An Intermountain Power coal train loads at the Andelex Rosources, Inc. facility on the Utah Railway at Wildcat, Utah (west of Helper) on Sept. 18, 2009. By 2013, Wildcat was expanded to include crude oil transloading from truck to rail, known as the AES Oil Loading Terminal.

The Scottish wildcat (Felis silvestris) is one of our most elusive carnivores and the only native member of the cat family still found in the wild in Britain.Scottish wildcats prefer to live on the woodland edge, in the margins of mountains and moorlands, with rough grazing. They generally avoid high mountain areas, exposed coasts and intensively farmed lowlands

Gestern war ich im Wildpark - immer eine gute Gelegenheit um etwas neues zu probieren. Hier hatte ich viel Glück, dass die Wildkatze recht nah saß und ich ein Bild mit dem Makro machen konnte. Der Hintergrund hatte dazu diese tollen pastellartigen Farben und so entstand letztendlich dieses eher ungewöhnliche Bild.

 

I've been to the wildlife park yesterday. It is always a nice way to try out something new. This wildcat here sat nice and close so I had to use my macro lens. The background had those nice pastel like colors and that is how I was able to get this picture.

Back in the late 1950's and early '60's, orchid breeders were fascinated by the complex Oncidae

alliances that they could create. Many were crosses of warm and cool growing varieties in the hope that they could be induced to grow in a broader range of conditions.

 

One such inter generic cross was the merging of Oncidium, Miltonopsis, and Odontoglossum. The cross was named Colmanara after the famous English breeder, Sir Jeremiah Coleman.

In 1992, Rod McLellan registered his cross of Ons. Rustic Bridge X Onc. Crownborough and named it Colm. Wildcat.

 

Like most other Colmanara's, Wildcat is a cool to intermediate grower. Wintertime lows can

comfortably reach 55-60 degrees. Summer daytime highs should be kept below 80-85 degrees F. These conditions can be met even in West Central Florida if you grow them in bright shade and high humidity with good air movement.

 

Wildcat is a complex cross, made up of seven or eight species. Colors of the parents cover the

spectrum from crisp clear yellows, browns, mahogany, and ranging through heavy waxy maroons and reds. -Wikipedia

  

For you knowledge: This is a non-wild Wildcat.

This picture is no wildlife.

 

It was taken in the animal / wild park Bad Mergentheim. www.wildtierpark.de

 

Of course this is no real hunt - it is a simulator only that the wildcat has to get its bag.

 

Most of you know that I'm not taking wildlife pictures in Europe, only zoo and parks but better saying to avoid misunderstanding.

 

If there is anyone out there who catched this in wildlife - let me know ;)

Not quite spring yet in northern Illinois. A bit of water at Starved Rock State Park.

The desire for freedom and life (Der Wunsch nach Freiheit und Leben)

Named "Callie" by the Saving Wildcats project, she is one of many Scottish Wildcats bred and released into the Cairngorms National Park.

 

She was initially tracked and has had successful litters since her release. She now frequents the Glenmore area, including the Reindeer Centre where she hunts the ducks that steal the reindeer feed - which is where I saw her.

 

It really was quite something to witness this up close and such a great project restoring the presence of these cats in the Scottish Highlands.

The female wildcat was posing well on this log!

The fall colors are just beginning to change here in eastern Iowa as seen on this road in Wildcat Den State Park.

Wildcat Creek Bridge was built in 1925 at Austa, near Walton, near OR 126. The 75-foot bridge carries Austa Road over Wildcat Creek near its confluence with the Siuslaw River. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

Another favourite photo that I took at The British Wildlife Centre a couple of weeks ago.

What is this kitten dreaming of? Just like a child it sucks on a twig and dreamily looks up to the sky

 

Wovon träumt dieses Kätzchen? Wie ein Kind nuckelt es an einem Zweig und blickt verträumt in den Himmel
