Need to go Large on this one if you have time
This must be one of the most low contrast shots I have ever posted. The grey seals and the mud they are fighting in merge together totally. The fight was as ever over territory and they kept it up for some time with no clear result. It could even be seen as a metaphor for the crazy times we are living in.
It was taken at the Donna Nook reserve on the Lincolnshire coast

This Pacific golden plover has been probing the rain soaked ground for earthworms and insects. There is mud on its bill and head. But my favorite detail is the adorable eyelashes. (View large.)
Camouflaged for ground nesting, the Kolea (Pluvialis fulva) annually migrates from breeding grounds in Alaska and Siberia to tropical Pacific islands over thousands of miles of open ocean. After 3 to 4 days and nights of non-stop flying it arrives at the first landfall, Hawaii. A magnificent navigator, it uses the stars and the earth’s magnetic field to find the exact same location each year. This one winters in Hawaii. Some continue on into the southern hemisphere as far as New Zealand.
Low tide at Cockwood reveals silt mud more mud and more silt and a boat or two resting in the mud.

A mudder in horse racing is a horse that runs well on a muddy track. As we watched this young bison calf running full speed through the mud and water of French Creek in Custer State Park, South Dakota, I told my wife, "he's a mudder".
The sleeping Mud Maid was created by local artists Sue Hill and her brother, Pete. This, and their other mud sculpture The Giant's Head, were designed to enhance the woodland experience, following the fashion of Victorian ornamentation.

After spending the night at the Bristlecone Pines National Forest (29° F), I made my way down to Death Valley (96° F) to see about the sunset on the Mesquite Sand Dunes.
Every time you visit the Dunes is a totally different experience. The possible comps out there are limitless, and you never know what you will find.
On this trip, I was fascinated with this particular patch of baked mud, and the shape of the sand dunes in the background.
I don't normally do a lot of black and white photos, but this just seems to really work well on this photo.

Elsa would do anything for the Blythe a Day community, but she is not 100% convinced about getting into the mud today...
Fortunately she heard that it has been previously stablished by Jude (Mayra's dollie) that a glass of wine makes you not to fuss too much.

Sometimes standing up after a mud bath presents problems for little elephants. Keeping their feet under them on slippery ground is a learned art.
Conforme se retira la marea va dejando al descubierto una orilla llena de alimento, pero también cubierta del fango más fino.

As the tide recedes, it reveals a shore full of food, but also covered in the finest mud.

Huntington Beach State Park about a half hour before sunrise. "Pluff mud" is a low country South Carolina (and maybe others? I'm a transplant) for brackish swampy mud with a peculiar odor similar to a pulp mill...this place doesn't actually have the odor, though.
"The sun goes down, and over all
These barren reaches by the tide
Such unelusive glories fall,
I almost dream they yet will bide
Until the coming of the tide. ..."
