Each year, the Darom Adom Festival follows the rainy season, when the ordinarily green landscape of the northern Negev is covered with a magnificent carpet of scarlet red anemones.
Red-headed Trogon Harpactes erythrocephalus, Kesumba Gunung
Some say this is a common resident at hill stations in Malaysia such as Fraser Hill, Bukit Larut and Genting. A very beautiful bird but very hard to spot because it prefers to sit motionless at mid-storey rainforest canopy level for long periods, flying swiftly to another perch when disturbed. Feeds on insects.
Kesumba Gunung sememangnya antara burung yang tercantik di kawasan tanah tinggi di negara kita. Walaupun bulunya yang merah terang, ia agak sukar dilihat kerana sifatnya yang duduk diam di kanopi pertengahan tanpa pergerakan dalam masa yang lama. Tetapi sebaik anda dapat melihatnya, agak mudah untuk merakam gambarnya juga kerana sifatnya itu. Ia juga memberi respon kepada panggilan sekiranya ada berdekatan.

I'll start a little animal series now.. i took a lot of animal pictures the last few months but didn't post any of them so far...
This red squirrel here looked up behind the grass and vanished onto the tree on the right then.. :)
Thank you all for your views, comments and faves!

This is only a small plant, but on the windowsill in my kitchen, it seems to thrive in the Northern light, these beauties here seem to fight for the light.
Cyclamen are native to the Mediterranean region from Spain east to Iran, and also in northeast Africa South to Somalia.
The name Cyclamen is presumed to come from Greek 'kyclos', a circle referring to the round tubers, or leaves.
Lovely inverted flowers rise out of fantastically patterned rounded or heart-shaped leaves.
Some of the patterns, particularly the silver leaved varieties are exquisite and can truly be described as a wonder of nature.
From the family Primulaceae, they come in beautiful colours from white, pink, purple, red and combinations of these.
Cyclamen like the cool; the smaller the leaves, the cooler they can stand it.
The tubers are regarded as the favourite food for pigs in the South of France, Sicily and Italy, hence a rather uncommon common name Sowbread.
Cyclamen are poisonous; they have been used medicinally as a powerful purgative, but their toxicity makes this risky.
Have a glorious day and thank you, M, (*_*)

The constantly changing skies over Bournemouth yesterday and the Red Arrows smoke mingling with the clouds. Amazing display to witness. #Summertime #BournemouthAirFestival #Bournemouth #RedArrows
Red Kite
Irish Name:Cúr Rua / Préachán na gCearcScientific name:Milvus milvusBird Family:Raptors
AMBER
CONSERVATION STATUS
Status
A resident, reintroduced population is slowly expanding from its core range in Cos. Wicklow, Dublin and Down.
Identification
An elegant, graceful bird of prey, larger than a Buzzard, with long wings and a long distinctly forked tail. The body is reddish-brown with dark streaking, the head is greyish and the tail, which is often twisted continually in flight, is orange-red. Viewed from below, the black, fingered wingtips and contrasting white patch on the outer flight feathers stand out. As with most birds of prey, the female is larger than the male. Juveniles look somewhat duller than adults, with less distinct streaking and a thin white line on the upperwing. Many of the Red Kites seen in Ireland bear coloured plastic identification tags on their wings.
Voice
A shrill, mewing 'peee-ooow'.
Diet
Mainly eats carrion, including roadkill, preferring to scavenge rather than hunt. They will happily take live prey if necessary, however, including rats, mice, rabbits pigeons, young crows and even earthworms and other invertebrates.
Breeding
Breeding is currently still confined to the east coast, close to the original reintroduction sites in Cos. Wicklow, Dublin and Down. The nest consists of a large platform of twigs, usually constructed high above the ground in the fork of a deciduous tree branch. Red Kites have the curious habit of decorating their nests with scavenged human items, especially plastic bags, items of clothing (especially underwear!) and even children's toys. 1 to 3 eggs are incubated, mainly by the female, for around 31 days, and the chicks are cared for by both parents.
Wintering
Resident throughout its range. Likes to gather in winter roosting flocks, the largest and best-known of which is close to the village of Avoca in Co. Wicklow, a very reliable site for this species.
Monitored by
Countryside Bird Survey
Reintroduced in 2011. Resident, roaming but not wide-ranging.
Roaming further afield in Winter, turning up in Western counties.
MERCI,,,,, THANK YOU ,,,,

I now have a blog post up about my trip to the red squirrels at Forest How, with more information about the trip, and how to get the best out of a visit yourself.

Another storm approaches and some more amazing colours to discover from our deck. The tones of red were almost beyond expectations.
Clear water in a bowl. The red colour come from a red nylon rope behind the bowl with a second flash reflecting off it. Miops splash creates the drops.

Still in Melbourne. The first day we didn't visit a lot this city... Just before we're heading back to the hotel, we heard a soft music. There was a street concert with the Red Ink band. This was fresh and very pleasant!
Red-breasted Merganser is quite a scarce visitor to my part of the Pennines so I decided it was worth a short drive to try and point a camera at this female currently residing on a park lake in Pontefract. This was the first time I have photographed one digitally in Britain so I may well upload a few more images of it. This open-billed shot shows off the serrated margins beautifully, especially if you view large. This Red-breasted Merganser, plus Goosander and Smew are the three regularly-occurring "sawbill ducks" in Britain. But these serrations aren't really teeth. The cutting edge of the bill is known as the tomium (plural tomia) and in birds like sawbills and geese the tomia are serrated and help them catch fish or snip through grass stems. No extant birds have proper teeth. Proper teeth emerge from the gums and are covered with hard enamel. Animals like lizards, crocodiles and mammals have proper teeth but somewhere during the evolution of birds they lost the ability to produce enamelled teeth. Archaeopteryx from the Jurassic had teeth (around 150 million years ago), and fossils of "proper" birds from the Cretaceous (c145 - 66 million years ago) had teeth. But somewhere around 80 million years ago bird teeth disappeared, as they evolved ways round the need for teeth. For example, instead of chewing they grind their food in the muscular gizzard, sometimes swallowing grit to help with this. They also have amazingly diverse bill types to facilitate their type of feeding such as tearing flesh or probing for worms.
