The Black-tailed Godwits (Limosa limosa) should be returning any moment now.
70% of the European population breeding in the coastal area of the Netherlands. Sadly, numbers have been dropping for decades.
Jonah got the call the message was clear
go to Nineveh in enemy land
the territory was evil and the Lord very vexed
and so they were about to be hexed
with destruction on high
But God in His mercy told Jonah to go
and tell them to turn back
and Jonah thought no
you can't get me to go
I'm hiding and that's that
well he jumped on a ship
headed towards Mars
but the Lord has all the cards
Jonah ended up at Nineveh
when he got a ride from a fish
it wasn't the taxi ride he expected
the calling was clear the subject so dear
change your ways or your not going to stay
alive and well and by the way, how about going to hell
so Jonah did as he was told though he didn't feel very bold
in fact, Jonah though it was over
when low and behold the King got the word
and did just what he was told.
the kingdom was saved
the city rejoiced and Jonah had learned his lesson
do as your told and let the Lord be so bold
because after all it is His kingdom
Calling Pika. Love photographing this high elevation specialist, but man do I hate crawling all over the rocks they live around. Taken with a D500 + 500mm at 1/1250 f/6.3 ISO 800.

A predawn hike led me to the above destination, Norway Pass. Thoughts of an early morning bear encounter got me calling old army cadence the entire hike as I forgot my bear bell. Thankfully, no one was around to hear my screeching voice, and not only did it keep the bears away, it kept EVERYTHING away. Not a single deer, elk, goat, raven to be seen...NADA, nothing.
In celebration of the American Bald Eagle being named the symbol of the United States of America some 235 years ago, I encourage everyone to take a moment to think about what the bald eagle means to you.
For many, it brings up feelings of pride, majesty, strength, respects, and freedom ... which of course it does within me as well. It also reminds me of how conservation efforts can save species and insure their survival of the species for many years to come. Either way, the sight of a bald eagle always makes me feel proud.
This pair of eagles was photographed late last year in central Florida at the beginning of breeding season. Many people don't realize it, but Florida has one of the greatest populations of bald eagles in the lower 48, having more than 1500 nesting pairs.
Thanks for stopping by to view.

One week since disaster struck Japan and more than 452,000 people have been made homeless by the quake and tsunami. They are staying in schools and other shelters, and supplies of fuel, medicine and other necessities are running short.

Your light always beckons me
Calls me, cajoles me
Along this stretch of road
I keep returning
As if there is something
I need to be told
It frustrates me
And compels me
At the same time
But if I don’t stop
It’s worse
I can’t leave it behind
Why? What is it?
Why do I come here
I feel like I am running on the spot
A strange satisfaction is my reward
A recognition of love twisted
Shared and adored

Have you ever felt compelled to keep returning to a favourite stretch of road? I have known this road in Sussex [in the UK] all my life, often parking up and walking from certain spots from the road up to and along the Downs Way and other lesser known paths, as I used to with my family when I was young.
It feels as though it is imprinted on my DNA, and maybe by now it is. This road from Wilmington to Litlington and then on to Friston runs alongside the River Cuckmere in places, but then rises up above it so the views of the river in the valley below can be seen. It runs through different habitats and some beautiful villages, all with medieval Parish Churches. It also runs past the famous Long Man of Wilmington, a vast chalk outline figure of a man holding a rod in each hand, but the date of his original carving is unknown with any certainty.
But every time I drive along this road, it is different. The weather and the seasons keep me entranced, as do the parts that are scenically beautiful. But often it is when the weather can be harsh that the most atmospheric shots are taken, when things do not feel quite safe.
But here in this image, the weather was more benign. However, in this particular spot, despite the sunshine, there always seems to be a chill in the air. I do not know why I feel so compelled to stop at this point, but I do, and maybe one day I will find out.
This work can also be found on a new page about the Sussex landscape on my website, as I have written quite a few works inspired by the photography I have taken over the years recently, so I decided that there was going to be enough to merit the addition of a separate page on its own for those works that challenge our perception of what we are seeing and perhaps more accurately, what we are feeling.
The page is called Land Sense, and it is a celebration of how the landscape interacts with our emotions, our wellbeing and at times, the ability to take us out of our comfort zone.
More will be added over time, but here is a link where an introduction can be found and the poems designed in such a way that they become a complete work with the image as a viewing experience.
A pine siskin calling among a flock - I really like the branch this bird is singing on / calling on, tons of lichen that really began to wake up during that brief spring spell we had last week.
i wanted to show how grey my hair was getting.
only the boring demarcation
.... bus walks
ego war pings some
then virtue
unnotice
deep hollar hooks bridging the nail with visual leeds
rolling soft barrels
new stereo gear
new amplifiers rolling
the smoking worlds calling
the Only
His engine mod is no good!

Another part of the ritual of the males trying to attract the females involved them swimming by quickly, tilting back and calling out to the females "Hey look how cool I am" or something to that effect. 😁
Cowling prey and calling to adult
Falco tinnunculus
The chicks fledge gradually when they are around four weeks old. They explore increasing distances from the nest, but return to it to roost for another couple of weeks. Adults continue to feed the young for a month after fledging, during which time they will learn to catch their own food.
In the autumn, kestrels readjust their territories to make best use of winter food supply.

London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, ya boys and girls

A challenge was made and Popabong Tendaze came out swinging with this great "Brit Brat" tee! (If you know a British brat who would like this, you can get it from Fuckery Department.)
Auf Krawall gebürstet?
Früh morgens im Moor: eine Rabenkrähe ruft minutenlang von ihrem Ansitz aus ins Moor. Es war kein Gegener, z. B. ein Greif, zu sehen. Auch keine Artgenossen. Von mir und der Kamera nahm sie keine Notiz.
Early morning a carrion crow (Corvus corone corone) is calling and calling very loud and combativ (?). No "enemy" like a bird of prey was around. Not even a co crow. The bird did not took any notice from me or my camera. By the way a beautiful looking bird.
