Saw this Monarch (Danaus plexippus) butterfly in the backyard this morning whilst awaiting the birds.
Pine warblers are common summer residents here in South Jersey, usually arriving in late March. I say "usually" because this male was spotted at my suet-feeder on March 2, weeks earlier than I've ever seen one. And a second Pine Warbler showed up just a week later!
It is said, “Canadian contributes the Banff and Jasper National Parks to the world, but keeps the Kananaskis park for themselves”. Kananaskis park is a provincial park, not as famous as Banff and Jasper. But there is comparable Rocky Mountains and lakes. It is a very quiet place, no people around, nice trails to walk around the lakes and mountains, really enjoyed the most at this peaceful and quiet place! The photo was taken on the backyards of the camping sites. The walks were great with awesome views of the lakes from the back of camping sites.
BACKyards Series
Often the facades are maintained and the care erases the soul and the history of the houses and their inhabitants.. maybe the truth lives in the back yards?
A Coopers Hawk that has been visiting my yard. He dove into the cedar tree and scattered all the little wee birds hiding in there, he didn't catch any this time but we have found feathers in recent days.
From a hilltop in the beautiful town of Bergen, Norway. It’s always fun to catch a glimpse of what’s behind all the quaint homes...

One of the most numerous wading birds in Florida, and common elsewhere in the southeast. Highly sociable at all seasons, roosting and feeding in flocks, nesting in large colonies. When groups wade through shallows, probing with their long bills, other wading birds such as egrets may follow them to catch prey stirred up by the ibises.
The white ibis about 2 feet tall and has a wingspan of about 3 feet. It is entirely white, except for its black-edged wings. Its blacked tipped wings may not be noticeable when the ibis is at rest, but they are easily seen when the ibis is in flight. It has a long, down-curved, reddish-orange bill and a reddish-orange face. It legs are long and gray, except for during breeding season when they turn reddish-orange. Young white ibis are brown on their upper sides and white on their undersides and they have brown bills and legs.
The white ibis lives in a variety of coastal freshwater, saltwater and brackish marshes, rice fields, mudflats, mangrove swamps and lagoons.
Found this one on my dock, in my backyard. Polk County, Florida.

'The Australian Backyard', lol.
Photographed today in the late afternoon.

Mid-winter, Sydney.
An outdoor entertaining area that I discovered today in Millers Point. I was on my way, after work, to photograph the bridge from Sydney Observatory Park, but that did not turn out because there were zillions of people there (school holidays, of-course, I should have realised). So, instead, I explored some laneways around Millers Point. This quaint setting was at the end of one of them!!

The Eagles have been back again and they ventured to our backyard for a couple days. My husband removed one of the back screens and it gave us a great view to capture them. My husband got some great shots of them both while sadly I was at work.
Thank you friends for all the views and encouraging comments throughout the year and I wish you a joy filled Christmas.
Happy Wing Wednesday!
