This grumpy looking fella is a curve-billed thrasher. Despite his rather downturned beak, his song is fairly cheery. That long curved bill comes in handy when foraging for insects desert environments.
Portrait Of A Boulder...
This boulder had so many personalities... I couldn't help but capture them!
This grumpy osprey had just finished shooting some "silly string" at my feet, and apparently was not happy I was on the trail that day LOL.
... what a f ...... new year ....
Wer hat mir eigentlich so die Maschine abgewürgt zum Jahreswechsel? ...
Ich hoffe ich komme jetzt endlich wieder auf einen grünen Zweig. Das Bild ist von letztens. Danach bin ich nicht mehr aus dem Haus gekommen, blieb mir immerhin das ganze Schneechaos erspart ....
und zum Geburtstag musste ich auch keine Spendierhosen anziehen ... hahaha ...
Nee ehrlich, ohne Galgenhumor geht das gerade nicht mehr,
hab bald alles durch, von unten bis oben, fehlt nur noch das Hirn ;-) ...
Musste noch einmal eine Auszeit nehmen ... nein und ich war nicht übermütig. Ich hätte am Montag letzter Woche wieder arbeiten wollen/sollen und bin nur im Schneckentempo am Sonntag den Stadtbichl (Stadthügel) rauf mit meiner besseren Hälfte, die auch nicht fit war ... nun denn und dann kam wieder eins zum anderen. Morgen letzter Tag mit Antibiotikum und dann wieder Aufbau, alles und ganz, ganz langsam ... schnaufe gerade sowieso wie eine alte Dampflock, da geht auch nur noch langsam ...
Grumpy Bird is a Superb Starling and they live up to their name. They are not only amazingly colourful but they also have loads of personality. Superb Starlings are an African species and I took this photo in the aviary at our zoo.
Distant pic of a Dollarbird looking like it has lost its last cent. These are Australia's only member of the colourful roller family which appear around this time of year on their annual migration from Indonesia and New Guinea.
Rupert looks grumpy after I woke him up from a deep sleep to take this photograph. 11:14pm, Thursday the 4th of May, 2023.
Making my annual pilgrimage to my accountant and not wanting to deal with the potholes, kamikaze taxi drivers and outrageously expensive parking I take the train into Manhatten to take care of business and in the 65 years of riding the trains is with exception of people heading to a ball game or some other special events subways are filled with tired looking people with mostly dour expressions going to and from work.
True story: on this beautiful sunny Sunday morning I cruised by to check out this fellow for my 29th picture. I paused for a four way stop intersection and glanced around for an empty parking spot.
A motorist, with a temperament similar to this fellow's, rolled up to my rear bumper and laid a heavy hand on his truck's horn for a deafening three second blast. As I often do with grumpy drivers, I rolled down my window and gave him a big friendly wave in response. :-)
Geez. Some. People.

I can imagine hearing this old Walrus in the front saying, if you boys don't knock it off, I'll...
Male Walrus in the Arctic.
