I bumped up the contrast and added some darkness to this photo. I wanted to do something different with my nature photos and evoke a sense of unease.
Il Golden Pass Classic con i suoi vagoni d’epoca viene regolarmente effettuato con una Be 4/4 di recente costruzione ad ogni lato, creando un particolare contrasto tra vecchio e nuovo. La prima corsa del mattino da Montreux a Zweisimmen ha raggiunto i Pays d’Enhaut e si situa a Rossinière. Alcune tracce nella neve sono state rimosse digitalmente.
Der Golden Pass Classic mit seinen Oldtimer-Wagen wird regelmässig mit einem neu gebauten Be 4/4 pro Seite gefühet, was einen besonderen Kontrast zwischen Alt und Neu schafft. Die erste Morgenfahrt von Montreux nach Zweisimmen erreichte das Pays d'Enhaut und befindet sich in Rossinière. Einige Spuren im Schnee wurden digital entfernt.
I have had a few recent shots showing some of our glass birds made by the recently retired Tasmanian glass blowing artist, James Dodson. I thought I would feature them in a nice line-up.
From left to right, we have: - Galah, Eastern Rosella, Gang Gang Cockatoo, Rainbow Lorikeet, Red Robin, Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, Crimson Rosella, Masked Owl, Azure Kingfisher, New Holland Honeyeater, Yellow Throated Honeyeater, Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoo, Fairy Penguin, Superb Fairy Wren and finally, the Australian Laughing Kookaburra.
They are pleased to meet you!
The little wren and robin were the two original ones we first bought, and as you can see, over the last 40 years that he has been making them, they gradually increased in size and colours featured. Our two most recent additions for us were the Azure Kingfisher and the Kookaburra. I just went online to see what else I could buy, but they are getting incredibly hard to find now. Very lucky to have this little mob!
(I am entering this image in a lot of bird groups, but if glass bird ornaments do not officially count as birds, I will fully understand if the group administrators don't wish to have the image in your group.)
Happy (Glass) Feathery Friday!
The "sardine" flash-mob is born from the idea of being all squeezed in the square: many, tight as sardines in a can, supporting values such as democracy, freedom, solidarity, Europe

A #stayathome activity due to the covid19 situation. Please stay safe everyone.

Flash Mob in Lisbon that gathered in the subway a few dozens of participants all dressed in underwear
The Minecraft 2023 Mob Vote Crab, my second favourite Mob that was robbed- I mean that lost the Mob Vote, right behind the Copper Golem (which inspired my other moc CU-29).
Made for the Time For Crab community collab!
(Thank you a9 for the large claw design, genuinely put my design to shame)
On a misty morning, a herring purse seiner bringing in a net loaded with herring is mobbed by herring gulls and a a couple of bald eagles. During the spring herring spawn the activity is intense with whales, sea birds and other wildlife gathering to participate in the feast. A lone spot of colour is added to the photo by the orange life raft visible through the mob of birds. Sitka Sound, Alaska.

This is only part of a huge number of just "hatched" Milkweed Tussock Moth caterpillars. They will move around as a group until they get larger, systematically skeletonizing the milkweed leaves.

