A pre-dawn sunrise. The cloud cover was not ideal, but I like the two windows spilling yellow light across the Sound.

From our trip to Sitka Alaska for the annual whale festival. While on the water we came across a pod of humpbacks feeding together. It would have been nice if the herring were on the surface so they'd have been lunge feeding, but the herring were at 400 feet according to the depth finder. So they were surfacing and sounding together to go after the feast before heading out to the warmer waters of Hawaii for sex and babies.

The smoke in the air created a warm look to the rocks.

My first time to use video lights and effects. :)

Black Bears are normally silent animals, but they will make blowing noises (also called woofing or huffing) and clack their teeth (also called jaw popping) when they are agitated or nervous. The woofing sound is actually an air noise (inhaling and exhaling a number of times in rapid succession). In some situations, Black Bears make a moaning sound when they are afraid. They also make bawling sounds, but bawling happens primarily with cubs (although an adult bear may bawl loudly if it is injured).
When you hear a Black Bear vocalizing, it is basically letting you know that it does not feel comfortable with your presence. This should be considered as a warning from the bear that you are too close, and sometimes this behavior can provoke defensive behaviors such as bluff charging or slapping one or both front feet on the ground.
For complete information on bear vocalizations with video/audio clips, visit my blog post here.
A lovely pic from last year's Balaton Sound festival (2012, Zamárdi, Hungary). / Naplemente a 2012-es Balaton Soundon.
This plucky gull was guarding one of the towers of Caernarfon Castle, once he/she realised that my camera was not edible the alarm was sounded :)
Prior to World War II and the invention of radar, acoustic mirrors were built as early warning devices around the coasts of Great Britain, with the aim of detecting incoming enemy aircraft by the sound of their engines. The most famous of these devices still stand at Denge on the Dungeness peninsula and at Hythe in Kent. Other examples exist in other parts of Britain (including Sunderland, Redcar, Boulby, Kilnsea) and Selsey Bill, and Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq in Malta. The Maltese sound mirror is known locally as "the ear" (il-Widna) and appears to be the only sound mirror built outside Great Britain.
Acoustic mirrors at Denge
The Dungeness mirrors, known colloquially as the "listening ears", consist of three large concrete reflectors built in the 1920s–1930s. Their experimental nature can be discerned by the different shapes of each of the three reflectors: one is a long, curved wall about 5 m high by 70 m long, while the other two are dish-shaped constructions approximately 4–5 m in diameter. Microphones placed at the foci of the reflectors enabled a listener to detect the sound of aircraft far out over the English Channel. The reflectors are not parabolic, but are actually spherical mirrors.[1] Spherical mirrors may be used for direction finding by moving the sensor rather than the mirror; another unusual example is the Arecibo Observatory.
Acoustic mirrors had a limited effectiveness, and the increasing speed of aircraft in the 1930s meant that they would already be too close to deal with by the time they had been detected. The development of radar put an end to further experimentation with the technique. Nevertheless, there were long-lasting benefits. The acoustic mirror programme, led by Dr William Sansome Tucker, had given Britain the methodology to use interconnected stations to pin point the position of an enemy in the sky. The system they developed for linking the stations and plotting aircraft movements was given to the early radar team and contributed to their success in World War II; although the British radar was less sophisticated than the German system, the British system was used more successfully.
There are three acoustic mirrors in the complex, each consisting of a single concrete hemispherical reflector.
The 200 foot mirror is a near vertical, curved wall, 200 feet (60m) long. It is one of only two similar acoustic mirrors in the world, the other being in Magħtab, Malta.
The 20 foot mirror is similar to the 30 foot mirror, with a smaller, shallower dish 6 m (20 ft) across. The design is close to that of an acoustic mirror in Kilnsea, East Riding of Yorkshire.
Acoustic mirrors did work, and could effectively be used to detect slow moving enemy aircraft before they came into sight. They worked by concentrating sound waves towards a central point, where a microphone would have been located. However, their use was limited as aircraft became faster. Operators also found it difficult to distinguish between aircraft and seagoing vessels. In any case, they quickly became obsolete due to the invention of radar in 1932. The experiment was abandoned, and the mirrors left to decay. The gravel extraction works caused some undermining of at least one of the structures.

Only this week fifteen bathers and bodyboarders were rescued off this very beach at Perranporth after being caught out by strong rip tides. Good work by the RNLI in keeping all of our beaches safe in Cornwall.
