Common Loon prepping for flight. Landing gear down, propulsion engaged, and we have lift off. I was so excited because I’ve never seen a Common Loon so far from the ocean (over 100 miles).

This is the closest that I have ever got to these ducks, as they are usually far out on the lake whenever I see them..

Wikipedia: The common flameback (Dinopium javanense), also referred to as the common goldenback, is a small (28–30 cm), three-toed woodpecker in the family Picidae, found throughout South and Southeast Asia.

 

As shy and secretive birds, common flamebacks are unlikely to be found in urban areas. They live in a variety of habitats, ranging from moist open forests, to scrubs, and mangroves. Although they generally enjoy lowlands, they can reach altitudes of 1700m above sea level in India and in those cases prefer living in pine forests.

 

Their distribution ranges across Southeast Asia, from the Western Ghats in India to the Indochinese peninsula and several of the Greater Sunda Islands.

 

Conservation status: Least Concern

A very obliging bird at Musselburgh yesterday just begging for its photo to be taken

I can't get enough of these beautiful birds when I am fortunate to see them. This photo was taken from a canoe.

 

Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

In Tentsmuir forest this afternoon.

When the rain stopped this morning, I saw this beauty.

This infinite variety of the plumages of these males never ceases to amaze me

More from Linlithgow the other day

Priestcliffe Lees, Derbyshire. This butterfly had settled down on a grass seed head as evening approached. I managed to move a couple of distracting grass stems without disturbing the butterfly. The sun then came out from behind a bank of cloud and roused the butterfly from its rest. a I was fortunate to get a few images of its outstretched wings before it flew away. I struggled to get the whole butterfly in focus unfortunately!
