In this intimate snapshot, we're drawn into the miniature world of Calibrachoa, often affectionately known as million bells. Two dainty blossoms take center stage, their petals a soft fusion of pink and yellow, creating a gentle contrast against the lush green foliage surrounding them.
The flowers are reaching out over a textured gray surface of a patio. This juxtaposition of the delicate organic forms against the hard, man-made background emphasizes the flowers' fragile beauty.
Calibrachoa's resilience is quietly celebrated here, as these blooms continue to offer their cheerful presence even as summer fades. The slightly out-of-focus greenery framing the scene adds depth and a sense of abundance, hinting at the plant's prolific nature.
This image captures a moment of quiet beauty in everyday surroundings, reminding us to pause and appreciate the small wonders that often go unnoticed in our busy lives. It's a visual haiku, speaking to the enduring charm of nature's small miracles.
Many thanks for the visits, faves and comments. Cheers
Whistling Kite
Scientific Name: Haliastur sphenurus
Description: The Whistling Kite is a medium-sized raptor (bird of prey) with a shaggy appearance. It has a light brown head and underparts, with pale streaks, and dark sandy-brown wings with paler undersides. The underwings have a characteristic pale 'M' shape when open. The head and body are relatively narrow and the tail is rounded. The wings are long and well-rounded, with a wingspan of 120 cm to 145 cm. The sexes are similar, but the females are larger. Yong birds are slightly darker above, with paler streaking on head and underbody. They are often seen near water or around farms, soaring in a lazy circling flight pattern.
Similar species: Several other raptors may be confused with the Whistling Kite, including the Little Eagle, Hieraaetus morphnoides, other kites and harriers. These can only be separated by factors such as flight silhouette and style and the overall body shape.
Distribution: The Whistling Kite is widespread over mainland Australia but uncommon in Tasmania, and is also found in New Guinea, the Solomons and New Caledonia.
Habitat: The Whistling Kite is found in woodlands, open country and particularly wetlands. It is also common around farmland, vineyards and anywhere where carrion (dead animals) can be found (e.g. abattoirs, rubbish dumps and roadsides). Prefers tall trees for nesting.
Feeding: Whistling Kites soar above the ground, trees and water to search for prey such as carrion (dead animals) and small live animals such as mammals, birds, fish and insects.
Breeding: The Whistling Kite appears to be monogamous, with some breeding pairs remaining in a territory throughout the year and pairs actively defend the area around a nest. The bulky nest platform is built of sticks in a tall tree and may be reused, growing larger over time. Both sexes build the nest and incubate the eggs (the female does most of the incubation however) and may breed two or three times a year. The young stay with the parents after fledging for about six to eight weeks.
Calls: Loud descending whistle: 'teee-ti-ti'.
Minimum Size: 50cm
Maximum Size: 60cm
Average size: 55cm
Average weight: 770g
Breeding season: July to January in south; March to October in north.
Clutch Size: One to three, usually two.
Incubation: 38 days
Nestling Period: 46 days

Some misguided souls have commented how they're waiting for an order of dynamite to arrive to blow up Killer's bunker! As we all know, this is Indestructible so Killer & Diena figured they'd give out free Diena-Myte brand dienamyte to people to have fun with trying to destroy this private Fort Knocks!

I know I have not replied to any comments or emails and I am so so so sorry :-(
I have a huge project and a tight deadline you guys, I promise to be more regular here once my project is done!
So here is a photo I took about 10 days ago... For the first time I felt really annoyed that I do not have any studio lighting, as it was so hard to capture the movement of the fabric while managing to keep it relatively sharp and as bright as possible. Someday I want to redo this...
Total montage, as the original photo was taken at home, and then the sunset is a picture I took in Bulgaria over a year ago, and the fence or whatever you call that (what is the word for it actually?) was a picture from the Botanical Garden in Chicago.
I liked the original photo of the "fence" a lot too, you can see it at my blog: ilinas.com/magic/?p=51
I also put up there a few other photos from that afternoon - of me, my sis and mom, and the garden... I felt so nostalgic... I really want to go back there this year and spend more time taking pictures of that place!
Thanks for all visits, comments & Favs!
Feel free to follow me in Flickr or support my work, I'm appreciate that!

