See previous photo. A female black-chinned hummingbird does a back-flip to get distance from the Yellow jacket crawling on her chest.
Despite being tightly strapped down to the ground, this small aircraft didn't fare nearly as well as the seagulls during the storm! I think it was a total loss and I saw it being disassembled today.
...not perfectly focussed but I like the motive very well. After that shot my accu was empty :-(. Hope you like it anyway! Comments and favs are very appreciated.
Also known as the snake bird or water turkey, the anhinga is a year-round resident of Florida. It is also found from coastal sections of South Carolina westward to Texas and Mexico, and even south to Argentina.
Like cormorants, anhingas do not have oil glands for waterproofing their feathers and the feathers get wet when they are swimming.
You can often spot the anhinga perched on a branch with wings outstretched, drying feathers. They feed on small fish, shrimp, amphibians, crayfish and young alligators and snakes. The fact that their feathers are less water resistant than other birds helps them to swim underwater, where they often spear fish with their long neck and sharp beak. They surface in order to flip their catch into their mouth for consumption.
Mating generally occurs in February with egg-laying occurring throughout the spring and early summer. Nests are built in shoreline trees 15 to 20 feet high.
I found this one along Peavine Road in Osceola County, Florida.

Chairs and Benches
This is yet another new series of photographs this time about Chairs and Benches with a few other seating items thrown in.
They can be Regal, Practical, Ultra Design items, Art Installations, used for Potty Training. They can even be vehicles of Execution. They hold immense power and none at all. From the densest populated cities, to the most remote parts of the world. Usually sturdy; reliable; honest; comfortable; often filled with people. People talking, sleeping, with their phones, eating, climbing to reach other items, feeding birds, making love and every scenario one can think of.
The imagination can run riot over the most important conversations that have taken place on them, what they could tell you if they could, what they would tell you if they wanted too. As usual I hope you enjoy what I have posted and this is the first of many……….
The pond was so still, the reflection was clearer than the trees, so I flipped this photo. It's upside down. The colors were so intense, I actually amped down the color saturation a touch. At Storm King Art Center, Mountainville, NY -- November 4, 2018
