Went to Warham Camp after the Chalk Hill Blues , managed to get this group shot of them on dog poo before some bad sport sat on it.
used my Mind the Scrap May kit to create this grid style page for todays LOAD prompt.
Used photos of my daughter on stage with Nutty Noah and told the story of how she was better than expected and did exactly as she was told even when he didnt want her too lol
The breezy conditions made catching any fish difficult, but at least there was no shortage of insects for these Common Terns to feed on.
Yellow wagtail (Motacilla flava) - race: flavissima
Meaning behind the name:
Motacilla = Latin meaning: Originally "To move about, Little shaker or wagger" (Obviously, refers to their natural tail wagging behaviour). Also carrys the meaning of "shaketail" from the word having added "cilla" (for tail) to the original scientific name.
flava = Latin for "Golden-yellow"
flavissima = Latin for "Very yellow"
The English word for "wagtail" made its first appearance in 1510 as "wag tayle" and replaced the Old English name "Wag-start" Another name for the Yellow wagtail was "yellow molly".
In the UK, the wagtail names are colourful. Grey, yellow and formally White before the latter was changed to Pied (meaning black and white).
Did you know?
There are several races for this species:
1. Standard British: flavissima (meaning "very yellow")
2. Ashy headed: cinereocapila (meaning "ash-grey")
3. Blue headed: flava (meaning "golden yellow")
4. Grey headed: thunbergi (Named after a Sweedish botanist: Carl Pehr Thunberg)
5. Black headed: feldegg (Named after an Austrian naturalist: Christoph Freiherr)
6. Channel: flacissima x flava
Plus at least 5 others.....
The dark conditions meant a bit of a balancing act was required between iso & shutter speed, just about managed to get this one reasonably sharp at 1/320sec which was a suprise given the dippers sudden movement.
All our behaviour has changed since the pandemic started.
- We have no more group gathering
- We do not visit our friends and families any more
- We work from home
- We do not eat out
- We use technology to avoid interaction in person
- We wear mask
In regard to mask wearing, I believe we still have to do this at least for year 2021!
Have a good day!

I think this is a Warbler, possibly an Audubon Warbler, getting at food on the underside of this rock formation.
One of those shots where you think did I get that, of course a quicker shutter speed and clean background would have been better but sometimes you get what you get with bird and wildlife photography.
If you ever get close to a human
And human behaviour
Be ready, be ready to get confused
And me and my hereafter
There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic
To human behaviour
But yet so, yet so irresistible
And me and my fear cannot
And there is no map uncertain
They're terribly, terribly, terribly moody
Of human behaviour
Then all of a sudden turn happy
And they and my here after
But, oh, to get involved in the exchange
Of human emotions
Is ever so, ever so satisfying
And they and my hero
And there is no map uncertain
Human behaviour, human behaviour
