DAZZLINGLY ATTRACTIVE bird, not often seen in our corner of Kent UK, and was not expecting to see it in the Grove Ferry Feast Hide, but what a joy when it landed, he caught a couple of tiddlers and was off, leaving me with the biggest grin ever.

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!
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.

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.

Here he is standing at dawn, like an insect among giants of sandstone that are already standing here bevor humans even found any term to express time. His eyes are wandering across a landscape what is so breathtaking and so multi-faceted that he knows, he will not be able to conceive it completely in his entire life. Still he will try it, over and over again. Because its worth it.
Da steht er nun in der Morgendämmerung, gleich einem Insekt unter Giganten aus Sandstein welche schon hier waren, bevor der Mensch enen Begriff für Zeit gefunden hatte. Er lässt seinen Blick über eine Landschaft schweifen die so atemberaubend und so vielschichtig ist, dass er weiß, er wird sie in seinem ganzen Leben nicht voll erfassen können. Trotzdem wird er es versuchen, immer wieder. Weil es sich lohnt.
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.
Hope you like this l/e. A lovely peaceful place.
This is only 1km from my house in a beautiful ancient wood. Its very quiet and very few people go to this part of it. A great place to practice long exposure photos or lose yourself.
Thanks for all your kind words and favourites.
Hope you like it.
Keep Well!

Im just amazed how this pic has taken off. I wasnt sure if it was good enough but thats always me as its impossble to judge your own photos really. Im struggling now to catch up with all of you but bear with me as Ill get to you!!
For your info. I used a 6 stop variable nd filter. Took the photo at F7.1 in app prio. Shutter speed came up at one eight of a second. Going up 6 stops gave me 8 seconds shutter speed. Put the camera in Shutter prio at 8 secs.Switched to manual focus. Screwed on filter and took the photo.Its not bad though there is a bit of a colour cast but I like that. Should have covered the lens better.
Heres a great vid from "the man" Graham Haughton. Super!

My photos on Flickriver;
Alas my friends , my Wi-Fi is still not fixed , making pictures in SL is almost an impossible task but the brief tiny minutes I can be on am I trying to use well.
I hope my problems about the net is soon fixed , I've missed Halloween and all the beautiful pictures you all make... :(
My creeps will show up , halloween or not , I hope you all understand my silence on Flickr and Second Life and hope soon to return fully.
The picture I upload today is my sweetest chum , partner in crime , with such wonderful fantasy to write and create what I always admire.
I would wonder if there is love between an angel and the fallen angel down in Hell..would he travel and make his way down to find her , safe her , be with her..or even join the fallen ones to be with her?

He waits for her to understand
But she won't understand at all
She waits all night for him to call
But he won't call anymore
He waits to hear her say
Forgive
But she just drops her pearl-black eyes
And prays to hear him say
I love you
But he tells no more lies
He waits for her to sympathize
But she won't sympathize at all
She waits all night to feel his kiss
But always wakes alone
He waits to hear her say
Forget
But she just hangs her head in pain
And prays to hear him say
No more
I'll never leave again
How did we get this far apart?
We used to be so close together
How did we get this far apart?
I thought this love would last forever
He waits for her to understand
But she won't understand at all
She waits all night for him to call
But we won't call
He waits to hear her say
Forgive
But she just drops her pearl-black eyes
And prays to hear him say
I love you
But he tells no more lies
How did we get this far apart?
We used to be so close together
How did we get this far apart?
I thought this love would last forever
