I couldn't get them all together but there was 7 Monarch on the wild bush at one time. Several were close but hidden behind foliage. Happy Day to all and Thanks for any faves or comments (;-D
Beautiful double daffodils from the park. Bought this lens years ago very cheap- Sigma 15mm F2.8 EX DG, now practicing a little. This week I'm trying to use my old lenses and will wake up my 5D Mark III that has been sleeping for years.
Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!
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....
the crowned eagle (stephanoetus coronatus) is a lifer sighting.
to find a couple is a real privilege.
for years I was haunted by the dream to meet the most powerful african eagle.
a bit smaller than martial eagle is considered stronger and surely more aggressive than the savannah cousin.
crowned eagles are now rare and always elusive.they stay usually hidden and hunt in the forest like a huge goshawk.those raptors prey mainly on mammals of medium /big size (till small antelopes of 30/40kgs) ,monitors and sometimes big birds but....they are specialized on monkeys.monkeys have pratically 4 hands with opposable fingers and it means they can damage the vital feathers of the predator before to die.
this is why the crowned eagle is equipped with incomparable weapons.
two opposable talons are very big and large.the eagles use it to pierce the skull of the prey to kill it instantly.
crowned eagles are famous to be also cooperative hunters, this is why my title ,"double trouble".
shot at big distance,bad light(almost backlight) ,duplicator and high iso.....next time will be better:-)

Running the rocks on the Little Susitna River calls for skill, as it is rated as class five due to the rocks and fast drops. Have been away without internet, hope to be around soon. Have a great week!!
This is such an elegant mirror that is quite proportional to the room it is in! Have a wonderful Sunday.
Another shot of one of the pretty mountain lakes of Macun. It's a rather longish hike, all in all, but I can't wait to go there again.

Azure-shouldered Tanager - Not globally threatened. Currently considered Near-threatened. Occurs mainly inside humid forest and is less able to utilize forest edge and second growth than are most others in the genus, a factor that has contributed to its severe range contraction and fragmentation following deforestation. Believed to be in decline. Possibly occurs in only relatively few areas outside protected sites. birdsoftheworld.org/bow/species/azstan1
Happy Blue Monday!

Because of their shape, Double Late Tulips are also known as peony-flowered tulips. The flowers, which are always large and double, can easily reach a span of 4 in. across (10 cm). Some cultivars are sweetly fragrant. Blooming in late spring, these tulips introduce charm and romance in the garden with their multi-petalled flowers! ...
The gangly Double-crested Cormorant is a prehistoric-looking, matte-black fishing bird with yellow-orange facial skin. Though they look like a combination of a goose and a loon, they are relatives of frigatebirds and boobies and are a common sight around fresh and salt water across North America—perhaps attracting the most attention when they stand on docks, rocky islands, and channel markers, their wings spread out to dry. These solid, heavy-boned birds are experts at diving to catch small fish.
I've done these so many times in the past with some success, but this one was particularly difficult - wore me out! So I cropped and stopped ;D
Best viewed by zooming in - shows all the layers :)

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.
The world is like a book and those, who do not travel, only read the first page.
If you only visit 2 continents in your lifetime, visit Africa, twice.
