NGC 3718, also called ARP 214, is a galaxy located approximately 52 million light years from Earth in the constellation Ursa Major and has a diameter of about 110,000 light years. It is either a lenticular or spiral galaxy.
NGC 3718 has a warped, s-shape. This may be due to gravitational interaction between it and NGC 3729, another spiral galaxy located 150,000 light-years away.
NGC 3718 is a member of the Ursa Major Cluster.
To the right of NGC 3718 is the remarkable Hickson Group 56. The Hickson Group 56 is made up of five interacting galaxies and is more than 400 million light years away.

This photo was taken on the island of Crete, Greece, in a rocky coastal inlet. Shallow pools of clear water form among jagged stones and pebbles, revealing submerged textures and geological layers. The foreground is filled with scattered rocks, while the background features a mountainous landmass under a partly cloudy sky. The scene captures the interplay between land and sea — where erosion, mineral rhythm, and Mediterranean light converge in quiet clarity.
Cette photo a été prise sur l’île de Crète, en Grèce, dans une crique rocheuse côtière. Des bassins peu profonds d’eau claire se forment entre les pierres et galets, révélant des textures immergées et des strates géologiques. Le premier plan est rempli de roches éparses, tandis qu’à l’arrière-plan s’étend une masse montagneuse sous un ciel partiellement nuageux. La scène saisit l’interaction entre terre et mer — où érosion, rythme minéral et lumière méditerranéenne se rencontrent dans une clarté silencieuse.

Two male giraffes fighting down by the Ewaso Ng'iro River. They sometimes swing their heads under the body to try to knock their opponent off their feet.
Male giraffes use their necks as weapons in combat, a behavior known as "necking". Necking is used to establish dominance and males that win necking bouts have greater reproductive success. This behavior occurs at low or high intensity.
In low intensity necking, the combatants rub and lean against each other. The male that can hold itself more erect wins the bout. In high intensity necking, the combatants will spread their front legs and swing their necks at each other, attempting to land blows with their ossicones. The contestants will try to dodge each other's blows and then get ready to counter. The power of a blow depends on the weight of the skull and the arc of the swing.
A necking duel can last more than half an hour, depending on how well matched the combatants are. Although most fights do not lead to serious injury, there have been records of broken jaws, broken necks, and even deaths.
After a duel, it is common for two male giraffes to caress and court each other, leading up to mounting and climax. Such interactions between males have been found to be more frequent than heterosexual coupling. In one study, up to 94 percent of observed mounting incidents took place between males. The proportion of same-sex activities varied from 30–75 percent. Only one percent of same-sex mounting incidents occurred between females.

In this case, new life created this beautiful drop of water.

Some of their trademark high pitched vocalization is apparent in Vic Doc
Orange feet and white feature on wings are diagnostic for this species in the our area
...with vocalization one gets a chance to view this "other aspect "
Quite a bit of flying and interactions
i was thinking most/some of it may be sub adult posturing and pair bonding competition & displays.....but they are also nesting in close proximity ....so i don't really know

Not a stellar image. The action was far away and this is a big crop. I don't get many chances to catch an interaction between these falcon species. I hope it is an interesting shot. I was happy just to get it.
When a Gyrfalcon and a Prairie Falcon show up at the grain terminal here at the same time, the Gyr always convinces the much smaller Prairie Falcon to hunt elsewhere.

"Egret Intimate Interaction" by Patti Deters. A Great White Egret (Ardea alba) parent gently nurtures her very alert chick in a nest made of twigs and branches. The intimate scene lasted just long enough for me to capture the tender moment. It was almost as if they were silently communicating - perhaps "discussing" some important survival lessons. There were other chicks in the nest as you can see by the white fluffy feathers, but this particular baby was the most eager to nestle with mama. These wading birds are found throughout the USA, and this particular spring nest was seen in Fergus Falls, Minnesota. Thank you for viewing this picture.
