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.
The Blacksmith's Plover was one of the more common birds we encountered on our Safari. They occupy grasslands, often closely water and I believe were seen in all of the parks we visited. This particular one was photographed in the Amboseli Nature Reserve which incidentally was where we came across the largest variety of birdlife.
The bird is also known as a Blacksmith's Lapwing. Apparently it gains its name from the repeated metallic 'tink, tink, tink' alarm call, which suggests a blacksmith's hammer striking an anvil.

I was out trying to chase some mammatus clouds and found myself hunting a lighthouse. The lighthouse wasn't working the way I'd hoped so I left the location. As I was walking back I heard calls coming from a woman nearby. "Come on, let's go" I heard her call. I noticed the bright red jacket bustling over the rocks towards the yelling mother. He seemed to be studying the papers in his hand and didn't realize how far he'd gone out. I quickly snapped a shot of him center stage. The storm was over, a happy mother.

I am always amazed at the long stride, grace, and power a moose uses to walk through the snow. Perfectly adapted to it's environment, this moose was strolling among the willows, stripping bark and paying little attention to us as we watched this beautiful and interesting animal in Yellowstone National Park.
This path heads up toward West Kennet Long Barrow, the construction of which began just over five thousand six hundred years ago. I find that a little difficult to comprehend, to be honest!
