Raining, windy and cloudy, driving along the local highway, all of sudden appeared the double rainbow, I was shocked by the nature miracle… Stopped the car on the side of the road, luckily I had the wider lens on my camera, I could capture the whole double rainbow, I also could ran to the different views, the double rainbow seemed following me… it disappeared in about 10 minutes… My camera was soaked with rains…
Such a pleasant surprise to see that the British Wildlife Centre has rescued more Stoats!!
The easiest way to tell a stoat (Mustela erminea) from a weasel (Mustela nivalis) is the tail. A stoat's tail is around half the length of its body and ends in a bushy black tip. A weasel's tail is short and stubby by comparison and solely brown in colour.

Elitist or Entitled? which am I? I’m not sure where I fall…Hum let me see what the dictionary says:
Entitled- Definition….believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
"his pompous, entitled attitude"
Elitist- Definition……..demonstrating a superior attitude or behavior associated with an elite.
"some that say he is a spoiled, elitist snob"
Neither sounds like a camp that I’d want to be in.
The motives for withholding locations are far ranging from “save the location”, to “save the animals” to “save the unprepared from themselves” undisclosed locations…….secret places, are we elitists or are we entitled? Those that cherish the outdoors have seen the ramifications of location over saturation, and they “are” concerned. Of course, it’s because these are the most beautiful places on Earth and they would like to see that future generations can enjoy them as well. Doesn’t sound bad to me? The problem than lies within the human spirit, the spirit to set out and seek what’s out there, to see and feel and smell it with our own senses and take in the scene in all it’s natural glory. If your an inhabitant of this planet than it’s you’re right to see it, of course it is!! The real problem is the person that just purchased a camera and has never been outside the city in his or her life, do i want to give out a location that I shot in the backcountry of the Grand Tetons? If I want to eliminate them than Yes, they would be grizzly scat by morning. But If I’m concerned for their safety or the preservation of the location than NO. How am I to decide who gets a location or not, by deciding am I than elitist? Man and his devices have traveled into the far reaches of this galaxy and beyond and found no solid evidence of life, and the fact that we have been on this planet for just the blink of an eye makes me think that this planet is a gift more than it is a privilege.
IMHO, This planet belongs to every human being but it is a gift and not a privilege!!! does that makes me elitist or just concerned? If you have no outdoor experience than please prepare yourself to see it safely and responsibly. :-)

... for a hot and peaceful Sunday!

For 'Looking Close on Friday', the theme is 'Small Animals with Wings'
I posted a photo of Paulina Falls a couple of weeks ago from our time in Oregon. It only showed one of the falls, that I took from an overlook. Here are both the falls. We had to walk down a dangerous switch back trail covered with slippery bits of hard snow to get to this point, my sherpa carrying my gear :) No accidents or injuries, which was good :)
Zoom in and take a look around....
West African slender-snouted crocodile (Mecistops cataphractus) found in the forests of equitorial West Africa and are hunted for foods and hides. San Diego Zoo.
Conservation status: Critically Endangered
Their bright orange head and bill make them a standout among other ducks. We were so excited to photograph two at once. The Common Merganser is a fish-eating duck that rides low in the water on freshwater lakes and rivers. The female Common Merganser has a solid gray body with a reddish-brown head. She has a narrow, red, serrate bill and white chin-patch at the base of the lower mandible.
This is such an elegant mirror that is quite proportional to the room it is in! Have a wonderful Sunday.
