Le Martin-pêcheur, remarquable par sa silhouette caractéristique et ses couleurs éclatantes, est un oiseau de taille modeste, Perché, il se tient dressé. Le corps, court et trapu, paraît disproportionné comparé à la grosse tête prolongée d'un long bec en forme de poignard (4 cm). Les minuscules pattes rouges et la queue très rudimentaire sont également les signes caractéristiques du genre Alcedo. Les deux couleurs dominantes du plumage sont le bleu, pouvant passer au vert selon la luminosité sur le dessus, et le roux orangé chaud sur les parties inférieures. De plus près, on distingue le dessus de la tête et les ailes bleu verdâtre, le dos et la queue bleu clair variant du bleu azur au bleu cobalt ainsi que la gorge blanche. Les côtés du cou également blancs sont bordés au niveau de la joue d'une tache orangée soulignée elle-même d'une large bande bleue. Le bec du mâle est entièrement noir, celui de la femelle est teinté de rouge ou d'orangé à la base de la mandibule inférieure. Le juvénile ressemble à l'adulte, mais avec le plumage plus terne et plus vert. Les pattes sont grisâtres. Les ailes courtes sont animées de battements soutenus permettant un vol très rapide et droit.

The Kingfisher, remarkable for its characteristic silhouette and bright colors, is a bird of modest size, Perched, he stands erect. The body, short and stocky, seems disproportionate compared to the large head extended by a long beak-shaped dagger (4 cm). The tiny red legs and the very rudimentary tail are also characteristic signs of the Alcedo genus. The two dominant colors of the plumage are blue, which can change to green depending on the brightness on the top, and the orange red hot on the lower parts. Closer to home, there is the top of the head and the greenish-blue wings, the back and tail light blue ranging from azure blue to cobalt blue and the white throat. The sides of the neck also white are bordered at the cheek of an orange spot underlined by a broad blue band. The beak of the male is entirely black, that of the female is tinged with red or orange at the base of the lower mandible. The juvenile resembles the adult, but with the feathers duller and greener. The legs are grayish. The short wings are animated by sustained beats allowing a very fast and straight flight.

Quite a pleasant view, it certainly is nicer than great featureless slabs of bare brick........dotted with steel or fire escape doors
( necessary though they are ) you could say this one is rather well suited, for those who rail against graffiti.
I don't find it in the least Offensive ;-))))))))

Marsh Owl is a critically endangered species is Morocco. This piece tries to address one of the main problems causing its decline, and your help is much appreciated.
Marsh Owl (Asio capensis) is a typical owl restricted to Africa and its biggest island. Three subspecies are recognised: 1) the nominate subspecies which has the largest range – from East to Southern Africa, plus isolated populations in West Africa; 2) A. c. hova in Madagascar, and 3) A. c. tingitanus in northwest Morocco.
Globally, the species is not threatened and is currently categorised as ‘Least Concern’ in the IUCN Red List. However, this is not the case for the isolated and declining Moroccan population. There is no Red List for Moroccan avifauna, but the species should easily qualify as ‘Critically Endangered’ for a number of criteria.

Jubilee 45699 Galetea gets into its stride departing York on the Scarborough Spa Express. That three cylinder beat sounds good especially when working hard.
Soul listen to your heart beat. Heart beat under the moon knocking at your door ...... Don’t linger. Remember - the wind come from, is where you should go. Don’t worry about the journey. Just listen to your heart . I will guide you to reincarnation.
The pulse of the night doesn’t beat in silence.
It echoes in electric rhythms, in bold glances, in bodies dancing unapologetically.
He doesn’t just mix music — he summons freedom through every speaker.
With the flag on his chest and fire in his hands.
This isn’t just a dance floor.
It’s a temple where every beat is a cry of self-love.
Where no one hides.
Where being is enough.
(Sira & Richard de Grataine)

With the weather like it is... the best way to beat the heat I've found is with a steady supply of popsicles and some good music. So what if my headphones have devil horns? That's not me invoking hell on earth! Nope!

Ten minutes before sundown and I knew that if I stopped my hasty retreat off the hills to take a shot of this storm pelting down over Cheshire, then I'd be drenched by the rest of it that was approaching me from behind...so I stopped, as you do, got drenched, as you do, then sat in the rain pummelled car with a huge, wet Cheshire Cat grin on my face, as you do! :-)
Male Wood Ducks are pretty hard to beat in beauty contests. The reflection also was amazing the other morning.

The barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) is the most widespread species of swallow in the world. It is a distinctive passerine bird with blue upperparts and a long, deeply forked tail. It is found in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. In Anglophone Europe it is just called the swallow; in Northern Europe it is the only common species called a "swallow" rather than a "martin".
There are six subspecies of barn swallow, which breed across the Northern Hemisphere. Four are strongly migratory, and their wintering grounds cover much of the Southern Hemisphere as far south as central Argentina, the Cape Province of South Africa, and northern Australia. Its huge range means that the barn swallow is not endangered, although there may be local population declines due to specific threats.
The barn swallow is a bird of open country that normally uses man-made structures to breed and consequently has spread with human expansion. It builds a cup nest from mud pellets in barns or similar structures and feeds on insects caught in flight. This species lives in close association with humans, and its insect-eating habits mean that it is tolerated by humans; this acceptance was reinforced in the past by superstitions regarding the bird and its nest. There are frequent cultural references to the barn swallow in literary and religious works due to both its living in close proximity to humans and its annual migration. The barn swallow is the national bird of Estonia.
