Every time I've seen a Night-heron it was in the daylight. That may be because I've never hiked in swamps at night : -)

 

Night-herons will hunt in the daytime or at night. This Yellow-crowned Night-heron was seen in the deep shadows at Audubon's Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary, in southwest Florida.

Short-eared Owl

It was a fantastic day for photographing the owls. There were four of them at the back of the Wildlife Drive putting on a show for everyone. Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge in Galloway, NJ.

This is the only time of year these plants look pretty. Here's what the Internet says

The fruit of prickly pears, commonly called cactus fruit, cactus fig, Indian[8] fig, nopales[9] or tuna in Spanish,[10] is edible, although it must be peeled carefully to remove the small spines on the outer skin before consumption. If the outer layer is not properly removed, glochids can be ingested, causing discomfort of the throat, lips, and tongue, as the small spines are easily lodged in the skin. Native Americans, like the Tequesta, would roll the fruit around in a suitable medium (e.g. grit) to "sand" off the glochids. Alternatively, rotating the fruit in the flame of a campfire or torch has been used to remove the glochids. Today, parthenocarpic (seedless) cultivars are also available.

In Mexico, prickly pears are often used to make appetizers, soups, and salads through entrees, vegetable dishes, and breads to desserts, beverages, candy, jelly, or drinks. The young stem segments, usually called nopales, are also edible in most species of Opuntia.[9] They are commonly used in Mexican cuisine in dishes such as huevos con nopales (eggs with nopal), or tacos de nopales. Nopales are also an important ingredient in New Mexican cuisine.

Opuntia contains a range of phytochemicals in variable quantities, such as polyphenols, dietary minerals and betalains. Identified compounds under basic research include gallic acid, vanillic acid and catechins, as examples.[14] The Sicilian prickly pear contains betalain, betanin, and indicaxanthin, with highest levels in their fruits.[16]

In Mexican folk medicine, its pulp and juice are considered treatments for wounds and inflammation of the digestive and urinary tracts.[17]

This fox grew up next door. Its daily path became predictable.We were hidden in the garage to get a closeup and she heard us breathing, stopped, and looked over. Then we snapped this shot. This turned out to be about the last time she appeared in daylight, hunting in nighttime now nightly.

Sunflower at home this morning. The variety is Evening Sun. 😁

I took this in Denali State Park, Alaska / part of Mt. McKinley is in the clouds to the far right in this photo

Inviting you to start your day with blue skies, a glass of cold juice and a cup of coffee. Look out the window and see the World right before your eyes looking back at you. Our days are usually quite busy but we try to find a few moments in the day to appreciate our lives and give three examples of what we’re grateful for on that day.

When daylight wakes us, the black of night disappears, the beautiful colors and shades of the morning can bring a smile to our faces. As birds begin to chirp they search for their daily nourishment for themselves and their baby chicks. Spring is when change comes about and gives us plenty of enjoyment. Gratitude and Kindness happens in all seasons. Enjoy your seasons yearly.

Wonderful Wednesday to you.

“who knows if the moon's

a balloon, coming out of a keen city

in the sky--filled with pretty people?

(and if you and I should

 

get into it,if they

should take me and take you into their balloon,

why then

we'd go up higher with all the pretty people

 

than houses and steeples and clouds:

go sailing

away and away sailing into a keen

city which nobody's ever visited,where

 

always

it's

Spring) and everyone's

in love and flowers pick themselves”

 

― E.E. Cummings, Collected Poems

I love the way tulips come in different colours and shapes and how they still follow rhythms of opening and closing each day even when in a vase indoors.

This pretty little guy was spotted by my daughter whilst we were on a countryside walk at about 4.30pm. Neither of us had seen this one before or had any idea what it was. Frustratingly, I couldn't find it on the web as with it being so hairy we thought it was a daytime moth.

Many thanks to Nick Brischuk for helping out on the i.d. :))

Tawny owl with owlets.

Folkparken, Norrköping, Östergötland, Sweden

Yesterday I posted a very-similar picture of evening grosbeaks on a feeder. This is the Ghostbusters-style remake, with ladies* instead of dudes!

 

It's fine, but probably not as good as the original.

 

(*these could be juvenile males... I asked, but their English is even worse than my Grosbeakanese)

The dark hours of night possess an attraction or beauty all its own. A star filled sky, a blue moon or clouds passing in front of the moon thus blocking a beautiful moonlit night. “Daytime Beauty” surrounds us with gardens, seascapes, tall majestic trees and the like. Gardens liven or days, our moods and even our conversations. Gratitude and Kindness are present in nighttime and “Daytime Beauty.” Thanks for viewing my work.
