In 2006 I had two times the opportunity to migrate into the valley of the Havasupai Indians and see this magnificent waterfall and take pictures of course. Unfortunately, destroyed a flood in 2008 a part of the beautiful lime sinter terraces .
The Havasupai Indians are also called "the people of the blue-green water". Blue-green has been the water the day before. In the night, however, it had rained heavily in the mountains, so that in the early morning a red-brown muddy broth rolled into the valley, probably a not-often-seen drama.
Unfortunately, a strong wind blew, so a fine spray of dirty water dyed everything including the camera.
In 2006 hatte ich zwei mal die Gelegenheit, in das Tal der Havasupai Indianer zu wandern und diesen großartigen Wasserfall zu sehen und natürlich zu fotografieren. Leider zerstörte eine Flut im Jahr 2008 einen Teil der schönen Kalk-Sinter-Terrassen.
Die Havasupai Indianer werden auch "die Leute vom blaugrünen Wasser" genannt. Blau-grün ist das Wasser auch am Tag vorher gewesen. In der Nacht hatte es jedoch in den Bergen stark geregnet, so dass sich am frühen Morgen überraschend eine rot-braune schlammige Brühe in das Tal wälzte, vermutlich ein nicht oft gesehenes Schauspiel.
Leider wehte ein starker Wind, weshalb sich ein feiner Sprühnebel des schmutzigen Wassers auf alles einschliesslich der Kamera legte.

Glossy Ibis- Plegadis Falcinellus
Flocks of Glossy Ibis forage quite close together, advancing slowly as they probe a muddy area. This activity often attracts Snowy Egrets and other species of waders, which capture minnows and other prey moving away from the feeding ibis flocks.
Glossy Ibises nest in colonies, often among other species of ibis, heron, egret, or spoonbill. Colonial nesters have the advantage of many extra sets of eyes looking out for predators. Colonies might also be places where highly gregarious species like ibises can share information about the most productive foraging areas.
Glossy Ibis is a cosmopolitan species, also found in Europe, Asia, and Africa. In recent decades, its population in Spain has been increasing rapidly, probably helped by increased rice cultivation there. Glossy Ibises banded in Spain have turned up as far away as Barbados, having crossed the Atlantic—a remarkable feat but one that several species of heron and egret have managed as well.
The oldest recorded Glossy Ibis was at least 21 years old and lived in Virginia between 1971 and 1992.
A snow storm was looming in the background and the Sandhill cranes were gathering, they must have been in a very muddy field.
If you're a blues fan then this title may (literally) sing/play to you.
This landscape of a waterscape was captured in 2009. The reduced quality of sharpness of this point-and-click shot leant itself very much to a romantic painterly feel in the editing process.

A puddle of muddy water in the woods can be as beautiful as a golden lake or a wide blue ocean, in the right light !

for a peaceful Caturday!
A closer portrait of the cub in first comment!
We were surprised to see so many Cinnamon Teals in one place. They have opened a new area in Las Gallinas that makes for superb viewing of these ducks. Interestingly, the Cinnamon Teal is a close relative of the Blue-winged Teal (and sometimes hybridizing with it).
Most of the Great Salt Lake shoreline is muddy and difficult to access. If you look carefully, you will see some white near the water; in this case, it's not salt but seafoam.
The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the shot.
No comments today – just enjoy :-)
This is what climate change brings: muddy warm days instead of snow, ice and cold. I miss the white winter!
