The Large Red Damselfly(Pyrrhosoma nymphula) is Britain's most common red damselfly. It can be found in
most wetland habitats living around the edges of ponds, lakes, ditches and canals, and also be found away from breeding sites in grassland and woodland, but it avoids fast flowing water. The earliest damselfly to emerge, it is on the wing from the end of April through to August.
The Large Red Damselfly has black legs and dark pterostigma (wing spots)The male has a red abdomen with black markings and the thorax is black with red antehumeral stripes. The female has three colour forms ranging from mostly red to mostly black with small yellow markings. Some colour forms have red antehumeral stripes on the thorax, some have yellow stripes.

Very common in most areas of the United States, but these amazing predators are perhaps my favorite birds.

Red Crossbills in North America are quite variable, from small-billed birds that feed on spruce cones to large-billed ones that specialize on pines.

What I believe to be a light juvenile red-tailed hawk shrieking loudly as it circled the trees by Mill Pond. Playing around with birds in flight with the Nikon Z8. I don't think I will be getting rid of my faithful D850 any time soon.

This was shot from the MDH. There are 3 Red Mountains in a row.
The biggest problem with taking photos on MDH is there are many beautiful views with no pull off spot. There are still many beautiful spots to shoot, but many you just have to drive by.

The cranes are here to build the biggest skyscraper in Belfast. The Obel.
The 26-storey Obel Tower — a conflation of old Belfast and obelisk — will have 182 apartments with prices starting at £90,000 for a one-bedroom flat up to £475,000 for a penthouse. At £365 per square foot, it is the most expensive development in the city.
It is Belfast’s boldest move yet; the current tallest residential building has seven storeys. Developers have shunned the city centre, conspicuously avoiding building high or using vast swathes of glass. For decades, the city’s waterfront, viewed as nothing more than a wasteland, has been ignored.
The Laganside Corporation was set up by the government in 1989 — a decade before the Good Friday agreement — to mastermind the regeneration of 346 acres of inner-city land, straddling both banks of the River Lagan, which snakes through the centre of Belfast.
Since then, £800m has been spent cleaning up the river and investing in housing, jobs, office space and 700 homes.
Two years in the planning, Donegall Quay exemplifies the momentum of riverside development. Occupying a mere three-quarters of an acre beside the Lagan Weir, the glass tower is a symbol of Belfast’s regeneration.
“It had to be different,” says Gayle Blackbourne, a director of Karl Properties, one of the consortium of developers forming Donegall Quay, which is behind the £45m project. “We wanted a tower. It stands for the future.”
Five years ago such a vision would have been unthinkable, both as a financial investment and due to the security risk. But the developers, the Laganside Corporation and the planners believe it’s time to tackle Belfast’s skyline. “For years buildings in the city have been low-rise with no glass; the Obel Tower is a statement of confidence,” says Doug Garrett, deputy chief executive of the Laganside Corporation.
“The first flats in Laganside were built in 1994. We struggled to sell a two-bed penthouse for £30,000. Banks would not lend on city-centre properties. Today the same flat is £200,000.”
It signals a move back to the original port hub of Belfast that was once one of the busiest parts of the city. In the 19th century it was a mass of industry, the quaysides teeming with workers. The Troubles saw it fade to a muddy mess.
“The interest in Donegall Quay has been colossal,” says Simon Brien, of estate agents Eric Cairns Partnership. “A decade ago nobody would have contemplated living near the river, but now they feel safer and there are more social amenities. Seventy per cent of the flats went under offer on the first day.”
Peter Vaughan of Obel architects Broadway Malyan, whose previous projects include Battersea Reach in London and The Edge in Manchester, feels the city is much like Manchester was five years ago. “The design using clear glass is simple, calm and polite,” he says. “Standing at the gateway to the city, it will mark a moment of arrival.”
As Belfast reinvents itself, developers are out to reap a profit from the peace dividend. Future projects along the Lagan include 100 flats at Victoria Square and sites at Queen’s Quay and Titantic Quarter. Belfast is joining the trend for urban renewal — which can only mean rises in property prices.
should be great for some photo ops too... tho can't say i'll be taken photos from the inside out lol...still a pretty glass fronted skyscraper can make a new challenge. esp if it's all lit up at night!
The summer of 2023 brought unusually wet conditions to typically arid Wyoming. Even by late August, pools of water remained in the Red Lake basin near Cody. The hogback in the background lies on the east side of the Horse Center Anticline and dips away from the viewer toward the east. The upper portion of the hogback consists of the Cretaceous Cloverly Formation, while the lower portion is formed by the Jurassic Morrison Formation. To the center-left of the image, a lower, resistant hogback is composed of sandstone. In the foreground, the lake is bordered by a mudflat covered in grass. On the right side of the foreground, white alkali deposits are visible along the water's edge.

Brilliant red-orange caps of Red Sickeners (Russula emetica) popping up in the tundra duff, after a week of damp weather.
While walking near an active fox den and adult fox took issue with my presence barking to tell me to go away.
He was all wet so I think he'd just been in the seasonal pond after duck for dinner.

The far off drifting clouds and off red hills against snow-covered mountains drew my attention several times.
It was delightful being out of the house and so nice to see sunshine after several rainy days.
Selective coloring used to bring out red of far-off hills.

The first Red River Carts were constructed by the Metis in the early 1800's from wood, rawhide and sinew. They could transport heavy loads of furs to the Fur Traders. These carts were drawn by horse or by oxen.
