The tiny gray tree frogs that were recently tadpoles in our pond have metamorphosed, and have started climbing the pickerel weed plants.
The Hairstreak Butterflies have tiny hairs near their tails that resemble antenna. These pseudo-antenna even move to some extent which enhances the deception. Combine these with the eye spots on the wings and predators get confused about which end to hit. Many butterflies survive such hits but have missing pieces of their tails. They seem none the worse for the wear and tear.

A small shimmering dark gray pearl, wrapped in the glow of the light. This is the next of my new suits: 'oily dark gray'. Its an amazingly shiny and smooth fabric, gives a fanstastic fit and a very good craftsmanship. The blue light fits well with it, emphasizes the shiny smoothness of the suit.
Hope you like!

I am wearing another new addition to my wardrobe today. I love how sharp and professional this gray pencil skirt looks, especially paired with a classic white shirt and one of my favourite black bowties. I am working in the evening, and as it is supposed to snow today I think I will enjoy a quiet and relaxing morning at home before my shift.
The other kind of treefrog we have here in our corner of Cape Cod is the "Gray Tree Frog" Hyla versicolor. This is one of the babies. They start out green and eventually gradually turn gray over time. They will get to be about the size of a golf ball as an adult - and are all gray. They are vocal at night in late June and July, seemingly turning on and off their calls with the clock... on at 8:00 off at 11:00.

After spending a lot of time looking for Wolfs in the Lamar Valley of Yellowstone and ,watching a den site with the enthusiast Wolf watchers , we unfortunately weren't lucky!. We did however visit the Grizzly and Wolf center in West Yellowstone which is where i saw this beautiful boy. It is a great place which has given homes to animals from the wild who for different reasons cannot go back. It was really educational and gave us the opportunity to see them.
Gray Catbird perches on a Bird Buddy features in State College, PA. Shot with Bird Buddy and edited with Adobe Lightroom on Mac.
Smoke Photo. Taken with an Flashpoint AD200 off camera strobe to the right, parallel to the black backdrop. Barn doors used on the strobe to control light spilling onto the backdrop. A silver reflector was placed opposite to the strobe, to provide some
Santolina chamaecyparissus or gray santolina (also known as gray lavender cotton because it smells like, well, lavender...).
Not to be confused with its paler sibling green santolina.
Photographed in Cicely Roche's magnificent gardens just outside Gorey, Co Wexford, Ireland.
They are predominantly slate-gray, with a black cap on their head and a rusty-red patch under their tail, which is usually hidden unless the bird is in flight or displays it deliberately.
On June 15, 2017, I photographed this Blue-gray Tanager (Thraupis episcopus) at PANACA in Quimbaya, QuindÃo, Colombia. It ranges from Mexico south to northeast Bolivia and northern Brazil. It lives mainly on fruit but also takes some nectar and insects. It is a common, restless and noisy bird that does well around people and their gardens, usually seen in pairs. Quimbaya was founded in 1914 and became a municipality in 1922.
I used a Canon EOS 70D and the EF400mm f/5.6L USM for this one, at 1/500 sec, f/5.6, ISO 400. IUCN lists the Blue-gray Tanager as Least Concern with an increasing population, and every December 7 and 8 since 1982, Quimbaya's neighborhoods have competed to light the town in the Candles and Lanterns Festival.

The Gray Catbird is generally solitary, and resides in brushy vegetation feeding on insects and other invertebrates and berries. This one was happily singing away on a bright spring day last week. Photo was taken at Mud Lake, Ottawa.
Gray Patridge dig themselves little pits, or dens in the snow when it is particularly cold outside. This is a trick they have adapted since being introduced to the harsh winters of Saskatchewan, Canada, which keeps them out of the wind.
If you’re convinced you’ll never be able to learn bird calls, start with the Gray Catbird. Once you’ve heard its catty mew you won’t forget it. Follow the sound into thickets and vine tangles and you’ll be rewarded by a somber gray bird with a black cap and bright rusty feathers under the tail. Gray Catbirds are relatives of mockingbirds and thrashers, and they share that group’s vocal abilities, copying the sounds of other species and stringing them together to make their own song.
It has been quite a while since I put one of these little buggers on and they seem to be particularly busy right now.
