Georgina is featured in this clip, she doesn't appear to like tour helicopter noise, they run up and down the coast. She did come rather close to me I was prepared with bear spray, fortunatley not required. This day I was shooting by myself so I'm sure she was a little more comforatble than pervious days.

One of the 1,000+ flock of mixed cowbirds, blackbirds and grackles that touched down at my feeders this afternoon
Male Bearded Tit / Reedling feeding on the frosty reed seeds. He was pretty close here, just a bit further than my MFD. Increased the aperture to f/8 to try and get a bit more DOF. Can't think of any more 3 letter acronyms to include here.

It’s early for crocus, but they are starting up just the same. They are always the first around here, though there are lots of other Spring flowers right behind them. We typically get carried away planting bulbs.
This is true macro, 1:1. Because it is so close, shooting something as deep as a crocus, which is over an inch from the edge to the bottom of the center, it takes numerous photos to get adequate depth of field. It took 39 exposures, stacked in Helicon Focus, to make this image. Otherwise, the depth of field would be so shallow I could not possibly get more than a tiny bit in focus. A close look at a tiny crocus.
I don't think that the small screens of our mobile devices do a justice to this photograph... just an observation ;-)

Seems the higher up in altitude I go the closer to heaven I feel! This special spot just seems SO CLOSE!

TENDER - Outside

Hold on a minute
I don't want to go outside
I don't want to face my pride
There's a limit to how long I can wait
To how long I can take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself
I've been waiting so, so long
But here we are now
Here we are now
I will judge myself
Guilty of loving you too much
I will smother you just to feel your touch
I will offer you my whole self, not just my best
You can take me as I come or discard me like the rest
Take me by the hand
And show me to the world
I am nothing but a man
You are nothing but a girl
Oh, how long can I take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself
Hold on a minute
I don't want to go outside
I don't want to face my pride
There's a limit to how long I can wait
To how long I can take before I start to show
How close I am to letting go of myself

This beautiful Doe came so close to me and my wife yesterday, I have never been this close to a wild fallow deer before! Such a beautiful encounter with this absolutely stunning animal. The experience of getting close to wildlife without causing any stress to the animal is more important than getting the photograph. These experiences are the ones which last in my memory forever.
We've had a few spins around the sun, Lynn and I, and I honestly can't think of what I'd rather do on New Year's Day then head outside together on a cold and snowy day to enjoy the moment. Well..... maybe when it's a bit warmer, but this is a pretty close second.
La foto no és meva, és de la Núria. Però m'agrada molt i li he demanat. Està feta des de dins el cotxe, en algun lloc de l'Empordà . Era un dia molt ventós i els núvols eren magnÃfics.
He tocat una mica les corbes per donar-li un aire una mica retro.
CSX train Q371-19 barrels down the Philadelphia sub as they are a few miles out from Bayview yard. I got to the crossing with about 10 seconds to set up and take picture, luck was on my side. On this day CSXT 8908 is leading with two other locomotives in tow. It’s nice to see an EMD product leading every now and then around here.
Nine Stones Close, also known as the Grey Ladies, is a Bronze Age stone circle located near Youlgreave in Derbyshire. It sits within a local prehistoric landscape that includes Bronze Age barrows and settlement enclosures, and is part of a tradition of stone circle construction that spread throughout much of Britain, Ireland, and Brittany during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages, over a period between 3300 and 900 BCE. The purpose of the monument is unknown, although archaeologists have speculated that the stones represented supernatural entities.
It is uncertain whether there were originally nine stones, one theory being that nine is a corruption of 'noon', said to be the time when, according to local folklore, fairies would gather at the site to dance.

Anna's Hummingbird
Henderson, Nevada
The Anna's Hummingbird (Calypte anna) is a dazzling, jewel-like bird native to the western United States, Mexico, and parts of Canada. Known for their iridescent plumage, the males sport brilliant metallic pink or red throats, known as gorgets, which shimmer in sunlight. Their heads can also display a vibrant pink crown, while the rest of their plumage is primarily green and gray. Females and juveniles lack the vivid head coloring but still have hints of iridescence on their throats.
These birds are small, measuring about 4 inches (10 cm) long with a wingspan of 4.7 inches (12 cm), yet their energy and agility are extraordinary. Anna's Hummingbirds are famed for their high-speed flight, including acrobatic dives during courtship, where males can reach speeds of nearly 50 mph (80 km/h).
Adaptable and vocal, they emit a sharp, metallic "chip" and a high-pitched whistle. They are frequent visitors to flowers, feeders, and gardens, sipping nectar with their long, specialized beaks and tongues, while also preying on tiny insects for protein. Unlike many hummingbirds, Anna’s Hummingbirds can stay in one area year-round, even in cooler climates, thanks to their ability to enter torpor—a state similar to hibernation—on cold nights.
