Four images taken at the same location (Upper Whiston, Rotherham) during the course of the past 12 months. Not quite the four seasons. Clockwise from the top left, these were taken in February, April, March and June.
FOUR ELEMENTS is the Topic for Saturday December 3th, Group Our Daily Challenge
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
today the sun actually came out for about 45 minutes after days of bad weather.
So I grabbed my camera and let's go.
The topic for Our Daily Challenge is the 4 elements and I see them here, the sun for fire, the foreground field for earth, the clouds for air and the puddle for water.

Heute kam die Sonne nach tagelangem schlechten Wetter tatsächlich für ca. 45 minuten raus.
Also schnappte ich mir eine Kamera und los ging's.
Das Thema für Our Daily Challenge sind die 4 Elemente und ich sehe sie hier, die Sonne für Feuer, das Vordergrundfeld für Erde, die Wolken für Luft und die Pfütze für Wasser.
Yesterday we got an afternoon sunny break from our gray, rainy weather. I went out to a favorite Butterfly spot to see what was flying around.

My last shot of these spoonbills. They are such an amazing bird. Enjoyed watching them as they fed. The Roseate Spoonbill is 1 of 6 species of spoonbills in the world and the only one found in the Americas. The other 5 spoonbills (Eurasian, Royal, African, Black-faced, and Yellow-billed) occur in Asia, Africa, Europe, and Australia.
They appeared behind us when we took the photo.

When looking for Butterflies I always encounter Moths. I used to ignore the smaller brown or pale ones, favoring the larger spectacular species when I see them. Here are four small moths that I found visually interesting.
Thanks to the great identification service from the University of Alberta called "Albertaleps", I have the names of these ones.

This shot was taken later in the afternoon than the other two pictures I posted of these powerful monsters!
That’s the last of my wind turbine shots... for the moment at least!
On to pastures new next time!

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
Lightening struck twice as I found this moth in my neighbourhood on the opening day of International Moth Week, a year after I had photographed one 30 km away at Fort Whyte Alive. There are some minor top side differences in markings and, I believe, in abdomin markings but I note variation in these moths in other sources.
I have some prettier photos of this moth to be posted but this one, with a gritty background, gives a good look at its head and eyes.
This moth, which was over 2 inched in length, is classed as "uncommon" by Peterson's Field Guide to Moths and southern Manitoba is at the edge of its range.
Here are this moth's real eyes as it hangs out. A top view posted to the right shows that it has 6 fake eyes.
It also hung similarly to this by one appendage. Showing off, I guess.
Thank you for your visits, faves and comments. Have a great day!

God's given us years of happiness here
Now we must part
And as the angels come and call for you
The pains of grief tug at my heart
Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey
Oh the days will be empty
The nights so long without you my love
And when god calls for you I'm left alone
But we will meet in heaven above
Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey
Fond memories I'll keep of happy ways
That on earth we trod
And when I come we will walk hand in hand
As one in heaven in the family of god
Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey
Give your gal/fella a big hug. Take your kids somewhere fun. Time is the most valuable, and scarcest, resource you'll ever have. Make the most of it. You're not promised tomorrow.
