Numerous fire apparatus from Hamden, Connecticut responded to this three alarm blaze on Welton Street in 1970. I responded, too, with my Polaroid Land Camera J66 to grab this shot of the brave firefighter on a ladder.

Very small alarm which is on a key ring and fits in the palm of my hand.

An alarmed mother grizzly coveys her sense of danger to her rearing up yearling cub, Chilko River, British Columbia. The other cub is behind the mother in this shot and can't be seen. It was't obvious what had alarmed the mother, but it was upstream from us and grizzlies have a superb sense of smell (best larger to see the claws and dripping water)

Pink Footed Geese at Martin Mere Wetlands in Lancashire, alarmed by the presence of a Buzzard (at the top of the photo). Very Noisy! Best expanded.
Before I went to Central Asia, I had a long hike trip in my own country. I walked the "Pieterpad" (Pieter trail), that goes from north to south (or the other way around) and is 500 kilometers. I did this with a backpack, and during this time I slept in a small tent. I had several reasons for going, one of them was to really immerse myself in spring bursting loose. And yes that it did.
It was not an easy trip though. After 4 days in which I did 80 kilometers, I cursed myself, and the thought of another 440 kilometers was not an attractive foresight.
Nights were cold, and with a just not warm enough sleeping bag, I had to put all clothes that i had on to keep a little warm.
But there were also numerous rewards. Here is one. This little barn swallow was building its nest in a barn, and here he/she sits still to warn its partner that there were strangers in the house!So despite the dark, I could make a sharp image with a long shutter time (for a tele).
If you have FB you can find the trail here. (more later)
The mountain moment; the call of the Pika (also known as the whistling hare) projects his high pitched sound - typically to sound the alarm but sometimes to communicate to other Pikas in the vicinity.
Lacey's expression when Sue ceased petting her for a moment. "What is this?! The human has dared to stop! We are not amused and may have to bite."

At the Alaska Raptor Center, dedicated to the rehabilitation of sick and injured raptors, a red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), called Jake, gives an alarm call. The distinctive loud, raspy, red-tail hawk alarm calls are used by Hollywood as 'generic' bird alarm calls. Sitka, Alaska.

California Ground Squirrel screamed
an alarm call and went on for a good half an hour. The cause of the alarm was people going into "its" field to harvest the plants. As we walked by, at least twenty squirrels ran from the field. This one took up a post on a dried plant and started to scream an alarm call. What interested me was how sharp its teeth were! I used a blue filter on the background because it blended so nicely with its surroundings and I wanted more of a contrast.
San Jose, California
A mother grizzly rears up in alarm at presence of a distant male grizzly, Chilko Lake, BC. Male grizzlies will kill unrelated cubs in order to bring females back into estrus so they can mate with them, so females with cubs are always on the lookout for male bears in the vicinity.

It's not usual to see all the beautiful cherry-coloured beaks of the parakeets showing at once. Normally they have them stuck in the feeder ports intent on eating as much sunflower seed as possible. But sometimes, there is a lookout bird who sits at the top of the tree. When a cat appears in the vicinity, it squawks it's loud alarm call and all the feeding parakeets look around. That's the moment to snap the shot.

I found half a dozen Canada Geese sleeping on the ice before sunrise. This goose decided shortly after the sun came up that it was time to rise and shine. Its partner ignored him/her for a little while and then succumbed to the racket and staggered sleepily out of bed. Siskiyou County, California
Humm? A proper title? Got a little bored waiting in a hotel lobby for a transfer bus. The clock isn't real, but at least it's correct twice a day.

Galápagos sea lion (Zalophus wollebaeki) & Galápagos lava lizard (Microlophus albemarlensis) - Rabida Island, Galapagos National Park, Ecuador
More than anything I like photographing natural interactions between individuals and species. Oftentimes when it comes to inter-species interactions these are events such as predation, however once in a while these brief moments take on a lighter tone. This was certainly the case of the lizard-sea lion rendezvous photographed here. This young sea lion had hauled himself up unto the beach and had only one thing on his mind which was to sleep. As he slept, flies were attracted to the moisture of his nose and eyes and flew in and perched on his head, the young lion didn't seem at all bothered. However, the flies attracted this hungry lizard as well who slowly crept in and got extremely close to the sleeping lion before leaping onto his head in order to capture the flies there. The lion unbothered by the presence of the flies on his head was obviously perturbed about the landing of this new larger visitor and shook him off sending the lizard flying through the air before moving around and attempting to go to sleep. However, the lizard didn't seem to mind and began its slow creep towards the sea lion once again, and again it pounced this time and again the sea lion reacted by shaking the lizard off. This repeated itself several times with the lizard successfully gorging itself on flies and the sea lion visibly frustrated at not being allowed his beauty sleep. Right before this photo was taken the lizard had stealthily crept up and snatched a fly off the tip of the lion's nose. The sea lion disturbed once again, gave the lizard, who had scrambled a short distance away, this sleepy look not so different to the one I give my alarm clock most mornings. After this the lizard must have decided it had eaten his fill and retired to a basking spot nearby, which was a shame as I could have kept photographing their interactions all day, especially as I hadn't been able to get a photo of the young sea lion shaking the lizard off yet.
