Today's fun fact - Black Swans were presumed not to exist because there was only ever records of white ones. Then when Europeans discovered they did in fact exist, in WA Australia, the phrase "black swan" was coined. The Black Swan by scholar Nassim Taleb, was ranked by the Sunday Times one of the 12 most influential books since World War II. Taleb's black swan theory states that dramatic unexpected events matter more to history than regular happenings.
Bit simpler for me, I just like to photograph them on the local lake. Especially at sunset. Like little floating silhouettes. (bit of an older pic, revisiting some unloved pics from my Flickr exile years)
A group shot of these beautifully coloured & patterned waders (complete with photo-bombing Lapwing).
Quite a hard crop, so this image is a little noisy, but I rather like this early morning scene.
Melanistic leopards (very dark brown) are commonly called black panthers. However, there is no such animal. The dark color, called melansim, is due to a recessive gene. Melanistic cubs can be born to spotted parent

Saltator atripennis
(Black-winged Saltator / Saltador de alas negras)
The Black-winged Saltator is a fairly common resident of humid montane forest on the west slope of the Andes from southern Ecuador to northern Colombia. It is more difficult to see than some other species of saltator, perhaps due to its preference for the canopy and its avoidance of clearings.

Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back. Yes, I'm
Let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I keep lookin' at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse cause I'll never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild
'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black, hey
Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet
I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a band, with a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck
Just get out of my way
'Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yes I am
Hey yeah, yeah oh yeah
Back in now
Well I'm ba-hey hey hey hey (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey, (I'm back)
Hey hey hey hey
Back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Out of the sight
They are normally quite easily spooked, but this one didn't seem that bothered by me at all! Manningtree estuary.
Low tide on the River Alde near Snape in Suffolk, UK. An outstanding spot for wading birds. Here is a black-tailed godwit posing in the muck and early morning light.

Madeline has been enjoying breakfast in the sunshine.
The tails must be the best bit because they are always the last to go down
For "smile on saturday" and
"reflection on black"!
This is my first attempt to shoot reflection on a black background. I spent a lot of time on this task, but mostly cleaning up black smooth and shiny surfaces and mirrors. Even the dust dropped from the feather, so at the end I had to remove those tiny dust particles in Lightroom.
Have a great day and thank you for visiting,
HSoS!
