A widely distributed duck species, it is often considered uncommon in our region. We see it often but always far from camera range to get any shots. This is far less common than the Lesser Whistling Ducks which we are seeing in 100's these days.

 

The bird is a medium sized duck and has a whistling kind of call. Fulvous describes the color (reddish-yellow). They are often confused with Lesser whistling ducks which are seen throughout the year in our region. However, Fulvous Ducks have white markings on both sides of the tail area, a grey patch around the neck, and the eye ring is grey compared to yellow for the Lesser Whistling ducks. These are thought to be nocturnal ducks and active at nights.

 

While at the grassland during the weekend, more than 500 birds (these + Lesser + Spot Billed ducks + Swamphens + Ibises) all flew suddenly filling the sky much to my joy. I waded into the ankle deep waterlogged fields and wondered if I caused that - though I was skeptical. After 10 mins, found the answer, a Red Necked Falcon was hunting and it caught a babbler. It must have been nesting in the area and caused these ducks to take flight while doing a pass.

 

Thanks in advance for your views and feedback - very much appreciated.

Wrong place on map. Does anyone know how to change the location.

 

Surprisingly I’ve seen only one robin in Florida since I came here from Illinois. This American Robin was photographed near the lodge where I stayed just outside of Zion National Park, Utah. The robin had just finished eating a fresh worm out of the ground.

 

The American robin (Turdus migratorius) is a migratory songbird of the thrush family. It is named after the European robin because of its reddish-orange breast, though the two species are not closely related, with the European robin belonging to the Old World flycatcher family.

 

The American robin is widely distributed throughout North America, wintering from southern Canada to central Mexico and along the Pacific Coast.

 

According to some sources, the American robin ranks behind only the red-winged blackbird (and just ahead of the introduced European starling and the not-always-naturally-occurring house finch) as the most abundant extant land bird in North America. It has seven subspecies, but only T. m. confinis of Baja California Sur is particularly distinctive, with pale gray-brown underparts.

 

The American robin is active mostly during the day and assembles in large flocks at night. Its diet consists of invertebrates (such as beetle grubs, earthworms, and caterpillars), fruits, and berries.

 

It is one of the earliest bird species to lay eggs, beginning to breed shortly after returning to its summer range from its winter range. Its nest consists of long coarse grass, twigs, paper, and feathers, and is smeared with mud and often cushioned with grass or other soft materials. It is among the first birds to sing at dawn, and its song consists of several discrete units that are repeated. Wikipedia

 

A widely distributed very long-legged wader in the avocet and stilt family. The scientific name comes from the Greek meaning 'strap foot' or 'thong foot. In some regions it is also called the Pied Stilt. They are great fun to watch and walk gracefully with delicate but long steps. They have the longest legs proportional to their size of any bird. Its long slender bill is used to snatch at tiny insects in the air and amongst the surrounding vegetation.

The common raven or northern raven is a large all-black passerine bird. It is the most widely distributed of all corvids, found across the Northern Hemisphere. There are 11 accepted subspecies with little variation in appearance, although recent research has demonstrated significant genetic differences among populations from various regions.

Erebia aethiops

 

The Scotch Argus is widely distributed in central and eastern Europe, but is absent from Ireland, Spain, Portugal, western France, peninsular Italy, Scandinavia and the Mediterranean region. Its range extends to northern Turkey and across temperate Asia to western Siberia.

The sexes are virtually identical on the upperside - males have a large patch of dark androconial scales on the forewings, but this can only be seen under certain lighting conditions. The underside hindwings of the male are dark reddish brown, with a broad grey post median band. In females the ground colour beneath is a paler earthy brown, banded with olive.

In mainland Europe there are several other Erebia species which closely resemble aethiops. These include ligea, euryale, medusa and triaria. The various species can be distinguished by examining the number and configuration of the ocelli. The patterns on the undersides also differ. A good field guide is essential for determination.

There are no similar species in Britain, although aethiops could be confused in flight with the Ringlet Aphantopus hyperantus. The Arran Brown Erebia ligea is similar to aethiops but has prominent white markings on the underside hindwings. It was allegedly found in Scotland in the 19th century, but all records are regarded as highly dubious - unfortunately early entomologists often made false claims about the butterflies they collected, habitually importing European specimens and claiming they had captured them in Britain.

