Mount Baldo range 20201213
Monte Baldo is a mountain range in the Italian Alps, located in the provinces of Trento and Verona. Its ridge spans mainly northeast-southwest, and is bounded from the south by the highland ending at Caprino Veronese, from the west by Lake Garda, from the north by the valley joining Rovereto to Nago-Torbole and, from east, the Val d'Adige.
The name derives from the German Wald ("forest"); it appears for the first time on a German map in 1163.
natural light shots of hermits, birds with odd shaped tail which creates a typical hunched posture. Hermits have a long decurved bill with a red or yellow base to the lower mandible, and their two central tail feathers are elongated and tipped with white, buff or ochre. The crown of the head is flat, and two pale facial stripes enclose a dusky mask.
Most hermits are restricted to the edge and undergrowth of forest, woodland and second growth, but some species (e.g. the planalto hermit) also occur in more open habitats.
Many species of hermits form leks and congregate on traditional display grounds, where females visit to choose a mate. Male hermits are generally less aggressive than other male hummingbirds, although both sexes will defend a feeding territory.
From wiki:
The stripe-throated hermit feeds on flower-nectar taken by trap-lining. It has also been observed piercing the base of flowers to get nectar that otherwise would be out of reach; sometimes it take small insects. Typically this species forages fairly low, only occasionally at canopy-level.. This hummingbird is found in a wide range of wooded habitats, e.g. forest, woodland, clearings, thickets and gardens; typically in humid regions, but locally also in drier, deciduous habitats (e.g. in Ecuador). Mainly found in lowlands and foothills, it has exceptionally been recorded up to an altitude of 1,800 m (5,900 ft) ASL.

The Kluane Ranges are the easternmost of the St Elias Mountains in the Yukon Territory. The photo shows the southern end of the range which extends from about Haines Junction to the Yukon-Alaskan border. Mount Logan, the highest peak in the St Elias Mountains, can only be seen from the tops of the Kluane Range. The photo is a drone panorama shot around midnight. The moon was close to setting behind the mountains, one of those unforgettable late Yukon nights.

The Clwydian Range (Welsh: Bryniau Clwyd) is a series of hills and mountains in north east Wales that runs from Llandegla in the south to Prestatyn in the north, with the highest point being the popular Moel Famau. The range is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty.The Clwydian Hills are formed from an upstanding block of Silurian age sandstones, mudstones and siltstones. The range's rocks are intensely faulted; the major Vale of Clwyd Fault is responsible for the impressive west-facing scarp of the Clwydian Range. It downthrows the rocks to the west and separates the younger Carboniferous and Permo-Triassic rocks of the Vale of Clwyd from those of the hills

These buildings are often referred to as Lighthouses,when in fact they are actually Range Lights. mariners use them to find the opening of the port (Harbour). With the rising waters and more frequent high surges from the winds these are taking a battering. I hope someone comes to the rescue before they are demolished. My web site is finally up and running.

I caught this beautiful rainbow along the eastern edge of the Sneffels Range (near Ridgway, CO) in between monsoon storms one evening during my recent trip. You just never know what you'll see when the monsoon is active.
I caught this fabulous sunrise over Mears Peak in Colorado's Sneffels Range earlier in the week. The lupine are definitely near peak in the area.

After several hours of rain, it was unclear what might happen as the sun finally made its way towards its damp exit. The sky was leaden and nondescript for what seemed like a very long time. I wandered about amongst the willows, keeping tabs on a doe as she marked my every step with either her ears, eyes, nose, or all three. Deer synthesize the world via some exquisitely keen senses - in a way it's very hard to imagine. Natural history musings aside, I was very pleased when a reddish tinge began to build in the underbelly of some of the higher clouds. The light shifted continuously and in all three dimensions as it played across the various layers of atmosphere. Quite a reasonable number of mosquitoes made it their mission to extract nutrients from me to fuel their next generation; I made it as difficult for them as I could, ensuring only the most stealthy would go on to reproduce.
I was invited last minute to backpack up Hague Creek with my youngest son by a neighbor who was taking his three kids. Realizing I had no plans except continuing to work on a cider press that has absorbed far too many of my evening hours, we packed up and headed for the hills. The whining, sanguine, crepuscular denizens of the willowed sub-alpine reminded me why I should always remember to bring adequate supplies of bug spray to the Rockies in July.
Thanks for the visit!
