Active volcano Bromo - one of the most popular volcanoes in Indonesia. The crater Bromo is much easier to look, than other craters of volcanoes. Together with other calmer volcanoes fumed Bromo is a spectacular sight from the lookout on Mount Penandzhakan.
Bromo is an active volcano in Indonesia, part of the Tenger volcanic complex. Located in the east of Java. It has a height of 2392 meters. Bromo Volcano is a part of the Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park. The volcano has been in a state of constant activity for the last 20 years, its crater is filled with smoke from active fumaroles.
A beautiful barbet endemic to the Malabar region of India. This is a vast global biodiversity hotspot from the tip of South India and spans most of the western coast.
The barbet is spectacularly rich in colors and absolutely amazing to look at. These are endemic to the Malabar region. They are small birds, maybe about 11-13 cms and just like Coppersmith Barbets - another common barbet found much of India.
Shot this picture in a forest camp situated right in the middle of a very active area. This tree was right above our room and the nest is exactly on the underside of the branch below the birds tail (a small inverted hollow). The birds have nested almost a month in advance as per the highly experienced bird guide in that place. The chicks are out and the bird was actively getting food every 30 mins. Just like other birds, it would check the surroundings for prey before it gets into the nest.
This was shot around noon when the bird was most active, so the light was a bit harsh.
Thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.
A Great Blue Heron delivers another stick to the nest!
There are at least a dozen active heron nests at the GB heron rookery, and I counted 16 herons perched on or near their nests.
With a brood to feed this male great spotted woodpecker was very active looking for food after several heavy downpours a week or 2 at the most and the young will never be giving him a moments peace.

So glad they're back in the same roosting tree like last year. Unfortunately they tend to get active quite late so long exposure and high ISO are needed. Bavaria, Germany

I would like to take the opportunity to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas. I am GRATEFUL to all of you for your constant uplifting support and huge encouragement that you have given me. I so much appreciate you all.
As you all probably have noticed, I haven't been very active here on Flickr the past year and even less the past 6 months, and I haven't shared many Pictures in 2024.
My focus has been more or less in my RL. I have take up doing pictures in RL when ever I am out hiking or just walking.
Some of those pictures I have even shared with you here on Flickr, I have wanted to give you all some glimpse of my RL.
It has been a very hard year for me in RL, but also a very exciting and fulfilling year for me personally, in so many ways, but please, no worries, everything is alright with me, and things are looking brighter, and definitely going the way I want it to.
I can't wait to start the new year and I hope that I will find back to the inspiration of doing SL pictures as well as be more active on Flickr and hopefully I will be sharing more SL pictures in the new year.
I will most probably reopen all of my Flickr groups in the beginning of January 2025 as well, I am looking forward to that.
Thank you so much to each and every one of you for all your positive feedback on my work trough out the years and this past year as well. I am grateful.
Merry Christmas, and I wish you all a very happy New Year.
May 2025 be a wonderful year.
💖Especially with everything going on in the world these days, please take good care of your self as well as one another, we know nothing about what others are going trough, so therefor always be kind as well as thoughtful towards others. 💖
💖 Huge, huge hugs, light, peace and love to you all 💖.
Best regards

Dante wrote the Comedy out of the one compulsion, that is, simply for truth’s sake – for truth’s sake you write theology because there is something that needs saying that calls for it, and you write poetry because that is the only way truthfully to say it.

Smile on Saturday: Anything with A
The Southern Meat Ant (Iridomyrmex purpureus) is endemic to Australia. It was described by British entomologist Frederick Smith in 1858. It is among the best-known species of ant found throughout mainland Australia. Its enormous distribution, aggression and ecological importance have made this ant a dominant species. It is characterised by its dark-bluish body and red head. It is a medium to large species; workers and males are approximately the same sizes at 6–7 mm and 8 mm, respectively. The queens are the largest and appear mostly black, measuring 12.7 mm. The iridescence in workers ranges from green or blue to plain green and purple, varying in different body parts and castes. Meat ants inhabit open and warm areas in large, oval-shaped mounds that are accompanied by many entrance holes. The nest area is always cleared of vegetation and covered with materials including gravel, pebbles and dead vegetation. They are also polydomous, where a colony may be established in a series of satellite nests connected by well-defined paths and trails. Satellite nests are constructed away from the main nest and nearby areas with valuable food sources so workers can exploit them.
Queens mate with a single male and colonies may have more than one queen until the workers arrive, where they both exhibit antagonism. It takes around one or two months for an individual egg to develop into an adult. Colonies range in size, varying between 11,000 individuals to over 300,000. The meat ant is a diurnal species (active throughout most of the day), especially when it is warm. It forages on trees and collects sweet substances such as honeydew and nectar, and also captures insects or collects the remains of animals. A number of predators eat these ants, including the short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus), numerous species of birds, blind snakes and spiders. Meat ants establish territorial borders with neighbouring colonies and solve disputes through ritualised fighting.
Meat ants play an important role in both the environment and for humans. A single nest is capable of dispersing over 300,000 plant seeds; moreover, meat ants have formed symbiotic relationships with many insects. This ant may be used as a form of pest control to kill the cane toad, an invasive species. They can also help farmers to remove animal carcasses by consuming and reducing them to bones in a matter of weeks.

Out this moring at sunrise to photography the Osprey activity. Had to wait a couple of hours as there was a heavy fog this Saturday moring. But once the fog lifted and the blue skies appeared the Ospreys were active like these two were on the grounds of Fort Pickens on the West end of Pensacola Beach Florida. For the shots today I used the Sony A9 with the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS lens. Be safe!

Late summer and autumn dragonflies include: darters, the Migrant Hawker and Southern Hawker. Some of our commonly seen dragonflies are active in areas not only near water, but also around woodland, grasslands and gardens. This male Migrant Hawker was seen this afternoon along a wooded track, but not far from a small pond.
The coal tit is a small tit of coniferous woodland, although it can be found in parks and gardens where there are conifer trees. It nests in holes in trees, but is just as happy to use nestboxes. Coal tits are active feeders, hunting out insects and spiders among the smaller branches and leaves of trees in woolands. But they are also well-adapted to gardens and towns and will visit birdtables and feeders. In winter, they form flocks with other tits, roaming woodlands and gardens. They have a song of repeated phrases that are similar to those of great tits, but sound thinner and more high-pitched, like bicycle pumps.
The coal tit is grey above and buff below, with white cheeks, a black cap and a white neck patch. It can be distinguished from the similar marsh tit and willow tit by its white wingbars and the white patch at the back of its head; marsh and willow tits have plain wings and entirely black caps.
umm, maybe better cut down on the FC&D#40 dye............
Thanks David Kracht, flickr and new owners SmugMug -- might as well give these new guys a chance.
probably last of hummer images for a while, as of Winter solstice they finally have left town around here ( it seems ).
Updated --- I repented and no longer use this "oh-so fun" dye in my food.....

Big Sur, California
A rocky section of the Pacific coast, typical of the Big Sur coast.
When an ocean’s coast coincides with active tectonic plate boundaries, you get what the geologists call an active margin. Rocky shores and coastal mountain ranges such as found along the Pacific Coast are the usual result. Long sandy beaches are a relative rarity along such coasts and are more commonly found along passive margins such as the Atlantic coast of North America.
