One of the RHS Hyde Hall robins, who tend to be pretty tame and so seem happy enough to pose for a few shots!

A friendly wave from Driver David Green the longest serving driver with Galloway. Vanhool Astron 4178 pp had brought a school party to the swimming baths at Felixstowe
Green and beautiful, this frog took no notice as its photo was taken from multiple angles. When talent scouts come cruising, the least one can do is pose and give your best Mona Lisa smile, fame is incidental to a frog so friendly and fabulous.

Hope I have ID right or else David won't be happy!! Lol!
Always feel so privileged when a skittish (in my experience at least) insect happily stays on you!

Northern Cape Province
South Africa
The Northern Cape is the largest and most sparsely populated province of South Africa. It was created in 1994 when the Cape Province was split up. Its capital is Kimberley. It includes the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park, part of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, an international park shared with Botswana. It also includes the Augrabies Falls and the diamond mining regions in Kimberley and Alexander Bay. The Namaqualand region in the west is famous for its Namaqualand daisies.
This photo was taken on my way to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.

Male Southern Hawker Dragonfly (Aeshna Cyanea).
The more time I've spent photographing these intriguing creatures this summer the more my affection has grown for them and vice versa it seems. This inquisitive fellah landed on my leg twice and then decided to land in my lens hood, literally in my lens hood! Sadly no pictures I'm afraid as his visits were far too brief but it did make me smile nonetheless.
I've got a quite a few more 'head on' shots of these guys in flight but I thought I'd show a different side to them today with a couple more images of them in flight also included below.
Thanks in advance for any comments or favourites you may wish to make & I hope you're not too bored of dragonflies!
Handheld macro, manual focus.
Flapper shows that he's mostly a friendly guy. A little bit of a face-biter, but mostly super sweet and cuddly.
I know you are admiring my 3-layers of yard clothes and my fashion sense. Duck-bite-proof clothing is ALL the rage.
This is from a farm near Dawson Creek, British Columbia on a day when all of the horses were near the outside fence. The foals were quite shy and sticking close to the mares but I waited long enough for a couple of the foals to be separated from the others. The darker colt was a bit bolder and it almost seemed that he was being protective of his young filly friend.
This photo is dedicated to my friend Jenny, who most of you probably know because she is a fabulous photographer and one of the best flickr members. Nobody takes better horse photos and her grizzly shots are also world class. Well, when I think of Jenny, I think grizzlies and horses, in that order but come to think of it, her landscapes and hummingbirds are pretty darn good too!
So, this one is for you Jenny.... and if anyone needs to be steered to her fabulous photostream to see her horses, bears and more, find her here:

There's not much left of the ghost town of Friend, Oregon. Just a schoolhouse, cemetery, a mysterious concrete building, and this old general store and post office. Named after George J. Friend, the town with a brief history is just another casualty of a railroad line being abandoned and, per usual, the town followed suit. It was the final stop of the Great Southern Railroad that ceased operation in 1936.
A very friendly Green Clean burning California machine smokes it way through Bixler, CA. The crew was very aware that their power was smoking through radio chatter. They rushed their way to Richmond, CA.
