Yup, I blinked first.

Love their oh-so-serious looks and expressions. I had taken several shots of this bald eagle and I think he was weary of my clicks and attention.

He soon left, pic shown in comments.

Thanks for your looks though!

I wanna fall asleep forever

I wanna learn to disappear

Can you take away the mess, that’s been building in my chest

Drowning out the song I used to hear

Love’s a violent word, don’t you forget it

I ain’t saying that you ever could

I’ve seen my seasons change

I was crying out your name

Remember when we used to feel so good

So don’t forget to love me in damnation

For the living I have earned on love gone wrong

And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration

If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song

You got your honest intuition

You got your cigarette smoke

And I’m all your oldest fears, the black mark on last year

But I got the hope you let me hold

So let them judge and shove us under

And let them do the devil’s work

Let them calculate the crimes in all our broken rhymes

But let us find the heaven following the hurt

So don’t forget to love me in damnation

For the living I have earned on love gone wrong

And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration

If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song

The collard aracari a beautiful bird and wonderful detail on his beak. His markings make me think of a zipper. He is truly beautiful and it is always a thrill when they fly in. Their eye is amazing and you simply can not get away from the definite stare,

Wishing you a beautiful and blessed Friday !!

Ein kleiner Trupp Stare (Sturnus vulgaris) die durch einen Hund beim fressen gestört worden sind fliegen auf. Sofort entsteht eine Kugel aus Vögeln die gemeinsam in Richtung einem alten großen Eiche fliegen.

Inquisitive Stare was taken at The Hunter Nature Center which is located in the Bronx, New York, near the Long Island Sound, that is connected to the Atlantic Ocean. On the day that I photographed this beautiful animal, I woke up early that morning and went out to make fog pictures. As I was wakling alone on the trail, up from no where was this lovely deer, which I found to be fascinating; Both of us were surprised to see each other. We stared at each and soon as I made my picture, he just walk away. He gave me an excellent pose and a beautiful picture. I love it very much and hope you like it too.

Another day, another antelope. In a staring 'contest", the animal always wins. I am too busy fumbling with my camera and marveling at their beauty. Antelopes always look so unusual when captured from the front. The park in Nairobi was a great way to start off a safari.

Stare [in explore]

The Old Town in Warsaw was established in the 13th century but almost totally demolished in the second World War. After the war Old Town was meticulously rebuilt. As many as possible of the original bricks were reused. However the reconstruction was not necessarily built accurately to pre-war Warsaw, often by deferring to an earlier period, attempting to improve upon the original, or by adding an authentic looking facade to cover a more modern building. The rubble was sifted for reusable decorative elements, which were reinserted into their original places.

Today Old town in Warsaw is listed as one of Unescos world heritages sites.

long black train

josh turner

There's a long black train

Coming down the line

Feeding off the souls that are lost and crying

Rails of sin only evil remains

Watch out brother for that long black train

Look to the heavens

You can look to the skies

You can find redemption

Staring back into your eyes

There is protection and there's peace the same

Burnin' your ticket for that long black train

'Cause there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

There's an engineer on that long black train

Making you wonder if your ride is worth the pain

He's just a waitin' on your heart to say

Let me ride on that long black train

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

Well I can hear the whistle from a mile away

It sounds so good

But I must stay away

That train is a beauty making everybody stare

But its only destination is the middle of nowhere

But you know there's victory in the Lord I say

Victory in the Lord

Cling to the Father and his holy name

And don't go riding on that long black train

I said cling to the father and his holy name and don't go ridin' on that black train

Yes watch out brother for that long black train

That devil's a drivin' that long black train

A capture using the new lens to test a close-up portrait of the beloved Max looking towards me with those "love me" eyes....

Pushing my limits on the ISO at 2800 in dark light as well just to see how far I can push the camera and lens.

Stare

Nothing like the stare of a cat.

Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open.

Alexander Graham Bell

Man könnte meinen, ihnen gefällt das Wetter auch nicht.

You might think they don't like the weather either.

Stare sind allseits bekannte Brutvögel in Deutschland. Auffällig sind vor allem die großen Schwärme, in denen sie sich außerhalb der Brutzeit zusammenfinden und spektakuläre Formationsflüge vollführen. Ihr Gefieder ist überwiegend dunkel und schimmert gerade im Frühjahr grünlich, violett und bronzefarben.

We have no time to stand and stare?"

Eastern Meadowlark -

Note - other shots from this 'sitting' are in the comments below.

From Audubon:

A familiar bird, known by the black "V" on its chest when it sings from a fencepost, or by the flash of white tail feathers when it flushes from the grass. The clear whistled song of the Eastern Meadowlark can be heard in spring not only in the East but also in desert grasslands of the Southwest. Some scientists believe that the southwestern form is actually a different species. Other races of the Eastern Meadowlark are widespread in Central America and northern South America.

An Osprey gives me an intense stare after landing on top of an old hydro pole. They are magnificent birds to photograph whether perched or in flight.

Sulawesi crested macaques at Dublin Zoo. Don't stare too long, or they'll start to control your thoughts.

The sign actually says 'The Perfect Crime'..... Felt very uncomfortable putting this gentleman up on Flickr without a very amusing and disarming title. I couldn't think of one so I have cropped it! Hence it is significantly more grainy than I would have liked.

Thanks for visiting......
