Striding briskly along, this bison covered a lot of ground in a short period of time. His horns show signs of combat so he has been around the ring a time or two. I love his hairdo; brushed forward in a Quiff!
The magpie remains my all time bogey bird.
So often seen yet seemingly impossible for me to get a good shot.
At least I'm starting to make progress.

Many thanks as always to those kind enough to comment and fave my photos or even to drop by for a quick peek. It is very much appreciated.

These insects are spectacular to observe. They are gliding on water surface, preferring calm waters, of course. But how do they do it?
This photo shows nicely that the surface of water is curved on all 6 points where the animal is touching it. The 6 dark dots are shadows of those curvings. They distribute their weight carefully on all 6 points, but this picture shows that the rear legs are touching water surface on larger area, not only at their tips. That creates enough surface tension to float. Rear legs are used more or less for floating and navigating, while very fast movements ahead are provided by front legs.
And there is more. When you read more about these animals, you learn that their legs are covered by thousands of tiny hair per milimeter. That results in small air bubbles, helping them additionally to float. Even if due to turmoil they get under water, due to that air they immediately float on surface.
So, here you see that nature has found a way of walking on water, different that the one that Jesus found ;)
This shot was taken on Tenby beach, Pembrokeshire, Wales. I've been experimenting with using Luminar for editing my images with mixed results although I'd put that down to my unfamiliarity with the software rather than any faults it may have. For the last few years most of my PC editing has been done using Capture One 12 for Sony and whilst it is in my opinion a bit of a daunting piece of software like so many things in life, you get used to its quirks and flaws. Capture One is going onto a subscription type payment system so I read somewhere and rather than go down that road I thought I'd try the inexpensive Luminar.
Have any of you used Luminar and if so, what's your thoughts?
Scene of a Razorbeak Strider cavalry rider, sent out into the Dunelands to cull the numbers of the fearsome desert basilisks.
Built for the "Beast Masters" category of the 2024 Summer Joust
And shout out to choopyjups for his recent post of his mechanical ostrich cavalry. As I commented there, I was making steampunk versions of an ostrich walker, but decided to make this organic version for the Summer Joust, to help them kick off this year's contest in style.
Reddish Egret
Egretta rufescens
Reddish egrets hunt by racing around in shallow water, hoping to scare up some fish. Much of the time they spread out their wings as they do so. Alas, when this one did it was running away from me, and much farther away. There's always next time!
Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Brevard County, FL
Here's a shot from the archive of my long term Montanan pal Mike. He's not a great one for heights so I guess the cloud that had engulfed the ridge made him feel a little more at ease.
Striding Lion, a wall relief made from polychrome glazed, fired bricks, is one of the most iconic objects on display at the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto. It came from Babylon, Iraq, and dates to the time of Nebuchadnezzar II (605-562 BCE), king of the Neo-Babylonian Empire. Striding Lion is one of many such reliefs that decorated the walls of the palace's ceremonial hall and very similar to the lions that line the processional way from the Ishtar Gate to the temple of Marduk.
A fairly intimidating sight as the ragged jawline of Striding Edge revealed its teeth. In the murky atmosphere of the day with clouds draped over the edge it certainly got the pulse racing!
