Stout shorebird with a bright stubby bill. Note orange legs, often bright on spring adults. Breeding plumage has bold black-and-white head and breast pattern; nonbreeding has subdued and browner pattern. In flight shows bold white wing stripe. Mellow whistled “poo-ee” call quite distinct from call of more slender and ‘spectacled’ Little Ringed Plover. Breeds on sandy and stony substrates from beaches and lakeshores to moorland above treeline. Winters coastally, where often roosts with other small waders such as Dunlin.
The spectacularly bizarre Andean Cock-of-the-rock is perhaps the most popularly recognized bird of the cloud forests of the Andes Mountains. The national bird of Peru, this species is readily identified by its fan-shaped crest and brilliant orange plumage, both of which are evident to a lesser degree even in the duller female. Males spend much of their time displaying at leks, where they jump up and down on particular branches and utter low, guttural croaks. The name is derived from their preference for rocks and ledges as substrates for their mud cup nests. Often difficult to detect away from leks, birds can sometimes be found feeding at fruiting trees. Distributed from Venezuela to Bolivia in the Andes, the Andean Cock-of-the-Rock does not co-occur with the similar Guianan Cock-of-the-rock of the Guianan Shield. birdsoftheworld.org/bow/species/andcot1/cur/introduction

There will be eight blossoms.
The first flower has faded.
The sun breaks above the horizon, illuminating the barren landscape of the Blue Hills, composed of eroded Mancos Shale. The area is often likened to the surface of the Moon or Mars- this viewpoint is called "Moonscape Overlook," and the Mars Desert Research Station is located nearby. The lack of vegetation is associated with the instability of the substrate, though a few scattered shrubs (including Mat Saltbush, Atriplex corrugata) and annual herbs (e.g. Brittle Phacelia, Phacelia demissa) can survive on these soils.

Acentronura breviperula, also known as the shortpouch pygmy pipehorse, dwarf pipehorse and northern little pipehorse, is a species of pygmy pipehorse, a member of the family Syngnathidae, the seahorses and pipefishes. It is a small, drab-coloured pipehorse which is very well camouflaged among sandy and silty habitats, although it is usually found on substrates of coral rubble or in areas of sparse algal growth. It has a prehensile tail similar to that of a seahorse but it lacks an angled head and swims with its body held in a horizontal position. (Wikipedia)

Die Haarbecherchen sind sehr kleine Pilze, nur ein wenig größer als Schleimpilze. Theoretisch könnte man sie das ganze Jahr finden, aber sie lieben eine kühl, feuchte Witterung. Deshalb sind die Monate Januar und Februar geeignet für die Suche nach ihnen. Stark zersetztes Totholz ist ihr bevorzugtes Substrat.
Haircup fungi are very small, only slightly larger than slime molds. Theoretically, they could be found year-round, but they prefer cool, damp weather. Therefore, January and February are ideal months for searching for them. Highly decomposed dead wood is their preferred substrate.