We went to the Death Valley in California with the goal to experience the sailing stones on the Racetrack Playa at new moon. Before dark we scouted interesting stones on the playa and marked their GPS location. It was very windy at night, and we waited in the car for the wind to die down. It did not. I decided to go out on the playa in this condition; I found the rocks via GPS location. I used a dimmed-down warm-color LED floodlight to illuminate the black night. In addition I used a cold-color headlight from a low vantage point to illuminate the sailing stone.
Sailing stones are a geological phenomenon where rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a playa (dry lakebed) without human or animal intervention. Instead, rocks move when large ice sheets a few millimeters thick floating in an ephemeral winter pond start to break up during sunny days. These thin floating ice panels, frozen during cold winter nights, are driven by wind and shove rocks at up to 5 m/min across the muddy playa. More details.
I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully pulled the curves.

Silvereye
Zosterops lateralis
Identification: The Silvereye is a small bird with a conspicuous ring of white feathers around the eye and belongs to a group of birds known as white-eyes. The Silvereye shows interesting plumage variations across its range. The grey back and olive-green head and wings are found in birds through the east, while western birds have a uniformly olive-green back. Breeding birds of the east coast have yellow throats, pale buff flanks (side of the belly) and white on the undertail. Tasmanian birds have grey throats, chestnut flanks and yellow on the undertail. To complicate this, the birds in the east have regular migrations within Australia and may replace each other in their different areas for parts of the year. Birds in Western Australia have yellowish olive, rather than grey, backs
Location: Silvereyes are more common in the south-east of Australia, but their range extends from Cape York Peninsula, Queensland, through the south and south-west to about Shark Bay, Western Australia. They are also found in Tasmania.
Habitat: Urban, Woodland, Forest. Silvereyes may occur in almost any wooded habitat, especially commercial orchards and urban parks and gardens.
Habitat: The Silvereye can travel great distances during migration, with Silvereyes from the most southerly regions of Tasmania travelling all the way up to Southern Queensland. Birds are seen alone, in pairs or in small flocks during the breeding season, but form large flocks in the winter months.
Feeding: Silvereyes feed on insect prey and large amounts of fruit and nectar, making them occasional pests of commercial orchards. Birds are seen alone, in pairs or in small flocks during the breeding season, but form large flocks in the winter months.
Breeding: Silvereye pairs actively defend a small territory. The nest is a small, neatly woven cup of grasses, hair, and other fine vegetation, bound with spider web. It is placed in a horizontal tree fork up to 5m above the ground. The nest is constructed by both sexes, who both also incubate the bluish-green eggs. If conditions are suitable two to three clutches will be raised in a season.
Songs and Calls: The contact call, a thin “psip”, is given persistently.

Brown Treecreeper
Scientific Name: Climacteris picumnus
Description: The Brown Treecreeper is the largest of Australia's treecreepers. It is mostly pale brown in plumage. Birds of northern Queensland are darker brown. The head, throat and upper breast are pale greyish-brown, while the lower breast and belly are strongly streaked with black and buff. In flight, a buff stripe can be seen in the wing. The sexes are similar, except females have rufous edges to the feathers of the upper breast, while in the male these edges are black. Young Brown Treecreepers resemble the adults, but are duller, have less obvious stripes on the underparts and the lower belly is a pale rufous colour.
Similar species: Other treecreeper species that overlap in range with the Brown Treecreeper include the White-browed Treecreeper, Climacteris affinis, and the White-throated Treecreeper, Cormobates leucophaeus. The White-browed Treecreeper is darker grey-brown with a more distinct white stripe above the eye (edged with red-brown in the female). The eyebrow of the Brown Treecreeper is less distinct and is more buff. The smaller White-throated Treecreeper has much darker upperparts, a contrasting white throat and little or no marks above the eye.
Where does it live?
Habitat: Found in the drier open forests and woodlands, the Brown Treecreeper stays in the same area all year round.
Feeding: The Brown Treecreeper climbs up the trunks and branches of trees in search of food. It probes into cavities and under loose bark with its long downward curving bill. In this way it searches for insects and their larvae. The most favoured insects are ants. Some feeding also takes place on the ground on fallen logs. Sometimes, birds can be seen diving on ground-dwelling prey from a perch in a tree. Feeding normally takes place in pairs or small groups.
Breeding: The nest is a collection of grasses, feathers and other soft material, placed in a suitable tree hollow or similar site. Both sexes build the nest, but the female alone incubates the eggs. Pairs often have two broods during each breeding season. Occasionally, other birds ("helpers") assist the breeding pair with building of nest and feeding the young chicks. Brown Treecreepers are highly sociable birds, living and breeding communally. Each year, the previous year's offspring will remain to help the breeding male feed the female and rear new chicks. Interestingly, it is usually only males which remain to perform this duty.
Calls: The Brown Treecreeper has a loud 'spink' call, which is given either singly or in a series, and normally betrays its presence before the bird is seen.
Minimum Size: 16cm
Maximum Size: 18cm
Average size: 17cm
Average weight: 33g
Breeding season: June to January
Clutch Size: 2 to 3 eggs
Incubation: 17 days
Nestling Period: 26 days