Very widely distributed, breeding from Australia to Spain and Morocco, with the northern extent of migratory breeders extending to northern Russia and Mongolia. Migratory over much of the Eurasian range, predominately wintering in sub-Saharan Africa. Present year-round in the Indian subcontinent eastwards through Myanmar, Lao PDR, Viet Nam, Cambodia and northern Thailand, China, the Republic of Korea, DPR Korea and far south eastern Russia; also Japan, Sulawesi and the Lesser Sundas (Indonesia), Papua New Guinea and Australia. Birds are seen on passage through central and southern Thailand and the Malaysian Peninsular, indicating that a proportion of birds in the eastern range are also migratory.

The genus Leptophobia comprises of 20 currently known species. Three of these have only recently been discovered ( 2000-2003 ) and are as yet unnamed.

 

Most Leptophobia species are white or cream coloured on the upperside, with dark brown or black margins, but these vary in extent from species to species.

 

All Leptophobia are high altitude species, and are variously distributed from Costa Rica to Bolivia and Argentina.

 

Leptophobia aripa is native to Mexico, Central America and South America, but strays may be found as far north as southern Texas.(Wikipedia)

The great egret (Ardea alba), also known as the common egret, large egret, or (in the Old World) great white egret or great white heron is a large, widely distributed egret, with four subspecies found in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and southern Europe. Distributed across most of the tropical and warmer temperate regions of the world, it builds tree nests in colonies close to water.

 

The great egret is generally a very successful species with a large and expanding range, occurring worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats. It is ubiquitous across the Sun Belt of the United States and in the Neotropics.

 

In North America, large numbers of great egrets were killed around the end of the 19th century so that their plumes could be used to decorate hats. Numbers have since recovered as a result of conservation measures.

 

Its range has expanded as far north as southern Canada. However, in some parts of the southern United States, its numbers have declined due to habitat loss, particularly wetland degradation through drainage, grazing, clearing, burning, increased salinity, groundwater extraction and invasion by exotic plants. Nevertheless, the species adapts well to human habitation and can be readily seen near wetlands and bodies of water in urban and suburban areas.

 

The great egret is partially migratory, with northern hemisphere birds moving south from areas with colder winters. It is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies.

 

The great egret feeds in shallow water or drier habitats, feeding mainly on fish, frogs, small mammals, and occasionally small reptiles and insects, spearing them with its long, sharp bill most of the time by standing still and allowing the prey to come within its striking distance of its bill, which it uses as a spear. It often waits motionless for prey, or slowly stalks its victim.

Distributed throughout England, Wales, Ireland and south-east Scotland, Moorhens avoid high ground. British and Irish Moorhens are sedentary, occupying their lowland habitats year-round. In winter the population is swelled by birds migrating here from the Continent. (BTO).

Very late in the season for tornadic supercells but we had some this day. Good Friend and fellow Chaser Myles Nelson, it was his birthday. So to celebrate we had to get a game plan on.

 

Night before there was none predicted for any severe storms, but mother nature had different plans. Waking up, and checking the morning model scans we had a much different story. We planned accordingly and things panned out for us to follow the first storms to pop to the east of Hastings Nebraska.

 

This cell packed to early punch but eventually faded out by Bruning Nebraska. Luckily the 2nd cell we had been monitoring just to the south of Hastings was maturing and had the all the right stuff. We scooted west to get into position. Then via Hwy 14, just south of Nelson Nebraska was our first TVS marker, and a scans showed a decent hail core developing. We were in luck as this storm was building and maturing fast.

 

Once this first event was on top of us, we positioned south and east of Superior Nebraska via Hwy 8 to do it again. Where we met up with several other chasers that were on the hunt. Good to see good friends again as this cell was again in a maturing stage producing come incredible cloud to cloud and cloud to ground lightning.

 

Eventually we had to punch through the core via west of Superior as we again head south into Kansas via Hwy 14. East of Mankato Kansas we ran into the 3.5 inch hail core next to Formoso Kansas and we had to stay ahead of this to stay out of the core. North of Courtland Kansas the cell was on our tail and we were in the notch. Surreal cloud structure could be seen as we had pushed east.

