Osprey emerged empty-taloned after a dive on the very foggy late afternoon... @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve

The patience pays off... some times. After a number of days and an untold number of hours of waiting for the action... finally, it happened. The resident osprey flew back to his favorite perch on the top of "the osprey tree" with the fresh catch of the day: spotted bay bass @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve

A rare display of the pair of ospreys figuring things out midair... territorial dispute most likely... :-) @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve

The elegant tern emerges after the fish dive with a tiny silverside topsmelt in her beak. The late afternoon light throws a shadow of the fish in the beak on the tern's wing... @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve.

There appeared to be a runaway hiding in the park when I went for a walk, of course he thought he was well hidden behind the tree as he watched me pass by, I guess he had not looked in a mirror to see his flaming red comb against the green grass was not cammo.

My hamster Chi-Chi, safe in her ball house and Lu-Lu the cat are watching what??? LoL,.. what could the three amigos be thinking?

An osprey was balancing on the stick trying to find a more stable position... I thought :-)

Looks like courting food exchange between two black skimmers... :-) @ Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve

Just a few images of interesting characters we have met throughout our trips from home. Some quite magnificent and others not so much. A few disreputable elements and ones you wouldn’t turn your back on.

Last #macromondays theme has been animals. As some of you might know....i am usually attempting severall ideas before i finalize which one goes into this fantastic marco group.

 

As for the last theme i also imaged the catwalk in front of an pretty old manual camera.

 

Size of the cats must be around 28-30mm aprox.

 

A catwalk, or runway, is a long, narrow stage used in the fashion industry for models to showcase clothing and accessories during a fashion show. Designers and brands utilize the catwalk as a platform to present their latest collections to audiences that often include fashion industry professionals, celebrities, and the media. Here are some defining features and descriptions:

 

Physical Structure: A typical catwalk is elevated from the ground, allowing the audience to have an unobstructed view of the models and the clothing they are wearing.

 

Setting: Catwalks can be found in various settings – from grand ballrooms and elaborate outdoor stages to more intimate settings. The backdrop, lighting, and music are carefully curated to reflect the theme or mood of the collection being presented.

 

Purpose: The primary purpose of the catwalk is to display clothing in motion, giving potential buyers and the audience a chance to see how clothes fit, drape, and move on the body.

 

Fashion Week: Catwalk shows are a significant component of major fashion weeks around the world, including those in cities like Paris, Milan, New York, and London.

 

Models: Models trained in runway walking are the main participants, and they walk down the catwalk one after the other, striking poses to best showcase the garments.

 

Audience: Seating or standing areas are arranged on either side of the runway for attendees. Front-row seats are often reserved for high-profile guests, including celebrities, fashion editors, and influencers.

 

Finale: Most fashion shows conclude with a finale, where all the models walk down the runway one last time, often followed by the appearance of the designer or the creative team behind the collection.

Came across this chattering little chipmunk hiding up in the leaves and so I had to quietly and quickly get out my camera and get the shot... we chattered back and forth and this little fellah, all of a sudden noticed I was still and staring at him... he became still and stared right back! Gotcha! Lol, so cute!
