Identification with this species can be difficult as the green colour comes from the dense scales which over time can rub off leaving this weevil body colour looking a lot darker. Can be found from April to July often in common nettles. Its a shame you normally find this in nettles talk about my poor very red stinging nose after I got this, ouch !
I'm often very difficult to see
I like to sit and watch quietly
sometimes maybe up in a tree
often somewhere special . . .
waiting my moment consciously
when I look around here and there
cameras I see from afar and near
don't think I don't notice . . .
for indeed I do
watch your back, sides and front
I'm still active
I might just surprise you !
my legs are crossed my paws too
expression intent
yes I'm watching you
don't be fooled by my elegance too
I'm a quick mover
watch out all of you !

Difficult times ahead , but like the weather the sun will shine again , be responsible , stay safe and take care all my Flickr friends
A difficult year for stag rut in our Fontainebleau forest. Hunting is far too present and especially court hunting, a cruel and traumatic hunt that is still practiced (even though it is prohibited in most countries).
The result is that fewer and fewer animals frequent the forest
The forest loses its soul and its king gradually disappears.
Man is definitely the most dangerous predator on the planet.

in the woods that I regularly visit it is difficult to have sightings of the European Roe Deer during the day from a reasonable distance.
In this specific protected area I had several short sightings this year walking into the woods before dawn.
However, since about 10 days a Wolf ( canis lupus ), looking for a viable territory, has moved into this area .
This is an entirely new situation for the Roe Deer and their behavior is changing.....
In the last week there have been regular daytime sightings just like my encounter last Tuesday deep in these woods.

All of us might wish at times that we lived in a more tranquil world, but we don't. And if our times are difficult and perplexing, so are they challenging and filled with opportunity. Contrast is the spiritual spice of life. It's a foolish mistake to assume that when the going gets tough, the magic must stop. The darkest, most difficult times are the most powerful for manifesting miracles.
As picturesque as it is, I found it very difficult to visit here knowing I had to leave this beautiful spot behind. We visited a number of such spots but I still think this is the “Greatest Little Resting Spot” on my trip. Thanks for viewing my work. Stay kind.

It is often difficult to comprehend and appreciate the size and scale of a glacier until you’ve seen it from the air. Mendenhall Glacier here for example is 13.6 miles long, 3.8 miles wide, around 2000 feet at its deepest, and rises from beneath sea level to over 6200 feet in elevation.
Having seen glaciers from a distance on foot in Iceland, it was a completely different experience to see one via helicopter. We flew over the glacier for several minutes before landing on a flat area for some hiking. A few things that amazed me while flying overhead though was how deep the crevasses were, how insanely blue the ponds of melted glacier water were, and how far the ice field stretched up into the mountains. But most of all, the sheer size of the glacier was just incredible.
The other remarkable thing was the visible path of dirt and sediment that revealed the flow of the glacier as it bent around the curves of the mountains on its way to the sea. The path must have represented decades of movement.
If you ever get a chance to visit Juneau, Alaska the Mendenhall Glacier is definitely worth a visit!
Although my back and spine are making life very difficult for me at the moment, I am at least trying to work shortened hours because otherwise my project will fall on my feet....
That's why I'm going to be very quiet again for the next few days.
Every day a little more, until Friday, when I probably won't be able to do anything at all.
That's how I'm taking it step by step, this difficult road.
I wish you good last Sunday hours 😘

Thankyou in advance for your support, faves, comments and awards!
I do appreciate you all ❤️
I always find difficult to differentiate the butterflies of the Nymphalidae family, I think they have the size but the designs of their wings have for sure tiny differences.
This "señorita" is a West Coast Lady.
This year as was pretty happy to see more butterflies in the backyard without looking for them. They flew all over the place at different hours, and even enjoy the tall grass behind the house.
I'm also glad that collecting butterflies as a hobby has been replaced by photography, since some of them are in danger of extinction. Give yourselves a pat on the back you photographers!!

Photography is one of my passions, and nature photography is my favorite.
I have been in Explore for more that a hundred times, and it is an awesome experience to have your photos showcased in such a special way.
I thank your for coming today, for leaving a comment, and make a favorite of yours this photo, (if that is the case) thanks again!
The best part of this forum is the contacts and friends that I have made over the years, that have the same passion for this art that is called photography!

