The bald eagle is an opportunistic feeder that subsists mainly on fish, upon which it swoops down and snatches from the water with its talons.
Cookie is our first female rabbit and as such we've never experience nesting before. We did notice quite a bit of fur in her hutch last week but it wasn't until this weekend that we saw her collecting grass from the garden.
Poor Dylan (who no longer has the baby making facilities) just watched from a distance as Cookie went back and forth to her hutch. Occasionally he'd jump in too to have a look, but a few growls from Cookie soon put him in his place.
Of course, now we're all wondering if the operation was actually a success...
Well partner, you said that you would like some storage, so I was thinking about making you a nesting bowl or two. I haven't made that pattern before, so I made the 4 inch version to try it out. I would be making yours in your color picks and in a larger size, so no worries if this one isn't to your taste. It will probably become my thread catcher unless you really love it.
A couple of questions for you: Do you like the scrappy patchwork look, or would you prefer some mini blocks for the decorative panel on yours? Would you prefer a solid or maybe a linen for the main fabric, or would you like something like the black crosshatch I used here? Would you like me to add a handle or two? And most importantly, what sizes would be most useful for you?
If you really dislike it, or would prefer I make you something else, please say so. You won't hurt my feelings. I want to make something you will enjoy and actually use. :)
Photographed during a visit to see Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, which is a famous rope bridge near Ballintoy in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The bridge links the mainland to the tiny island of Carrickarede. It spans 20 metres and is 30 metres above the rocks below. The island was originally used by salmon fishermen.
I added this photo a couple of days ago and after some negative comments that made me feel bad i decided to remove it, after explaining that i hadnt climb the tree or frighten the bird as i can see her and the nest clearly from my upstairs windows. Though i appreciate and understand there are people that would disturb the nest and scare away the birds, i have if anything kept an eye out for her. She has nested right near a pavement and can be seen clearly from the street, after many sleepness night chasing away neighbourhood cats , many a times climbing to the nest, the babies have now hatched, i will continue to look out for her and not made to feel bad, hence why im putting the photo back up.
I am off out to get some bits and bobs
and hunt for a vintage slip for my little sis
as she has asked me to cutomise a dress for her
kinda like merging a dress with a slip.
I cannot wait !!!!!
as this is my passion ..... reinventing garments
and in the new year with more time allowing I hope to do this more
and pop pieces into my Etsy Shop
I still have some vintage slips for sale like this one
and maybe on my travels today I will be lucky enough to find some more.
Have yourselves a super Saturday

This old windmill made a great nesting place for a bird of prey. Although there was no visible wildlife while photographing the Carrizo Plain area near dusk.
A highland dwelling Goldfinch.
Isn't quite as crisp as I'd like but that's what happens with a 600mm equivalent handheld at f/6.7.
Nesting swallows on the old workshop. Luckily the fan is not in action. The swallows collected the clay for the nest from a dish I put out each spring. In dry seasons it can be difficult for the swallows to build the nest. Photo Kevin Keatley. Camera Nikon D800, Lens 70-200@175mm, F9, 1/250 sec., ISO 320. Camera and flash on manual.
Wandering around Black River Marsh yesterday morning, my peace and quiet was disturbed by some non-stop honking. I discovered the source-a nesting pair of Canada geese who were strongly objecting to another pair attempting to invade their turf. Perhaps the newcomers had not seen the nesters hidden in the tall marsh grass. Conflict resolution was accomplished and all became peaceful once more. Sigh!
Birds nesting on a remote rock. This was the first time I used my newls aquired 2x converter. It did a pretty neat job in combination with the 70-200.
Some extra gifts for you Partner, two sizes nesting bowls made of some crazy/funny snowman fabric. I hope you like them, because it’s about time to wrap up the gifts and ship them.
If you don’t like them, that’s OK because I would not have a problem to keep them!

Cormorants nesting on rugged coastal rocks at Point Lobos State Reserve, California
Following a significant bit of photography near the end of April and the beginning of May, I had hardly picked up my camera for nearly a month — and I was itching to get out and make new photographs. Time was still tight, but I found a free day and headed off to the coastal areas of the Monterey Peninsula and the northern reaches of the Big Sur coastline, ending up at Point Lobos. Frankly, as much as I wanted to make photographs, I also simply wanted to get outside for a bit, and a morning of hiking and photographing here fit the bill perfectly.
The rock in the distance on which some cormorants are nesting is actually an island — an island that at some times of year is covered with many hundreds of all kinds of shore birds. This time there were far fewer. It could have been a seasonal thing, or it might be related to the changes in ocean temperature that have caused harm to marine mammals this season. In any case, I thought it would be interesting to juxtapose the small group of black birds with a landscape of rugged rock, so I wandered a bit until I found this camera position that put nothing but rocks between me and the island.

Went out with a friend and she spotted this bird building a nest. Can't wait to see how things go!
Northern Parula
We found a female nesting near the Demonstration Garden at Boyce Thompson Arboretum near Superior, Ariz.
I think it might be either a broad-tailed or an Anna's; anyone know for sure?
The Charadrius vociferus, also known as "Killdeer" is nesting within the grass. She never got up when I crawled up toward her, but kept a watchful eye. A bit late for nesting, but better late than never!

Roasted shrimp halves seasoned with black tea, on a bed of julienned and deep-fried carrots, beets, zucchini, and potatoes.
Lighting: An SB-800 camera left and behind the subject, an SB-600 pointed at the back wall, and a silver reflector camera right.
Ravens, red-tails, barn owls, great horned owls, prairie falcons, peregrine falcons, golden eagles, and large numbers of passerine songbirds such as cliff swallows all use cliffs throughout the high desert for nesting.
Tree bumble bees have taken over the nest above this one so I gently opened the lid to check on our blue tits - how lovely is this? I hope the bees leave her alone ....
Hope everyone is having a lovely Easter :)
Here is a little Easter themed photo I created this weekend.
