Female on the left and male on the right. The Bat Falcon (Falco rufigularis) is a small falcon that is widely distributed in humid lowland forests of the Neotropical region, from northern Mexico to northern Argentina, reaching elevations up to 1,500 m above sea level. The upperparts are predominantly bluish black, sometimes varying to bluish gray depending on the region. The throat is white, while the breast is marked with white-and-black bars, and the lower belly and thighs are a distinctive orange color. The cauré can be distinguished from the similar and sympatric (but much rarer) falcão-de-peito-laranja (Falco deiroleucus) by its smaller size, narrower white barring on the lower breast, more restricted orange on the upper breast, and more easily, by its distinctive vocalizations. This falcon’s flight is characterized by rapid and strong wingbeats, with agile turns and twists alternating with occasional glides. Its hunting method includes attacks launched from high, exposed perches to capture flying insects, birds, or bats. It is especially active during twilight hours and is not shy. The species nests in natural cavities of old trees or cliffs, but also in nest boxes, buildings and other human-made structures. The clutch size can vary between two and four eggs. The main threat to this species is deforestation.

The 900 block of N. McClean Street, on the east side of Bloomington's Franklin Square, has an interesting history in terms of Illinois politics. Of the four stately residences on this block, three were home to late 19th and early 20th century gubernatorial candidates: Joseph W. Fifer, who served one term as Illinois Governor from 1889 to 1893; Adlai Stevenson I, who served as Vice President of the United States under Grover Cleveland from 1893 to 1897, but then lost a close race for governor in 1908; and Frank H. Funk, who ran and lost as the Progressive "Bull Moose" Party candidate for Illinois Governor in 1912.
This post looks at the Queen Anne style Bates-Funk House which was built about 1891 for T. M. Dates, the superintendent of transportation for the Chicago and Alton Railroad Company. Frank H. Funk (1869-19, grandson of McLean County pioneer Isaac Funk, lived in the house from 1897 to 1924.
Frank Funk was born in Bloomington in 1869. He was a Yale graduate, managed over 2,000 acres of farmland, and also had an extensive political career. He was elected state senator to the Illinois General Assembly in 1909, and held that position until 1913. As previously noted, Funk ran for Illinois governor on the Bull Moose ticket in 1912 making him the third person living in the 900 block of N. McClean St. to be a party-nominated candidate for the Illinois governorship between 1888 and 1912. Frank Funk finished his political career as a Republican member of the U.S. House of Representative from 1921 to 1927. Funk died in Bloomington at the age of 71 in 1940.
The Bates-Funk House is a contributing property in Bloomington's Franklin Square Historic District, which is located northwest of downtown Bloomington. The Square is named in honor of Franklin Price, who was the mayor of Bloomington Mayor in 1856 when land for the Square was gifted to the city.
Franklin Square was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, and was designated a local historic district in 1979. The houses of Franklin Square were built in a variety of architectural styles from the mid 19th century through the early 20th century, including Georgian Revival, Italianate, Colonial, Queen Anne, and Richardsonian Romanesque.
Bloomington is the seat of McLean County. It is adjacent to Normal, and is the more populous of the two principal municipalities of the Bloomington-Normal metropolitan area. Bloomington is 135 miles (217 km) southwest of Chicago, and 162 miles (261 km) northeast of St. Louis. The estimated population of Bloomington in 2019 was 77,330, with a metro population of 191,067.
The Bat Falcon is a widespread small falcon of forest and clearings in the Neotropics. It occurs from Mexico south to northwestern Peru and, east of the Andes, northern Argentina. It is dark slate gray above, with an obvious white throat, black-and-white barred breast, and orange lower belly and thighs. Bat Falcons can be distinguished from the similar and sympatric (but much rarer) Orange-breasted Falcon (Falco deiroleucus) by their smaller size, more compact structure, narrower white barring on the lower breast, and more restricted orange on the upper breast. Bat Falcons generally hunt around dawn and dusk at forest edge or over the canopy, often along rivers or road cuts, or at the edges of small crop fields. As the name implies, they feed on bats, but also prey on birds and insects (mostly aerial). They nest in adopted cavities, on cliffs, or on man-made structures and defend their territory aggressively. doi.org/10.2173/bow.batfal1.01

Every evening thousands of bats fly out of Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico's main entrance at or near sunset. One of those amazing wildlife experiences. They continue to exit the cavern for 1 to 2 hours.
Happy Halloween!

With recent rumours about the future fete of this beautiful 747-SP this photo shows 'BAT' just moments before a big rainstorm taxing back to its hangar after arriving late one Sunday afternoon. Photo taken at Bournemouth Hurn International Airport (BOH/EGHH) on the 15th February 2015.
One of the most unusual flowers we saw on our recent visit to Kauai. The bat flower (Tacca chantrieri) is native to southeastern Asia, but thrives in Hawaii's tropical climate. It may be grown as a houseplant in colder climates.
Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry if I'm a bit behind in commenting for the next few weeks but baby bat season has now started 😊
These two plus the other three that decided the roost was too hot and needed some fresh air were all safely returned to their mothers.We stayed and monitored the roost until the day had cooled down and had no more fell out.Had no more calls so hopefully now the temperature is lower they will stay away from the entrance 😉
Fruit Bat Falls, located in Australia's Apudthama National Park on the Cape York Peninsula, is named for the distinctive wing-like shape of the rock formation over which the water flows. The falls have no known "fall" in the historical sense, but have been a popular and well-regarded natural attraction for travelers and 4WD adventurers for decades, offering safe, croc-free swimming.

Each morning we were in Samburu, these guys could be relied upon to be soaking up the early morning sunlight outside their self-dug den.

Another photo from this afternoon on the BN, though this time it's the locomotives that are trash, rather than the freight being pulled by them. (G BOTKAL9 20H)
She flutters her lashes, slow and sly,
a teasing spark in her bright young eye.
A mischievous smile she doesn’t quite hide,
like she knows the effect
and enjoys the ride 😉

Spotted this guy out in the midday sun constantly diving and drinking from a small pond. Unfortunately it wasn't long before a Magpie also spotted it. RIP Long Eared Bat.

Les ruines d'un château médiéval du XIIè siècle sont visibles à l'entrée du parc mais ce château fut construit au XVè siècle et remanié par la suite et notamment par le comte de Béarn, propriétaire du château au XIXè siècle. Il est aujourd'hui la propriété du Département de la Seine-Maritime.

A leaf which has seen Better Days, on a walkway in Hermann Park, The shadow is a selfie, which normally I would avoid, but I really needed to catch this in a few seconds, on the run at the end of a beautiful day. In fact on one of my Better Days!
Yet another instance of a Barnett Newman Zip coupled with botanical jetsam &/or a topological equivalent of a disc—probably not the first reading that popped into your mind.
For #BetterDays #FlickrFriday and also “Signs of the Season” for the Flickr Lounge. Unaccountably refused to upload—even after export to jpg—so I’m posting a screen dump instead with time and location corrected to the original. The geotag shifted by a few meters in the process.
Happy Flickr Friday!
