An aeroplane departing from Birmingham is in the sky. Thanks to gen providers.
This is the male of a pair of local barn owls (Tyto alba). I've not seen them for a month and with the appalling weather and the constant presence of jackdaws at the roost I was afraid they had not survived. Great to see him hunt successfully, return straight to the nest with the catch and go back out immediately.
This bald cypress tree was most likely damaged in a storm and the cleanup crew left the stump that is providing food for plant life and wildlife as it slowly decays in the swamp. Nature takes care of it's own without drawing attention to the important function it lends back to itself.
A good read: The Hidden life of Trees.
This time of year the birds are busy courting and building nests and of course the great blue herons put on a wonderful show for all. Their amazing feather detail and color make them a true masterpiece of creation and what a privilege it is to see them in the process of building the future !!
Wishing you all a restful and blessed night !
