I was out taking macros of roses yesterday, and happened to notice a small bit of movement on the fence. Turned out to be 2 anoles fighting. Needless to say, I stopped taking flower pics and took lizard pics for about 15 mins while they fought. I got some really good ones.
Hope you like it. (I will likely share more)

Canadian National local train No. 513 passes a mountain lake at Henry House, Alberta, at 8:29 p.m. on July 11, 2014. The Hinton to Jasper (and return) local is powered by vintage pair of aging GMD’s—SD40-2W No. 5246 and SD40u No. 6011 —battle-worn, but still hauling plenty of tonnage on CN’s main line through scenic Jasper National Park.
Montana Rail Link’s LM thunders upgrade behind eight, 20-cylinder locomotives. I only wish I had video and sound on some of the sights west of Livingston, Montana, on this bright day of September 23, 2002.
With the rut underway, this buck shows some evidence of his battles, with the one antler tine snapped off and another short tine looking broken.

I listened to this song www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFyCSDzn2Q0 on my iPhone while riding Pete yesterday and my day was better
I spotted this battle between a wasp and a hoverfly in my garden yesterday - the wasp won. Wasps are just as important pollinators as bees and hoverflies, so please no calls for death to all wasps - HSS!

Last week we had some nice low fog in the fields near my house. I shoot this early one morning as the sun was coming up. Hope you all had a great weekend. We have had company here for a couple weeks now and hopefully things will return to a more normal schedule soon!! If you look really hard in the distance you can see Mount Hood.
Cheers

Battle Abbey is a partially ruined Benedictine abbey in the town of Battle. The abbey was built around 1095 under the order of King William the Conqueror, it situated close to the site of the Battle of Hastings.
The abbey was disestablished in 1538 during the reformation, it is now in the care of English Heritage.
New Holland Honeyeater (Phylidonyris novaehollandiae)
It is that time of the year when the Honeyeaters and Wattlebirds are vying for nesting locations in our garden. This one was watching the battle for one particular spot from the line that brings the power into our house.
Within the old Lodgings building this wall spoke to me - the different colours, shapes, the chips and marks on each stone, and within a wall that's over 500 years old.

This red admiral was on high alert today, chasing away all invaders to his territory in our garden.
After each energetic aerial battle he'd return to his perch high above the ground (twine surrounding our chicken area) to wait for the next interloper. Thrilling stuff!
A bighorn sheep ram appears to have been in a tussle or two over the course of its adult life. Since the rams do not lose their horns each year like an antlered animal, they wear the signs of their previous battles proudly.
Thanks for your views and comments - they are greatly appreciated!

Roaring EMD prime movers fill the air as J783-29 hits the top of Botkins Hill and passes the signals at walking speed on a freezing January morning. The 0.63% climb that separates the Ohio River and Lake Erie watersheds sometimes poses a formidable challenge for heavy southbound trains, and this day is no exception as over 10,000 tons of local traffic heads for Cincinnati
Shot at Van Vihar National Park, Bhopal. Territorial battle between Golden Eagle and Wooly Necked Stork.
When I went to the place, I heard loud bird calls from Coromonts on a tree. I realised a huge Golden Eagle was sitting on the tree. I thought it was there to hunt. So I waited some time for it to catch a meal and maybe I will get a shot. Turns out there was a stork that was stalking the eagle as it jumped from branch to branch.
It was Storks area and eagle was trying to take over. I waited for few hours as eagle took its time to make a move. It happens in bursts and neither of the two are in hurry to attack as it can be fatal.
Unfortunately action when started happened at some distance and so none of the shots in sequence turned out to be sharp.
So I thought it would be a candidate for my worst shot of the year Flickr group.

Happy Monochrome Monday, everyone!
A big bull elk in Rocky Mountain National Park, associating with two other bulls. The divots in his fur, evident on both flanks, may be battle scars. One of the other bulls had the tines broken off his antlers, while the third bull appeared unscathed.
The antlers will drop off soon, and new antlers will start growing in spring. These guys have some time to get back in shape and to think about battle strategy.
The tallest man-made building in the State of Vermont commemorates the Battle of Bennington, a pivotal victory for American forces on the New England front of the American Revolution. The Bennington Battle Monument is 306 feet 4 and 1/2 inches tall and was completed and dedicated in 1891. It is constructed from blue-grey magnesium limestone.

I tried to find micro LEGO tanks like these but I had no luck. Surely, they have been made like this before. If you know where they have been made before let me know and I'll update this.
Interestingly, some of the epaulettes fit nicely and some are too small. Not sure if the mold was changed at some point but the old ones fit better.

Pride leaders pay a heavy price for their position as is evident from this battle-scarred warrior. I watched an older lion, too weak to join the food fest after a kill, still play a dominant role when it came time to bring down a big bull buffalo. It still went out to challenge another younger and stronger looking male encroaching on the pride’s turf. The photographer part of me wanted to photograph a fight but my tender side wanted the pride leader to live to fight another day. There’s nothing like lions to bring out emotions.

After a monumental screw up that could have been easily prevented a week earlier, another opportunity presented itself on the shot. After waiting in town for three and a half hours, a short Y102 returns back north with only a couple cars through Holly, MI past the very charming Battle Alley.
Centipedes have a rounded or flattened head, bearing a pair of antennae at the forward margin. They have a pair of elongated mandibles, and two pairs of maxillae. The first pair of maxillae form the lower lip, and bear short palps. The first pair of limbs stretch forward from the body over the mouth. These limbs, or forcipules, end in sharp claws and include venom glands that help the animal to kill or paralyze its prey.[2] Their size ranges from a few millimetres in the smaller lithobiomorphs and geophilomorphs to about 30 cm (12 in) in the largest scolopendromorphs.[3]
