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.
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.

The volcano Antisana is 5700 meters high. It is a Stratovulkan and is located in the area of the eastern Cordilleras in Ecuador. The volcano is active, which is why clear, cold water and hot and mineral water are emerging from its rocks. In a side valley you can find the most beautiful thermal baths. Rarely has a clear mountain view. We were very lucky, because the glaciers of the Antisana appeared close to the sun.
The active region 3363, made up of nine sunspots at the time of this capture, has crossed the solar disk in recent days. This image corresponds to July 16, under conditions of great atmospheric turbulence (after many days of clouds and rain), the day it reached a size of 720 millionths of a hemisphere, which is equivalent to more than four times the size of the disk of the Land. The active region reached an even larger size around July 12 when it reached five terrestrial disks.
Sunspots are structures generated by the solar magnetic field. The darkest part (towards the center of the active region) is called the umbra, while the gray area that surrounds it is the penumbra. These are regions colder than the temperature of the photosphere.
These images are taken in white light, using my Maksutov-Cassegrain 127mm, f/15 telescope, Meade SF 575 Solar Filter, Player One Neptune-M Camera, and a Player One IR685 filter.

Norfolk & Western 1218 storms though the small settlement of Happy Creek, Virginia with an Alexandria – Front Royal excursion. Since the 611 ran here a few years back, no active steam has been here, and may never be. Perhaps it’s for the better, since some of the bushes have grown to obscure the scene.
The fruit, called a cacao pod, is ovoid, 15–30 cm (6–12 in) long and 8–10 cm (3–4 in) wide, ripening yellow to orange, and weighs about 500 g (1 lb) when ripe. The pod contains 20 to 60 seeds, usually called "beans", embedded in a white pulp.
The seeds are the main ingredient of chocolate, while the pulp is used in some countries to prepare refreshing juice, smoothies, jelly, and cream. Usually discarded until practices changed in the 21st century, the fermented pulp may be distilled into an alcoholic beverage. Each seed contains a significant amount of fat (40–50%) as cocoa butter.
The fruit's active constituent is the stimulant theobromine, a compound similar to caffeine.

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.

The blackbuck (Antilope cervicapra), also known as the Indian antelope, is an antelope native to India and Nepal. It inhabits grassy plains and lightly forested areas with perennial water sources. It stands up to 74 to 84 cm (29 to 33 in) high at the shoulder. Males weigh 20–57 kg (44–126 lb), with an average of 38 kg (84 lb). Females are lighter, weighing 20–33 kg (44–73 lb) or 27 kg (60 lb) on average. Males have 35–75 cm (14–30 in) long, ringed horns, though females may develop horns as well. The white fur on the chin and around the eyes is in sharp contrast with the black stripes on the face. The coats of males show a two-tone colouration; while the upper parts and outsides of the legs are dark brown to black, the underparts and the insides of the legs are white. Females and juveniles are yellowish fawn to tan. The blackbuck is the sole living member of the genus Antilope and was scientifically described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. Two subspecies are recognized. The antelope is native to and found mainly in India, while it is locally extinct in Pakistan and Bangladesh. Formerly widespread, only small, scattered herds are seen today, largely confined to protected areas. During the 20th century, blackbuck numbers declined sharply due to excessive hunting, deforestation, and habitat degradation. The blackbuck has been introduced in Argentina and the United States. In India, hunting of blackbuck is prohibited under Schedule I of the Wildlife Protection Act of 1972. The blackbuck has significance in Hinduism; Indian and Nepali villagers do not harm the antelope.

A trail leads up past a Sequoiadendron giganteum, commonly referred to as the giant sequoia, giant redwood, Sierra redwood, Sierran redwood). This particular tree grows in a small grove on Deer Creek in Great Sequoia National Monument which is part of Sequoia National Forest. Locals tell me that at one time there were more big trees on Deer Creek but most were logged. A small grove remains. I visited 2 trees there. i was told that there was a saw mill active on Deer Creek in the late1800s. Today a small picnic area can be found near the sequoias at the end of Deer Creek Mill road.
The giant sequoia survives as the sole living species in the genus Sequoiadendron, and one of three species of coniferous trees known as redwoods, classified in the family Cupressaceae in the subfamily Sequoioideae, together with Sequoia sempervirens (coast redwood) and Metasequoia glyptostroboides (dawn redwood). Giant sequoia specimens are the most massive trees on Earth. The common use of the name sequoia usually refers to Sequoiadendron giganteum, which occurs naturally only in groves on the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. The oldest known giant sequoia is 3,200–3,266 years old. The ones at Deer Creek are not as large as some and are probably a little younger.
Mountain hares have evolved to change colour from dappled shades of brown to white, keeping them camouflaged against the winter snow. They are at their most vulnerable when they are still young leverets and preyed upon by foxes, stoats, birds of prey and cats.
Most active in the evening and at night, mountain hares will rest in forms and scrapes during the day with their backs to the wind sheltered by rocks and heather.
With concerns of global warming reducing snowfall in parts of the UK, mountain hares may suffer from being exposed in the wrong-coloured pelage, or moult, if there is insufficient cover.
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.

New York & Greenwood Lake GP9 1267 returns to Passaic light from the NS interchange in Garfield, NJ. The crew makes their way slowly along Monroe Street shortly before crossing the Passaic RIver.
It is unlikely that this interesting line will see another revenue move. No active customers remain and the City of Passaic is making preparations for a riverfront park where the NYGL yard currently resides.

A lighthouse on a boat. This is the last one we used and it ended its active life in 1994. They were popular by radio pirats.
The next day the weather was better and after a good breakfast at the "Hotel Steel" we got to work fresh. We managed to get at least one good picture on the south side of the complex, but it is clear that we wanted more. After a double check by the Ochrona, we positioned ourselves near the oxygen station and waited there in the din of the huge facilities. Two Qarmet locomotives were active at the same time and posed for us: TEM2UM-907 was shunting scrap for the steel converter, while TEM1-1697 was moving into the plant. Under the bridge, i.e. below us, the Ochrona was active and checking the fence. We noticed very clearly that we were not welcome and went in search of another place.
