Red-tailed Hawks bear a determined, if not scowling visage. They are a handsome and successful species, and I wish we had one around our place to help out with the mousing.
I think the partially obscuring branch adds to this image. I hope to show that this is not just a photo of a species, but of a unique being in the world.
Photo from Davis County, Utah.
This stump was an ancient white cedar. They cling to these cliffs and have been determined to be 600-800 years old. Although protected in this conservation area there is ample evidence along the cliff of those who have succumbed to the elements in this harsh and very exposed location.

Merci à tous pour vos gentils commentaires et favoris.
C’est l’un des plus grands et des plus beaux papillons de la faune de France. Il n’y a guère qu’avec le flambé que l’on peut le confondre.
Papilio est le mot latin pour papillon, et machaon fait référence à deux frères médecins grecs ayant participé à la guerre de Troie. En effet, Linné qui a déterminé et nommé cette espèce avait pris l’habitude de donner des noms de personnages grecs aux papillons, ses successeurs ont fait de même.
En anglais il se nomme « swallowtail », la queue d’hirondelle, c’est aussi le nom qu’on lui donne en Suisse.
It is one of the largest and most beautiful butterflies in the fauna of France. It is only with flambé that it can be confused.
Papilio is the Latin word for butterfly, and swallowtail refers to two Greek medical brothers who fought in the Trojan War. Indeed, Linnaeus who determined and named this species had taken the habit of giving names of Greek characters to butterflies, his successors did the same.
In English it is called "swallowtail", the swallowtail is also the name given to it in Switzerland.
Thanks a lot to my friend Dheeraj for his patience and co-operation.

"Still I Rise"
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise.
-Maya Angelou-
"One Billion Rising is the biggest mass action to end violence against women (cisgender, transgender, and those who hold fluid identities that are subject to gender-based violence) in human history. (The reality that): 1 in 3 women across the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. That’s ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS. Every February, we rise – in countries across the world – to show our local communities and the world what one billion looks like and shine a light on the rampant impunity and injustice that survivors most often face. We rise through dance to express joy and community and celebrate the fact that we have not been defeated by this violence. We rise to show we are determined to create a new kind of consciousness – one where violence will be resisted until it is unthinkable."

Muore Alfonso II, ultimo duca degli Estensi e i territori del Ducato di Ferrara passano allo Stato Pontificio. Nel frattempo il Delta del Po avanzava verso nord con rami di Tramontana, di Levante e di Scirocco.
Il Po di Tramontana, in particolare, cominciò con i suoi sedimenti ad alzare i fondali della laguna verso Chioggia.
1600-1604
Per timore che l'espansione a Nord-Est del Delta andasse ad interrare la laguna di Venezia, agli inizi del 1600 il Po fu deviato a sud verso la Sacca di Goro con un canale artificiale che è il suo letto attuale. Questo intervento detto "Taglio di Porto Viro", determinò l'inizio della formazione del Delta moderno.
Il vecchio letto divenne un canale navigabile, il Canal Bianco-Po di Levante. Se prima del 1600 il Delta si espandeva di circa 53 ettari l'anno, dal 1604 al 1840 si passò a 135 ettari l'anno.

1598
Alfonso II, the last Duke of the Este family, dies and the territories of the Duchy of Ferrara pass to the Papal State. In the meantime, the Po Delta advanced northwards with branches of Tramontana, Levante and Scirocco.
The Po di Tramontana, in particular, began with its sediments to raise the depths of the lagoon towards Chioggia.
1600-1604
For fear that the north-eastern expansion of the Delta would bury the Venice lagoon, in the early 1600s the Po was diverted south towards the Sacca di Goro with an artificial canal which is its current bed. This intervention called "Taglio di Porto Viro", determined the beginning of the formation of the modern Delta.
The old bed became a navigable canal, the Canal Bianco-Po di Levante. If before 1600 the Delta expanded by about 53 hectares a year, from 1604 to 1840 it increased to 135 hectares a year.

For more than a century, beginning in 1855, the North Point Lighthouse stood tall, overlooking the water and beaming out its light to protect and guide ships and watercraft. Keepers and their families lived and worked at the North Point Light Station, ensuring that the bright light was broadcast through fair weather and foul. It symbolizes a time in our history when waterways were the highways between cities. Lighthouses facilitated water travel and commerce on Lake Michigan, throughout the Great Lakes and beyond.
It has recently been restored to its early 20th century charm through the determined efforts of a group of committed volunteers.

For some reason, people have been telling me what they think of me recently. I've had scary (x2), determined, disciplined, amiable, enthusiastic and anally retentive. Don't I sound like a barrel of laughs 😂 Here I employed determination to get out of bed at 1:30am 😁
Don't think I've posted this one before, the wider view from my amazing morning on Latrigg.

I'm still trying to outsmart this tenacious individual who raids our bird feeders. They're quick learners and realising that beyond me shooing it away it doesn't have a lot to fear so waits until I'm a couple of meters away and scampers behind the shed, onto the fence and to the top of the conifer hedge where it waits for me to go back inside and then quickly returns for another feed while I'm not looking.
Unfortunately, here in the UK they are considered a pest because they have displaced the native red squirrel in all but a few places. The grey's are often infected with squirrel pox which they are resilient to, unfortunately the disease is fatal to red squirrels and it is this factor which has decimated our red squirrel population. Shame because they are entertaining to watch.
Determined to prolong their summer, the little men decide to take a stand against the setting sun.

Thank you everyone for shining your light and making my summer that much brighter! Let's keep having adventures and showing the world the power of love and kindness!
Hello to all my Flickr friends. As many of you know, just over a year ago my beautiful wife Marilyn had a stroke. Her road to recovery has had its ups and downs. Last February, she came home from the rehab hospital in a wheelchair, but by late spring she was able to walk short distances with the aid of a walker. She was gaining strength and more independence with each passing day. Unfortunately, this past November she had two falls, with the second one putting her back in the hospital. But again, her strong determination has resulted in her fighting through the pain as a result of the falls, and the limitations caused by the stroke. Another Christmas and New Year day in hospital, but she will be home soon. I took this photograph over forty years ago when I was shooting and developing black and white film with my Canon 35 mm SLR camera. I love her look of determination, which has been one of her qualities ever since I’ve known her. This determined spirit has been very strong over the course of this past year.
For all of us, this past year has been difficult, but we must always look forward to the New Year and tackle any challenges, good or bad, that come our way. So, to all of you, a very Happy and healthy New Year.
My participation on Flickr will continue to be limited in the coming new year, but hopefully by the summer I will return on a more regular basis.
The film that I used for this photograph was Kodak Tri-X pushed to 1600 ISO using Diafine developer to process the negatives.
These guys were so unfazed by me that I had to stand back to get them in the frame.
I got so many portrait shots it is impossible to choose a favourite.
The hoodie is an amazing bird so full of character.
