Either they are ignoring me and my camera or they do know I am there and they are just posing for the camera at Richmond Park.

It's the time of year when baitfish start forming into thick balls and herons and egrets start playing ball. Great Egret with gulf menhaden on Horsepen Bayou.
This being the first time Yuki came in contact with a hay bale in the field she didn't understand why it wouldn't respond when she tried to herd it. So there was a long process of a stare down. When she felt she taught it a good lesson she walked away satisfied.
My visit to the Gulf States was breathtaking. Taken on route to the Arabian Desert in Dubai. I was clearly of interest to this very talkative specimen!
Aiko is a herder
Normally his breed herds reindeers or sheep
But he likes to keep track of the people he wants to have around himself
Not easy to herd a flock when the guy he is trying to find has gone away for weeks
Mark was here last time, mom
Where is he now?
I can't find him....
When I let him off the leash Aiko went straight to the spot where he was alone with Mark
He is definitely missing his dad
They really have a lovely bond
And that is something that warms my heart
He'll be back Aiko, he will be back
A Victorian lighthouse in South Shields, Tyneside.
The lighthouse was built in 1882, before the North and South piers were constructed, and was first used on 30th October of the same year. It is 13 metres high and still acts as a navigational aid today, guiding ships in and out of the Tyne from up to 13 miles away. The lighthouse is also one of just a few in this country that has an operational fog bell.
Water is precious everywhere but in places where it is scarce, as in the deserts of the world, its importance becomes palpable. Small changes in the availability of water can mean life or death for the people that live there. Climate change, mining and infrastructure development all will stress this precious resource in Mongolia's Gobi Desert placing additional pressure on herders there. Picture taken at a well where this herder was “watering” his goats.
Maybe 20 or 30 red-breasted mergansers were cruising around the inlet in a pack, looking under the surface, diving, and scooting across the water in short bursts. I've read that they sometimes hunt as a group, herding schools of small fish into shallow water. That may have been what was happening here. SW CT
