A return 4 day trip to RSPB Bempton on the 5th June with 3 Photo buddies. The weather was very cold for June, very unexpected.
Day 2
Another day with an onshore wind and bitterly cold in the wind.
A Rock Dove flying along Bempton Cliffs.
The Rock Dove is the wild ancestor of domestic pigeons the world over, domesticated originally to provide food. Feral Pigeons come in all shades, some bluer, others blacker - some are pale grey with darker chequered markings, others an unusual shade of dull brick-red or cinnamon-brown. Others can be or less white while others look exactly like wild rock doves.
Mt. Kyaiktiyo, Mon State, Burma (Myanmar)
Kyaiktiyo Pagoda also known as Golden Rock is a well-known Buddhist pilgrimage site in Mon State, Burma. It is a small pagoda built on the top of a granite boulder covered with gold leaves pasted on by its devotees.
Unfortunately, when I was visiting the pagoda in 2013, it was undergoing renovation and there were bamboo scaffolds surrounding it. I think the rock and pagoda look pretty cool even with the bamboo sticks around them.
Splendour Rock, Anzac Day, 1954.
This place is a few hours walk from near Katoomba in the middle of the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney. There is a plaque here to commemorate bushwalking soldiers (ANZACs) who died in WW2.
ANZAC stands for Australian & New Zealand Army Corps.

At the Face Rock State Scenic Viewpoint they have "Circles in the Sand" where they regularly create walkable ephemeral art. None of these particular rocks are the titular "Face Rock". The wind was wiping it away on my side and the tide would eventually take the rest.

Spinsters' Rock is a Neolithic dolmen near Drewsteignton. It consist of three granite supports rising to between 1.7 and 2.3 metres surmounted by a capstone.
Typical rock weathering on top of the hill near Ranchi. Is it a Megalith or simple geological weathering ? It also resembles to a sleeping man. Closed Lip like structure is also visible on left side of the rock. Local villagers dedicate this structure to some super power. Mystery of many such rock structures around Ranchi are still to be solved. Please see it in full screen.
This lighthouse stands on a rock to the south of the Isle of Man. It is a "mark of the course" for many offshore yacht races from Ireland. Due to the tides around this southerly point the sea can be "quite lumpy" here. Not this day though.

Llama Rock
Ah yes, summer in the American Southwest. Hot, dry, blazing sun, blue skies without a cloud anywhere, monsoon, dark stormy clouds, high winds, pounding rain, flooding and even some lightning and thunder…..all on the same day!
I couldn’t find a name on any maps for the distinctive rock feature under the lightning strike, so it now has a name "Llama Rock", wonder if it’ll catch on? I mean someone has to name interesting rock features, so why not me?

有在看我 " 囉嗦 " 的朋友就知道我在打" Rock Wren "這2個字時有多興奮高興了!!!
我可愛的小鳥, 你是有聽到我心中的呼喚嗎? 這樣倏然的出現, 我差點以為我看錯是一隻Sparrow哩! 一向只恨鏡頭太短, 昨天卻一直後退, 但距離還是太近不focus, 弄得我又急又氣, 好在這小鳥雖然一直跳上走下的, 但還是給了我1分鍾, 讓我照了幾張清楚的.
照完後高興的跑上山去, 告訴還在那等鷹飛起的朋友們, 不知道我心情的其他人, 恐怕以為這阿嬤 " 起笑 " 了( 台語: 瘋了之意)...
While in White Rock on Saturday, I took a brief walk
on the streets in the golden hour. I was lining up this shot
and this woman pushed past me, walking briskly.
"can't wait" she said, and I said "thanks, you just
improved my shot " :)
Living in the Pennines, Rock Pipit is a bird that I don't see very often, yet they are a common breeder around the rocky coasts of Britain. They are a bit bigger than Meadow Pipit, and have darker legs and smudgy breast markings with rather grey plumage. Here's a Meadow Pipit in a similar pose showing paler legs and crisper breast markings: www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/54475808177/in/photolist
I photographed this Rock Pipit on the Isle of Mull this spring where they were common and confiding.
Found in West Virginia!!! Proof that this place was covered by the ocean. My husband found this while working out in the field sampling water at a coal mine. He was in the area of Dorothy WV.
