Thank you for taking a look at my images.

This photo was taken by last year or the year before. All I could remember is that time I was fascinated by the idea of lights travel through the forest. But apparently, I failed to get it.

 

If anyone could give me some advices or recommend some place with more trees around Perth, I will really appreciate.

Again, thanks all for your browsing and comments.

We followed a walking trail not too far from Bruges, called the 'Doeveren walk'. It mainly leads through wood, but there are some meadows that are grazed by Galloway cattle too.

I was kind of surprised the last time that I went to Circle B Bar Reserve a couple of weeks ago. The creek alongside the Alligator Alley trail was completely smothered in a blanket of pond lettuce.

The African buffalo or Cape buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is a large Sub-Saharan African bovine. Syncerus caffer caffer, the Cape buffalo, is the typical subspecies found in South and East Africa. The adult buffalo's horns are its characteristic feature: they have fused bases, forming a continuous bone shield across the top of the head referred to as a "boss".

 

Cape Buffalo are suspected to kill around 200 people every year. They typically will charge and gore their victims and have been known to trample people as well. When you see Cape Buffalo roaming in Africa, they're usually not alone. Weighing in at over 1500 lbs, even most lions don't dare bother hunting this aggressive beast unless the lions are in a huge pride. – Wikipedia

 

Taken last September on my birthday (thanks Morgan!) from Bloedel Reserve not very far away from where I live in Bainbridge Island.

 

If you ever visit Washington State then you SHOULD visit this beautiful place.

The kingfisher was very active but the grey weather has spoiled the fun a little bit.

Sandwich Tern in flight at Hodbarrow Nature Reserve near Millom, Cumbria

Another shot from Tuesday morning at the local nature reserve.

 

Higher, in the valley of Planica the creek which flows there soon disappears under gravel. Only here, near Rateče, where valley bottom is made of clay rests of an ancient lake, water comes out again - as crystal clear sources of Sava river. This small marsh land is protected as a natural reserve and arranged for tourist visit.
