Hi there,

There's nothing quite like a male Wood Duck that's dressed up in its breeding plumage. I just love its red eye!

Thank you for taking the time to view and for leaving me a comment! Have a wonderful day!

I think he is one of Disney characters, I liked the look on his face, sometimes I have it !!

Mr. E. seen here complaining bitterly when I insisted that he come inside this morning, when the temperature reached 98f. He is a vocally very argumentative cat, as sweet as can be when he decides he wants physical contact, but combatively resists any attempts of control that he does not approve of (and of course, his approval varies day to day). 😍

Hello Everyone,

As common as they might be, I always enjoy seeing Mallards. I spotted this drake a few days ago at a local park.

Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving a comment. I do love hearing from you!

Have a fantastic day!

Spring came early in this region of Portugal. We were foraging mushrooms and a friend decided to show me around. Here we are in a beautiful farm somewhere in the valley of the mountains. As we descended on a 4X4 to the farm I felt like sitting in the cinema being transported to another realm as usually seen on cinematography. It was magical. I will certainly return here again when the weather is more permitting to shoot more images.

Lovely to see a good number of 'Zebbies' around Sneydes Rd. yesterday.

Unfortunately, the walls are very friable and the erosion tears on average 0.73 m per year.

The most widely distributed of its genus, the Amethyst Woodstar is found in a great variety of habitats throughout its circum-Amazonian distribution. The male is mainly bronzy green above with a prominently forked tail, white sides to the rump, and a striking amethyst-colored throat, bordered by a white breast band. The female has a green-spotted white throat, orange-rufous sides to the underparts, and a narrow white line behind the eye. The Amethyst Woodstar has been recorded taking the nectar of a large number of plant species, and at least occasionally the species hawks insects in flight. This woodstar is probably largely sedentary, but local movements potentially occur, though have yet to be proven. The species is usually not uncommon, but is rather rare and has perhaps declined in northeast Argentina, and is very poorly known in Colombia. Züchner, T. and G. M. Kirwan (2020).

The lovely Mr Whiskers.

The cat (Felis catus) is a small carnivorous mammal. It is the only domesticated species in the family Felidae

and often referred to as the domestic cat to distinguish it from wild members of the family. The cat is either a house cat or a farm cat, which are pets, or a feral cat, which ranges freely and avoids human contact.

Have a lovely day and look after yourself

Lovely evening in the national park of Malalcahuello, amazing valley full of araucarias. This lonely specie was a extraordinary case for my shoot, Chile.