Your comments and favs are appreciated and do not go unnoticed
Here is an interesting one that I am looking forward to exploring some more this year when I am seeing them out again.
At first glance they seem very much like they are intruda signata but after a few different angles of a male it seems not. So I will try my best to capture a load of different images this year.
With so much around we have learned a great deal but it is only a small portion of what we have left to discover.
A lot of people are grossed out or scared of spiders which is a learned behavior. There has been all sorts of great findings in venom. Imagine if one spider yet to be discovered held the keys to eradicating cancer cells? I bet that would change everyone's perspective about them.
I do this Photography for the art side of it and the sharing results and knowledge. Discovering new things is a pleasant bonus that comes with effort and maybe one day I will be able to get out on a few bigger trips where not many have gone but for now the urban parklands and reserves in my town will suffice.

Thanks for the comments, faves and visits
This close-up view of treetops in San Jose, California, showcases the breathtaking transformation of foliage as autumn takes hold. The image is a mesmerizing tapestry of colors, with deep crimson leaves interspersed among patches of golden yellow and lingering green.
The photograph captures the intricate details of different leaf shapes and sizes, creating a complex, layered effect. Sunlight filters through the canopy, illuminating some leaves and casting others into shadow, adding depth and dimension to the scene.
The vibrant red leaves provide striking contrast against the softer hues of the surrounding foliage. This interplay of colors exemplifies the diverse ecology of San Jose's urban forest and the beauty of seasonal change in a Mediterranean climate.
The density of the leaves and branches fills the frame entirely, immersing the viewer in this arboreal wonderland. It's a reminder of the subtle yet profound changes that occur in nature, even within the heart of Silicon Valley. This image invites observers to pause and appreciate the fleeting, exquisite beauty of fall, a visual feast right above our heads in the city's leafy neighborhoods.
La couleur bleue désigne la tendresse, la poésie. L'expression "être fleur bleue" signifie donc "être romantique, sentimental"
Pourtant, la fleur bleue (en allemand die blaue Blume) n’a, au départ, aucun rapport avec l’amour. Cette expression est issue du courant romantique du XIXe siècle. Dans son roman Henri d’Ofterdingen, l’écrivain romantique Novalis présente une fleur bleue comme un passage entre deux mondes : le monde réel chaotique, et le monde spirituel dans lequel l’artiste se réfugie pour fuir la réalité et s’élever spirituellement. Chez Novalis, cette fleur symbolise l’amour absolu qu’Henri porte à Mathilde mais aussi l’union du rêve et du monde réel, qui était un des grands objectifs du romantisme.

