I took this portrait of the Little Female a few days ago.
Then, Little Red a Male I haven't seen for several months showed up.
I was able to capture him in a similar pose and thought it would be good to post them next to each other.
As a comparison.
Male and female.
Note the slight differences in head shape and his darker red color. Hence the name Little Red. He is a smaller male.
He has been hanging around her den for the last few days.
When they are focused on her, they completely ignore me. Which is cool, as it allows me to work in close.
Also, an older male that is really starting to show his age, is showing up. He is pretty banged up.
Camera Settings: f/7.1 - 1/160 - 472mm - ISO 320
It was a snowy morning.
2/3/2023
But, seeing Little Red after not seeing him for about 4 months, made it all worth it.
His tail is a lot darker.
He never did have much of a white tip on it and now that is pretty much gone.
But, he did remember me and wasn't afraid.
He was busy marking the Little Females territory.
I am pretty sure that it was his three pups that she had last spring.
They are for some reason super spooky and usually run when they see me.
I never did visit the den.
I keep hoping to get some good close up shots of them.
I know one of them has lost an eye. Don't know what happened.
I saw it in September and the eye was gone.
Seems to be doing okay otherwise.
Still snowing out this morning.

Robbie im Gefängnis. Wartend, dass seine Schwester kommen möge.

You already know him. It's Robbie, long ago he had landed the biggest coup, with his sister together. They had stolen the art painting by William Turner and blundered a high ransom sum – what they anyway as a legitimate inheritance, but they could not prove this fact (but that's another story ...). Unfortunately, Robbie was so broke that he spent something of his money too soon and was caught unfortunately. Since then, he has been sitting behind bars – staring at the dirt of the barred glass and the bubbles in the glass turning into dream bubbles – in yearning expectation that his sister saves him. Will she be able to free him?
As a reminder look at:

Ihr kennt ihn bereits. Es ist Robbie, vor langer Zeit hatte er den größten Coup gelandet, mit seiner Schwester zusammen. Sie hatten das Kunstgemälde von William Turner gestohlen und eine hohe Lösegeldsumme ergaunert – was ihnen sowieso als rechtmäßiges Erbe zustand, sie diesen Tatbestand aber nicht beweisen konnten (aber das ist eine andere Geschichte... ). Leider war Robbie so pleite, dass er zu früh etwas von seinem Anteil ausgegeben hat und leider geschnappt wurde. Seitdem sitzt er hinter Gittern – und starrt auf den Dreck der vergitterten Scheiben und die Blasen im Glas werden zu Traumblasen – in sehnsüchtiger Erwartung, dass ihn seine Schwester rette. Wird sie ihn befreien können?

Nikon Micro-Nikkor-P / 1:3.5 / 55 mm
On Explore - March 14, 2022 - Thanks to all my Flickr friends!
Windy morning and young friendly Robin! I didn't chase him he followed me! and he gave me this lovely pose! I hope you like it.
Exactly 6 years later, I swapped my Nikon 200 - 500mm f/5.6 lens with a lightweight 500mm f/5.6 PF (Phase Fresnel)
The obvious advantage of the 500 PF is weight savings as well as smaller size for better handling.Time will tell with the photo quality whether it is worth the wait or not.
Due to my background as a black and white analog photojournalist, I keep abreast of technology changes. Every new model or technical change needs time.
While writing these lines, my first digital camera experience 20 years ago is from the days of Nikon D100, today Advantages of mirrorless cameras 45.7- megapixels shoot with the full-frame the new flagship camera Nikon Z9.
This is an incredible technological advance. I have been using Nikon D850 for about 1.5 years. It is a professional level, 45.7 megapixel, full-frame workhorse.
How long will the Nikon D850 hold this position as a DSLR, it already has a question mark. Nikon rumors are swirling at the moment to give us an idea of where the brand will go next?
Thank you so much for visiting my stream, whether you comments , favorites or just have a look.
I appreciate it very much, wishing the best of luck and good light.

