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)
This is one of the longest migrating raptors in the planet. The annual migration covers around 22,000 Km - 30,000 km / 14-18,000 miles starting from Siberia / Northern Mongolia to India and onward to South Africa. From the coasts of India, they fly over the sea to Africa covering around 3-4000 kms nonstop without touching the ground for 5-6 days.
The birds were - for the past few years - making a stopover briefly at a hill station near Mumbai for a couple of weeks and 100's of bird lovers like me make a visit to the place to watch them and get some pictures.
The falcons seem to prefer these wild lavender fields where they hunt for insects and caterpillars. They spend sometime in them walking around and looking for insects. Such fields are spread over the lakebed and the birds keep flying between them.
Many thanks in advance for your views and feedback. Much appreciated.

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.
Situé sur une voie de migration littorale à proximité de l’océan et de la Loire, le lac de Grand-Lieu accueille 270 espèces d’oiseaux, ce qui en fait la deuxième réserve ornithologique française après la Camargue. Le Lac de Grand-Lieu est un site fragile qui forme un réservoir exceptionnel pour la biodiversité, C'est la 2ème réserve ornithologique de France après la Camargue qui abrite plus de 270 espèces d’oiseaux, 550 espèces de végétaux y sont recensées, plus de 50 espèces de mammifères sont présentes, ainsi que 30 espèces de poissons et 12 espèces de batraciens. De ce fait, il est protégé par de nombreux dispositifs environnementaux : il y a 2 réserves naturelles qui protègent le lac qui est inscrit au titre de la convention de Ramsar, comme l’une des plus belles zones humides d’Europe. Le lac est classé Natura 2000 (Site d’intérêt communautaire et Zone de Protection Spéciale), est classé, aussi, au titre de la Loi de 1930 sur 7500 ha, englobant le lac et ses rives (JO du 24 août 1982). La totalité du site inscrit couvre 32 ensembles bordant le lac, ZNIEFF de type I sur 6281 ha et bénéficie de l’application de la Loi Littoral. L’accès aux réserves du lac de Grand-Lieu est strictement interdit sans autorisation. La baignade, la pêche et toutes activités nautiques y sont donc interdites mais les affluents du lac et la base de loisirs de la Boulogne sont autant de terrains de jeux pour la pratique de ces activités. Pour observer le lac de Grand-Lieu, rendez-vous dans l’une des fenêtres ouvertes au public.
Located on a coastal migration route near the ocean and the Loire, Lake Grand-Lieu is home to 270 species of birds, making it the second largest ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue. The Lac de Grand-Lieu is a fragile site which forms an exceptional reservoir for biodiversity. It is the 2nd ornithological reserve in France after the Camargue which is home to more than 270 species of birds, 550 species of plants are listed there, more 50 species of mammals are present, as well as 30 species of fish and 12 species of batrachians. As a result, it is protected by many environmental devices: there are 2 nature reserves that protect the lake, which is listed under the Ramsar Convention as one of the most beautiful wetlands in Europe. The lake is classified Natura 2000 (Site of Community Interest and Special Protection Zone), is also classified under the Law of 1930 on 7500 ha, encompassing the lake and its shores (JO of August 24, 1982). The entire registered site covers 32 sets bordering the lake, ZNIEFF type I over 6281 ha and benefits from the application of the Coastal Law. Access to the Grand-Lieu lake reserves is strictly prohibited without authorization. Swimming, fishing and all nautical activities are therefore prohibited there, but the tributaries of the lake and the Boulogne leisure center are all playgrounds for the practice of these activities. To observe the lake of Grand-Lieu, go to one of the windows open to the public.

No, not a bird, in fact I never really shoot insects, but this monarch in cloudy conditions with goldenrod blurred in the background I couldn't resist...
This spring I heard the soft gurgling song of an Eastern Bluebird. I thought it couldn't possibly be, since bluebirds don't inhabit the woods. I looked up and there she was looking around, just long enough for me to get a shot off. She could see this wasn't the right place for her to raise her family. Our property surrounded by large trees just wouldn't do. Glad she stopped by.
This Cooper's Hawk saw a lot to whet his appetite with all of the birds that made a stop in our woods during migration.
Lots of warblers on the move in the last few days .Fall migration is happening here.

A Baird's Sandpiper (Calidris bairdii) stops over on its southerly migration. It feeds in the shallows and rests along the shoreline of Miquelon Lakes southeast of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