 

West of Scandia we ended up in a Tornado Warning was it had push up right against us. A Train had blocked out route east and it got a little never racking. Though the train eventually passed an we were able to escape the worst part of the storm. Ending up just to the west of Scandia Kansas were we experienced 3 inch hail. I have a few new dents but we decided wisely not to go any further due to the rain rapped tornado in this storm. Got by a building and had some protection from the winds and hail.

 

It was the end of the video's chase day and another tale to tell in my storm chasing adventures for 2019!

The sand lizard in my dauther's hand. We met him (or her) near the small garden of my mother-in-law :)

 

The sand lizard (Lacerta agilis) is a lacertid lizard distributed across most of Europe and eastwards to Mongolia. It does not occur in the Iberian peninsula or European Turkey.

As juveniles they are usually brown with two light brown lines on the top of the flanks, on the flanks they have light spots bordered by a dark colour. Male adults are usually green on the flanks and a brownish back with smaller black markings and lighter scales inside of these black markings, the tail is brown and hind limbs also. Females are more brown, on the flanks they have various dark markings also with a lighter dot or two inside of this dark patch. Sand Lizards can reach up to 25 cm (10 in) in length. This species can be found in a wide range of habitat types including meadows, heathland, coastal dunes, grassland, steppe, subalpine and alpine meadows, shrubland, hedgerows, open woodland, in alpine areas, traditionally managed agricultural land and rural gardens. It appears after hibernation in March in the North, in March - April in the South and at mountains.

Jaszczurka zwinka w ręku mojej córci. Spotkałyśmy ją w okolicach działki mojej teściowej :)

 

Jaszczurka zwinka (Lacerta agilis) – gatunek jaszczurki z rodziny jaszczurek właściwych. Występuje na większości kontynentu europejskiego poza jego południowymi krańcami. Na zachodzie granicą jej zasięgu jest środkowa Francja. Na północy spotkać ją można nawet w centrum Półwyspu Skandynawskiego. Jej wschodnie siedliska sięgają po środkową Rosję. Występuje również w Turcji i zachodniej Azji. Zwinka preferuje siedliska nizinne. Najczęściej można ją spotkać w niskiej trawie, wygrzewającą się w słońcu. Jest bardzo ciepłolubna. Maksymalna długość ciała w Polsce dochodzi do 25 cm. Samca można odróżnić od samicy po tym, że ma on zielonkawe podbrzusze, czasem nakrapiane drobnymi plamkami, zaś samica ma szary lub kremowy spód ciała. W okresie godowym, czyli w maju, samce przybierają intensywną zieloną barwę. Młode zwinki po wykluciu się, podobnie jak młode innych jaszczurek, są znacznie ciemniejsze niż osobniki dorosłe. Jej ogon jest nieco dłuższy od tułowia. W sytuacji zagrożenia zostaje odrzucony jako przynęta dla drapieżnika. Z czasem odrasta do pierwotnej długości.

The barasingha (Cervus duvaucelii), also called swamp deer, is a deer species distributed in the Indian subcontinent. Populations in northern and central India are fragmented, and two isolated populations occur in southwestern Nepal. It is extinct in Pakistan and in Bangladesh.The specific name commemorates the French naturalist Alfred Duvaucel.

 

The swamp deer differs from all the Indian deer species in that the antlers carry more than three tines. Because of this distinctive character it is designated barasingha, meaning "twelve-tined." Mature stags have 10 to 14 tines, and some have been known to have up to 20.

 

In the 19th century, swamp deer ranged along the base of the Himalayas from Upper Assam to the west of the Yamuna River, throughout Assam, in a few places in the Indo-Gangetic plain from the Eastern Sundarbans to Upper Sind, and locally throughout the area between the Ganges and Godavari as far east as Mandla.

 

Swamp deer are mainly grazers. They largely feed on grasses and aquatic plants. They feed throughout the day with peaks during the mornings and late afternoons to evenings. In winter and monsoon, they drink water twice, and thrice or more in summer. In the hot season, they rest in the shade of trees during the day. - Wikipedia

 

The cheer pheasant (Catreus wallichii), also known as Wallich's pheasant, is a vulnerable species of the pheasant family, Phasianidae. It is the only member in the genus Catreus. The scientific name commemorates Danish botanist Nathaniel Wallich.

