Most pups tend to sleep off a rather large meal. This grey seal pup was very lively and a complete cutey... lots of engagement with the camera.

 

Donna Nook is a wonderful place to visit on the Lincolnshire coast. There tends to be a really biting cold wind coming in from the sea but you forget all that with the wonders of what is on that beach. My friend and I witnessed a birth and..... unfortunately lots of fighting between naturally protective mothers protecting their pups and males wanting their pick of who to mate with. Then of course there are the numerous pups who, when awake, will grace your camera with some lovely images.

 

Photographed at Donna Nook, UK

Most of them have now left the place.

I did this photo of this one through my window

yes this is a kind of test :)

That's why I'm above him

 

La plupart d'entre eux ont maintenant quitté les lieux.

J'ai fait cette photo de celui-ci à travers ma fenêtre

Oui en quelque sorte c'est aussi un test :)

C'est pour cela que je suis au dessus

Hibiscus In temperate zones, probably the most commonly grown ornamental species is Hibiscus syriacus, the common garden hibiscus, also known in some areas as the "Rose of Althea" or "Rose of Sharon" (but not to be confused with the unrelated Hypericum calycinum, also called "Rose of Sharon"). In tropical and subtropical areas, the Chinese hibiscus (H. rosa-sinensis), with its many showy hybrids, is the most popular hibiscus.

the most entertaining bird in my yard. Stephen, as we have dubbed him, has visited four of the vacant houses in the back yard and done a little building in each. He sings constantly and does not mind posing for the occasional photo.

The most noticeable characteristics of the American red squirrel are the tail and the eye ring. The tree squirrel's tail is bushy and dark red with hints of a white outline. The eye ring is a thick, white circle around the rodent's black eyes. American red squirrels are about 12 inches and have grayish, red, or rust-colored fur with a white belly. Sometimes a black stripe can be seen on the sides.

In most cities, alleys are usually seen as places you don’t go into after dark. But, I find they make for interesting black and white photography. Like most cities, Windsor, Ontario has it’s share of deserted alleys waiting to be photographed.

Most part of Niagara Falls' ice melted compared to last Sunday. The tree was not covered with ice anymore. Still freezing cold in the early morning, tried to capture the last white Niagara falls photos in the early morning ...

 

Freezing cold, my fingers hurts... Guess which finger hurts the most ? ;))

 

Enjoy your peaceful weekend my dear friends!

Now the commonest and most widespread UK bird of prey. The buzzard is quite large with broad, rounded wings, and a short neck and tail. When gliding and soaring it will often hold its wings in a shallow 'V' and the tail is fanned. Buzzards are variable in colour from all dark brown to much paler variations, all have dark wingtips and a finely barred tail. Their plaintive mewing call could be mistaken for a cat.

What they eat: Buzzards tend to eat small mammals, birds and carrion. Even earthworms and large insects when other prey is in short supply.

Most of the time in the morning I take my two dogs Lucky and Lara to our favorite place near the beach. They love the fresh air and they enjoy investigating every single spot where another dog has passed by. I dedicate this photograph to both of them! It's one more morning that we are together and that for me is a real blessing! One more sunrise in our lives!....

Kuznetsky Most is one of the most beautiful pedestrian streets in the historical center of Moscow.

The street got its modern - and at the same time historical - name thanks to the Kuznetsky Bridge across the Neglinnaya River. Today, Kuznetsky Most Street attracts citizens with its high-quality landscaping, an abundance of architectural monuments and an unusual relief: due to the significant difference in heights between Petrovka and Rozhdestvenka, the city landscape looks especially picturesque.

Kuznetskaya Sloboda on the high bank of the Neglinnaya River - Neglinnaya Upper - appeared in the 12th century, but its heyday came only at the end of the 15th, when the Cannon Yard was built in the vicinity, and the Moscow prince Ivan III ordered to settle in it blacksmiths and grooms who served new production. At the turn of the 15th-16th centuries, Novgorod and Pskov were annexed to the Moscow principality, and craftsmen of various professions from these cities were moved to the Neglinny Upper.

