In this photo meet Mouila and Mahale during feeding time at Sydney's Taronga zoo. A big crowd was there to see two week old Mahale who has only been visible to the public for three days. An excellent talk by the keeper and an amazingly calm mother and baby Western lowland gorillas captivated the crowd. It was great to see so many people interested and was a privelige to photograph these brilliant animals.
Below is some info copied off Taronga's web site:
Mahale the Western Lowland Gorilla:
Taronga Zoo's head Primate Keeper, Louise Grossfeldt, said: "Zoo breeding programs are critical for helping to insure against rapidly declining numbers in African countries where the bush meat trade, poaching and forest clearing continue to threaten the long-term survival of the species.
"Mouila, which means ‘African Fantasy', is our most experienced female. She lavishes attention on her offspring and is also mother of two other females in the group, ‘Kriba' and five year old ‘Mbeli'. The baby was sired by the magnificent silverback, Kibabu."
"We are all exceptionally pleased with the safe birth of this baby. The natural family structure and Kibabu's excellent leadership help us show visitors the remarkable and calm nature of these gentle vegetarians while explaining how important it is to help ensure a sustainable future for these proud apes.
"The infant is the second born into the group this year. Zoo-based breeding groups like Taronga's are increasingly vital following the recent announcement by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) at the International Primatological Society Conference in Edinburgh this month that almost half of the world's 634 primate species face extinction. Ebola Virus alone has reduced wild Western Lowland Gorilla numbers by 90% in some areas.
"This is Mouila's 6th infant and the 14th baby sired by ‘Kibabu', Taronga's impressive Silverback. Kibabu is a close-to-perfect leader and protector and he makes sure the inquisitive juveniles and aunties give the new mother and baby space and settling time," said Louise.

This was a lovely sunny June day, and I decided to go down to my parents' to see them - from outside, of course as they are shielding. My Dad was sleeping though, so I only saw my Mum but it was still lovely. I had a wander around their little garden too whlie I was there, admiring the pond.

Finally, finally, after months of lockdown and only video calls, we have been allowed to join our households as we both live alone, so me and Gemma are now one household. Which meant that I was able to bring her to Hull for a long weekend, give her a massive hug and enjoy her company.
Our first day we went to Flamborough. As it was a weekday there were not many out, and it was pretty cold and windy! But it was amazing to be out and about after so long cooped up, and the scenery at Flamborough is awesome. We had a great day out!
I like this one - the slight overexposure gives the background an almost unreal quality!

Pour noyer le Poisson, Môssieur Dionis organise chaque année un carnaval populaire.
Comme Marine R.N. Trump , il fait appel aux services des équipes de hackers de Vladimir Polonium pour s'assurer d'être élu reine du carnaval.
Alors, trônant fièrement sur son char fleuri, il lance de grandes poignées de poudre de perlimpinpin sur la foule en liesse comme d'autres lanceraient des confettis.

