Looking directly south at sunset near Harrow, Ontario.
The indistinct islands are distorted due to distance and differences in air temperatures.

Nachtreiher (Nycticorax nycticorax)
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nachtreiher
Der Nachtreiher (Nycticorax nycticorax) ist eine Art aus der Familie der Reiher (Ardeidae) und gehört somit in die Ordnung Pelecaniformes.
Der Nachtreiher ist nahezu weltweit vertreten, er fehlt lediglich in Australasien. Er war ursprünglich auch in Mitteleuropa weit verbreitet, er ist mittlerweile jedoch nur noch im Osten und Südosten Mitteleuropas ein verhältnismäßig häufiger Brut- und Sommervogel.

The black-crowned night heron (Nycticorax nycticorax), or black-capped night heron, commonly shortened to just night heron in Eurasia, is a medium-sized heron found throughout a large part of the world, except in the coldest regions and Australasia (where it is replaced by the closely related nankeen night heron, with which it has hybridized in the area of contact).

Dull and drizzle but always worth going out... male kingfisher
Many thanks to all those who fave or comment always very much appreciated
Finally getting back to the Gym after a lengthy absence.
Fortunately, I still have my “work-out” soundtrack on my phone, and Donovan sang “Catch the Wind” while I was working the machines... and thinking about a title for this Pic.
"Catch the Wind" is a song written and recorded by Scottish singer-songwriter Donovan. "Catch the Wind" was released in 1965. The single reached No. 4 in the United Kingdom singles chart.

The Sandhill Crane:
These tall, gray-bodied, crimson-capped birds breed in open wetlands, fields, and prairies across North America. They group together in great numbers, filling the air with distinctive rolling cries. Mates display to each other with exuberant dances that retain a gangly grace.
The Sandhill Crane’s call is a loud, rolling, trumpeting sound whose unique tone is a product of anatomy: Sandhill Cranes have long tracheas (windpipes) that coil into the sternum and help the sound develop a lower pitch and harmonics that add richness.
Sandhill Cranes are known for their dancing skills. Courting cranes stretch their wings, pump their heads, bow, and leap into the air in a graceful and energetic dance.
Although some start breeding at two years of age, Sandhill Cranes may reach the age of seven before breeding. They mate for life—which can mean two decades or more—and stay with their mates year-round. Juveniles stick close by their parents for 9 or 10 months after hatching.
The earliest Sandhill Crane fossil, estimated to be 2.5 million years old, was unearthed in Florida.
Sandhill Crane chicks can leave the nest within 8 hours of hatching, and are even capable of swimming.
The oldest Sandhill Crane on record was at least 37 years, 3 months old. Originally banded in Florida in 1982, it was found in Wisconsin in 2019.

The fish these guys catch often doesn't seem plausible but after a bit of splashing about down it went in one big 'gulp'!
'Old rubber neck' strikes again!
This photo was taken during a road running event of the half distance of a marathon, which takes place once a year. I was tempted to edit the photo in black and white, but I finally opted for soft tones. I think the similarity of the t-shirts stands out more this way.
Esta foto fue tomada durante una carrera de la distancia de una media maratón. Estuve tentada a editar la foto en blanco y negro, pero al final opté por tonalidades suaves. Creo que la similitud de las camisetas de los corredores se hace más visible.
Another photo I took on the same competition some years ago, which has had over 30,000 views www.flickr.com/photos/marinadelcastell/15800441223/in/alb...
He performed a feline jump and almost managed to catch it. This mysterious visitor had taken one of the swords from his brother's cabin, and he would have run if he hadn't seen a bright reflection out of the corner of his eye. Infamous thief! So he was the one who had taken all the things that had disappeared in the last few weeks! Based on his clothes, he may have been from the town I went to, a month ago, to buy some potions that our healer needed. I felt guilty: he had followed me. He spun around and I found myself coiled in a vise between his legs. I managed to twist one of her hands and it gave enough for her to escape the deadly embrace, but I tumbled down a slight incline. I jumped up… But it was too late. Taking advantage of the fact that he was free, he ran away.
It was easy for me to follow him, because we are track experts and I know my land like the back of his hand, but he was out on the plains before he caught him again. When I came out of the woods he was riding away on a horse that he must have tied up waiting for him. What a frustrating! I only had to notify my queen and take action...
The amazing aerial theatre of Les P'tits Bras
The company Les P'tits Bras, “Bruits de Coulisses”, plunges you into the heart of the Baroque for an illusory performance. The aerial acrobatics are adorned with gilding to better dazzle you. You will see the whimsical and schoolboy; you will shiver with pleasure for a few minuets on wire and other humorous embellishments. You spy on a circus that does not feign its exploits