Commuters pack the exit ramp off the platform at Agincourt GO station after stepping off a northbound Stouffville train which is bound for Old Elm. Travelers can make connections to the TTC subway and busses at Kennedy station, and will **soon** be able to connect to the Eglinton crosstown LRT whenever that mob racket finally opens to the public...
George, the male red kangaroo, is the leader of the group, and also the father of several other roos in the mob.
This is George's expression during the time the roos met the scimitar horned oryx. He turned for only a moment to glance at me. I dare say that George recognizes me, but not the oryx!
Meerkats (Suricata suricatta) are small, social mammals belonging to the mongoose family, native to the arid grasslands and deserts of Southern Africa. Famous for their cooperative behavior and upright sentry posture, they live in family groups called "mobs".
Appearance
Size: A meerkat's slender body measures 25 to 35 centimeters (10–14 inches) long, with a tail nearly as long. They typically weigh less than one kilogram.
Fur: Their coats are grizzled gray and brown, with faint dark stripes across the back. This coloration helps them camouflage with their sandy environment.
Facial features: They have a pointed snout and dark patches of fur around their eyes, which act like sunglasses to reduce sun glare.
Tail: Their long, thin tail is used for balance when standing on their hind legs.
Claws: Strong, sharp claws on their forefeet are used for digging burrows and foraging for food.
Ears: The ears can be closed to keep dirt out while digging.
Habitat and distribution
Geographic range: Meerkats are found in Southern Africa, including Botswana, Namibia, Angola, and South Africa.
Ecology: They inhabit arid and open areas, such as savannas and grasslands, where they build complex underground burrow systems. These burrows provide shelter from predators and extreme temperatures.
Behaviour
Social structure: Meerkats are highly social, living in mobs of up to 50 individuals, though groups of 10 to 15 are more common. Each mob is often led by a dominant male and female.
Teamwork: A mob works together for survival. Some individuals act as sentries, standing on their hind legs to watch for predators, while others forage or care for the young.
Communication: Meerkats use a complex system of vocalizations to communicate within the group. A sentry will emit different alarm calls depending on the type and urgency of a threat.
Defense: If threatened, a mob may band together, arch their backs, and hiss to intimidate a predator.
Diet
Meerkats are omnivores, though their diet is primarily insectivorous.
They forage for food by digging in the sand using their powerful claws and keen sense of smell.
Their diet mainly includes insects, such as beetles, grubs, and termites, but they also eat spiders, scorpions, small reptiles, eggs, and occasionally plant matter like tubers.
Meerkats are notably immune to the venom of certain scorpions.
Conservation status
Least Concern: Meerkats are classified as "Least Concern" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), meaning their population is not currently at risk of extinction.
Threats: While stable, populations can be affected by factors like habitat destruction and environmental changes.
Misrepresentation: Media portrayals as friendly animals have fueled an illegal pet trade, which is harmful to the species. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) and others strongly advise against keeping them as pets.
Neue Nationalgalerie (New National Gallery) Berlin, Germany
The artist: Alexander Calder (Philadelphia 1898 - 1976 New York)
Calder mobiles are kinetic sculptures made of metal plates, wire, and other materials that are set in motion by air currents in a seemingly weightless dynamic. A wonderfully balanced interplay.
They combine abstract beauty with the principle of equilibrium.
Calder-Mobiles sind kinetische Skulpturen, die aus Metallplatten, Draht und anderen Materialien bestehen und durch Luftzug in scheinbar schwereloser Dynamik in Bewegung versetzt werden. Ein wunderbar ausbalanciertes Spiel.
Sie vereinen abstrakte Schönheit mit dem Prinzip des Gleichgewichts.

I have made an attempt to process images taken on Saturday night last, just beyond the Sally Gap. I really do not know how best to process the clouds. Hard to avoid weird colours... Lots to learn.
6 images stacked. Each 15 secs f2.2 ISO 6400 (eq mount). 24 mm on Sony A7R3.
Der Be 4/4 1003 der Chemin de fer Montreux - Oberland - Bernois steht am 26.08.2017 anlässlich seiner Abschieds-Extrafahrt auf dem 46m langen Lauciau-Viadukt zwischen La Tine und Rossinière.
Der 1958 als ABe 4/4 5 an die Ferrovia Lugano - Ponte Tresa gelieferte Triebwagen wurde 1984 an die MOB verkauft und versah dann jahrelang seinen Dienst als Triebwagen für Regionalzüge und für diverse Rangierarbeiten.
Der Triebwagen wurde trotz diverser Bestrebungen zum weiteren Erhalt am 31.10.2017 abgebrochen.
