Hunting grounds for both the bird and the photographer ...
I don't know if the bird got it's catch but I certainly did.
This golden-crowned sparrow was one of several that would venture out of the grass onto the edge of the path for a bite, then go back in if perceived danger was detected. Spotted at Jackson Bottom wetlands.
This really is a splendid place, meticulously maintained. We celebrated my wife's birthday at their outdoor restaurant, then spent an hour or more walking the grounds.
www.sanysidroranch.com/ has all the details. We stayed here on our honeymoon. Rates have risen *significantly* since then.

Southwest of town, there are panoramic views from the Opua Forest Paihia Lookout Track. 13369

Do you like to get lost? Doing so at the close by mountain peak called Lisja Stjena ( Fox peak) back home it’s not that difficult to do. Chasing light at 1400m (4600ft) above the see level never gets dull. This particular trail brings a ton of feelings back and getting lost again in this beautiful landscapes is really exciting. What do you think?
Rusting train engine on the grounds of the Train Museum in Snoqualmie, Washington.
Most people probably go to the Train Museum in Snoqualmie, Washington for the train rides and for a visit to the quaint train station that is now a museum, but about a mile away on the road to the town center is 50 yards of decaying, rusting train cars full of fascinating textures.
Unfortunately, the train is about 30 feet behind a chain link fence, but I got some decent shots using a telephoto while walking along the elevated highway that runs parallel to the tracks. I was lucky that the sun was almost directly overhead and casting perfect shadows for about 20 minutes before the surfaces were in shadows for the day.
A walk around the grounds around University of Canterbury club (Ilam). Some of the flowers are now past their prime but still a relaxing scene.
Evagelistria Monastery, the largest on Skiathos, is surrounded by beautiful grounds. It also served as a safe haven from invaders, hence the heavily fortified entrance gate.

This Thorn tree is said to have sprouted from Joseph of Aramathia's staff when he drove it into the ground here. The thorn tree is said to flower on Christmas Day. I don't know whether it really does as the abbey grounds are closed then, but it does flower over the Christmas period.
Job 18:17 “His remembrance shall perish from the earth, and he shall have no name on the pasture-grounds.”
Interesting phraseology: ground coffee (the fresh off-the-shelf product) vs coffee grounds (the wastage following brewing).

IC #1021 rounds the curve at 35th Street near the site of the tomb of Stephen A. Douglas, Illinois Senator and lobbyist for the Illinois Central Railroad. The infamous Union prisoner-of-war camp, Camp Douglas, was located just north of here on land that Douglas sold to the State of Illinois in 1861. Dubbed "Andersonville of the North", it is estimated that over 6,000 Confederate prisoners died in the camp and are buried in Oak Woods Cemetery off 67th Street.
We found this beautiful butterfly in the grounds of our hotel near the Kruger National Park in November 2019.

UP YPR60B departs for Cragin after finishing its work at the Tribune and Blommer. The U-Haul facility on the right has been vacated for redevelopment around the future site of Bally's Casino. The Tribune is expected to vacate the Freedom Center by July meaning that rail shipments will end sometime before that.
