Behavior Study 3: this young Herring Gull repeated dropped and retrieved a stick in the water. Was it "play", skill training, or a mix of both?

In this sequence, the Osprey "flew", not dove into the water and flapped around, just enjoying a dip. This is the first time I have witnessed this behavior.

This digital art was generated from a color photo of a man. All my digital art is generated from "normal" photos of real guys. Usually it is a guy I consider sexy but sometimes not. Sometimes the original photo would be considered "X." But you can't tell that, now can you? I consider most of my digital art to be "shoegaze."

"Just curious" may not be a behavior change goal, but Fitbit's designers recognized that people who choose it may just need some encouragement to stick around so they can decide what they want to do.

After successfully swimming through the hoop, a food pellet is delivered and a red light comes on (to signal that they earned the food).
Yesterday morning I found this unusual scene (for me), two Jumpers in a strange behavior. I think it's a mating behavior, but I'm confused.

During the Delaware Healthcare Fall Forum, Secretary Landgraf presented on Delaware’s Changing Behavioral Health Care Landgraf to the more than 200 attendees on Oct. 27 at Delaware Tech’s Terry Campus. She laid out the facts in behavioral health, including:
•More than 10,000 Delaware adults are estimated to be living with serious and persistent mental illness.
•In 2014, 9,897 Delaware adults sought public treatment for addiction.
•Heroin overdose deaths alone more than tripled between 2009 and 2013.
•8.9% of Delaware young people age 12-17 had a major depressive issue in the past year.
•3 out of 10 Delaware high school girls said they felt sad or hopeless for almost every day for two weeks or more.
“These statistics represent real human beings,” Secretary Landgraf said.
She told the group that Delaware’s addiction epidemic is a public health crisis. “For too long, we approached it as a character flaw. ‘If you just try harder you won’t be addicted.’ It doesn’t work that way.” Now, she said, “we need to embrace the disease and appropriate levels of treatment.” She told attendees representing Delaware’s hospital systems that “we will work with you in a way that we promote health and wellness” as DHSS builds capacity in the public treatment system.
On innovation in the health care delivery system, Secretary Landgraf said behavioral health has to be integrated with primary care. “We know all the expectation for change falls on the provider.” Delaware’s innovation plan will change the way health care is paid for and delivered. “Payers have to be part of the innovation,” she said. “They are the engine to this.” Delaware’s innovation work includes resources for behavioral health providers to build electronic health records capabilities. Plus, screening for depression among adolescents and adults will be part of the primary care practice scorecard.

A young coyote launches into the air, frozen mid-pounce above a sea of green. The morning light catches its fur just as it zeroes in on hidden prey.
I photographed this moment at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge in Oklahoma. It was early in the day, and the grasses were still wet with dew.
Coyotes often hunt by leaping to surprise small mammals like mice or voles. This one showed classic form, ears locked forward, body arched, and legs tucked.

FORT BELVOIR, Va. (February 10, 2017)
The Belvoir Hospital opens the Department of Defense's first Adolescent Inpatient Behavioral Health unit February 10, 2017. The event was attended by military medicine leadership from across the National Capital Region. The goal of the unit is to reduce the burden of mental illness on affected adolescents and their families by offering evidence-based treatments in a professional, caring environment.

Bad Behavior from Preston describe themselves as a six piece “balls to the wall” glam rock extravaganza and that pretty much sums this band up in a nutshell. The last competitive band of the competition and good lord, what a way to finish! Looking every part the Glam Rockers resplendent in their colourful outfits and make up, but it was really the front man, Phil Bailey, who not only took centre stage but looked the most avant garde a he did his level best to be the consummate front man. With three guitars on stage, the vocals were sometimes overwhelmed especially during 'Born To Party' but it was still a good performance overall. The bands cover was Alice Coopers' 'Man Behind the Mask', and although not one of the famous Cooper songs, it was nevertheless a good cover by the band. Bailey is predictably theatrical here which ties in very well with the bands image and although this is a proper band with serious musicians, there's nothing in the book saying that you can’t do it without planting your tongue firmly in your cheek! Their final number 'Apocalypse Now' was the best of the set with its great guitar riff that has the place jumping on and off stage. As the song reached its climax Bailey announced "This is the end!" and as the curtain falls on their performance, the band are greeted with generous applause as they take their final bows. What a great way to end the competition!

To promote forest health and reduce hazardous buildups of brush, branches, and needles that could result in a catastrophic wildfire, the Airport Road South Prescribed Fire was conducted on May 11, 2016, by the BLM Carson City District-Sierra Front Field Office. This photo shows low fire consuming needles, brush, and branches, making more room for the Jeffrey pines to grow and reducing the chances of wildfire.
The desert elephants of Namibia’s Kunene Region are a distinctive population adapted to life in an extremely arid environment. They are one of only two populations of “desert” elephants in the world (the other is in Mali, North Africa) and have a number of notable physical and behavioral differences. There has been some speculation that desert elephants are a separate subspecies, but the movement of bull elephants between savannah areas like Etosha, and the desert, suggests that there is sufficient genetic exchange that they are not a unique subspecies. However, Namibia’s desert elephants are unusual in some of their learned behaviors, such as long-distance migration, that allow them to survive in this difficult environment.
They have adapted to their dry, semi-desert environment by having a smaller body mass with proportionally longer legs and seemingly larger feet than other elephants.
