A small attractive looking fly that can be seen in the UK from May to September around ponds and wet lands. The male certainly has to work hard to attract a female, the male will start of by doing wing waving and then hovering in front of the female followed an areal display by which the male will make a circle arc around one side of the area and then fly over the female rotating 180 degrees. Females much prefer to mate with larger males and if not interested in the male the female will terminate the courtship by flying away. Who said romance was dead.
This photograph was taken at Lower Seletar Reservoir, looking from the Heritage Bridge towards Orchid Country Club. It was a calm morning, with mirror-like reflections in the reservoir. A number of golden sun beams and attractive cloud-lets were reflected wonderfully in the reservoir..
Best wishes for the new week!

HOW DO I BECOME A CHRISTIAN?
Being a Christian is about a relationship with Jesus Christ, the only Son of the living God, who died in our place, to pay for our sin. He desires to welcome you into God's family here on earth and into heaven when you die.
To start this relationship, simply pray the prayer below, if you mean it, he'll respond, because the Bible says that God looks at our hearts.
"Dear God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness.
I believe that Jesus shed his precious blood and died for my sin.
I am willing to turn away from my sin.
I now invite Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Saviour.! "

This attractive hummingbird has pure white underparts. Also note bright red bill with black tip, purple crown, and dull brown back. Prefers riparian habitats, such as woodlands along rivers. Common in Mexico; only known from a few locations in U.S., but unmistakable in U.S. range. Visits hummingbird feeders. (eBird)

A summer visit to Arizona yielded punishingly hot and humid weather in Phoenix so we took a trip to Madera Canyon in the mountains for a couple of days. This side trip resulted in a number of summer birds, including this lovely hummingbird.
Madera Canyon, Arizona, USA. August 2018.
DAZZLINGLY ATTRACTIVE bird, put in a short feeding stop at Swalecliffe Kent, much to the sheer joy to me and all local birders. A handful breed in Scotland, and we only get to see them as a scarce passage migrant, on its way to Spain and Northern Africa. Now a have a permeate grin, so no need to go to sleep anymore with a metal clothes hanger bent up at the sides. lol.

THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND, it means a lot in these crazy difficult times. Please stay safe and well...........

"GODs BEAUTY is SIMPLY AMAZING !"
A colorful, attractive small bird commonly found in the Himalayan belt of India and much of Southern China and parts of South East Asia. The bird's colors are amazing and like a painting.
The birds are social creatures and always found in flocks. They are also quite shy and vary of the larger birds around. Magpies, Pheasants, Treepies and even a few Laughingthrushes made them dart off into the cover. I guess their small size means lot more precautions are needed.
Thank you so much in advance for your views, faves and feedback.

Fungi of beechwood: An attractively coloured fused triplet of the Yellowing Curtain Crust (Stereum subtomentosum). It is a tough thin crust fungus taken on the same tree branch as the one posted earlier (www.flickr.com/photos/sergeysmirnov/52566751811/). The Yellowing Curtain Crust stains yellow when cut or scratched, hence the common name. This one does that indeed. I have tested it by scratching the whitish underside edge on another day, so it is likely to be the Yellowings.
The underside of these Yellowing Curtain Crust fungi was yellow-ochre with faint concentric zones, but warty with shallow, hardly visible pores. This distinct them from more common Many-zoned polypore (Trametes versicolor) with white porous underside. The upper side of the Yellowing Curtain Crust with variable concentric zones is only slightly downy (also denoted in its generic name with the epithet from the Latin “sub - tomentosum” meaning ‘less than - hairy’) distinguishing it from the Hairy Curtain Crust (Stereum hirsutus). The green colour at the base is algae growth, a quite common feature on matured fungi. Lansdown, Bath, BANES, England, U.K.
Attractive dove endemic to Galápagos. Quite distinctive, with reddish-brown head and breast, blue circle around eye, red legs, and bold black-and-white markings on wings and head. Favors arid areas with abundant cacti; usually not found in towns. Largely terrestrial, but sometimes perches up on a bush or cactus. Usually shows little or no fear of people.

Attractive chunky hawk of marshes and wetlands. Usually seen perched quietly near water, waiting to swoop down and snatch fish or frogs. Adult is distinctive, with mostly orange plumage and a whitish head (black collar is often hard to see). Immature is brownish overall, duller than the adult, but with a similar pattern. Note rather pale, dull pinkish legs and feet (yellow or orange on most other hawks). In flight looks very broad winged and short tailed.
New River, Belize. January 2011.
I have used this location for two other photographs....so I do find something about it very interesting and attractive.

Attractive lighting concept of this building. Nice to think about us photographers. Inside, it doesn't get much more capitalistic than here.
Attractive, perky warbler found in humid lowlands and foothills of Central and northern South America. Favors dense understory in forest and edge. Usually in pairs or small groups which hop around low in brush. Rather stout-billed. Also note white eyebrow, rusty cap and cheeks, and yellow underparts. Listen for high-pitched sputtering song. Once considered conspecific with Rufous-capped Warbler.
Cerro Azul, Panama. January 2014.
The King's Head is an attractive, diminutive pub, just off the main shopping street of Stamford. The left hand side - where the small bar is situated - is more for vertical drinking, while the right hand side finds seating for about 25 people. An impressive wood burner kept things very toasty for those present on our bitterly cold Saturday night visit, while the above average choice of ales and wines provided suitable liquid refreshment. The decor is vaguely contemporary, but not unnecessarily so and the lighting made the place feel cosy. Stamford has a number of very good pubs, but the King's Arms can be assured of their place amongst them.

A daylily or day lily is a flowering plant in the genus Hemerocallis, a member of the family Asphodelaceae, subfamily
Hemerocallidoideae. Despite the common name, it is not in fact a lily. Gardening enthusiasts and horticulturists have long bred daylily species for their attractive flowers. Wikipedia

A pair of red-whiskered bulbul (pycnonotus jocosus) make an attractive couple in close proximity on this gnarled tree limb. Photographed in Trou D'Eau Douce, Mauritius.
The attractive orange foliage with red tips of this easy-care bromeliad is a perfect background for the brilliant, springtime flower stalk, which emerges from the tight center rosette of leaves. The flower stalk is composed of a cluster of red and yellow showy bracts. It is the long-lasting bracts that are most noticeable. They can be used as cut flowers indoors for a period of weeks.