The trail from Upper Mustang towards Jomsom is a very huge wide seabed before the Himalayas was formed million years ago. The sand is very soft and some parts full of pebbles and rocks..not an easy terrain and it's like a desert valley.
The snow mountain at the far distance is the Nilgiri Himal at 7000 m
Enjoying the Weather POO cat sitting on the deck rail observing his surroundings, he loves outdoors and spends as much time there as he can. It makes him happy, he patrols the grounds of about 4 houses and the woods next to me, he does what he wants and my nearby neighbors treat him like there own, a spoiled rotten wannabe Ferrel cat!
A LITTLE BIT WILD ... !!! ;-)

I miss him in the weeping of the rain;
I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old snows melt from every mountain-side,
And last year’s leaves are smoke in every lane;
But last year’s bitter loving must remain
Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide.
There are a hundred places where I fear
To go — so with his memory they brim.
And entering with relief some quiet place
Where never fell his foot or shone his face
I say, “There is no memory of him here!”
And so stand stricken, so remembering him.

Cross my heart, hope to die
To my lover I'd never lie
He said, "Be true," I swear, "I'll try."
In the end, it's him and I
He's out his head, I'm out my mind
We got that love; the crazy kind
I am his, and he is mine
In the end, it's him and I
Him and I

Haflinger mare *Sonnette* was soooo full of herself . . . and Michael looks like he's in on the joke . . . LOL!
I see him rolling - I hate him.
I see him running - I hate him too!
Why is that silly bird so awfully fast?!
Meep-meep!
Toy Project Day 2206
'In Breughel's Icarus, for instance: how everything turns away
Quite leisurely from the disaster; the ploughman may
Have heard the splash, the forsaken cry,
But for him it was not an important failure; the sun shone
As it had to on the white legs disappearing into the green
Water; and the expensive delicate ship that must have seen
Something amazing, a boy falling out of the sky,
had somewhere to get to and sailed calmly on.' (Auden) 😊
Thought I'd update you on the latest member of my furry 4-legged family - little hammie's been with me just over a week now. I named him "Pippin" (after the hobbit in Lord of the Rings, it just suited him - he's an adventurous little thing!). I'm so pleased with how well he's settled in... I'd been told in the shop he wasn't yet tame and worried he'd be shy. However, whoever bred him handled him well (or he's just an exceptionally confident little hammie!) cause from the start he's been a happy and nosy little character... After 24hrs, I started stroking him, then a little while later, gently scooping him up in my hands]. At first, he scurried off quickly, but now he will happily sit or walk over my hands for a few minutes at a time. He's never once tried to bite or anything :)
He goes out for little adventures each evening in his ball. Of course it's hard to tell with such a tiny creature but I think he really enjoys the explorations around our downstairs. He rolls up and down the hall, the living room and the kitchen, stopping only to sniff an interesting item in his path, give his face a quick wash... or, to investigate Barney!! I'd originally planned to keep dog and hamster apart, particularly when Pippin was in his ball - as Barney is ball obsessed and also a hunter of voles when we're on walks (albeit a very ineffective one!). However as Pip likes to roll everywhere on the ground floor, it wasn't really feasible, so I've taught Barney to be very quiet and calm when Pip's rolling around.
After one quiet but firm "settle down" from me, (he looked a bit too interested on the first evening) he has been good as gold. He actually tries to keep away from Pippin but there's no escape! Pip will spy Barney from up the hall and make a beeline straight for the big dog. He will then sit right up against Barney, sniffing at his paws and fur with obvious interest. Pippin doesn't seem scared, he's happy to groom right next to either dog and doesn't freeze or try and run off... In fact, if I move him away, he often rolls straight back to Barney! Barney lies quietly, deliberately not looking at the hammie and gently moving his paws out the way from time to time. Don't like everything the "Dog Whisperer" says but to use his phrase, Barney's the model of a dog in a "calm, submissive state". Obviously, I wouldn't leave them alone though, it's nice they seem to be co-existing but I wouldn't want Pippin to get hurt...
Anyway, Pippin seems happy in his new home, the dogs have accepted him and he's being very friendly and confident. All going very well really, now, if I can just clicker train him to pose for the camera.... ;-) Haha, will try getting some nicer pics soon, maybe of the odd pair together, reminds me of Bolt and Rhino (if you've seen "Bolt", you'll know what I'm talking about!)
Caught this little guy in mid-jump in the backyard. He's staying very still so I can't see him. He's doing a very good job, don't ya think?
This was a huge win for me today! I have been wanting to photograph a gyrfalcon for quite a long time. I have chased two 2 others ones reported in NJ over the years and failed miserably at even catching a glimpse of one. These birds are very rare in NJ. I was lucky enough to get multiple perch and flight shots of this fella today... quite a treat! Totally worth the 4 hour round trip. I might just go for him again tomorrow! Thanks for looking!
