I had to stop one more time and visit the bond waterfalls here in the U.P. of Michigan before my 8 hour drive home, just a stunning place to see and relax.
from on top of a hill we looked down onto a waterhole and saw this mother paying a lot of attention to her new foal, it couldn't have been more than 2 weeks old and watching it run around and kick up some dirt was too precious..

Elephants use their trunk for hugs, caressing, stroking gently they can calm down anxiety in another elephant or encourage them to move forward.......
This image is just a humble but wholehearted tribute to the man I have admired most in my life. I took it just four days before he passed away at age 93. The metastasis in his brain had him unsettled and delirious during the last few days of his life, and holding his hand seemed to give him peace, at least for a short while. When I see this photo a hint of sorrow certainly hits me, but the overwhelming feeling is gratitude to this unaffected yet great man I had the privilege to call “dad” for more than fifty years.
Helgoland series: The Bond
Northern Gannets are very gentle and affectionate towards their partners. Sometimes the lifelong bond between the breeding partners seems almost tangible.

I don’t know what they sell from this shed, but they give Gold Bond Stamps. Maybe they sell paddle boats or Coca Cola. Remember when we had those booklets to paste our Green Stamps and Gold Stamps into. You had to collect thousands to get anything good from the redemption store. I liked to paste them into the book when I was a kid. Where have all the good times gone ...LOL?
**We have been allowed to come home**
Yes, we have been evacuated again. This fire is closer to where we live. It was started when SCE shut the power off. Some guy who had not been maintaining his generator, switched it on: it exploded.
We're fine. The cats are fine.
Just back from a great trip to the Northwoods of Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan. We were fortunate to hit "peak" fall color which was as good as any we have seen in the Northwoods (smile!).
Shown here is picturesque Bond Falls (upper falls) in Michigan's upper peninsula.

I like colorful fall reflections on water and I am always on the lookout for them. When I saw these at Bond Falls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan I was amazed. The day before in the afternoon there was nothing like this, but at 9:00 am the next day the river was covered in color. I went to work and recorded many different images.
To make this I had to use a tripod, shoot at 100 ISO, have a slow shutter, and a small aperture. I spent most of my time shooting the little mini-falls that precede the dramatic bottom falls.
Camera settings: ISO 100, aperture f/13, shutter .3 sec, focal length 48 mm

Bonding Ritual?
Even though I could not see a nest or chicks, I watched this pair of Black-necked Stilts very aggressively defending a small island at Bombay Hook NWR. If shorebirds landed close by one would fly off to chase them away, if a gull or Osprey got too close both would chase it away.
Besides this, on two or three occasions when there was no intruder, the pair flew up almost vertically close together, calling loudly then glided back to the island. I am speculating that this interesting behavior might perhaps be a bonding ritual.

PS Yesterday others spotted their chick on the island
Bond Falls is AMAZING - The first thing you see when approaching from the trail is the IMMENSE waterfalls which IS Bond Falls - but walking along the falls on the trail brings you back a bit further and it just seems to get better and better - I loved this particular spot as it depicts the beauty of the woods and the Waterfalls seeping through - and of course Autumn has arrived!!
On our way to Keeweenau Peninsula, we saw a sign for Bond Falls. Having seen this on Flickr before, I knew it was worth a stop even though we were in a hurry.
Someone else was in a hurry too, just saw on a U.P. website that someone had left a camera and tripod there.

The fish bite the best at night. I have photographed these 2 a few times now. The bond they have is amazing. Maybe we need a lot more fishing in the world today.
Although the mist hung around all morning, the soft light helped avoid burning out their white highlights and was kind to the gentle pastel pink of the male's chest.
These 2 are sticking close together during the pair bonding season, which roughly occurs from last week in September to the middle of October.
