“I'm not going down on my knees begging you to adore me

Can't you see it's misery and torture for me?

When I'm misunderstood, try as hard as you can

I've tried as hard as I could

To make you see

How important it is for me

 

Here is a plea from my heart to you

Nobody knows me as well as you do

You know how hard it is for me to shake the disease

That takes hold of my tongue in situations like these

Understand me…”

Grey heron (Ardea cinerea)

Even in sunny Florida this Reddish Egret needs to fluff up its feathers to help regulate its body temperature.

Monday is over, shake it off

I have named him scar as he has an open wound on his neck and an older injury on his flank.

 

Although the neck wound looks nasty it doesn't seem to be impeding him unduly. While we watched him he caught numerous fish so he certainly is capable of hunting.

Only 8-ish miles into the shakedown run of the fresh CSX pair down the mainline and we have them stopped for a bit at Kenova, WV so we can nab an over-under with NS train 217. It's good to be king!

I got to spend some time alone with this cutie today. I think it was showing off for me by doing The Shake :-).

Today was one of the first summer days in Northern Germany. So we went for a walk to the wildlife park. The bears took a bath in their little pool and had a lot of fun - we had that too, it was a joy to watch them!

In this photo you can see how one of them shaked the water out of his thick fur. Wow!

Podiceps cristatus

A Tricolored Heron shakes out its breeding plumage along the shoreline, releasing a small cloud of dust and loose feathers.

Spending some time with these elegant Grebes down on the local pool, this is the closest i have come to getting some pic`s of the courtship display.

Sometimes watching birds could be so funny...

So, if you want to say something about my photo, it will be really appreciated, no matter if it's about liking or some constructive criticism. Your own thoughts and words will mean much more to me than a universal-text.

Also please don't post pictures in the commenting-area. You could post them much better in your own photo stream. ;-D

For Macro Mondays - Motion Blur

 

My intention was to freeze the leaf with the strobe, and capture the motion blur of the falling water drops in the ambient light. I applied the water stream to the leaf with a syringe - the stream moved the leaf down and to the right, into the ambient light, and the drop fell into a dark area lit mostly by the strobe. The image that resulted was the opposite of what I had intended, but I liked it...

Mostly I like to do light and bright shots, but occasionally I'll try for a darker look as with this preening great blue heron.
