Upper wings of this medium sized butterfly with elongated forewings. The upper surface of the wings is bright orange with black markings. The forewing cell contains three black-rimmed white spots. These butterflies are migrating south to escape wintry weather.
I had to share a splash of colour to brighten up the day. Snow and rain mix here in Edmonton Today😖
these Wildebeest had spent the night in the woodlands and were heading towards the Ndutu Marsh area (in the south east of the Serengeti, Tanzania )
The south east of the Serengeti is the most southern part of the annual Great Migration . It is the area where most of the Wildebeest calves are born.
Many thanks for your views, favorites and supportive comments.

A winter view south across Utah's Emigration Canyon to the higher Wasatch beyond. The canyon was first traversed by the Donner Party in 1846, and then, a year later by the Mormon pioneers who settled the Salt Lake Valley below. This became a favored route through the imposing Wasatch Mountains to the far west.
Texture: Topaz.

Au sujet de l’art…
Je profite de Migration, pour continuer à partager avec vous mes réflexions sur l’art et la photographie…Aujourd’hui: Qu’est-ce que la beauté ?
Le point de vue d’un philosophe
« Le beau est ce qui plaît universellement sans qu’on puisse dire pourquoi il nous plaît : le beau est irréductible à un concept, à un modèle, à une explication » (E. KANT)
Le point de vue de ceux qui savent 😂
« On nous apprend souvent à chercher la beauté en toutes choses… Alors pour la trouver, le profane demande conseil au philosophe, tandis que le philosophe, ne sachant pas quoi répondre, s’en remet… au photographe. » (Criss Jamy. Killosophy)

About art ...
I take advantage of Migration, to continue to share with you my thoughts on art and photography ... Today: What is beauty?
The point of view of a philosopher
« Beauty is what universally pleases without being able to say why it pleases us: beauty is irreducible to a concept, a model, an explanation » (Kant)
The point of view of those who know 😂
"We are often taught to seek beauty in all things ... So to find it, the layperson asks the philosopher, while the philosopher, not knowing what to answer, relies on ... the photographer. (Criss Jamy, Killosophy)
Wildebeest migration in the savannah of Masai Mara, Kenya.
This was close to the Kenya Tanzania border. Unfortunately I did not get to witness the crossing of the Masai River.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated...
Happy Travel Tuesday
Chestnut-sided Warbler
This was one of my goals. To find and shoot a nice male in breeding plumage. He was the third goal of an epic day at Delaware State Forest, Pike County PA.
Philadelphia vireos summer in Canada, and though this one is not much south of the border, it is likely en route to winter quarters in central America, and not a resident here in far northern New York. Any seen in Philadelphia are almost certainly in the midst of migration - north, or south.
An image from last spring in Prince Edward County - I have one week or work travel before I get a chance to head back there for a few days to check in on the migration.
Last year my visit coincided with a major push of Grosbeaks and Orioles, and they were everywhere along the shore, in flocks. I had not witnessed a landing by so many of a single species before, let alone a species that one is lucky to find, let alone photograph, in Ottawa.
My preference is always to find birds in habitat and to situate them as such in images, but every once in a while opportunities arise for a completely clean image.
Subject: Birds fly or fall through a passage between structures.
Medium: Digital Artwork.
Inspiration: Experimental.
Lots of warblers on the move in the last few days .Fall migration is happening here.
