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.
An abstract image representing the warning from rising seas, changing weather patterns and rising temperatures, created from two images of our beautiful natural world before we totally destroy it.

Brickworks, Toronto, Canada.
This year we had a very warm and long fall. Leaves and colors still hang around and there is no sign of early winter. Thankfully.
I decided to visit a little enclave of nature in the old quarry. Ducks frequent it and there are few resident beavers chomping happily at the nearby trees. But this morning was chilly and fog laid low over the meadow. A warning: enjoy the last moments of the warm weather. Inevitable cold is coming.

This Sweet Grass to Great Falls H-train was about the only thing happening in this lonely area of the state as they hustle through an S-curve between Kevin and Sunburst on the Sweet Grass sub. In the back are the Sweet Grass Hills, a prominent landmark in the prairie landscape, and can be seen for miles in all directions.
I suggest we
Learn to love ourselves,
Before its made illegal
When will we learn, When will we change?
Just in time to see it all come down
Those left standing will make millions
Writing books on ways it should have been
Floating in this cosmic Jacuzzi
Here we are like frogs oblivious
To the water starting to boil,
No one flinches and we all float face down...
She woke in the morning.
She knew that her life had passed her by
She called out a warning.
Don't ever let life pass you by.

This stag was bellowing to warn off potential rivals from trying to take his harem. He had previously fought off a challenger who turned and fled rather than risk injury. There were other young pretenders in the vicinity so he couldn't rest.
The weather turned nasty this afternoon. While I normally post images of the beauty of nature there are times when Mother Nature gets ugly. This tornado past within a mile of my backdoor. No damage for us.

I see the bad moon a-risin'
I see trouble on the way
I see earthquakes and lightnin'
I see bad times today
Don't go around tonight
Well it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
I hear hurricanes a-blowin'
I know the end is comin' soon
I fear rivers over flowin'
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Don't go around tonight
Well it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise, alright
Hope you got your things together
Hope you are quite prepared to die
Looks like we're in for nasty weather
One eye is taken for an eye
Well don't go around tonight
Well it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Don't come around tonight
Well it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
Bad Moon Rising
Song by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Imagine sunrise in the Okavango Delta, leaving the enchanting Jacana Camp in a small boat, still almost dark, floating through a small path through the whispering reeds and waterlilies.
All of a sudden a enormous splash next to the boat and the ranger whispers "Hippo.. big one!". The very next second the water is calm again, but you know the big animal is somewhere under the surface . Your heart starts racing and you can't help holding your breath. Where will it emerge!
I went down as flat as I could, meanwhile adjusting the camera to the best I could, given the very poor lighting conditions. With the surface of the water covered in waterlily leaves I had no clue as to where it could be.
And then.... only 5 or 6 meters from the boat, about where my camera was aimed, his massive bulk jumped high out of the water with a heartstopping splash. I nearly jumped out of the boat, but not before I pressed that shutter-button! :-)
The result was this full-frame image. Certainly too close for comfort and almost too close for the lens, but I'm not complaining.
Needless to say that we took his warning seriously and left him in peace. But it sure took a while before my heart rate was back to normal.

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.
Le ciel nous avertit !

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.
