ROBUST bird, strongly associated with forest thickets and dense vegetation where there are trees. Usually in pairs, rather elusive and sulking, so when one comes out into the open, I treated my camera like a machine gun lol.

A ROBUST and pugnacious little wader. The Turnstone has a short, stout, and triangular bill that is used to turn stones and tideline debris in search of seashore invertebrates, but I rather suspect that this sea defence bolder is it a bit too big by far ..........lol........Seen at Hampton, near Herne Bay Kent.

DUMPY AND ROBUST WADER, both the legs and bill are relatively short and stout. Just one of these beauties was seen, wading through rotting seaweed, at Minnis Bay Birchington Kent. A real joy for me and my fellow local bird photographers.

Robust songbird with short, fairly stout bill. Male pale gray above, pale orange below, with a bold white throat bordered in back. Female and immature are grayish above, pale below with extensive streaking that fades at buffy lower belly. Inhabits drier woodland and shrubland. Loud whistling song, given by both sexes. (eBird)
----------------
Comonly seen and heard but often difficult to photograph. I finally got an opportunity to capture this distant male perched out in the open. We'd been able to get fairly close to the females a few times, so this was a nice chance to complete the "set".
Capertee Valley, New South Wales, Australia. October 2022.
Eagle-Eye Tours - Eastern Australia.
ROBUST and familiar seabird, best known for its large and densely packed breeding colonies. The Guillemot swims well and dives frequently, its relatively narrow wings are also used when swimming underwater. Black and white but has a chocolate brown head and upperparts, seen in certain light.
Sexes are similar, and much loved by me. See on Skomer.

ROBUST AND PUGNACIOUS little wader, the Turnstone has a short, stout and triangular bill that is used to turn stones and tideiine debris in search of seashore invertebrates.

I've had a hard time identifying this pretty bird since I downloaded it. Merlin suggested a female White-breasted Whistler, but that would be rare. A quick check of my eBird checklists informed me we had a seen a Rufous Whistler and, et voilá, problem solved. A female Rufous Whistler (I hope). The eBird reviewer will be very quick to advise me if I am wrong.
Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, Australia. October 2022.
Eagle-Eye Tours - Tropical Australia.
ROBUST and familiar seabird, one of four seen at Dover Harbour, Kent UK, seen in winter plumage. The Guillemot swims well and dives frequently, it flies on whirring wing beats, and the relatively narrow wings are also used when swimming underwater, This is the only time of the year we may see a few of these passing through, this was seen today (Wed). A real joy !!

"JESUS is all you need in life, ask him into your life today !"
Robust songbird with a strong, pointed bill. Grayish overall except for brown back and pale spot between eyes and bill (lores). Immature similar but with faint streaks on breast; juvenile more heavily streaked still, with rusty eyebrow. Inhabits most treed environments in Australia, foraging in pairs from ground level into treetops. Sings a beautiful five-note song. (eBird)
----------------
We recorded these birds nearly every day during our travels, but they were usually very difficult to see. This photo is from our first encounter with the Gray Shrikethrush, and it really didn't want its photo taken. Still, I managed to get most of the bird in the frame before it disappeared back into the deep shadows.
Olive Pink Botanic Gardens, Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia. September 2022.
Robust warbler found near the ground in thick vegetation. Yellow below with blue-gray head and olive back. Adult males show black chest patch. Females are paler gray on the head; immatures are more olive-toned with a yellowish throat. Breeds in brushy, weedy clearings within mixed or coniferous forest. Often favors raspberry thickets. Tends to stay hidden in low vegetation, so can be difficult to see. Listen for its rolling song, “churry churry churry chew.” Most similar to MacGillivray’s Warbler, but little range overlap, and Mourning has somewhat shorter tail and lacks bold white eye-arcs. Also frequently confused with Common Yellowthroat, especially in fall, but Mourning is larger, with heftier pinkish bill, and brighter yellow underparts. (eBird)
---------------
When we arrived at the trail, we could hear him singing deep in the tangles below the path. We looked high and low, and finally resigned ourselves to a "heard" tick for this lovely warbler. After spending a hour or two on the trail, in the company of mosquitoes, we headed back to the car. A large crowd of people alerted us to something good and there he was, out in the open, singing for all to hear.
Pine Grove Trail, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. May 2023.
This is taken on the veranda of the Rocket Cafe Cromer. Scared of heights, forty foot drop but no camera shake ! Note robust fence! It was a beautiful bright day after two days of driving rain.

Catedral de Burgos, cimborrio.
El cimborrio se levanta sobre robustas columnas que se cruzan en las naves longitudinal y transversal. Sobre este espacio existió anteriormente una bóveda sencilla de crucería, que en el siglo XV el obispo D. Luis de Acuña ordenó derribar para sustituirla por un cuerpo de luces que construyeron los Colonia, Juan y Simón, y que finalmente estaría concluido hacia finales del siglo XV. Esta obra, que era de gran belleza según los testimonios de viajeros europeos, no duró ni cincuenta años, pues se cuartearon sus columnas y se desplomó, con gran estrépito, la noche del 3 al 4 de marzo de 1539.
La reconstrucción comenzó aquel mismo año con las aportaciones del Obispo, Cabildo de Canónigos, Regimiento de la ciudad, nobles y pueblo, que rivalizaron aportando cuantiosos fondos. Un año después, en 1540, Felipe Vigarny (que trabajaba en Toledo) fue reclamado por el Concejo burgalés para que opinara y presentara un proyecto sobre la reconstrucción del hundido crucero de la Catedral. Parece que también fueron consultados Diego de Siloé y Rodrigo Gil. Finalmente se encargó la obra a Juan de Vallejo y Francisco de Colonia, trabajando además en la misma numerosos canteros y escultores. En 1555 estaba casi concluido, pero las obras se prolongaron hasta 1568.

It measures about 10 centimeters. The White-throated Hummingbird is robust, and easy to identify because it has a white throat and chest, separated by a green band.
This is a species without Sexual Dimorphism, that is, there is not apparent difference between males and females.
Scientific ID: Leucochloris albicollis
Here in a cute pose, very serene while I photographed him (or her).
I suggest you view large.

Shot with the SJCAM SJ8 Pro actioncam. The EXIF data ist not present in the RAW image. The used Sony IMX377 sensor (the same as in my Nexus 5X) delivers quiet impressive results for a sensor of only 1/2.3" size.
An actioncam has not the best and biggest sensor or high quality optics but the ultrawideangle look that you can get is unbeaten for the weight, price and robustness. As many of them now also support RAW it has become my ultrawideangle lens replacement. In the narrow streets of cities a piece of gold in my pocket.
ROBUST AND PUGNACIOUS LITTLE WADER, the turnstone has a short, stout and triangular bill, that is used to turn stones and tideline debris in search of seashore invertebrates. This is their summer breeding plumage.

The chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes), also known as the common chimpanzee, robust chimpanzee, or simply chimp, is a species of great ape native to the forest and savannah of tropical Africa. The great apes are: chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans.
Wild chimpanzees only live in Africa. Humans and chimpanzees share 95 to 98 percent of the same DNA. Biologically, chimpanzees are more closely related to humans than they are to gorillas. Chimpanzees and other species, including some types of birds, make and use tools. For a long time, scientists thought human beings were the only ones who made tools. Chimpanzees use more tools for more purposes than any other creatures except humans.
In captivity, chimpanzees can be taught human languages such as ASL (American Sign Language). A female chimp named Washoe knew more than 240 signs. Chimpanzees can catch or be infected with human diseases. Chimpanzees in the wild rarely live longer than 50 years. Captive chimps can live more than 60 years.
