I discovered a new nature reserve not far away where I got my first glimpse of this species of damselfly. They are incredibly delicate looking, with an almost metallic sheen.

Changeable Hawk-Eagles breed in the Indian Subcontinent, mainly in India and Sri Lanka, and from the southeast rim of the Himalaya across Southeast Asia to Indonesia and the Philippines. This is a bird occurring singly (outside mating season) in open woodland, although island forms prefer a higher tree density. It builds a stick nest in a tree and lays a single egg.
The Changeable Hawk-Eagle is a medium-large raptor at about 60–72 centimetres (24–28 in) in length. It is a relatively slender forest eagle with some subspecies (especially limnaetus) being dimorphic giving the name of "Changeable". This, and also a complicated phylogeny further complicates precise identification.
Normally brown above; white below with barring on the undersides of the flight feathers and tail; black longitudinal streaks on throat and chocolate streaks on breast. Some subspecies have a crest of four feathers, but this is all but absent in others. The sexes are quite similar in their plumage, but males are about 15% smaller than females. The underparts and head of juveniles are whitish or buff with few dark streaks.
The wings are long and parallel-sided, and are held flat in flight, which helps to distinguish this species from the similar Mountain Hawk-Eagle. In overhead flight, comparatively rounded wings (upturned at tip), longish tail, white body (spotted with brown) and grey underside of wings (streaked and spotted) are leading pointers.

Description: 2014-04-13 - The image was taken last Sunday as on the last minute I decided to make my way to Darul Quran in Kuala Kubu Baru which is approximately 1 hour drive from Kuala Lumpur. Arriving a bit late, I quickly deployed my gears in place and Alhamdulillah this was the 1st frame of 900 frames I took for my time lapse session. Do visit my Vimeo or Youtube profile for the timelapse later.

CAT:
La Mare de Déu del Lledó és la Patrona de Castelló de la Plana.
El nom Lledó prové de la traducció al valencià del nom almez, que és l'arbre sota el qual es va trobar la petita figura que avui és venerada com a Mare de Déu del Lledó.
Segons la llegenda, un agricultor, anomenat Perot de Granyana, va trobar la imatge mentre llaurava les seves terres. Perot duia l'arada conduïda per dos bous que, a l'acostar-se a l'arbre, van deixar de llaurar i es postraren sota aquest. Perot no va fer cas dels bous i els va aixecar, però estos van tornar a postrar-se davant l'arbre. Perot, estranyat, es va posar a buscar els motius, va furgar i va trobar una petita figureta de la Mare de Déu.
Perot va dur la figura a la ciutat per a ensenyar-la a les autoritats. Però com era ja tard, la figura hauria de passar la nit a casa de Perot. Al matí, quan aquest anava a ensenyar la imatge a les autoritats, es va trobar amb que la figura no es trobava en la seva casa. Va anar a buscar-la a l'hort, i la va trobar en la mateixa posició que la primera vegada. Va insistir i la hi va tornar a dur a la ciutat.
Al matí següent va tornar a desaparèixer. El Consell va prendre per boig a Perot, però el va seguir fins a l'hort. Allí es van trobar la figura envoltada d'àngels. Davant aquest miracle, el Consell Municipal va decidir edificar en el lloc de la troballa una petita ermita gòtica.
ESP:
La Virgen del Lledó (en valenciano Mare de Déu del Lledó, y traducción cercana al castellano como Virgen del Lidón) es la Patrona de Castelló de la Plana.
El nombre Lledó proviene de la traducción al valenciano del nombre almez, que es el árbol bajo el cual se encontró la pequeña figura que hoy es venerada como Virgen del Lledó. El nombre Lidón no es una traducción correcta, pues debería ser Virgen del Almez.
Cuenta la leyenda que un agricultor, llamado Perot de Granyana, encontró la imagen mientras labraba sus tierras.
Perot llevaba el arado conducido por dos bueyes que, al acercarse al árbol, dejaron de labrar y se postraron bajo éste. Perot no hizo caso de los bueyes y los levantó, pero éstos volvieron a postrarse ante el árbol. Perot, extrañado, se puso a buscar los motivos de la parada, escarbó y encontró una pequeña figurilla de la Virgen María.
Perot llevó la figura a la ciudad para enseñarla a las autoridades. Pero como era ya tarde, la figura debería pasar la noche en casa de Perot. Por la mañana, cuando éste iba a enseñar la imagen a las autoridades, se encontró con que la figura no se encontraba en su casa. Fue a buscarla al huerto, y la encontró en la misma posición que la primera vez. Insistió y se la volvió a llevar a la ciudad.
A la mañana siguiente volvió a desaparecer. El Consejo tomó por loco a Perot, pero le siguió hasta el huerto. Allí se encontraron la figura rodeada de ángeles. Ante este milagro, el Consejo Municipal decidió edificar en el lugar de la troballa una pequeña ermita gótica.

