Brant/Brent Goose - Branta bernicla
The brant, or brent goose (Branta bernicla), is a species of goose of the genus Branta. The black brant is a pacific North American subspecies.
It used to be a strictly coastal bird in winter, seldom leaving tidal estuaries, where it feeds on eel-grass (Zostera marina) and the seaweed, sea lettuce (Ulva). On the east coast of North America, the inclusion of sea lettuce is a recent change to their diet, brought about by a blight on eelgrass in 1931. This resulted in the near-extirpation of the brant. The few that survived changed their diet to include sea lettuce until the eelgrass eventually began to return. Brants have maintained this diet ever since as a survival strategy. In recent decades, it has started using agricultural land a short distance inland, feeding extensively on grass and winter-sown cereals. This may be behavior learned by following other species of geese. Food resource pressure may also be important in forcing this change, as the world population increased over 10-fold to 400,000-500,000 by the mid-1980s, possibly reaching the carrying capacity of the estuaries. In the breeding season, it uses low-lying wet coastal tundra for both breeding and feeding. The nest is bowl-shaped, lined with grass and down, in an elevated location, often near a small pond.
The brant goose is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds applies.

Powerful men might sometimes appear less powerful for a variety of reasons, influenced by their behavior, demeanor, or choices in personal presentation.
Operational Strategy: In some cases, powerful men might use a low-key approach as a strategic move, whether in business, politics, or personal interactions. This can help them maneuver more freely and gather more honest reactions from others.

... of the floral variety. Shooting stars are my favorite wildflowers. They are essentially primroses with reflexed petals. They were previously placed in their own genus (Dodecatheon) based on this remarkable floral trait, but have recently been put back into the primrose group (Primula).
The petal positioning of shooting stars would seem to hinder pollinators from landing on the flower. However they rely on a "buzz" pollination strategy, where vibration of the pollinator's (usually bumble bees) flight muscles causes tightly held pollen to fall off the anthers and land on the legs and body of the pollinator or directly on to the stigma of the same flower. Buzz pollination occurs in other species with similar flower morphology, such as some plants in the tomato family.
Instead of standing in water and getting her feathers wet, the great egret watched from the boardwalk and spot a big fish for afternoon meal. What a smart bird knowing how to strategize her hunting skill.

This captivating image showcases a graceful snowy egret standing at the water's edge in Vasona Lake Park, Los Gatos. The bird's pristine white plumage creates a striking contrast against the muted greens and browns of its surroundings. With its slender neck extended and keen yellow eye alert, the egret appears poised and watchful, perhaps scanning the shallow waters for its next meal. The scene is rich with natural textures - from the bird's delicate feathers to the mix of fallen leaves, aquatic plants, and rippling water at its feet. This photograph beautifully captures the serene coexistence of wildlife within the park's diverse ecosystem, offering viewers a moment of tranquility and a glimpse into the patient hunting strategies of these elegant waders.
Attenzione alle vostre mosse sulla scacchiera della vita. E' difficile prevedere le mosse del nemico, specialmente se il nemico è un gatto, o perfino una banda di gatti addirittura.
Dichiarate la resa, prima dell'umiliazione dello "scacco matto", che sicuramente vi attende.
Il coraggio ha occhio di tigre, ma la strategia è dei gatti!
Be careful of your moves on the chessboard of life. It is difficult to predict the enemy's moves, especially if the enemy is a cat, or even a gang of cats.
Declare your surrender, before the humiliation of "checkmate" that surely awaits you.
Courage has the eye of a tiger, but strategy is that of cats!

Ci pensate mai a cosa servono i fiori? Superata la stagione fredda, appena possibile e con l'aumentare dell'ernergia solare, le piante si attivano. In modi estremamente vari creano i fiori, meravigliose trappole visive e odorose per attirare gli insetti e sfruttarli per la propria riproduzione. In cambio, offrono nettare e nutrimento. Appena il periodo è finito, si liberano dei petali e di ciò che non serve e iniziano a usare le proprie risorse per creare frutti e semi e riprodursi.
Trovo che questo ciclo biologico pre-programmato sia assolutamente straordinario. Niente male per un piccolo pianeta azzurro vicino ad una stella infuocata in una galassia qualsiasi dell'universo.
E forse, questa cosa dei fiori, delle stagioni, della vita... è accaduta solo qui e in nessun altro luogo, quanto meno con caratteristiche simili.
Quando vedete un fiore, sorridete. Siete fortunat* a poterlo vedere