In 1737, the street burned out during the Trinity fire, but rather quickly new buildings were built on it, in which foreign shops began to be located. Gradually, the street turned into the abode of foreign trade: the French showed particular zeal, opening fashion and haberdashery shops here, thanks to which Kuznetsky Most became the main shopping street in Moscow. During World War II and the fire of 1812, it practically did not suffer from the fire, since the French guard took over the protection of the business of compatriots. After the war, trade flourished again, and many fashionable shops were opened on it (almost all of them were foreign, most of them were French). The abundance of foreign shops made Kuznetsky Most the most fashionable and aristocratic street in Moscow, which it remained until the 1917 Revolution.

During the Soviet era, the street lost part of the historical buildings, many buildings were rebuilt, and the street gradually took on a modern look.

After the reconstruction carried out in 2012, the Kuznetsky Most section from Bolshaya Dmitrovka to Rozhdestvenka became pedestrian.

Today Kuznetsky Most Street is a well-maintained pedestrian zone, where city holidays and festivals are often held.

Despite the losses of the Soviet years, a large number of architectural monuments have been preserved on it: tenement houses, partially preserved city estates and passages. Among them are famous Moscow sights: the building of the Moscow International Trade Bank, Khomyakov's trading house and others.

This is the most popular subject to photograph on the Isle of Skye and understandably so. The rock stacks making up the structure - the old man, the needle and the other features that escape me - are like something out of Lord of the Rings. You wouldn’t be all that surprised to see a dragon flying overhead with all that gothic looking geology going on around you.

The day I was there was wet, cold and very windy making it difficult conditions to catch any shots never mind taking the time to get some HDR exposures. I had timed the trip to be there for sundown but the clouds were so thick and low that there no chance of getting any nice colour. So here we have a colour image of the stormy weather conditions on the Storr mountain ridge. Maybe I’ll get better luck on the weather next time.

Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments - Chandana

Good Friday morning everyone, and hoping that a great and safe weekend will be had by all.

 

I thought that the last Yellow Crown would be the last, but thought this was the most interesting position of the series, although not the best image. Just the position of this guy trying to maneuver a way to get out of the place he was in, I thought it was very clever, and from keeping his wings from hitting the trees, only my opinion.

 

Thanks to all for everything.

Like most of Galapagos, Sombrero Chino (Chinese Hat) is volcanic in origin. The exploration path starts with a gorgeous beach, bright red Sally Lightfoot crabs and marine iguanas. The path goes past a colony of endemic Galapagos sea lions before passing a lava field: look for the lava cactus growing in the cracks. On the beach, keep your eyes open for the American Oystercatcher, a wading bird with a distinctive orange beak. On the trail, you may see lava lizards.

The Flame-faced Tanager is one of the most spectacular members of the diverse and exceptionally colorful genus Tangara. Living up to its common name, the forehead begins as a deep glimmering red, shading into a brilliant yellow on the nape and sides of the head. This "flame" contrasts sharply with the jet black back. The Flame-faced Tanager is a common member in mixed species foraging flocks in the canopy of humid montane forest from the Andes of extreme southwest Venezuela south to central Peru. It forages exclusively along mossy branches and occasionally peering at the underside in search of arthropods. There are three subspecies of the Flame-faced Tanager, described based mostly on minor differences in plumage. The species is typically found from 1000-2600 m and is most numerous above 1500 m. The IUCN Red list assesses the Flame-faced Tanager as a species of Least Concern; however, the population size is declining due to habitat destruction. Thus, the Flame-faced Tanager should become the focus of future studies.

 

Have a Peaceful Saturday!

