I watched several of these actively diving and feeding until they noticed me and they put some distance between us. If you are just walking on the trails you are not a concern, you put a big lens in our direction we are leaving.

A ringed plover on the beach. I'll hopefully be spending some more time with these fantastic little waders next week!
I found another of those American Canyon signs this evening while looking for Rings for the “We’re Here!” theme,
Touching wedding rings - a tiny physical connection, which belies the huge emotional one they represent.
A bit scratched and marked after many happy years, but still doing their job!
Not the perfect wing position and no nice background but there’s that little carefree smile on his face. Happy First Day of Spring!
These little birds look as though they are going to nest on the shingle bank. Hopefully their nest is not destroyed as it's a well walked area.
This Neolithic Ring is one of the largest henges in Britain dating back to 2500 BC, predating Stonehenge, its more famous successor. (I've been to Stonehenge, but was unaware of Brogdan until I got to Orkney). It is part of the Neolithic Orkney World Heritage site that also includes nearby Skara Brae, the Stones of Stenness and Maeshowe. It is almost a perfect circle, 104 M in diameter, originally containing 60 standing stones, of which 27 remain. Scotland.

Wond'ring Aloud - Jethro Tull

Wond'ring aloud
How we feel today
Last night sipped the sunset
My hand in her hair
We are our own saviours
As we start
Both our hearts
Beating life
Into each other
Wond'ring aloud
Will the years treat us well?
As she floats in the kitchen
I'm tasting the smell
Of toast as the butter runs
Then she comes
Spilling crumbs
On the bed
And I shake my head
And it's only the giving
That makes you
What you are

Spring in Minnesota is simply spectacular. I have lived long enough to realize we are not out of snow possibilities yet but the return of multitudes of waterfowl of all sorts renews eager expectations of green grass, blue skies, gentle rains and the mournful sounds of our state bird emitting from our countless lakes.
In our area, Ring-necked Ducks like the mates in this photo are giving wetland ponds a vibrant look. These ducks are named for a ring around their neck that is usually hard to see from a distance but the distinctive white ring around their bill is prominent enough to make for an easy identification along with the striking yellow eyes on the male.
These ducks are diving ducks, a segment of the duck population that goes under water for much of their sustenance where they find everything from aquatic plants to seeds and even snails.
Wetland ponds are a favorite location for these ducks as females build their nest near the edge of the water in dense vegetation. Newly born ducklings when hatched are able to feed themselves and move independently almost immediately and can leave the nest within a day.
Not all ring-necked ducks stay here in our summers as Canada’s forests are a prime breeding spot for them although with the new tariffs many might choose to stay here this summer.
These ducks head south as the cold weather approaches and some go as far as Central America for the winter.

A day at the Yorkshire Wildlife Park.
Ring-tailed lemurs are listed as endangered on the IUCN red list.
Endemic to Madagascar, Ring-tailed lemurs are easy to spot due to their long, striped black and white tails. Thought to have floated to Madagascar on rafts of vegetation millions of years ago, lemur’s like many of Madagascan species have evolved very differently to other animals around the world due to Madagascar’s isolation. A fun fact for all the ladies out there, it is actually the females that are dominant in lemurs.
Ring-tailed lemurs use their distinctive tails to to communicate with each other, they will also use them in “stink battles” by rubbing scents on their tails and flicking them at other lemurs.
Ring-tailed lemurs spend a lot of their time on the ground (as you might notice when you are at the park) foraging for fruit, leaves, flowers, sap and tree bark to eat.
The rose-ringed parakeet, also known as the ring-necked parakeet, is a medium-sized parrot in the genus Psittacula, of the family Psittacidae The ring-necked, or rose-ringed, parakeet is the UK's most abundant naturalised parrot. It became established in the wild in the 1970s after captive birds escaped or were released.
The ring-necked parakeet's native range is a broad belt of arid tropical countryside stretching from west Africa across lowland India south of the Himalayas, where it is a common bird.
Species: Psittacula krameri.
The ring-necked, or rose-ringed, parakeet is the UK's most abundant naturalised parrot. It became established in the wild in the 1970s after captive birds escaped or were released.
Info: RSPB.
Although native to warmer climates in Northern Africa and Southern Asia, the parakeet has settled in for good in chilly Britain, where it is the most northerly, wild breeding parrot species on Earth.
These birds are now becoming regular visitors in gardens around the Stockport area.
