The sandbanks in the area of the Maasvlakte act as an important filling station for migrating birds. The highly industrialised landscape in the background and the grey skies add an odd contrast to the athmosphere.

I may be missing an eye, but I can still see and I'm the alpha male whether you believe it or not.

Fredvang is located on the island of Moskenesøya in the Lofoten archipelago. The village is fairly isolated with the Fredvang Bridges being the only road connection to the village from the rest of Norway.

#Bird

I wouldn't normally put up two images but just had to include some birds as they are one of the things that bring me great joy in the neighbourhood.

One of the benefits of living on the edge of suburbia is the bird suprises, especially the raptors as there are still large ares of grassland to hunt. I have only included a few here but they are either the characters of the neighbourhood or the big surprises.

Last week I walked out my front door to find an Australian Hobby on the antenna across the road. A first for me and I was such a birdie nerdie, I couldn't stop the excited chatter. No-one quite understood my delirium.

I have seen Emus on about five occasions, probably escapees from emu farms and my pièce de résistance was the Lathams Snipe.

My son Roman found this Humming-bird Moth today, in the memorial garden that we planted for my parents. I've never seen one of these in person before, so I got pretty excited. Photographed in Maryland.

A single image, shot hand held. Canon 80D, Canon MPE macro lens, Canon twin macro flash. Aperture f/11, shutter speed 1/250, ISO 400, flash set to 1/16th power.

I was impressed with how well it blended in with the spring colors in the tree.

Latest snowfall forced me to seek warmth in my photos from my India trip towards end of 2017. Though trip like this is always more a social visit, in the last two trips I made sure that I left some time to look for old world birds. This photo was taken while riding a dinghy around an Oxbow lake formed by river Ganges. Winter is definitely the best time to see many variety of migratory bird around the lake.

Thanks so much for the visit!

(Bird did not like my salad)

This is our state bird here in Kentucky. After dinner this afternoon I thought I'd shoot a few images from my porch near a feeder I have in a tree. There were a hundred or more birds swooping around. The Yellow Background is the glow of the setting sun.

Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday

Thanks for stopping by.

When I lived in Ohio, the Robin returning was the first sign of spring. Here in Florida, the Robins are here for the winter but you don't always see them. Glad to see a small flock.

Thanks so much for the visit!
