No, this Glaucous-winged Gull has not been to a Taylor Swift concert. Those colourful bands are part of the Salish Sea Gull Project which is studying the health and habitat of gulls in the very human impacted Salish Sea (Gulf of Georgia). I took this image at the pier in Crescent Beach, Surrey, B.C. and I reported the sighting to the project.
For Macro Mondays - It's Alive.
The second time I have seen one of these flies, the eyes suggest to me that it is some sort of Horsefly but if anyone can help with the ID I would appreciate it.
Happy Macro Monday!!
This very fancy and elegant mandarin duck drake showed up in Queen Creek, AZ, about 20 minutes from my house. These guys are native to the Far East in places like China and Japan. But colonies exist in both the UK and U.S. from ducks that have either escaped or were released into the wild. I know there are some established in California, and a couple show up in Prescott, Arizona from time-to-time. But it's very rare for the Phoenix area so I was thrilled to have had a couple opportunities to photograph this gorgeous guy. Interestingly, he befriended mallard drake and the two seem to be inseparable.
I don't know what kind of message the artist was sending with this fancy enamel pin, but I think it's perfect for Pride Month 2025.

I shot this one out my window to capture all the light and shadows.
By the ford on the road from Lythe to Ugthorpe, during a week away in the North York Moors.

MERCI à tous pour vos gentils commentaires et votre curiosité. Cette photo a été prise dans le sud de la Nouvelle zélande. On trouve dans la campagne des clôtures comme celle-ci . Je ne sais s'il y a une signification. Peut-être contre le cancer du sein ????
THANK YOU all for your kind comments and your curiosity. This photo was taken in southern New Zealand. In the countryside there are fences like this one. I do not know if there is any meaning. Maybe against breast cancer ????