Peaceful Dove
Scientific Name: Geopelia striata
Description: The Peaceful Dove is a small, sturdy dove, with a long graduated tail and wedge-shaped wings. The eye-ring, eye and cere (the soft parts above the bill) are all blue-grey. The upper body is mainly brown-grey, with dark barring. The head and lower throat is a softer grey, with dark scallops. The throat is white and lower body pinkish. The feet are a deep pink. They are usually seen in pairs or small parties, never far from water. The flight is direct, low to the ground and undulating. Their call is very distinctive and is the source of one of their common names, 'Doodle-Doo'. They also may be called the Placid, Zebra or Barred Dove.
Similar species: The Peaceful Dove has a similar shape but is larger than the Diamond Dove, G. cuneata, and is much smaller than the Bar-shouldered Dove,G. humeralis, which has a bronze shoulder patch. They can also be distinguished by their characteristic calls.
Distribution: Peaceful Doves are found in Asia, south Burma and the Malay peninsula, through Indochina to eastern New Guinea and Australia, where it is widespread in the north west, north and eastern mainland. They have been widely introduced to islands.
Habitat: Peaceful Doves are found in open dry woodland with a grassy understorey and the edges of rainforest. In drier areas, they are often in woodland beside rivers, pandanus and vine thickets. They feed on the ground and roost in trees.
Seasonal movements: Peaceful Doves are sedentary, though some seasonal changes in distribution occur in the south and flocks may form briefly in some areas.
Feeding: Peaceful Doves forage on the ground in open, bare areas, in paddocks, beside roads and in gardens. They feed mainly on small seeds of grasses and sedges, and sometimes small insects. They need to drink at least twice a day.
Breeding: Peaceful Doves place their nests in trees or shrubs, including in garden and street trees. They build a small, flimsy platform of twigs, grasses and roots, which is built by both parents. Both parents also feed the young, with 'crop milk' or small seeds.
Calls: A musical 'doodle-doo' repeated often and a loud 'coo-lo-lue'.
Minimum Size: 20cm
Maximum Size: 24cm
Average size: 22cm
Average weight: 54g
Breeding season: August to April
Clutch Size: 2
Incubation: 14 days
Nestling Period: 16 days

Hello! Lucky here!
I've always kept my comments to the barest minimum
because I know you guys don't come here to read my
blather, and I totally understand that, but I just have to
take a moment to say:
Is...
She not...
The...
Most beautiful woman...
In the whole world?
And, trust me, it isn't just on the outside, either.
On the inside, she is kind and loving and
compassionate and intelligent and genuinely
funny and...
I could go on and on and on, adjectives galore,
and none of them adequate.
Then, throw in seductive and passionate and
giving and willing to please and (ahem) "skilled,"
and... well, she can make you feel like you're a
lucky man. Indeed, very lucky.
(You guys have called me that, "Lucky", so
much that it is now my official nickname, lol!)
But I don't feel just lucky. Honestly, I think I am the
lucki-EST man alive.
I'll shut up now; you won't hear from me again
(probably); I'll just let my admiration and wonder
for this woman show through, hopefully, in the
photographs I take. I hope you enjoy looking at
them as much as we do creating them; it's great
fun. And a turn-on, too.
And thank you all for your comments and Flickrmails,
by the way; believe me when I promise that Donna
reads them all and they are all appreciated
Most Definitely, Most Sincerely,
--Lucky

Zebra Finch - this one was gathering nesting material for its nest in a Norfolk Pine.
Scientific Name: Taeniopygia guttata
Description: Zebra Finches are mainly grey, with characteristic black 'tear drop' eye stripes and 'zebra like' black and white barring on the rump and upper tail. The throat and upper breast are pale grey, with fine black barring, and there is a broad black band on upper chest. The sides of the belly are chestnut with many white spots. The remainder of the belly and the undertail are white. The male is distinguished from the female by its chestnut cheek patches, a character that gave the species the alternative name of Chestnut-eared Finch. Both sexes have red eyes and bill. The legs and feet are orange yellow. Young are similar in plumage to the female, except that the clear black and white markings of the head are absent. The eyes are grey-brown and the bill is black.
Distribution: Zebra Finches are the most common and widespread of Australia's grassfinches, found across the Australian mainland, with the exception of Cape York Peninsula and some coastal areas. They are also found in Timor and the Lesser Sunda Islands.
Habitat: Zebra Finches are most commonly found in the drier areas of Australia, living year round in social flocks of up to 100 or more birds. They can be found in a variety of habitats, mainly dry wooded grasslands, bordering watercourses.
Feeding: Zebra Finches feed in large flocks on fallen or ripening grass seeds. Insects may be taken at any time of the year, but are particularly favoured when feeding young. Feeding takes place on the ground, and, unlike some other grassfinches, birds never pull seed heads down with their feet.
Breeding: Zebra Finches pair for life. The female alone selects the nest site, but both birds care for the eggs and young. The male gathers almost all the nesting material, with which the female constructs the loose dome-shaped nest. Birds have also been reported to nest in hollows in the ground, although this behaviour is uncommon. With a time-span of 70 to 80 days from hatching to becoming sexually active, the Zebra Finch is one of the fastest maturing bird species recorded.
Minimum Size: 10cm
Maximum Size: 12cm
Average size: 12cm
Average weight: 12g
Breeding season: October to April, varies depending on rainfall.
Incubation: 14 days
Nestling Period: 21 days

