See what I mean a bit of show stopper

These flowers are really common here in Singapore. Most of the time they don't look interesting to me but not this time. It might be the storm clouds approaching from behind that made them more....appealing :)

Many pelicans fish by swimming in cooperative groups. They may form a line or a "U" shape and drive fish into shallow water by beating their wings on the surface. When fish congregate in the shallows, the pelicans simply scoop them up.

We all are inter-connected and inter-related. With detreating wildlife, humans will be left with a dark future. Happy World Wildlife Day!

Happy World Wildlife Day ✨

Love the painterly look of it out of the cam :)) The light from the side wall gave these beautiful hues of yellow and orange.

Floral arrangement designed by Garden Party Flowers Vancouver www.gardenpartyflowers.ca

Red Bird of Paradise (Paradisaea rubra) male performing a practice display at his display site, known as a lek, high in the canopy of the forest on Batanta Island, Indonesia. Photographed from a canopy blind.

IUCN Red List: NT

Ended up in the South Bay today, these are outside Paradise Valley Hospital.

Used free photoshop action, "The So-Called Orton Effect". I also put in the clouds using cloud photoshop brushes from deviantart.com. You can see where I screwed up and the cloud is on top of the tree trunk....lazy me.

Tropical flower from sub tropical Tennessee.

Superb Bird-of-Paradise
