Though my body and my heart wither away, God will forever be the rock of my heart and my portion. psalm 73,26
I was up before sunrise and went for a wander from our BnB. The rock is probably one that was once pushed by a glacier but now makes a bold ah statement as a gatepost.
Have a good day.
Rock ptarmigan, Lagopus muta, kiiruna, Finland.
In Finland rock ptarmigans are found only in the highlands of Lapland. They live above the tree line year round and use plants and berries for food. In winter they take cover in the snow and can stay there most of the day. Quite tough birds, I would say.
OK, that is just a fancy title for the common pigeon. Common, but their plumage can be quite interesting, with a bit of iridescence in the mix. With the light being iffy for photography today, I decided to try something in Photoshop instead of driving around looking for critters or landscapes. This is a composite of 6 images (4 pigeon pics plus 2 for the background).
If you want to climb the top-rock in the Coyote Buttes North, there are two routes. The fastest, but not necessarily the easiest route steeply uphill behind the Second Wave. There is no mark, you have to find your way.
The picture was taken during the ascent in the morning in indirect light.

Happy MM!
Uluru (Ayers Rock) at sunset time.
I am fully aware that millions of photos of this Australian landmark have already been taken. And of course many of them are more spectacular than this one. But nevertheless, it is a great experience to travel to this place and wait for the sunset (of course there a lot of other people doing the same, one is definitely not alone). It was a hot evening with clear sky and a wonderful sunset.
Many thanks for your visits / comments / faves!

Rock Ptarmigan was a highlight species on our two journeys up and down the Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk Highway in Canada’s Northwest Territories. This male was just starting to molt into its breeding plumage, so had mostly the white winter plumage and was keeping close to the few snowbanks still found close to the road. The feathered feet, an adaptation to cold temperatures, are visible in this image.