Life is but a brief journey through time. The Awe of the Grand Canyon makes us pause and ponder the real scale of time. A true beast of nature, the climate, has had it up’s and Downs: Hot periods, Cold periods, Glaciers to Floods, Tropics to Mountains, and, Today, here sets one of the great testaments to those violent periods in the evolution of Earth.
Mans existence is but a blink in the vast time scale of Earth. And yet, from her violent past, she leaves us this great spectacle so we may glimpse her troubled past.

A shot with a soundtrack in the comments
Well its never dull in Hull as you know
I spent the last weekend listening to a wide variety of new music as the 2019 New Music Biennial arrived in Hull. A total of twenty new works by a variety of composers were held at various venues in the city . Whilst most of the music was at the serious end of the spectrum and inside buildings . This piece was just a bit of fun as a fleet of seven ice cream vans call out to one another. The vans, each with their own individual harmony, weave in and out of each other to create a mesmerising symphony of different clustered sounds. It was created by Dan Jones who is a multi award-winning composer and sound designer working in film, television and theatre. The vans toured the estates of Hull which must have been quite surprise .
If you live in up market locations you might never have seen one of these incredibly tacky vans. I remember as a kid you could hear the vans coming down the street usually playing Greensleeves for some reason. I would have to try and beg thruppence of my mother to go and buy a cornet
A short video the first I have posted on flickr including sound is available at the top of the comments
As was the case in 2017 the 2019 New Music Biennial is being held in Hull and London. The New Music Biennial 2019 is a PRS Foundation initiative that supports and provides a platform for talented organisations and music creators who are pushing the boundaries of new music in the UK. It creates a world class programme of commissions, performed across the UK, broadcast by BBC Radio 3. New Music Biennial presents new music across all genres, from classical and chamber opera, to jazz, folk and electronic. We aim to reach new audiences for contemporary music and encourage ideas for short works no longer than 15 minutes duration which could be performed in a range of settings. A great deal of the music can be heard on the Radio 3 website

...from a visit to Buckley's Hole, Bribie Island. (Buckley's Hole Conservation Park is situated in the south-west corner of Bribie Island, the northern-most sand island in Moreton Bay, some 50 kilometres north of Brisbane. The park covers an area of 87.7 hectares and contains a freshwater lagoon, woodland, open forest and beach. It is this diversity of habitat that has led to such a large number of bird species being recorded in this small area, the present total standing at 270.)
Laughing Kookaburra nesting in a burrow excavated in an arboreal (tree-dwelling) termite mound.
Scientific Name: Dacelo novaeguineae
Description: The Laughing Kookaburra is instantly recognisable in both plumage and voice. It is generally off-white below, faintly barred with dark brown, and brown on the back and wings. The tail is more rufous, broadly barred with black. There is a conspicuous dark brown eye-stripe through the face. It is one of the larger members of the kingfisher family.
Similar species: Identification may only be confused where the Laughing Kookaburra's range overlaps that of the Blue-winged Kookaburra, Dacelo leachii, in eastern Queensland. The call of the Blue-winged Kookaburra is coarser than that of the Laughing Kookaburra, and ends somewhat abruptly. The Blue-winged Kookaburra lacks the brown eye-stripe, has a blue tail and a large amount of blue in the wing, and has a pale eye.
Distribution: Laughing Kookaburras are found throughout eastern Australia. They have been introduced to Tasmania, the extreme south-west of Western Australia, and New Zealand. Replaced by the Blue-winged Kookaburra in central northern and north-western Australia, with some overlap in Queensland, although this species is more coastal.
Habitat: The Laughing Kookaburra inhabits most areas where there are suitable trees.
Feeding: Laughing Kookaburras feed mostly on insects, worms and crustaceans, although small snakes, mammals, frogs and birds may also be eaten. Prey is seized by pouncing from a suitable perch. Small prey is eaten whole, but larger prey is killed by bashing it against the ground or tree branch.
Breeding: Laughing Kookaburras are believed to pair for life. The nest is a bare chamber in a naturally occurring tree hollow or in a burrow excavated in an arboreal (tree-dwelling) termite mound. Both sexes share the incubation duties and both care for the young. Other Laughing Kookaburras, usually offspring of the previous one to two years, act as 'helpers' during the breeding season. Every bird in the group shares all parenting duties.
Calls: The chuckling voice that gives this species its name is a common and familiar sound throughout the bird's range. The loud 'koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-kaa-kaa-kaa' is often sung in a chorus with other individuals. The Laughing Kookaburra also has a shorter 'koooa The Laughing Kookaburra is not really laughing when it makes its familiar call. The cackle of the Laughing Kookaburra is actually a territorial call to warn other birds to stay away.
Minimum Size: 40cm
Maximum Size: 45cm
Average size: 42cm
Average weight: 340g
Breeding season: August to January