Brown Honeyeater
Scientific Name: Lichmera indistincta
Description: The Brown Honeyeater is a medium-small pale grey-brown honeyeater with a distinctive yellow tuft behind its eye. It also has yellow to olive wing patches and tail panels. It is pale grey below, darker olive brown above and has a long curved black bill. Young birds are paler with more yellow colouring and a yellow gape (open bill). It has a fast, undulating flight and is seen either singly, in pairs or small flocks in flowering trees and shrubs.
Similar species: The Brown Honeyeater is similar to the Dusky Honeyeater, Myzomela obscura, in size and shape, but this species is much darker brown and lacks the tuft behind the eye and the yellowish wing patches. It could also be confused with females or young birds of the Scarlet Honeyeater, M. sanguinolenta, or Red-headed Honeyeater, M. erythrocephala, but these are smaller with shorter tails, lack the eye tuft, often have a reddish face and have very different calls.
Distribution: The Brown Honeyeater is widespread in Australia, from south-western Australia across the Top End to Queensland, and through New South Wales on the eastern side of the Great Dividing Range to Swansea in the Hunter Region. It is rarely seen southwards from Lake Macquarie to the Parramatta River, Sydney, but is regularly recorded in suitable habitats such as Homebush Bay and Kurnell in small numbers, and is a vagrant to the Illawarra region. It is found west of the Great Dividing Range in New South Wales to Tamworth and Gunnedah and south-west to Hillston. The Brown Honeyeater is also found in Bali and the Lesser Sundas, Indonesia, Aru Island and in parts of Papua New Guinea.
Habitat: The Brown Honeyeater is found in a wide range of wooded habitats, usually near water. It is often found in mangroves and woodlands or dense forests along waterways. It can also be found in mallee, spinifex woodlands, low dense shrublands, heaths and saltmarshes, as well as in monsoon forests or rainforests in the Top End. It is common in parks, gardens and street trees in urban areas as well as on farms and in remnant vegetation along roadsides.
Seasonal movements: Nomadic or partly nomadic in response to flowering of food plants. Some seasonal movements in parts of its range.
Feeding: The Brown Honeyeater feeds on nectar and insects, foraging at all heights in trees and shrubs. It may be seen in mixed flocks with other honeyeaters. In Western Australia, these include the Singing Honeyeater, White-fronted Honeyeater and the Red Wattlebird, while in the Top End it is often seen with the Dusky Honeyeater. However, it will be displaced at bird feeders by larger birds.
Breeding: During the breeding season, male Brown Honeyeaters defend a nesting territory by singing from tall trees and they stand guard while the female builds the nest and lays the eggs. The small neat cup-nest is made from fine bark, grasses and plant down, bound with spiders web, and is slung by the rim in a shrub, fern or tree at up to 5 m from the ground and is usually very well-hidden by thick foliage. Only the female incubates, but both sexes feed the young. Nest predators include Pied Currawongs, snakes and cats. Brush Cuckoos, Pallid Cuckoos,Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoos and Shining Bronze-Cuckoos will parasitise nests.
Calls: Clear, ringing, musical: 'whit, whit, whitchit'

Cockatiel
Scientific Name: Nymphicus hollandicus
Description: The Cockatiel is an unusual member of the cockatoo family. It is small in size, and has a slender body and long pointed tail, which is more characteristic of the smaller parrots. Its plumage is mostly grey, paler below, with a white wing patch, orange cheeks and a distinctive pointed crest. The male can be identified by its bright yellow forehead, face and crest. Young Cockatiels resemble the adult female, although the young males usually have a brighter yellow face. The Cockatiel is not found naturally in any other country, but is a popular cage bird, second only to the Budgerigar, Melopsittacus undulates. The Cockatiel does not have the screeching voice of many other parrots and may learn to 'speak'.
Distribution: The Cockatiel is widespread throughout mainland Australia, but is uncommon in Tasmania, with only a few sightings being reported to date.
Habitat: The Cockatiel is seen in pairs or small flocks, in most types of open country, usually near water. It is common throughout its range, especially in the north and the more arid inland areas.
Seasonal movements: Throughout its range, the Cockatiel is strongly nomadic, moving around in response to the availability of food and water.
Feeding: Cockatiels feed on a variety of grass seeds, nuts, berries and grain. They may feed either on the ground or in trees, and always in small to large numbers. Cockatiels roost in trees near water and travel from these areas in large flocks to feeding grounds.
Breeding: Cockatiels may breed at any time, in response to suitable periods of rain, especially in the more arid regions. Both sexes share the incubation of the eggs, which are laid in a hollow, high up in trees. Suitable trees are either in or close to water. Cockatiels enter the nest hollow tail first.
Calls: Although mostly silent, the Cockatiel gives a long and distinctive "queel-queel" in flight. It does not have the screeching voice of many other parrots and may learn to 'speak'.
Minimum Size: 30cm
Maximum Size: 33cm
Average size: 32cm
Average weight: 90g
Breeding season: Normally July to December in south of range
Clutch Size: 2 to 9, usually 5
Incubation: 19 days
Nestling Period: 30 days