Barn Owl - Tyto Alba

  

Like most owls, the barn owl is nocturnal, relying on its acute sense of hearing when hunting in complete darkness. It often becomes active shortly before dusk and can sometimes be seen during the day when relocating from one roosting site to another. In Britain, on various Pacific Islands and perhaps elsewhere, it sometimes hunts by day. This practice may depend on whether the owl is mobbed by other birds if it emerges in daylight. However, in Britain, some birds continue to hunt by day even when mobbed by such birds as magpies, rooks and black-headed gulls, such diurnal activity possibly occurring when the previous night has been wet making hunting difficult. By contrast, in southern Europe and the tropics, the birds seem to be almost exclusively nocturnal, with the few birds that hunt by day being severely mobbed.

 

Barn owls are not particularly territorial but have a home range inside which they forage. For males in Scotland this has a radius of about 1 km (0.6 mi) from the nest site and an average size of about 300 hectares. Female home ranges largely coincide with that of their mates. Outside the breeding season, males and females usually roost separately, each one having about three favoured sites in which to conceal themselves by day, and which are also visited for short periods during the night. Roosting sites include holes in trees, fissures in cliffs, disused buildings, chimneys and haysheds and are often small in comparison to nesting sites. As the breeding season approaches, the birds move back to the vicinity of the chosen nest to roost.

 

Once a pair-bond has been formed, the male will make short flights at dusk around the nesting and roosting sites and then longer circuits to establish a home range. When he is later joined by the female, there is much chasing, turning and twisting in flight, and frequent screeches, the male's being high-pitched and tremulous and the female's lower and harsher. At later stages of courtship, the male emerges at dusk, climbs high into the sky and then swoops back to the vicinity of the female at speed. He then sets off to forage. The female meanwhile sits in an eminent position and preens, returning to the nest a minute or two before the male arrives with food for her. Such feeding behaviour of the female by the male is common, helps build the pair-bond and increases the female's fitness before egg-laying commences.

 

Barn owls are cavity nesters. They choose holes in trees, fissures in cliff faces, the large nests of other birds such as the hamerkop (Scopus umbretta) and, particularly in Europe and North America, old buildings such as farm sheds and church towers. Buildings are preferred to trees in wetter climates in the British Isles and provide better protection for fledglings from inclement weather. Trees tend to be in open habitats rather than in the middle of woodland and nest holes tend to be higher in North America than in Europe because of possible predation.

 

This bird has suffered declines through the 20th century and is thought to have been adversely affected by organochlorine pesticides such as DDT in the 1950s and '60s.

 

Nocturnal birds like the barn owl are poorly monitored by the Breeding Bird Survey and, subject to this caveat, numbers may have increased between 1995-2008.

 

Barn owls are a Schedule 1 and 9 species.

"THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FACE OF NATURE"

Driving home the other day I noticed three deer so inquisitive, watching a couple and a golden retriever walking by. Everybody was staring at everybody, so I stopped and took a picture of the deer.

I got this one here on a midnight dare at a border town

Every time he stuck that needle in my skin, she had to look away

Had him put it right here on my chest, over my heart

That Rose of Jericho looks so good painted underneath her name

It hurt like hell, yeah, but it was worth the pain

 

When I'm missing her, I take another shot

I know it ain't the cure, but right now, it's all I got

She took most of me, and now all that I have left

Are tattoos to remember, tequila to forget

 

Just another neon-rollercoaster Friday night

Bartender wiping down that bar while he keeps an eye on me

And I sure hope he ain't about to cut me off

'Cause I'm only one or two away

From getting my head where it needs to be

 

Most stunning sunrise we ever saw!! Such spectacular colors!

 

Mooiste zonsopkomst die we ooit hebben gezien!! Doodstil, we waren er alleen, en dan , als de zon boven de horizon komt beginnen alle vogels te fluiten. En overweldigende kleuren! Eigenlijk niet over te brengen op een foto.

Most people perceive darkness as negative. however, i feel safe in the dark. Not everyone can see right through you. You can observe from the dark without being noticed. Thus you recognize the truth from the darkness. And even if it hurts. The truth is positive.
