У многих людей сложился стереотип, что гриб мухомор – это ядовитый лесной житель с красной шапочкой в белый горошек. Лишь немногие знают, что это собирательное название рода пластинчатых грибов с широким видовым разнообразием. Большинство из них ядовиты, порой даже смертельно, но есть среди них и съедобные, которые принято считать деликатесами.

Thankyou once again WelshFlickrCymru friends for a lovely evening (Fri 25th) ....thoroughly enjoyed your company..

Common or not, I feel the Common yellow throat is one of the prettiest warblers around. They are abundant breeders in and around wetlands and marshes as they prefer to breed in low shrubs. It is a well known fact that females when choosing there partner's prefer males with a larger mask. In this warbler world the bad guys finish first.

From a few weeks ago.

Very sour...

and I say it's "ABOUT BLOODY TIME"

The Snow Goose take off in unison from the Crane pools out side of Bosque Del Apache NWR. You get there before first light and just wait in the bitter cold dessert morning and hope that the sun comes before the first flight. The Snow Geese generally do not gather ohhs and ahhs from nature enthusiast mainly because of there over whelming numbers. They are highly successful and come to the US for the winters by the hundreds of thousands.

This redshank was looking for food in a meadow just along the road. A moment later there was also a lapwing.

Have a great Friday and weekend.... Hugs to all of you!
