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)
Ab September wechsle ich den Anbieter (in Deutschland funktioniert das nicht immer so reibungslos). Es kann also sein, dass ich ab September längere Zeit offline bin.
From September I will switch providers (in Germany it doesn't always work so smoothly). So it may be that I will be offline for a long time from September onwards.
The Grassmarket is one of the oldest parts of the city, and although the architecture has changed the layout of its open space retains its historic character.
It has always been a bustling market place, in the past with many taverns and inns for the drovers coming to sell their cattle. Today there are still a variety of pubs and independent shops to visit.
The White Hart Inn here is probably the oldest pub in Edinburgh, visited by the poet Robert Burns in 1791 and later by the poet Dorothy Wordsworth.
By the foot of Victoria Street is the recently restored Bow Well. Built in 1681, it was the first provider of piped running water in Edinburgh.
The eastern part of the market was once the site of public executions, marked today by the Covenanters’ memorial.
Perhaps the most remarkable story connected with the place is the tale of Half-Hingit Maggie. After her hanging she miraculously came back to life and was allowed to go free. Look out for the pub named after her nearby.
The Grassmarket was used as a market from the 14th century, with cattle fairs, horse fairs and corn being bought and sold in its wide open space. But this also made it suitable for public executions, with the last hanging taking place here in 1784.

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.
Here is the male of a local nesting pair of bald eagles. The female had finished eating on the food he returned and then settled down into the nest to the right. He continued to eat in the eat-and-check pattern common to so many species. I got him here on a check with the sun hitting him like a spotlight. This is as good as he will look in this nesting season. Once the hatch occurs, he gets very busy and actually will look gaunt by May.
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.
Survival of the fittest plays out in the eagle nest near my home. These egg-eaglet-full size transitions can be amazing to watch. I learned the other day that this is the fastest growing species in the bird world. This is an oldie and remains one of the memorable photos from the ongoing story of the nesting pair.
A good provider and he always stays to watch that it goes down the hatch because sometimes the new baby will lose the meal provided. Unfortunately, the loons at my lake weren't successful with their hatch. I found the egg abandoned, leaking and punctured by 4 sharp teeth. So I drove two hours to another lake hoping to see loonlets. The wind and waves were crazy but I didn't let that stop me. When I paddled up to the far side of the lake I could hear the loons screaming. A fisherman was casting his line at the family without a care. He saw me coming (lucky for him or I would have chewed him a new one) and left. Situation thwarted the family was at peace once again until the next mishap. I hope to see them in another 2 or 3 weeks, preferably in calm waters at sunset. The babies are the cutest at 1-4 days old.
*Side note*
The Oilers won (what a game) and it finally rained. Things are looking up.

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.

Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, Canada
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.

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.
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.
7D95 Bescot - Toton, a change from the gloom at the same spot and same time a few days ago, though the sun was a bit challenging for the camera. Nice to have a variety of 68s on this run, maybe some more testing of the classic traction would be welcomed? Many thanks to gen providers.
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 !
