(Circus aeruginosus) This marsh harrier had caught a black headed gull in the middle of a lake but was struggling to lift it. I don't think I'll get this close to a marsh harrier at eye level again! Taken from a photo boat hide in the Danube Delta.
Dad is the gray sandhill crane here who was dancing as his wife carefully critiqued his technique. I hope he didn't make any missteps!
“Althaea officinalis, known by its common name marshmallow (or marsh mallow), is a flowering plant in the mallow family that grows in wet, marshy environments.” The marshmallows you roast over the camp fire used to contain the sap from this plant and it is how the sweet confection got its name. Today there is no mallow sap used in marshmallows. All parts of the plant are edible. Some parts are used as herbal remedies for ulcers and respiratory ailments. The root contains a slimy sap that humans aren’t able to digest. When eaten, it passes through the digestive system and leaves behind a soothing coating, which aids in digestive problems. Even today the plant is used for a wide variety of medical ailments. The Romans considered the flowers a delicacy. The plant can grow three to five feet tall and once established reseeds itself every year.
A Marsh Wren singing at Swan Lake, BC yesterday. It was quite a windy day, so I had to wait for the reeds to blow out of the way to capture him.

Stopped by Commonwealth Lake yesterday for the first time in quite a while. Hoped to see an osprey, without luck, but did get to see this marsh wren. It's been quite some time!

This snowy egret was seen half-hopping and half-flying over Crissy Field Marsh in San Francisco, while hunting for food.

A view at high tide of the partially submerged trees and barn on Porlock Salt Marsh.
Not a particularly long walk to get to the location and back but a bagful of gear and a half hour of high intensity photography in well over 30°C meant a long cold one was very welcome once we got back to the pub.
Marsh wrens are always so much fun as you seek to follow their song and movements through the reeds and it always brings a little satisfaction when you can get a half decent picture of them, Check out those feet...