Dusky Moorhen
Scientific Name: Gallinula tenebrosa
Description: The Dusky Moorhen is a medium-sized, dark grey-black water bird with a white undertail. It has a red bill with a yellow tip and a red facial shield. Young birds are much duller and browner than adults, with a greenish bill and face shield.
Similar species: Two other water hen species are similar to the Dusky Moorhen but can be easily distinguished. The similarly-sized Eurasian Coot, Fulica atra, has a white bill and face shield and a red eye. The Purple Swamphen, Porphyrio porphyrio, is much larger and has a distinct purple-blue colouring.
Distribution: The Dusky Moorhen is found from Indonesia through New Guinea to Australia. It is widespread in eastern and south-western Australia, ranging from Cooktown to eastern South Australia and in the southern corner of Western Australia.
Habitat: The Dusky Moorhen is found in wetlands, including swamps, rivers, and artificial waterways. It prefers open water and water margins with reeds, rushes and waterlilies, but may be found on grasses close to water such as parks, pastures and lawns.
Feeding: The Dusky Moorhen feeds in the water and on land on algae, water plants and grasses, as well as seeds, fruits, molluscs and other invertebrates. It will also eat carrion (dead animals) and the droppings of other birds. It does not dive when feeding; its tail is always visible above the water when upended.
Breeding: During breeding season, the Dusky Moorhen forms breeding groups of two to seven birds, with all members defending territory, building nests and looking after young. The shallow platform nests are made of reeds and other water plants over water, among reeds or on floating platforms in open water. Two or more females will lay their eggs in the same nest and all members of the group help to incubate the eggs and feed the young.
Calls: Sharp guttural crowing or harsh shrieks.
Minimum Size: 34cm
Maximum Size: 38cm
Average size: 36cm
Breeding season: August to March
Clutch Size: 5 to 18, usually from more than one female.
Incubation: 24 days
Nestling Period: 28 days

I was trying to capture the beautiful rose petals during sunset time when my sight was drawn towards a harmless, standstill fly sitting on the rose petal. Light was dim as its winter evening in this side of Globe. I used my high ISO setting (1600) to keep a good enough Shutter Speed (1/160). I could take 2-3 shots, hand-held, before it flew
Some technical details of Fly as an Insect
Flies are insects of the order Diptera (from the Greek di = two, and ptera = wings). Their most obvious distinction from other orders of insects is that a typical fly possesses a pair of flight wings on the mesothorax and a pair of halteres, derived from the hind wings, on the metathorax. (Some species of flies are exceptional in that they are secondarily flightless). The only other order of insects bearing two true, functional wings plus any form of halteres are the Strepsiptera, and in contrast to the flies, the Strepsiptera bear their halteres on the mesothorax and their flight wings on the metathorax.
The Diptera comprise a large order, containing an estimated 240,000 species of mosquitoes, gnats, midges and others, although under half of these (about 120,000 species) have been described. It is one of the major insect orders both in terms of ecological and human (medical and economic) importance. The Diptera, in particular the mosquitoes (Culicidae), are of great importance as disease transmitters, acting as vectors for malaria, dengue, West Nile virus, yellow fever, encephalitis and other infectious diseases.
Diptera derive from Mecoptera or a strictly related group. The first true dipterans known are from the Middle Triassic (around 240 million years ago), and they became widespread during the Middle and Late Triassic
