One of my favourite beach birds.
Unusually this one was on it's own.

This little fellow is an expert in his field! A Grey Squirrel that loves peanuts. How does a Squirrel in this part of the country grow up to know that this is something good to eat. The Peanuts don't grow locally, so someone must have taught them that they are good!
Some photography expert told me that a few years ago - always turn round and look behind you - you may get a totally new perspective. Well - never more true here. We were facing east and mesmerised by the amazing sunrise in front of us and getting off a few shots. I turned round 180 degrees to face west and luckily witnessed this incerdible sky reflecting the sunrisee
No great back story to this guy, but here’s what I got:
Sewage worker of 2275 turned to his true calling, as a drone operator. His new profession has him working on the dark city streets of Mirai No Toshi, as a Skill For Hire (a more respectable way of saying mercenary). Frequently shipping out as surveillance for inner-city contraband trafficking, Don has a growing library of skills and efficiencies.
His moral compass is solid, as far as SFHs go, and he refuses to have anything to do with human trafficking. When he can, he’ll sabotage missions of the sort due to his distaste for the business.
Harboring dozens of drones, he can hold his own if necessary, though he prefers not to over exert his use of his resources unless it is absolutely required.
AS OF 2/23/19 I intend to start posting more. I just finished up my finals for this last trimester, and I’m currently transitioning between rooms in my house. I’ll probably post a picture of my new set up (nothing impressive) and hopefully I’ll start posting weekly if not twice a week. The main reason for not posting often is a combination of being really tired once I get all my homework out of the way, and also just being too damn lazy. It’s not even that I don’t get to do things with LEGOs, because I do almost every day, it’s just I don’t have a new photo set up or even anything worth posting. Hopefully that will change.
More posts coming soon! Keep it chill, dudes!
"The Golden Knights are made up of several expert teams and skilled professionals who all play a critical role in the US Army’s success. This includes parachute teams, aircraft pilots, and even those behind-the-scenes handling jump logistics. Whether jumping out of planes going 120 miles per hour from 12,500 feet or landing with expert precision, they embrace the thrill of adventure and feel proud while doing it."
I snapped this photo shortly after this freefall parachuting tandem team jumped out directly under the midday sun. With a 1000mm focal length and atmospheric haze, sharpness was not to be, but to my delight, I captured part of the sundog and its rainbow.
Needless to say, their skills were amazing!
May each one of us take inspiration this Memorial Day from the patriotism of the brave soldiers who died for our country!

Alpine Chough / Alpendohle (Pyrrhocorax graculus)
My first sighting of the awesome Alpine Chough! This was one of a pair that I was pleasantly surprised to see hanging out for a few minutes on the rooftop of the solitary "Grubighütte", situated ~1800m up the at the top of the Grubigstein mountain - just next to the famous 3000m Zugspitze.
Other than their chosen environment, they can be told from other crows by their red legs and slim, downturned bills.
Alpine Choughs are high mountain experts, and are thought to nest at a higher altitude than any other bird. Their eggs are adapted to the thin atmospheres, enabling improved oxygen uptake and reduced water loss. (Wiki)
A white stork efficiently dispatching an eel - apparently their favourite food - on the Ria Formosa at Ludo. The eel was found, killed and swallowed in well under a minute.
I was fooled when I first saw this, thinking it was a real dragonfly.
(Dedicated to my old E-410 ... a great introduction to Olympus cameras).
Sus fecas son muy ácidas y los árboles en que anida suelen secarse razón por la que en algunos países son declarados plagas y su erradicación por cualquier forma es permitida. Una pena.
