Doesn't take much of an effort for this Grizzly Bear sow to maneuver over this dead fall.

On the road to Plymouth from London. .... these wild horses roam the park.

This is certainly one of Tollymore's iconic locations although this is the main stepping stones I found myself liking the smaller ones up stream better. This was a tricky place to shoot due to the amount of people enjoying this amazing please. Just out of frame was a line of photographers, walkers, runners dogs. If you were lucky you might get a 3 or 4 second window to take a shot without anyone in it at one point I had about 20 people on the steps in full game of thrones attire.

Another shot of the lapwing stepping out across the frozen Rushy Pen lake early yesterday morning. It was bitterly cold and only 3 degrees celsius when this was taken!

Not all is as it seems. The lady of course is part of a poster, but a very convincing one I must say. The compression of the image is due to the long lens I shot this with (from across the street). It took awhile to get someone framed exactly by her leg in that position. The biggest problem were all the taxi cabs which were queuing here (in front of Harrads in Knightsbridge) as they kept getting into the shot.

... the "cat door" for the very first time.

It was a great moment for Nelli this morning after staying inside for 6 weeks. Mira, her sister, didn't dare to leave the safe home yet.

Happy Sunday !

White-faced Heron (Egretta novaehollandiae)

A look back to this day in 2019 and a visit to the Heathdale - Glen Orden Wetlands

This Swallowtail butterfly was taken at Polk Park Hellertown, Pa

I finally got brave enough to step out of my backyard and go to Polk Park to take some pictures of some butterflies...wore my mask...didn't scare away the butterflies....overall it was a great day!! :)

as evening falls

Mist rises from the cool water, as velvet clouds float overhead. A morning stroll along the marshlands of San Francisco Bay is always good for the soul.

Another shot from the lower Greeto Falls.

Snowy Egret and Reddish Egret in the marsh lands on Galveston Island.

Redshank (Tringa totanus)

Woke up this morning blues around my head

No need to ask the reason why.

I'm stepping out.

This Sora (Porzana carolina) was staying largely out of sight while foraging in a hedgerow at Chicago's Montrose Point Bird Sanctuary last week. But I was able to capture this image when it stepped briefly into an opening while passing from one brushy area to another. The Sora is a small, secretive marshbird whose range includes Central and North America.

...Broke tooth, Monday

Something's not the same

Blank head crossed eyes sweet to flood

Feel your presence in your absence shut the door

House on fire leave it all behind you

Darkest night let the lightning guide you

Step outside

Time to step outisde, time to step outside

House on fire leave it all behind you.

This years BEST of 2022, still going with what would be the hardest of my favorites to duplicate, I had a couple of still life shots I loved but could easily duplicate them, I had one of my most viewed photos this year over 300,000 views but still this one would be the hardest to duplicate...Stepping Out of the Bath, with the bokeh in background. A Sliders Sunday post photo fix.

This fix took the bird from a silhouette to details in the wet feathers and color...altering a photo can be a good thing.

Sooty Oystercatcher (Haematopus fuliginosus)

Seen in the shallows at Lorne foreshore.

Well they say life is full of choices but for how i see things if you step out of the line you probably get much more chances to be the first one eaten by the big bad wolf This just in case you don't have the stamina to become a big bad wolf

yourself.:))

I was sitting beside Lake Nicaragua when this purple gallinule (porphyrio martinicus) stepped out of the dense water plants at the edge of the lake.

White-necked Heron (Ardea pacifica)

This Heron seems to return to the Heathdale - Glen Orden Wetlands around this time each year.
