130) Lesser Coucal
Lesser Coucal, Centropus bengalensis, Butbut Kecil
This species is usually found is often marshy land with grass and tree cover. The lesser coucal is found singly or in pairs low in the undergrowth in marshy or grassy areas adjoining forest. They appear to be found mainly in lowlands. Like other coucals, they are not brood-parasitic cuckoos. They moves fast among the undergrowth searching for insects as their main diet.

The Lesser Stag beetle (Dorcus parallelipipedus) is smaller with much less impressive antlers than the Great Stag, its more famous big cousin, and it is a beautiful beetle, much more common and also lives much longer as the beetle than the Great stag. This specimen was found on the bathroom floor (may have been attracted by light or just by the open window). It was released after a short photo session in the garden. Bath, BANES, England, U.K.
I don't usually see these in this location (Klineline pond), so it was a surprise to get close to a couple that were foraging.
Lesser scaup (Aythya affinis) is a peak-headed diving duck. Males have black breast, finely-barred gray back, whitish sides (often slightly dusty-looking), and yellow eye. Head appears black with a purplish or greenish sheen in good light. Females are brown overall with white patch at base of bill and yellow eye.
Wikipedia: The lesser whistling duck (Dendrocygna javanica), also known as Indian whistling duck or lesser whistling teal, is a species of whistling duck that breeds in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. They are nocturnal feeders that during the day may be found in flocks around lakes and wet paddy fields. They can perch on trees and sometimes build their nest in the hollow of a tree. This brown and long-necked duck has broad wings that are visible in flight and produces a loud two-note wheezy call. It has a chestnut rump, differentiating it from its larger relative, the fulvous whistling duck, which has a creamy white rump.

The blue hour changes a lot in a place's colours and atmosphere. The often-photographed (by me, too) Motel One/Upper West and Waldorf Astoria highrises in Berlin's City West are no exception, just like the rather posh-looking, supersized gas street lamp in front of the Upper West (16 meters tall, weighing 4 tons), the sculpture "Lesser" by German artist Olaf Nicolai (*1962, Halle/Saale). The high-gloss polished metal surface of the street lamp, which is a detailed replica of a historic Berlin "Schinkel lantern" (scale: 4:1), is of a bright chrome tone but the light from the other street lamps, the windows, and also the brightly illuminated Zoo Palast cinema across the street turned its surface into gold.
The colours and lights are a little festive, so I thought this was a nice image for the second (Sliders) Sunday in Advent. My original idea for a title was "Whisk" because the street lamp/sculpture and the fluffy, "creamy" clouds reminded me of a giant electric whipper/whisk.
HSS, Everyone, and have a nice second Sunday of Advent!
