I'm off to Copenhagen in the morning to see if I can get a few shots there, so this will be my last photo posted until I get back after the weekend.

 

Have a great week my friends! :-)

I fell out of my bed tonight and followed a photographic and musical impulse.... ;) So I'm back for a photo and a song, perhaps for the whole album....;)

 

Watch and listen with me...

Meet Flatty, she is a beautiful Kookaburra. Every afternoon she sits on the fence and waits for me to call to her. If I don't appear in good time, she calls to let me know she's waiting.

 

When I call her, she flies down to sit beside me to have some food. I call her Flatty because she has a flat head. She also has a dislocated beak which makes it difficult for her to pick up food. So I give her very small portions which I throw to her, even from 15cm away. She catches the food and most times it goes right inside her beak, and that way she is able to swallow it easily.

 

In this shot she's about to launch herself to glide across my yard and set down beside me. Flatty is one of four Kookaburra who live close to my home, they visit almost every day. They're all special, but Flatty is my favourite.

Have a wonderful and peaceful day!

Not for nothin', my permethrin-treated jeans kept the ticks away. Everyone else in the group found multiple blood-sucking critters crawling on them; me not a one. I tried getting a captured tick to crawl on my leg -- it stopped moving and fell off almost immediately. I'll probably be dead in a year from all the chemicals, but well worth it, I say.

This was my first time photographing insects in the rain. The drizzle had just ended when I found this pair of flower flies.

It will come back quite soon. Three months and here we are again. Time flies like crazy. To make every day countable is extremely difficult, as you grow older. How about yesterday? Was it somehow significant? What I was even doing? I don't remember. How about today? Ah, it's autumn again....

I think this is a culicidae could be wrong?

Small, long-legged flies foraging on a flower of the genus Rudbeckia or Ratibida (Asteraceae or Compositae), which are known often as black-eyed susans or coneflowers. I believe that this specimen is Ratibida pinnata, known variously as globular coneflower, pinnate prairie coneflower, yellow coneflower, drooping coneflower, gray-headed coneflower, weary susan, or yellow prairie coneflower.

The low sun at the end of a visit to Yorkshire Wildlife Park at the weekend enabled me to get this image of a relaxed lion and his attendant flies.

Robber Flies are awesome! Photographed in Maryland.

A focus stack of 4 images, shot with the camera hand held. Canon 80D, Canon MPE lens, Canon twin flash, Aperture f/11, shutter speed 1/250, ISO 400.

Flies are so mighty that they win battles, paralyse our minds, eat up our bodies.

In the "spring time" it seems "time flies"

Just a few a forest of Fly Agaric below National Trusts Park Coppice near Coniston in the Lake District.

As always, many thanks for taking the time to view, fave and comment. That's very much appreciated

Time flies over us, but leaves its shadow behind.

My muse is an eccentric mistress. Whilst on holiday, I went out to photograph fishing boats but I came back with photos of flies strolling along a fishing net.

I think the Eristalis are horticola - we can rule out tenax because the hind tibiae are part yellow

Twiggall flies are tiny, just 1/6 inch long. They lay their eggs in the growing tips of aspen twigs. When the eggs hatch, the larvae consume the soft growing tissues. The tree responds by forming a gall, which inadvertently protects the chewing larvae from predators. The galls are small, about 13 mm long and 8 mm wide. But they keep growing, even after the flies escape from the galls. Years later, the tiny galls have grown to lumps and bumps and girdling bands, as seen here.

Two different types of flies and some aphids on milkweed. Sometimes I get lucky and get two different subjects in one photo but I think this might be the first time that I managed to get three different subjects in one photo. Photographed in Maryland.

I took this shot because I found it interesting the way the runner was speeding past the clock with no hands. I was lucky that the elderly lady on her scooter was passing at the same time so that I could also contrast how time flies and ages us all. This was taken in Memorial Park, Basingstoke.

HIHD, Should have had my camera out yesterday two very tiny flys were at it on the window - When down came a spider and I'm afraid yup you guessed it got one! The other thought it had escaped - but in its haste to flee quickly flew straight into the web - At least they went with a smile lol!
