As if they were being affected by static electricity, the beautiful white wispy plumes of the great white egret when engaged in courtship behavior of its future mate.
Spring is by far my favorite time to photograph these birds as they are nest building, courting, mating, and raising their young.
Nature is amazing :-)
Thanks for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

Good morning folks, here in this image you can see where I assume is the female start to come up out of the water, and the male starts to get into a position where he could try to get busy to do his thing, and you will see that. This series was a very special event for me to witness, and hope that I'm depicting it right so you to can see just what had transpired. Have a great day everyione, and thanks for the visit.
The mockingbirds love to pose and fight, the one in the back looks much worse for the wear, and a little rough on the wings too. The other one seems to be moving fluidly, maybe a little more confident! These two reminded me of old samurai movies, with their winds swinging through the air so much like katanas.
What I like best about the shot is the one on the bottom showing some type of defensive behavior, but doing so fluidly, look at his tail and how it balances the wing movement. This one is firmly anchored and drove off the poor intruder, who is looking rough. If you see him on large, you can see how rough he looks.
Saw this on explore this morning! Thanks everyone for looking and commenting, I sincerely appreciate it! Y'all rock!
This woman's car is PACKED with stuff. She was parked near an outside trash barrel at a retail shop and was inventorying her stash and doing a little house cleaning.

Tubbataha reefs is rightfully famous for its healthy coral cover and charismatic large sharks and manta rays, BUT the fact that humans don’t catch fish there also makes a HUGE difference in fish behavior. Fish are showing many of their natural behaviors, such as feeding, fighting for territory, mating and getting cleaned by specialized wrasses, and all of that right in front of divers’ eyes. Enjoy the new full-length video about fish behavior in Tubbataha:
In the butterfly world there is lots of mimicry in coloration, where a tasty (to a bird) butterfly is colored to look much like one that is poisonous or nasty tasting.
But I have seen this particular behavior several times, usually among the black swallowtails, where the butterfly holds its wings in the position that is much like that of the skipper butterflies.
But then again, maybe this is a way of cooling off for the butterfly. It's been hot lately.
The american bittern is often very difficult to find because it usually is rummaging around in the tall marsh foliage. It becomes visible once in awhile as in this photo or as it flies to a different location.

A medium-sized cockapoo with a wavy, reddish-brown coat displays attentive behavior while seated on a patterned rug, indicative of comfort within a domestic setting.
A fight erupts between two mallard drakes for little reason during their mating season.

Ravens are among the most intelligent birds - often exhibiting behaviors requiring more intelligence and problem solving than many mammals. One famous test that most ravens master on the very first try is the meat on a string on a stick test. A piece of meat is hung off a perch via a string, which is a situation never seen in the wild. Ravens pull up the string with their beaks and then hold the collected string with their feet, and repeat this process until the meat is within reach. This demonstrates a high level of cognition and problem solving. Ravens have been known to lead wolves to kills, so that they can break open the hide while feeding, thereby allowing the ravens access to the meat. Ravens in Yellowstone National Park re-established this behavior when wolves were re-introduced to the park, despite these ravens not having shared a habitat with wolves for many generations. They are also among the most playful of birds, and have been seen sliding down snowbanks, seemingly just for fun, and will break sticks off of trees to engage in social play with other ravens, thus making their own "toys". They have among the largest brains amonst birds.
A surprise attack from behind (over what I don't know) catches the attackee (?) by surprise on the beach. If this is mating behavior...Ouch! (Egretta thula, Arfeidae).
The recent cool weather was not to this cat's liking. It usually has more energy than the Energizer Bunny, and sometimes literally runs around the walls and recoils off people! It discovered this ray of morning sunshine coming through a bedroom window and claimed this spot as its own. I couldn't pass up this posed shot! (For you cat lovers... it's a Russian Blue.)

I woke up at 6am, got coffee by 6:30am, and had gathered the squares and made this rug by 7:15.
This kind of behavior happens about twice a year.
Don't you just love when they pose for you
shot at the Emperor Valley Zoo, Trinidad & Tobago.
Honestly i Think it's a swan goose but i could be wrong if anyone knows the name of this beautiful bird please let me know.
My two cents to the B.M. (The Big Mess).
Yahoo´s behavior on important issues such as the free speech debate in China and what´s happening here in Flickr right now are very sad stories.
I´m not sure if Yahoo and Flickr are really blocking content due to local legal restrictions (nude content is not forbidden in Germany, for instance) or if they are just taking [bad] management decisions.
Filtering mature content is a parenthood and family issue. The existing filters are already useful for this kind of situation.
Blocking content is not a serious solution. Which is the next country?

Flickr sperrt uns aus! Und auch dich!
Seit gestern werden für deutsche Nutzer keine Bilder mehr angezeigt, die als 'moderate' oder 'restricted' markiert sind! Es gibt keine Moeglichkeit das umzustellen - das ist eine grobe Unverschämtheit und Frechheit von flickr!
We are the users - don't forget that flickr!
Deswegen treten wir gemeinsam in Aktion und zeigen allen, das uns das nicht gefällt was flickr mit uns macht! Füge das Bild zu deinen Favoriten hinzu und poste es!
In English:
If your Yahoo! ID is based in Singapore, Germany, Hong Kong or Korea, you will only be able to view safe content based on your local Terms of Service, and therefore won’t be able to turn off SafeSearch.
In other words, german users can't access photos on flickr that are not flaged "safe" ... only flowers and landscapes for the germans ...
We won't let this happen! Copy and upload this picture to your account - show flickr who we are.
Espanol:
No sé cuando, pero muy recientemente a las cuentas de Alemania, Hong Kong, Corea y Singapur les han prohibido ver las fotos que están en el Safe Search, las mismas en las que a nosotros nos dan la opcíón de ver o no ver. A ellos simplemente se lo prohiben. Chale no?
Francais:
Si votre compte Yahoo! est basé à Singapour, à Hong Kong, en Corée ou en Allemagne, vous ne pourrez voir que les photos qui n'ont pas été marquées comme ayant un contenu qui peut choquer. Toutes les autres ne vous seront pas accessibles. Vous serez donc condamnés à ne voir que des paysages et des fleurs. Il ne faut pas laisser faire ça. Envoyez cette photo sur votre compte pour montrer à Flickr que nous savons nous mobiliser contre la censure !
