Breakfast at a Rose of Sharon bush

The Broad-bodied Chaser (Libellula Depressa) is one of the commonest dragonflies found in Europe this male was photographed at the New Lount Nature Reserve which at one time was a Coal Mine but has now been returned back to nature. The pool where these Chasers can be found is always brown in colour whatever time of the year you visit, not sure why as the other pools and ponds on the reserve are clear, I can only presume this may be something to do with the old workings.

Immature male, the first one that I had found almost eight years ago. Taken from one of my old burned CDs, and the camera long gone.

Broad-winged Hawk Hunting in Our Backyard. Came up with a Cicada.

 

August 2024

Columbia, Missouri

Male, in a moment of quiet contemplation...or maybe just planning his next attack!

This plant is slender and likes semi shaded places and usually has just a few pink flowers with four deeply notched petals arranged in a cross. Despite the plant’s name, the oval leaves are not particularly wide, but are broader than those of similar species. The rounded, slender stems are reddish, and the flowering period is May until August and the seed pods are long slender capsules with a purplish tinge, producing fluffy seeds.

Even though caught by surprise, a middle-age man grins and makes a hand gesture of approval as I take his candid photo while he is having a chat with another guy.

 

That other guy is at the porch of his house by the highway. He, on the other hand, is sitting on the saddle of his bicycle cart which he parked on the roadside in front of the said house.

 

Captured in mid-morning at a village in Subic, Zambales, Philippines.

A feathered neon sign - such magnificent colors!

It must be mating time because these guys are all around the house, watching for, and chasing each other. SHortly after taking this photo, this male spotted another bird and took chase!

Long exposure at Rock Island in Trail, BC, Canada

A quiet urban street is lined with tall, lush green trees, and features a potted plant in the middle of the road. Storefronts and buildings are visible along the sides of the street under a partly cloudy sky.

Philadelphia City hall seen from Broad and Spruce Street.

On October 7th at least 40 Broad wings passed over hawk hill in the Marin Headlands. All appeared to be juveniles with two being dark morph birds.

It's nice when the bird calls you to photograph it. This hawk was sitting on branch next to the trail. A rather low light viewing.

Isopogon anemonifolius

Broad-billed hummingbird at Sweetwater Wetlands Park (Tucson, AZ)

I was really excited to see this guy today!

 

Taken at Victoria Park, which is located in the town of Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Taken on 14 March 2014 and uploaded 21 August 2024.

 

I don't know the story behind this, and I won't mock it.

 

I used to pass this regularly, when walking between Gravesend and Greenhithe. It's at the far end of Broadness Creek, near the tip of Swanscombe Peninsula on the River Thames.

A boat in a barge, with its front end cut away. Nearby are more boats, some huts and dwellings (?) at the end of wooden walkways. Eventually, the boat was burned and today, 21 August 2024, I looked at Google Maps and the barge has been removed. There are signs that other vessels have gone, too.

Over the time I was walking through the area I did see people, but not many: their cars, signs of other boats being worked on, other boats arriving, but it was pretty quiet and unhurried.

It's a young male dragonfly.

Nice fresh male, Powerstock Common, Dorset.
