Black-backed Puffback has one of the more distinctive of the bird calls heard when visiting subtropical or tropical dry forests and dry savanna areas of Southern-Africa. An interesting fact is that the scientific binomial for the Black-backed puffback is Dryoscopus cubla; Dryoscopus from the Greek for “a watcher from the trees” and cubla which derives from a Hottentot word of obscure meaning, but the word is pronounced with an initial click that is said to imitate the bird’s distinctive call.
They feed mainly on insects, but also on fruit, and do most of their feeding in the upper canopy where they glean insects from leaves and branches.

the osprey are nesting in the same nest again now so I'm excited. I will go back periodically and check on them and take photos. And thankfully now, I won't be lugging a toddler size lens and a tripod. Yah!!! I love this much smaller size and lighter weight equipment!
I go see my ortho doc this morning and hopefully won't have to wear my cast anymore. Things are healing well. Let's hope that's what the ex-ray will show. I'll catch up with you all later! ❤️

I was looking for another post card and found this one. Mailed in 46 from a young man of 16 that went on the road as help for a carnival. Mailed from Colorado to family back in Arkansas. One of the articles I thought was lost in the flood but it survived, how much longer will this get past through family lineages. There was no way of knowing that when this was mailed that one day it would be subject to world wide view. Smile on Saturday - Postcards & Greeting Cards.

hörschbachschlucht near to murrhardt (swabian forest, germany). On the top of the waterfall there is a pool and with a small flap you can trigger the waterfall. The waterfall ist about 12m high. thanks vor my buddy max for the idea and nice trip.
The back entrance to the compartment of an old Benedictine monastery. Who has already come in and gone out here? Who wants to know that! Curiosity? The monastery dates from the 12th century. In the meantime, however, it has been destroyed, changed and rebuilt. The current abbey is said to date essentially from the 18th century.
A surprise encounter on a recent trip up to the Sierra’s. I was busy shooting some landscapes when I saw this guy leave this cavity. Grabbed my big lens and got some great shots of both the male and female. This guy completed my California woodpecker list.
der himmel über berlin war öfters blau und manchmal grau... es war schön berlin wieder neu zu entdecken, es hat sich auch einiges seit meinen letzten besuch vor über 10 jahren geändert...
.. Berlin where I got a lot to discover since my last visit 10 years ago :)
This Red-backed Shrike was photographed in the wild in the Kruger National Park.
(What is most interesting about this image, is that I used the 2x MIII converter on a R6. For the first time, I now am able to use that converted with confidence, as I always seemed to get not that sharp images on the DSLR's. I guess, for 1000mm, this turned out acceptably sharp.)
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.
