Contour terracing controls erosion on this farm

Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve, BC

A spectral Christmas Eve walk at Ivinghoe Beacon.

Despite knowing this walk so well, there were a couple of moments when I lost my bearings in this blanket of fog.

A lot of the farmers around here introduced 3 metre conservation strips around their fields a number of years ago. The idea is to encourage the return of the many endangered species of farmland birds that declined following the introduction of intensive farming techniques. Certainly it seems to have worked with good populations of Skylarks, Meadow Pipits, Yellowhammers and Corn Buntings at this location. Not that I saw any in this pea souper!

In Aug of 2018....The IUCN has up-graded this EVENING GROSBEAK from least concern to VULNERABLE statues.. (One step closer to "Endangered".)

One of the Highland ponies brought in for conservation grazing at SWT Montrose Basin. Masquerading as a Unicorn by walking in front of the fencepost. (Only noticed the fencepost when loading to laptop, so 0 out of 10 for composition at the time!)

Furry Friends....

 

One November morning I ventured out quite early, it was very cold; typical for this time of year. i noticed a squirrel busy collecting and stashing his horde of nuts for the long winter ahead. he stopped his frantic behavior for just long enough for me to take this photo. then he was off at a frenetic pace scurrying about on his merry way.

Just west of St. Louis, Missouri is a group of lakes called the Busch conservatino area. This is the most photographed of the lakes, Lake 33.

Rochester Michigan puts initiatives in place to protect trees and preserve green space throughout the city.

 

This gives us access to beautiful parks and streams like the "Paint Creek" shown here flowing through the Rochester Municipal Park.

Visited what I would consider to be the most beautiful conservation area I've ever been to in Southern Ontario. If you're willing to trek up the rather steep slopes to the top of the limestone escarpment, you are treated to this magnificent view of the Eramosa River and surrounding countryside. Reminds me very much of Georgian Bay.

 

Thank you, my kind Flickr friends, for visiting my site and taking the time to leave a comment. Truly appreciated!

Rough Bank. July 2023.

 

A small, widespread butterfly that occasionally visits gardens. Females are similar to Brown Argus, which lack blue dusting near the body, and to female Adonis Blue, which have dark veins extending into white fringe on wing edges. The male Chalk Hill Blue is paler and, apart from the Large Blue, larger than other blue butterflies seen in Britain and Ireland. (Butterfly Conservation).

 

My thanks to anyone who views, faves or comments on any of my photos. It is much appreciated.

Photographed the American Tree Sparrow on the Tamarack Nature Trail in the Hersey Lake Conservation Area located in the Township of Tisdale in the City of Timmins in Northeastern Ontario Canada.

On the southern side of the St Helens Conservation Area is an extensive area of tall sand dunes. Four Wheel driving is allowed in one area but from what I could see they do manage to get to the area near the entrance to Beer Barrel Beach (which is allowed) plus other areas. The dunes are soft and tall with some of the sand covered in grass and other successional vegetation further to this shot. There is a fairly steep drop off to the native bush behind the photo.

The sand dunes are home to some endangered Plovers who nest closer to the beach.

I was only able to go part of the way along the various tracks as I didn't have a 4WD vehicle and was on my own without phone coverage. parks.tas.gov.au/things-to-do/four-wheel-driving-(4wd)/peron-dunes

One of Dayton's Five Rivers Metro Park conservation areas. The 416 acres have a bike hike trail, ponds and some small marshes. Busy place the other morning.

4501 and 4306 roll into Platform 1 at Central station with an eclectic mix of carriages being transferred from long term storage in the open at Broadmeadow to secure undercover storage at Chullora.

The older I get, the more I appreciate the easy trails of this nature conservancy.
