Double-crested Cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) are perched in the late afternoon sun at the Leonabelle Turnbull Birding Center in Port Aransas, Texas. The photo was taken 6 years before the Birding Center was heavily damaged by Huricane Harvey. Repair plans are underway.

The Double-crested Cormorant is the most numerous and widespread North American cormorant. It's also the only one that occurs in large numbers inland as well as on the coast. Growing in numbers throughout its range, this cormorant is increasingly being blamed for declines in sport fisheries and for devastating fish farms.
Always impressive to see there in Arches National Park is the pretty Double Arch. Here under cloudy conditions.
The Double-crested Cormorant in breeding plumage! The inside of the Cormorant's mouth turns bright blue during breeding season. This distinctive feature serves as a visual cue to attract mates. Photo taken at Klineline Pond, Vancouver, Washington.

Hier , j'ai été surpris par Roméo .
Juliette couvait tandis qu'il faisait la navette de ravitaillement .
Je n'ai pas fait attention lorsqu'un Grèbe s'est approché du nid .
Tout à coup , Roméo est apparu en l'attaquant furieusement , il est partit sans demander son reste ! C'était un intrus , peut être le survivant de l'année dernière... En tout cas , Roméo reste le roi !
Je n'ai pas vu de deuxième petit , donc soit il est resté dessous , soit le deuxième oeuf était stérile...
Mammoth amounts of noise reduction as the iso was so high due to the fading light. Hence not the greatest detail by any standards. But to get to spend some time in the company of this gorgeous girl was a rare treat ☺️❤️
Aufgrund einer baubedingten Totalsperrung der Main-Weser-Bahn für den Ausbau der S-Bahn-Linie S6 in den ersten beiden Wochen der hessischen Osterferien 2023 wurden durch den Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund zur Abdeckung der Verkehrsströme montags bis freitags zusätzliche Züge als RE 16 zwischen Friedberg (Hess) und Frankfurt (Main) bestellt. Diese aus Lokomotiven der Baureihe 245 mit Doppelstockwagen gebildeten Züge nahmen aber nicht etwa den Weg über Hanau, sondern über die eingleisige Strecke Friedberg (Hess) - Rosbach v d Höhe - Friedrichsdorf (Ts) und dann weiter über die "Homburger Bahn" nach Frankfurt (Main) Hbf. Hier sehen wir 245 018 mit RE 99041 Friedberg (Hess) - Frankfurt (Main) Hbf im Bahnhof Bad Homburg, welchen er ohne Halt durchfährt. Das stattliche Gebäude des Kaiserbahnhofs (Homburg vor der Höhe war eine beliebte Sommerresidenz von Kaiser Wilhelm II.) wurde am 26. Oktober 1907 in Betrieb genommen und bildet eine würdige Kulisse für diesen dort nicht alltäglichen Zug.

Due to a construction-related total closure of the Main-Weser-Bahn for the extension of the S-Bahn line S6 in the first two weeks of the Hessian Easter holidays 2023, additional trains were ordered by the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund as RE 16 between Friedberg (Hess) and Frankfurt (Main) to cover the traffic flows on Mondays to Fridays. These trains, consisting of class 245 locomotives with double-decker coaches, did not take the route via Hanau, but via the single-track line Friedberg (Hess) - Rosbach v d Höhe - Friedrichsdorf (Ts) and then via the "Homburger Bahn" to Frankfurt (Main) Hbf. Here we see 245 018 with RE 99041 Friedberg (Hess) - Frankfurt (Main) Hbf in Bad Homburg station, which it passes through without stopping. The impressive building of the Kaiserbahnhof (Homburg vor der Höhe was a popular summer residence of Kaiser Wilhelm II) was put into service on 26 October 1907 and forms a commendable backdrop for this train, which is not a common sight there.
A group of seagulls in search of food touch passers-by.
I observe the scene, it is a moment, that moment that presents itself.
It's time to exploit it.

Laddie and I are Bobsitting again, I’ve known Bob since he was a pup when he was a playmate of Indy too. He has stayed with us on countless occasions and is always a welcome guest even if he is a bit of a rascal sometimes.
I saw an eastbound move at 44th Avenue that did not appear to stop, and with no route on the Midway Sub, I deduced it was a UP from the Twin Ports going down the St. Paul side. I found a sliver of light at the curve along the Transitway just as the UP came under 280 and was able to get the shot. Three units, with the correct one in the lead, head for the Belt Yard down at the Bluffs.
My Double Delight doesn't have as many flowers as the Rio Samba but it sure is a beauty when it does produce...
Another bird from the archives.
I can usually remember quite accurately where I took any given shot...but the best I can do with this one is that it was in a city park somewhere in Arizona.
Barreling through downtown Waukesha, Wisconsin with hot doublestack train Q198, CN's Elgin, Joliet & Eastern heritage unit, ET44AC 3023, passes L504's power- including OG "J" unit, GP38-2 703. Who in 2008 could have imagined a scene like this?
In the festive season, the Amaryllis are a musts!
A pink one for a change, a bright star!
With stripes and double!
AND, we are well and truly in full communication again!
They speak, I listen, er, with my eyes. LOL
It is said that: Art is Expression of the imagination............
Hippeastrum, these plants are popularly but erroneously known as Amaryllis and are cultivars of bulbous plants in the family Amaryllidacea..
Hippeastrum is a popular bulb flower for indoor growing, it is Greek for "horseman's star" (also known today as "knight's star").
Have a great day thank you for your comments and visits, M, (*_*)

This the same cormorant posted yesterday but taken earlier in the sequence. The young Ring-billed Gull that was resting on the nearby rock was not impressed when the Cormorant came in to dry its wings.
