Phaethornis eurynome - Only large hermit hummingbird in its range with black feathers on the throat giving it a scaled appearance. The bill is slightly curved. The back is olive-green and it has a strong mask. The tail is long and white-tipped. Similar to Dusky-throated Hermit, but Scale-throated Hermit is bigger with a longer tail. Found in the understory of humid and montane forests.
Happy Tuesday!

This chickadee was in our big apple tree earlier today, and came down low on the trunk for a nice portrait shoot.
Snakes, like other reptiles, have skin covered in scales. Snakes are completely covered with keratinous scales or shields, of various shapes and sizes. The scales protect their body and, aid in locomotion, allow to maintain humidity within it, alter surface characteristics such as roughness to aid in camouflage, and in some cases they are even useful in capturing their prey.
...really against a harsh hot environment. When one sees the vast dry White Sands Park one really sees the scale and strange environment that a flower can even grow. Yes I laid down to get image - soft for a change but then found sand everywhere, Had to be extra careful changing lens here.

The Dinorwic quarry (/dɪˈnɔːrwɪɡ/ din-OR-wig; Welsh: [dɪˈnɔrwɪɡ]; also known as Dinorwig quarry) is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in North Wales. It was[when?] the second largest slate quarry in Wales, indeed in the world, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda.[1]
It covered more than 700 acres (283 ha) consisting of two main quarry sections with 20 galleries in each and a number of ancillary workings. Extensive internal tramway systems connected the quarries using inclines to transport slate between galleries

This comparatively large hummingbird, which is endemic to the Atlantic Forest biome, is easily identified within its range by virtue of it being the only larger, predominantly green and gray-plumaged hermit, with a rather long, decurved, bill.
Wishing everyone a Peaceful Thursday!

A little backlight but not something I see everyday so thought I'd upload it anyway. There were a few chicks circling the base of the fencepost but too hidden by the sage to get a shot.
A little beauty - enjoying the nectar of the sage flower - at Tapiraí, São Paulo.
Happy Sunday!

I chose the wrong time to visit this waterfall, a great lack of water.. there is the remains of an old mill on the site, not much remains and it is mostly covered by the undergrowth.
A simple shot from my S scale model railroad. Shot with the Olympus E-M1.
The New Haven RR boxcar at left is a "hirail" version that came ready to run from S Helper Service. The reefer at right was a "shake the box" scale wooden kit from Kinsman.

While in Nevada, I managed to head out early to get a few shots from Red Rock Canyon National Conservation located roughly 20-miles west of downtown Las Vegas.
This is a 13-shot panoramic image at 40mm.
