Being a gondolier is not all glory and admiration. It takes strength and a strong determined set of arms to navigate the canals, the lagoon and the basin which all surround Venice.

I edited this quite a bit as the original was taken on a very gloomy day in Venice. Fun to see what can be created with all the tools on Aviary!

I was hiking in a remote jungle and came onto a small opening where two bears were fighting, probably for territory. For a while they did not notice me and I was shooting in long bursts. Eventually, they turned their attention to me and I had to run real fast. ... Just kidding. Of course it's a zoo.

Bison (play)fighting at Tower Junction in Yellowstone National Park. Yes, not a zoo. You can really be this close to them (which is really not as close as it seems here)

large herds of Spotted Deer live in the grassland areas in Panna Tiger Reserve.

There were frequent rutting calls and one morning we were able to observe some intense battles between stags.

Pure street theater. Two old men arguing – one raising his arm and the other responding. In the background, the everyday city: the attention to the everyday gesture that becomes epic.

Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.

Susiekins is not happy about cheeky neighbour Lu and the two started to bear their teeth and claws even with the glass barrier dividing them.

I just love the 'Referee' in these fights

Many thanks for taking time to view, comment and fave. Thats very much appreciated

Territorial fights become more and more a scene in the local basin. Pictured here two Trumpeter Swans did just that when suddenly one decided the other one got too close. Luckily there was no sore loser at this time, and it ended very quickly as well.

It may seem like you are in a dark hole, but soon the light will shine and you can fight your way though

As a person that adores a bit of action, moorhens and coots are gold lol

Its in the worst battle that you learn the most.

Go get it, fight for it, you deserve the light to come back.

I went through 2.5 litres of sunflower hearts today.

Space on my two seed feeders was at a premium and squabbles were frequent.

The smaller Siskin was the aggressor but the Brambling wouldn't be bullied.

Just 30 minutes in the hide today but it was action packed :)

As I waited for the fog to clear somewhat for another photo, I saw this silver birch tree behind me. Love how it's given itself a fighting chance to grab some sunlight from underneath the canopy of pine trees. I guess I'm rooting for it (pun well and truly intended).

that gnaws at all of us

We don't exist without light.
