Amidst the vast, icy expanse, a formidable sight unfolds as the mama polar bear rises on her hind legs, a towering sentinel of the frozen realm. In this moment, the wild takes on an almost mythical resonance, echoing the primal instincts etched in the tapestry of nature. The towering stature of the bear signals a dual purpose: a testament to her strength and a strategic vantage point to survey the Arctic landscape for potential threats or prey. This act, both majestic and utilitarian, mirrors the complex dance of maternal instincts woven across species. In the human and animal kingdoms alike, mothers stand as guardians, their primal instincts attuned to protect and nurture. The upright stance of the polar bear resonates with the shared essence of motherhood, where strength and vigilance converge, transcending the boundaries of ice and human experience.

Sometimes our most basic and primal instincts take over....

Aiko is not eager to look at me when dad is out of his sight..... He hates when we are apart, even though it is only 10 meters 😁 His herding instincts is really kicking in, he wants us to be together all the time.

He is a cute dear 💖

It's amazing these hummers who can't stay still for over 30 seconds will sit on the nests 30 to 60 minutes at a time --

and posting as my favorite image of the 2019 year --- an update if you missed the postings -- both little ones didn't make it out the first week, although the nest is still there and hopefully ready to be updated this spring.......

Can consider this as a "lucky" #action shot of my THUNDER :)

 

He is so young and agile...he always "meows" at us so he can play outside 😺

Quite a young cub, probably not much more than 3 months old, but already has signs of being a hunter!

L'instinct de l'observateur

 

Il y avait un petit moment que j'étais accroupi entre les rochers. J'entends sur ma droite une groupe de Petit Chevalier , en vol. Je braque le télé objectif sur la cible , un oiseau différent attire mon oeil.

 

Le petit groupe se posa non loin de moi, farouche, sur le qui vive. Je connaissais cet intrus, un oiseau rare nichant dans l'arctique.

 

Il est 12:30 h, la lumière est forte et brûle les blancs... Il faut oublier la photo ! Mais la patience est mon alliée. J'observe l'oiseau sans bouger, il est moins nerveux.

 

13:20 h. Un type arrive à grands pas derrière moi, il voit des oiseaux, les oiseaux s'excitent , je le foudroie du regard, il s'esquive .

 

14:10 h. Le soleil est encore haut dans le ciel mais les oiseaux commencent à s'énerver avec la marée montante. Malgré la lumière encore forte, je photographie parce que je sens que la présence de l'oiseau s'achève...

 

3 minutes et c'était terminé, une belle envolée de bécasseaux !

La lumière encore un peu trop forte mais...

  

The instinct of the observer

 

There was a moment when I was squatting between the rocks. I hear on my right a group of Lesser Yellowlegs in flight. I point the objective tele at the target, a different bird attracts my eye.

 

The little group landed not far from me, fierce, on the alert. I knew this intruder, a rare bird nesting in the Arctic.

 

It is 12:30 pm, the light is strong and burns the whites ... We must forget the photo! But patience is my ally. I observe the bird without moving, it is less nervous.

 

13:20 h. A guy is fast approaching behind me, he sees birds, birds get excited, I glare at him, he dashes away.

 

14:10 h. The sun is still high in the sky but the birds start to get upset with the rising tide. Despite the still strong light, I photograph because I feel that the presence of the bird ends ...

 

3 minutes and it was over, a beautiful flight of sandpipers!

The light still a little too strong but ...

"Out & About" today enjoying some beautiful spring weather finally, and disturbed this family basking in the sunlight!

 

One or two stern honks sent the goslings into the safety of the water, followed by glares from the parents! The adult on the right honked something I'm sure wasn't very nice! :(

This afternoon we combed Daisy, our Border Terrier. There are blue tits building a nest in our bird box at the moment and so we put her hair in a bush nearby. I was thrilled to get some shots of the blue tits taking some of the hair to use in the nest. Those baby birds are going to be very cosy!

Well, some people may question me how i take those interesting images?.....

I often reply them with a laugh, just my pure Luck!

No, Not really so effectively, it fundamentally fall into my basic photography instinct Plus the game of patient waiting.

Waiting for the right moment will stand you higher chance succeding if you are also patient enough to expect what u didn't expect to turn out as primarily we can never able to control their subtle mind, but the rewards of patient to wait for the right moment to strike would be fruitful after plugging out some great courages tries..

Candid street photography is definitely exciting and super challenging, people been suspicously shot would be intimidated by your move after they discover your intention.

However, don't be intimidated and quit if you kept really a distance away with them as they might express the moment of time correctly suitable for the next golden call shot of the day.

My little secret to share, when i spotted what interest me no matter the distance is too far away, i will first subtly hit few triggle trial shots quietly to test unawareness is possible, then i will advance quickly closer to my target and compose shot that well fits with another few shots all in silent mode and auto ISO. if the angle wasn't right i would quickly recompose decisively as too many rowdy movement may alarm your target quickly and thing you don't want start fall apart wrongly. The vital elements is see the correct light and shadow fall and follow the direction of lights to position one-selves to capture them with as many possible good shots as require

Animal Instinct

The Cranberries

 

So take my hands and come with me

We will change reality

So take my hands and we will pray

They won't take you away

They will never make me cry, no

They will never make me die

 

And the thing that gets to me

Is you'll never really see

And the thing that freaks me out

Is I'll always be in doubt

 

The animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me

It's the animal, the animal, the animal instinct in me

It's the animal, it's the animal, it's the animal instinct in me

BEAR SANCTUARY MÜRITZ

Western Europe's largest bear sanctuary is currently home to 13 brown bears rescued from zoos, circuses and private homes. Bears that have lived in captivity cannot be reintroduced to the wild - they are too dependent on humans and would not survive in the wild.

 

The BEAR SANCTUARY Müritz, a FOUR PAWS animal welfare project, offers an alternative for such bears. They can revert to their animal instincts and enjoy their natural behavioural patterns. They can roam around the enclosure, withdraw to be in seclusion, excavate caverns and hollows, bathe in the pond or also rediscover their natural winter state of semi-hibernation.
