Record shots of this bird at Iona Island, BC, taken an hour after it was first found on August 24 2016. A long awaited and overdue lifer for me!
The Pantanal, Brazil
Approximately 75cm long, this fairly large bird lives in a wide range of open habitats, including fields, marshes, savanna and grassland. Its main diet consists of insects, spiders, frogs, reptiles, snails, invertebrates and small mammals found in soft soils. [Information courtesy of wikipedia]

One species (among many) that has eluded me for ages-until today.
Distant crops.
I rarely go Boundary Bay any more mostly because it is so far away. But Sunday traffic is not too bad and I have been trying to capture more shorebirds. I was shooting a bunch of what I think were Semipalmated Sandpipers. When I got home to check my images I found this shot, sadly the best of the bunch but I do not think it is a Semipalmated Sandpiper. Am I right in that it is a Buff-breasted Sandpiper? If you feel it is something else could you please give me details, thank you.

A buff-tailed bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) on our island last summer. At least I think it must be that species, but there are a few earth bumblebees that look alike.
I photographed one on some pink cross-leaved heath (klokkelyng in Norwegian) this morning as well, right by the lighthouse and ocean - while out on the last birdwatching trip for the bird station this spring.
It is one of the most numerous bumblebee species in Europe, and is one of the main species used in greenhouse pollination. That's why it can be found in many countries and areas where it is not native, such as Tasmania.
Here it is on the flower called marsh gentian.

This is one of a pair of Buff-banded Rails that I have seen quite often this year. Usually these rails are quite secretive and skittish at Herdsman, but this pair have been happily foraging out in the open. Such fun to watch.

Phalera bucephala. This was quite a scruffy looking individual but from this angle it still has a certain charm to it. HMM!
Buff-bellied Pipit (Anthus rubescens) is known as American Pipit in America, but it also occurs in Eastern Asia including Japan. I'm old enough to remember when it used to be considered a subspecies of Water Pipit (A. spinoletta), a taxon that also included our own Rock Pipit (A petrosus). But the species was split in 1986 when it was discovered that the easternmost subspecies of Water Pipit (A.s.blakistoni) was living alongside the japonicus race of Buff-bellied Pipit without interbreeding. My first ever Buff-bellied Pipit was an American race (A.r.rubescens) on the Scilly Isles in 1988 though I have seen many since in America (plus a couple in China).
The distinguishing features of Buff-bellied Pipit are dark legs and a distinct buffy wash to the underparts, which are profusely but finely streaked. The back and face are rather plain, apart from a pale supercilium (eyebrow). I photographed this one on the Nekite Estuary in British Columbia.

This is a buff orpington hen, pecking around for cracked corn in the grass. I had chicken tending duties tonight at Wright-Locke Farm.

I think this is a Buff Ermine Moth (Spilosoma luteum) - but I'm open to suggestions!
Found in my house and moved carefully to some leaves to enable a photograph to be taken. Replaced into original position.
