Baby's big enough to sit in restaurant's high chairs now. But his patience is still limited and after a while he wants out.
Congratulations to an inaugural class of 22 officers from the Royal Grenada Police Force who completed an 8-week Social & Behavioral Policing program with SGU's School of Arts & Sciences.
A feisty relationship in the nest. This was one of ten pecking attacks that went back and forth in about 20 minutes of shooting. Makes for a good shot thought.

Something I worked up to vent my frustration after a couple of freelance projects - and after talking to some colleagues about our history with clients.
It's amazing how things that would be completely absurd in other situations are somehow perfectly acceptable to ask of a creative - especially since it's always assumed that it won't cost extra.

My dad might refer to Nano mostly as "Asshole" but he's not above bribing his affections with slivers of feta cheese. Or teaching him to JUMP for food. Thanks, dad.
"The tallest bird in North America [about 5 feet tall!]... Whooping Cranes are territorial in both summer and winter, living in family groups..." - www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Whooping_Crane/lifehistory
I got to see the "territorial" side of their behavior on my visit to Lamar, TX, last December. Two adult Whooping Cranes and their juvenile offspring were sharing a field (Whooping Cranes eat a "wide variety of plant and animal matter, including mollusks, crustaceans, insects, fish, frogs, and waste grain") with a flock of Sandhill Cranes. The young Whooper decided to "make it his business" to show a pair of Sandhill Cranes "who's the boss." The Whooper's parents followed as he chased them down, perhaps to make sure their offspring didn't get into any serious trouble. It all ended peacefully, of course.
This all took place about 1/4 mile away from me - I captured it on a misty morning with my new 150-600mm Tamron lens, and further cropped the photos, so the photo quality is not what I would have liked - BUT I was lucky enough to see Whooping Cranes, of which there are only about 600 in the world, and fewer than 300 in the wild. The photos are on Flickr: the "movie" is on YouTube, at www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-sL5rLj42Q.
No bird better symbolizes national and international conservation efforts than the Whooping Crane. Probably never common, the species suffered from sport hunting and loss of prairie marsh habitat. Its population reached its lowest level in the 1940s, when only 16 wild individuals returned to their traditional wintering area on the Texas coast.
Intensive conservation efforts have raised the Whooping Crane's numbers to more secure levels. These include protection of breeding, migration, and wintering areas, as well as captive-rearing and release programs...
As of 2001, the only self-sustaining wild population was nesting in Wood Buffalo National Park in Canada's Northwest Territories, and wintering at the Aransas National Wildlife Refuge on the Texas coast.
During the 1990s a nonmigratory Whooping Crane flock was established in the Kissimmee Prairie, Florida (red area on the map) using birds from captive rearing programs at the International Crane Foundation, the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, and the Calgary Zoo. Numbering 91 individuals by February 2000, some of these birds have started to breed, although their survival is not without problems.
After five years of planning, the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership launched a bold effort in October 2001 to introduce a migratory Whooping Crane flock to Florida. Eight Whooping Crane juveniles were trained to follow an ultralight aircraft, making their southward journey from Necedah National Wildlife Refuge in Wisconsin to Florida's Chassahowitska National Wildlife Refuge (red line on the map). Biologists hoped that the young cranes would make the return journey northward in spring alone. In April 2002 their dream came true—five of the young cranes migrated north successfully. Similar ambitious plans exist for migratory populations in the prairie provinces of Canada.
Thanks to these and other conservation efforts, the Whooping Crane's once-tenuous future seems more assured.

Group behavior: large number of people in a given area behave simultaneously in similar way and have a similar goal, that might be different from what they would do individually
