Our little backyard lorikeet friend was giving me fair warning that he didn't like that zoom lens pointed at him and he was about take off. I'm glad he stayed around for just a few more seconds.

We have heard such ugly divisive language coming from Trump, it has been this way since his 2016 campaign. He loves the game of campaigning but being a leader that unifies does not seem to be within him. I wish I could understand how people support him because it boggles my mind.
In an escalation of his temper tantrum, an African elephant (Loxodonta africana) in musth flaps his ears, stomps his feet and blows a huge cloud of dust and dirt, Mabula, South Africa.

Widespread warnings are in place across the UK as Storm Isha brings rain and gusts of wind of up to 80mph (128km/h).
Isha has prompted amber weather warnings for wind in much of England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland from 18:00 GMT. Yellow rain warnings are also in place in most areas.
The storm's strongest winds aren't due until this evening and tomorrow morning.
The Met Office says it's "relatively rare" for the whole of the country to be affected by storm warnings in this way.
People have been warned there's a good chance of power cuts, which could affect services such as mobile phone coverage. There is also a risk to life in coastal areas from large waves and debris being blown inland.
Storm Isha is the ninth named storm since September, and follows on from Storm Henk earlier this month.
A good day to stay indoors.
The St. Joseph River is still now, but the effects of strong winds are seen on the railings of the North Pier.

Exiting Morro Bay harbor, this sign has warned outbound sailors for generations. Unchanged since my childhood in the 70s, but it’s probably much older than that.
Le ciel nous avertit !

This sign is adorning the private parking lot of a building in |yallup (more commonly known as Puyallup), in Washington State. I don't know whether it was the intent of the building owner to provide us with a riddle in addition to putting us on notice, or whether this sign and its similarly abbreviated twin has been visited by a demon barber with a chain saw, but it certainly is attention getting. Maybe the warning is so familiar to us all by now that the warners just need to "hum a few bars" and we'll all quickly sing the whole tune.
A helpful and considerate cautionary note for people new to the Sonoran desert environment that they should carry water with them. This is a result of the high number of emergency calls due to dehydration in the canyon each year.

Storm Warnings
The glass has been falling all the afternoon,
And knowing better than the instrument
What winds are walking overhead, what zone
Of grey unrest is moving across the land,
I leave the book upon a pillowed chair
And walk from window to closed window, watching
Boughs strain against the sky
And think again, as often when the air
Moves inward toward a silent core of waiting,
How with a single purpose time has traveled
By secret currents of the undiscerned
Into this polar realm. Weather abroad
And weather in the heart alike come on
Regardless of prediction.
Between foreseeing and averting change
Lies all the mastery of elements
Which clocks and weatherglasses cannot alter.
Time in the hand is not control of time,
Nor shattered fragments of an instrument
A proof against the wind; the wind will rise,
We can only close the shutters.
I draw the curtains as the sky goes black
And set a match to candles sheathed in glass
Against the keyhole draught, the insistent whine
Of weather through the unsealed aperture.
This is our sole defense against the season;
These are the things we have learned to do
Who live in troubled regions.
