As normality descends on our household ( children return to school today) so I thought I’d go back to ‘normal’ on Flickr!
Hope you all have a good day and thanks for stopping
A Chesnut-backed Chickadee! The Chickadee landed on our dwarf pine tree waiting for a turn at our Suet feeder. We usually only see the CBCH during the Winter months.

Song
I'm finally trying to get back into the swing of things. Life here in the States has gone a little off the rails, and work has become much more demanding. Finding time to get out with the drone has been like searching for a needle in a haystack.
I was recently in St. Pete, Florida, on the Gulf Coast, and stopped at the Pinellas Bayway South Bridge to capture a few drone shots. It was one of those brutally hot Florida afternoons, and I was on my way to a business meeting, dressed in a suit.
I'm sure the locals were wondering why there was a guy in a business suit standing outside his Jeep, staring into the sky while flying a drone in the middle of the day. 😂
Sometimes you just have to take advantage of the opportunities when they present themselves. I hope you enjoy the photos, and I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone's amazing work again! ✌️😎
Pano view of the first sunrise we saw on our trip to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Friday offered the best sky of the weekend with some light clouds in the morning. This was my first trip to the Smokies and the views were everything I could have hoped for. It is truly a beautiful place and I cannot wait to get back there.
The four DL Alcos that have just dropped their train in Pocono and Cresco are closing in on Scranton with their return train. The set is crossing Roaring Brook River viewed from Davis trail, a neat way to finish the day.

@ Port Mann Bridge, Surrey
Last week, the New Port Mann Bridge opened to eastbound traffic.
At 65 meters wide, it's the world's widest long-span bridge according to the Guinness World Records.
The end of my walk, in the village of Studham, at the southern tip of Bedfordshire, nestling in a hollow south of Dunstable Downs surrounded by an extensive plateau. It was a warm day and the outside temperature gauge in the car read 25 degrees.
I had a nic lunch in 'The Red Lion' pub, sitting outside before the drive home.
. . . Skipper was allowed outside. Now all the cats are strictly indoor cats. Sometimes it makes me sad for them, but they do much better inside.
A well-endowed Bull Elk shows well why he is the King of his large harem.
As he guards his family, so did our Fathers over the years.
Happy Father's Day!

The reason people talk bad behind your back is because you have gone ahead of them; a good way to handle it is to keep your vision on your path ahead and pay no attention to the noise behind.
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
C-FHCM, a Boeing 737-8 MAX 8, on approach to runway 24R at Toronto Pearson International Airport at Mississauga, Ontario. It was arriving as WJA658 (WestJet Airlines Ltd.) from Calgary, Alberta.

The olive-backed euphonia is found in wet forests, tall second growth and adjacent bushy clearings. It primarily feeds on fruits and insects. Fruits such as berries, figs, and small fruits from trees. They also eat a variety of insects, including caterpillars, beetles, and spiders.

I have been travelling back and forth from Calgary, AB to Sechelt, BC. Where the climates are without question, supremely different. This seascape in Sechelt delivered some wicked evening lighting even with the absence of clouds. Tomorrow will see a post from Calgary that illustrates the season of winter remains present. Seascape vs Prairie/Mountain and there is a huge difference. One this photographer is enjoying.
Visiting Castelo de Vide in the excellent company of Jacinto Oliveira and Francisco Barroqueiro.
Exploring the back alleys inside the Castle walls of the beautiful Village of Castelo de Vide. Cheers everyone.

While visiting my daughter in Texas one of my Grandsons had a field trip to the Crocodile Encounter. My daughter and I decided to go and see what it was all about and try to catch a glimpse of my Grandson. We all had a fun time and the weather was fantastic. I even held a snake and a baby alligator! They had lots more animals then just Gators and Crocs!
Happy Fence Friday and hope you too have a laid back weekend!
Laid back, but not very easy going.
During the mating season, male coots will act aggressively towards other males to establish and/or protect a breeding area. One behaviour I've seen lots is running and flapping aggressively towards a rival at high speed. On rare occasion, I've seen them engage in a classic coot fight. I had never seen it up close.
As shown in the photo, they lay back in the water with their wings stretched out behind them. They will then spar with the legs, trying to get an advantage over the other coot. If they can, they will push themselves upright with their wings while pushing the other combatant underwater. Injury or worse is not unheard of.
There must have been something in the water on this day, as the fighting seemed to be constant amongst many different pairs. This behaviour is no longer a rare event for me to witness.
