En tant que prédateur terrestre, le Héron garde-bœufs a un régime principalement insectivore. On le retrouve souvent en compagnie du bétail sur lequel il se perche. Il profite du dérangement causé par le bétail ou les machines agricoles pour capturer insectes et autres arthropodes, divers invertébrés autres ainsi que de petits vertébrés tels que mulots et musaraignes. Il lui arrive de chasser les pieds dans l'eau et les poissons peuvent alors entrer dans son régime
This common year-round resident of the deciduous and mixed forests of eastern North America is also found in older urban and suburban areas with mature trees and vegetation. The Tufted Titmouse's gray-crested head, rust-colored flanks, black forehead and large eyes make it easily identifiable, even for casual birders. It is a frequent visitor to bird feeders during fall and winter where individuals prefer sunflower seeds and suet, and often cache many of those seeds throughout their territories. This is an active bird, moving along branches, and often searching under them, for arthropods. It is also a vocal species, frequently uttering contact calls and chick-a-dee calls and, in spring and summer, singing its ‘peter-peter-peter' songs.
Tufted Titmice and chickadees are ‘nuclear' species, often joined in winter flocks by a variety of ‘satellite' species. As a ‘nuclear' species, titmice influence the paths that flocks follow, are aggressive mobbers of potential predators, and often take the lead during mobbing events. The calls that titmice utter when mobbing provide information about the presence of predators for heterospecifics as well as conspecifics
During the past 70 years, the range of this species has expanded northward into New England and southern Canada, with climatic warming likely the most important factor, but bird feeders also a factor. The northern distribution of titmice is likely limited by average minimum temperature rather than food availability.
I found this one in Lake Wales, Polk County, Florida.
Luna Moth, or American Moon Moth

Un argus bleu (serait-ce Polyommatus icarus ?). Col d'Aizac (643 m). Antraigues-sur-Volane, Ardèche (07).
One from the archives, because that stabilimentum is just cool. :)
I hope everyone's week is going well.

This common house sparrow usually feeds on seeds and grass shoots. But during the mating season, insects provide a necessary boost in dietary proteins. This one has caught some type of arthropod, probably a spider, among the grass seed heads. Female house sparrow (Passer domesticus).