There are those birds that are difficult to photograph. The Little Grebe, for example, is such a bird. If you come within a distance of 100 kilometers from them, they already submerge, and only resurface on the other side of the earth. If you then focus on them, they dive again to surface on the moon.
So last year I was extremely lucky to encounter a family of two parents and 5 very young hatchlings. Maybe one day old or so, because they looked extremely tiny and they were shaped oval like still being in the egg.
And because the young were not good swimmers yet, the parents stayed close to them and so I had the opportunity to make pictures within ca. 10 meters away.
Next day I went back and stayed another 4 hours trying to get them even better, but already then they were more cautious and whenever they saw me they sneaked away. Still it was a wonderful experience with a lot of nice shots.
Jerry Force is a stunning 7m waterfall in County Durham. UK. Proved extremely difficult to get to. There’s a rather steep bank to get down to it.
I went for the day with www.flickr.com/photos/165181884@N05 and
www.flickr.com/photos/iam_iam/
The guys managed to get down, only just, so I decided to attempt it. The waterfall looked so beautiful, I didn’t want to miss out. Big mistake, I started to slide down on my arse, as I had watched Daniel do the same. It suddenly became a little too vertical for my liking and I managed to grab onto a solid branch sticking out from the ground, and then…froze! Shouted out to the guys, I’ve changed my mind, but I couldn’t move! They had to scramble back up to rescue me! Coming back up they climbed back up a vertical rock face! I managed to get this shot from above, but really wanted to be on ground level. Oh well, next time we go, we take ropes! The things we do for a shot. 😂
Breeding males have obvious white blaze on forehead and broad green slash behind eye. Females are plainer brown with rusty sides. Females are very difficult to distinguish from female Eurasian Wigeon; note colder grayish-brown head on American that contrasts with warmer orangey sides. Also look for brighter white, not gray, underwings in flight, but this can be difficult to judge, especially at a distance. Widespread and common in North America, occasionally wintering as far south as northern South America. Typically in flocks on lakes and wetlands, often grazing in nearby fields. Regular vagrant to Europe. (eBird)

LET'S FACE THE MUSIC AND DANCE – DIANA KRALL
Time is a beautiful illusion
it cannot be quantified
as I sweep away last year's patterns
a residue resides
a little broken fading mosaic
veined with cracks and studded with tears
so small and fragile, I lift it up
and clasp it to my heartfelt fears
it's difficult to let the old ways go
it's hard to step into the new
but it's important to preserve sweet memories
and leave behind those that made me feel blue
Spring is a time for gentle renewal
moving on with life and regrowth
static is a negative charge of apathy
forward motion a positive oath
Softly I whisper my daily mantra
today is the first day of the rest of my life
and knowing this brings me succour and comfort
to my once ailing heart that was wrought with strife
ring out the bells; new change is here
there's a spring in my step; there's no room for fear
for today I begin an exciting new time
making new memories for this soft heart of mine
I put down the tiny fragment that represents broken dreams
cushioned in velvet; swaddled in reams
there it can't hurt me; I go forward; feel free
to walk in the sunlight; the shadows behind me.

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is « single ». So you will understand that Mr. Teddy Bear couldn’t be with us this week since he isn’t single anymore… However, Mr. Teddy Bear has a very good friend who happens to be single: Mr. Dino. That is why he is the hero of today’s picture. Mr. Dino is truly a nice guy but some of his personal characteristics make it very difficult, for him, to find love. First of all, Mr. Dino has a very, very high voice. People constantly call him « madame » while on the phone. He has very short arms which makes difficult to pick stuff from the floor… Also, being blue isn’t appropriate for all the decors… And you surely don’t want to repaint your house at the very beginning of a relationship. Also, he has a very scary looking shadow, which might scare a few potential candidats. All those details are the reasons for Mr. Dino being single. But who knows, maybe after today’s picture he will find love…
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

The tiered building furthest away from the camera is a newish building in the Nine Elms area of London, an area that has been completely redeveloped in the last 15 years. I've been trying to get some decent shots of it for a while now. The problem is that it is fairly well enclosed by other buildings, so difficult to get a clear shot of, and also it needs lots of light to get the best out of it, something that has been sadly lacking on my recent visits to the area. So I finally managed it a couple of weeks ago on a photo walk with some fellow photographers from my Camera Club. This was shot with an old vintage Leica zoom lens which in itself needs a lot of light because it's not the fastest but it is really quite sharp and a surprisingly nice lens for shooting architecture.

This bird is very difficult to approach
I succeeded to make some photos not to far (between 10m and 15m) this time. Thankfully in winter there is no leaf on branches. This time you can see the male.
Cet oiseau est très difficile à approcher j'ai réussi à faire quelques photos de pas trop loin (entre 10m et 15m) cette fois. Heureusement en hiver il n'y a pas de feuille sur les branches. Cette fois, vous pouvez voir le mâle.

It can be difficult to get close to a Northern Shrike. I just really liked this perch and the fading western light on this guy even at a distance.
St. Albert, Alberta.
A difficult high-contrast negative gave me a lot of work to print. The key to success was a somewhat unusual tuning of the sensitiser.
Ammonium iron III oxalate + Silver nitrate each 1 ml.
Additives:
Citric acid 3 drops
Tween 3 drops
Sodium tungstate 2 drops for less contrast
Sodium palladium 1 drop for a deeper brown
and Sodium dichromate 1 drop 0,5% to prevent (Palladium) fogging.
Developer Potassium citrate 0,5% sol. (works a little softer than water).
On the left air dried with a reddish brown, on the right hot pressed in order to reduce the saturation to a less reddish brown.
This non-migratory species is a member of the pheasant family and is more commonly referred to as "Partridge" rather than Ruffed Grouse. They are well camouflaged birds with colouring ranging from a grayish-brown through reddish-browns. This species has the distinction of being the most widespread gamebird in North America.
Anyone spending much time in the bush in spring has heard the telltale "drumming" of the male Ruffed Grouse". This is an act related to proclaiming territory and announcing his presence to females by strutting on a log with his crest raised, his neck feathers erected to create a black "ruff", fanning his tail and beating his wings rapidly to create a drumming sound.
When not displaying it is difficult to identify the two genders.
