last light on the scafells. lovely colour after a somewhat dull start. always worth hanging around just to see what happens.

The Typha family has 30 species. They are perennials that grow in wetlands. When they are ripe, the heads disintegrate into a cottony fluff from where the seeds disperse by wind. Cattails are also called bulrushes, reedmace, or just reeds.

There are so many beautiful things in nature, you only have to stop and take a closer look.

... me with the Crevice...

Our Daily Challenge - November 22, 2016 - "Tool"

A crevice tool is just the thing for getting pup-fluff out of all the things that pup-fluff flits, floats, and finagles its way in, under, and around.

(Am I the only one thinking Ghost Busters?)

This little thing came flying out a bush to take a nut from me. I think it was a baby, (Bit early in the year). It was happy to let me lay next to it, feed it, and take some photos 😎 (I was so close to it I had to change to a 30mm macro lens)

If you are able to watch these birds long enough they present many different opportunities. This one I captured when he got all fluffed up. Not exactly sure why has he did not have any opportunities for bathing but I was glad to see his beautiful feathers from a different angle.

Wishing you all a beautiful and blessed day !!!!

California Quail. Best Viewed Large On Black These birds have a curving crest or plume, made of six feathers. If startled, these birds explode into short rapid flight, called "flushing". Given a choice, they will normally make their escape on foot. They can run very fast and are fun to watch. Flying seems to be a straight flight A to B, and constantly bounce off of my windows.

Valentino the Kookaburra was looking after Ernie, today again. So, he sat on the neighbours roof and followed his grandson's every move around our garden.
