It is haying season in my part of the world. This was taken a few years ago. The barn has since been torn down. A shame if you ask me. The background texture is Texture - 314 by Lenabem Anna.
Winner of this year's 100m.
On the last leg of a recent trip to Finland staying at Parikkala on the Russian border, we headed out early one morning (4am). No more than half a mile driving away from our lodge, we encountered a small flock of Common Cranes in a field. I was driving but thankfully the camera was primed and ready as these magnificent birds were spoked by the car and took-off into the wind.
I managed a series of take-off shots of this bird. I can tell you it needed some runway! Light wasn’t great but the Sony A1 dealt with it!
He was born 30 December 1869 at Swanmore, county of Hampshire, England.
In 1876 he emigrated to Canada with his family and settled on a farm near the hamlet of Egypt, south of Sibbald Point on Lake Simcoe.
Leacock was educated at Upper Canada College, Toronto. He completed a degree in modern languages at the University of Toronto in 1891.
Inspired by Thorstein Veblen’s The Theory of the Leisure Class, he enrolled at the University of Chicago, receiving a Ph.D. in political economy and political science under Veblen in 1903.
He was keeping an eye on me.
Seen in Glen Strathfarrar, Scotland.
Have a lovely day/night:)

This is one of the two Western Bluebird fledglings that hatched in my backyard this spring. He’s fluttering his wings while waiting for dad to arrive with a tasty morsel.
Western Bluebirds are small thrushes that usually perch upright. They are stocky with thin, straight bills and fairly short tails.
Male Western Bluebirds are shiny blue above with rust-orange extending from a vest on the breast onto the upper back. Females are gray-buff with a pale orange wash on the breast and blue tints to the wings and tail. The throat is blue in males and gray-buff in females, and the lower belly is whitish.
These birds are highly social, and usually feed in flocks during the non-breeding season. They hunt for terrestrial insects by dropping to the ground from a low perch. Western Bluebirds also frequently feed on berries in trees. Western Bluebirds rely on trees both for nesting cavities and hunting perches, and also perch on fences and utility lines.

Walkin' down this rocky road
Wondering where my life is leadin'
Rollin' on to the bitter end...

All the critters were on hawk watch this morning as a Cooper's hawk was hanging out at the feeders today. This little red squirrel had a good hiding spot.
Thank you so much for taking a look, the favs and comments.

Another hike while it is very hot in Vancouver but at least it was early in the morning and not as hot in the forest.
On aime aller marcher et ici on est a l'ombre ce qui est bien vu la canicule qui dure depuis une semaine à Vancouver.
He only kills enough to eat, not more.
Some "humans" could learn from him and not kill other people needlessly! These days even seeing such beautiful animal does not bring me joy...
Photographed from the best blind, the car. Coyote was pouncing on the voles between the grasses, but eventually got closer to the park path.

He who binds to himself a joy
Does the winged life destroy;
But he who kisses the joy as it flies
Lives in eternity's sun rise.

This was the beginning of a nice little storm that chose to chase us from this small peninsula we considered perfect for staying the night on. The wind blew on our camper van, it shook us and tried to topple us over so vigorously, we had to give in and leave in search for shelter...

¡Yo, aún no he aprendido
cómo se montan los costos
de eso que llamamos luz!
Desde luego, no es fácil
conocer los elementos
que entran en tal portento.
Y si hablamos de variables,
de gastos, no de otra cosa,
¿qué se mete en tal cajón?
¿Y de fijos?
Eso que siempre cuesta,
se produzca más o menos,
y que siempre está ahí.
¿Me desglosa, por favor,
ese costo interminable
que incluye a tanto señor?
Yo, aún no he aprendido
si el robo y el latrocinio
también se incluye ahí.
No se ofendan, no señores,
que llevarse un sobresueldo
por sentarse en el consejo
no es robo, es conexión
de una torre con otra
de ese sabido ajedrez
donde sólo los peones
mueven de uno en uno,
y su costo bien se ve.
No así el costo fijo,
oculto entre no sé qué.
Our Mighty Little Hunter, the male American Kestrel was successful once again. It was a very windy day and I was surprised I got this shot off as he was having a hard time flying with the Vole half his size. After zipping around in circles and me getting dizzy trying to follow him, he landed in a nearby tree where he ate his kill. Bucks County PA.
He looks like the garden pet!
But know., this is a wild buzzard., and he's an absolute beauty as well
You'll know by now we 'love' our raptors., and spend a lot of time chasing them around.,
Doing all of this we have got to notice the variations in colour and even facial features from one bird to another
Even in the avian world., some birds are just better looking than others & this one could easily get a job as a part-time model!
