I'd definitely go back to Back Beach, which forms part of the Paritutu Centennial Park on the outskirts of New Plymouth, New Zealand. It was blowing a gale on this evening, making it tough to keep the camera steady and the lens clear of sea spray! Loads of interesting rock formations, especially at low tide.
About the length and diameter of the first two bones in your little finger, a tiny Snowberry Clearwing Moth backs out of a Bee Balm floret after sampling its sweet nectar. These creatures are amazing as they go about their business with stealth and precision. And... they fly FAST.
Tired of dancing at night, perhaps elves nestle in the heather blossoms and admire the foggy sunrise already half asleep.
Vom nächtlichen Tanzen müde, schmiegen sich vielleicht Elfen in die Heidenblüten und bewundern schon halb eingeschlafen den nebligen Sonnenaufgang.

Palouse, can’t wait to go back, these fields pinpointed by farmhouses and barns enveloped in that mood of peacefulness, nostalgia and a bit of loneliness.

Subalpine fir (native to high altitudes)
With floods on the way, I dived back to my first digital camera and a hike in Alaska. I shot a number of these. About as shot.
We don't have to evacuate, but some roads are closing. The emergency text system worked well last night. Stay safe, everyone, from omicron, floodwaters, and other dangers.

Icterus chrysater
(Yellow-backed Oriole / Turpial Montañero)
The Yellow-backed Oriole is well-named, as it is one of the very few species of orioles with a yellow back. Indeed, this oriole shows only two colors, yellow and black: the wings are entirely black, the feathers lacking the white or yellow feather margins that are shown by most other species of oriole.
The Yellow-backed Oriole has an oddly discontinuous distribution: it occurs from southern Mexico south to northeastern Nicaragua, and again from Panama south to northern Colombia and Venezuela, but is absent from Costa Rica and from most of Nicaragua. This oriole has a very broad elevational range, ranging up to 2500 m in Central America and almost to 2700 m in Colombia.

Image of two aggressive AMERICAN TREE SPARROWS. (#100)
Interesting facts: Avg size is 6" (14cm).A frequent backyard feeder visitor. During the summer, the American Tree Sparrow eats nearly 100% animal matter (mostly insects). In the winter it eats none, turning then to eating entirely seeds and other plant foods. (All About Birds)
I wasn't going to upload another shot from that flowery set, but as I had some time to kill, I started playing around with them and ended up with this one... I loved how it turned out and thought I'd share ;D
Big smiles everyone :)))
Elephant Seal Pup
San Simeon
California
Although most of the elephant seal pups are out in the water learning to swim, there were some moms and pups on the beaches at the Piiedras Blancas Rookery.
Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all. Take care and stay safe!

Back to Black
Song by Amy Winehouse:
He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed
From all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
I go back to us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny
Rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
Black, black
Black, black
Black, black
Black
I go back to
I go back to

Well, not back as such, I never left! Do you take play shots waiting for the light? Well, this is mine. Can you imagine how excited I was? And then the clouds rolled in snuffing out any hint of dawn colour. As the sun rose behind the wall of cloud, the inversion dissipated leaving not scrap of mist 😆
Crap, noisy high ISO shot (to keep the definition in the cloud). How I wish I'd taken an LE and blended! Ah well, you live and learn. Still an absolutely brilliant day charging around the fells.
*** Edit: Swapped noisy for smeary. The noisy version is here (not like you care but for my own records 😁):