The cheer pheasant is distributed in the highlands and scrublands of the Himalayas region of India, Nepal, Kashmir, and Pakistan. They are found mainly in the west of Nepal, Kumaon, Garhwal, Tehri Garhwal, Simla States, Bussahir, Kullu, Chamba till about the Hazara District. Surveys in 1981 and 2003 in the Dhorpatan area of western Nepal established 70 calling sites, suggesting substantial numbers exist in this area (about 200 birds). In another survey in 2010, cheer pheasants were detected in 21 calling sites in Kullu district of Himachal Pradesh. They are found mainly above 6000 feet altitude and up to 10000 feet in summer.

Conocybe rugosa is a common species of mushroom that is widely distributed and especially common in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. It grows in woodchips, flowerbeds and compost.[2][3] It has been found in Europe, Asia and North America.[2][3] It contains the same mycotoxins as the death cap mushroom. Conocybe rugosa was originally described in the genus Pholiotina, and its morphology and a 2013 molecular phylogenetics study supported its continued classification there.[4]

 

Description

Conocybe rugosa has a conical cap that expands to flat, usually with an umbo. It is less than 3 cm across, has a smooth brown top, and the margin is often striate. The gills are rusty brown, close, and adnexed. The stalk is 2 mm thick and 1 to 6 cm long, smooth, and brown, with a prominent and movable ring. The spores are rusty brown, and it may be difficult to identify the species without a microscope.[5]

 

Toxicity

This species is deadly poisonous.[6] They produce alpha-amanitin, a cyclic peptide that is highly toxic to the liver and is responsible for many deaths by poisoning from mushrooms in the genera Amanita and Lepiota. They are sometimes mistaken for species of the genus Psilocybe due to their similar looking cap.

The European Kingfisher or Common Kingfisher, Alcedo atthis, is widely distributed in Europe, Africa, and Asia. It is resident except in northern areas where the rivers freeze. It will then move to milder regions. In most of its European range it is the only kingfisher.

The general colour of the upper parts of the adult bird is bright metallic blue, cobalt on the back, and showing greenish reflections on the head and wings. The ear coverts and under parts are warm chestnut, the chin and sides of neck white.

The bill is blackish and reddish orange at the base; the legs are bright red with a dark blue stripe. In the young the bill is black. Length averages 19 cm (7.5 inches) and wings average 7.5 cm (2.95 inches).

The flight of the Kingfisher is rapid, the short rounded wings whirring until they appear a mere blur. It usually flies near the water, but during courtship the male chases the female through and over the trees with loud shrill whistles.

From February onwards the male has a trilling song, a modulated repetition of many whistles. He also signals with a whistle to the female when he is feeding her, this being his share of the nesting duties. This whistle is produced even when his bill is loaded with food, yet is clear and distinct. The female will reply and emerge from the nesting hole, and may fly to meet him, take the fish from him in the air, and return to the nest.

The bird has regular perches or stands from which it fishes. These may be a few inches or many feet above the water. It sits upright, its tail pointed downwards. It drops suddenly with a splash and usually returns at once with a struggling captive.

Large fish are beaten on a bough or rail; small fish and insects are promptly swallowed. A fish is usually lifted and carried by its middle, but its position is changed, sometimes by tossing it into the air, before it is swallowed head downwards.

I love the light of the setting sun and I like the finality that it presents to the day. It is the light of activity fading into the stillness and finality of night. Much like the deserted homestead on the prairies whose time in the light is over as its existence fades into the evening sun.

The Pied Kingfisher (Ceryle rudis) is a species of water kingfisher widely distributed across Africa and Asia.

The Pied Kingfisher has, as its name suggests, black and white plumage. The male has a black crest and crown, a white stripe above its eye, a larger black stripe across the eye as far as its neck, and a white throat and collar. Its upper parts are black, edged in white, giving a mottled effect and its rump has black and white streaks. The wing coverts have white spots. The underparts are white, with two lines of fine black bars, the upper being wider and usually broken in the middle. The bill is black and long and looks like a dagger. The eyes are dark brown and the feet and legs are blackish. The female has just one breast band, which is narrower than that of the male. The tail is white and somewhat long, its median tail feathers and tips being black, and it fans out in flight.

 

This beautiful Pied Kingfisher was photographed on a boat ride in the waters of Lake Baringo, Kenya.
