Barrel and copper beech trees on the avenue leading into Powerscourt Estate, Co. Wicklow.
I loved doing the bus tour on this trip, since we were able to see so much of the city. The only downside is that most of the pics are just of buildings. But at least they're cool buildings with cool perspectives.

After rubbing scent on the oak branch this whitetail buck scraped the ground underneath. He will check it frequently to see if another buck is marking over him.
The deep glow of twilight illuminates fog, surrounding a Whitetail buck who reaches for a licking branch while making a scrape.
One of those amazing moments when weather, light, and behavior all come together.

The northern lapwing (Vanellus vanellus), also known as the peewit or pewit, tuit or tew-it, green plover, or (in Britain and Ireland) pyewipe or just lapwing, is a bird in the lapwing family. It is common through temperate Eurosiberia. It is highly migratory over most of its extensive range, wintering further south as far as North Africa, northern India, Nepal, Bhutan and parts of China. It migrates mainly by day, often in large flocks. Lowland breeders in westernmost areas of Europe are resident. It occasionally is a vagrant to North America, especially after storms, as in the Canadian sightings after storms in December 1927 and in January 1966. It is a wader that breeds on cultivated land and other short vegetation habitats. 3–4 eggs are laid in a ground scrape. The nest and young are defended noisily and aggressively against all intruders, up to and including horses and cattle. In winter, it forms huge flocks on open land, particularly arable land and mud-flats.
Cape Tribulation fu battezzato così dal navigatore britannico tenente James Cook il 10 giugno 1770 dopo che la sua nave raschiò una barriera corallina a nord-est del promontorio, mentre vi passava sopra, alle 18:00.
Cook si allontanò dalla costa per dirigersi in acque più profonde, ma alle 22:30 la nave si incagliò su quello che oggi è chiamato Endeavour Reef.
Con la nave bloccata e gravemente danneggiata, erano necessarie misure disperate per evitare che affondasse fino a quando non fosse stata rimessa a galla il giorno successivo. Cook registrò il promontorio con il nome di Cape Tribulation con l'annotazione "perché qui iniziarono tutti i nostri guai ".
Cape Tribulation was named by British navigator Lieutenant James Cook on June 10, 1770 after his ship scraped a coral reef northeast of the promontory while passing over it at 6 p.m.
Cook moved away from the coast into deeper water, but at 10.30pm the ship ran aground on what is now called Endeavor Reef.
With the ship stranded and badly damaged, desperate measures were needed to prevent her from sinking until she was refloated the next day. Cook recorded the headland as Cape Tribulation with the notation "for here began all our troubles".

Love this shot , so pleased with it, just clicked at the right time. Love the gull at the bottom, it’s legs are wide apart
But, there is no other buck around this scrape. I made it with doe estrus and buck urine. There are some other bucks in this area, so I'm hoping this will turn into a real scrape. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
Some trouble from my camera wherein it died and came back to life with brainmeat problems for a while. This does not aid me in displaying the amazing humans i get to play with.
This whitetail buck is rubbing his preorbital glands on leaves above a scrape. Scrapes are always made under an overhead branch so this can take place. There is some controversary about this activity as to whether scent is being applied or it is merely pleasurable to rub while working a scrape. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
The further into the watery canyons of Lake Powell you go, the narrower they become, until eventually there are only inches on each side of the boat. This requires very slow going and a steady hand on each side to keep from scraping against the rock walls. If you look closely you can see two people in the front of the boat with their hands against the walls as well. We actually made it through this narrow spot to an open cove where we jumped in the water to cool off. Water skiing may be very popular all over Lake Powell, but in this area we barely went 1 mph! This is what was right around yesterday's bend, seen in comments below.
I'm hoping these summer shots will help a little to warm all of you in sub-freezing weather across the midwest and eastern U.S. right now. It was over 110 degrees when we were at Lake Powell.

QBX003, 8037 and CM3302 attract the last moments of sun in the area, as they work 3112 up Morrisons Hill bound for Sydney.

Today's prompt was Scrape. A paint scraper. I honestly couldn't decide what to draw for the prompt. A scraped knee, nails scraping on a blackboard or someone scraping the bottom of a barrel. In the end, I was fairly pleased with the sketch, but the prompt left very little room for manoeuver.
Young Black Bear cub showing some signs of scuffle. Hopefully they're just from some rough play with his brother and not from an adult male.
Columbia tower on a moody day. Cloud cover was perfect for what I had in mind, execution is a little on the iffy side. I'm not in love with the composition but it gives me a good idea what I would like to try in the future.
A young buck comes into a scrape in early morning light. Only to be run off by a much bigger 8-pt. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
This buck is sniffing the leaves and rubbing scent on the leaves above a scrape. Four scrapes in this area. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
This mallard was on the scrape at Summer Leys today and swam past calling. A couple of minutes later a female flew in and landed to the left of the hide. Almost instantly the male came swimming back calling again.
The Hague's tallest buildings seem to scrape the dark clouds, while the sun also played a large role in illuminating the foreground.
