I bought this beautiful art piece from a lady in Trumansburg.

 

Bison tracks through the geothermal runoff at the Grand Prismatic. The vibrant color is from thermophiles living in the hot geyser runoff. In the winter, the bison will hang out near the geothermal pools for warmth. Those are some brave soles ... or souls ... either way. Is it just me or are the tracks moving in different directions?

These Red Knots were just amazing to see in large numbers at Plum Island yesterday. Here they're pictured with turnstones as they continue their massive northward migration.

Migration

Over Luzon, Philippines

A bonus Tennessee Warbler foraging in the same area as the Hooded Warbler. Don't you love when that happens?

Snow and Ross geese, sandhill cranes and glossy faced ibis, fill the sky just days before their final migration north. A little bit of heaven. Thank you Donald, Mike and Alex.

A Northern Parula Warbler on the backside of the water feature. This warbler is very weary and will only barely bath in the water and hopping back out.

The waterfowl return to the Puget Sound. While some will stay here, others continue south.

They are flying away... but you can pull them closer...

Just specks in the sky, but what a wondrous thing to see. Common cranes which have overwintered in Spain start their journey over the Pyrenees back to their nesting sites . We were lucky enough to witness these migrations on a number of occasions .

Life in the tall grass

Many egrets in the back swamps of the Mississippi bottoms. All getting ready to migrate. This one to save its meal few off with its fish

Après la période de reproduction, les grues se regroupent en nombre parfois imposant pour partir en migration et hiverner dans des zones plus accueillantes.

Ces mouvements ne passent pas inaperçus, les grues se faisant parfois entendre à plusieurs kilomètres.

in the end.

We were looking for the big herds on 10 safari days.

At least we saw them on our very last day south of Naabi hill moving into the Ndutu area, where we´ve been 4 days before.

Bad timing, but a lucky end.

The Wanderer butterfly made its way to Australia, possibly by island-hopping from the Americas, where it is known as the Monarch. It might not have become such a wide-spread inhabitant if it had not been followed by the introduction of its food plant - milkweed.

These days you could be excused for thinking they are the only butterflies in some rural areas or city parks. They are the only species I have seen packing whole trees with massive numbers as they do in Mexico and the USA.

There were about 50 grebes moving between open water spots and running across the ice. Some would fly and they looked so akward

Crane migration is always in season at the Wildlife Safari Park near Ashland, NE.

Bull Elk trek to the Winter feeding grounds.

When the dust settles and the migration moves on .........

Just love the migration but how challenging at time. One need a lot of patience.
