And for Studio 26, assignment on color -- resorting to produce, which is much more colorful than our surroundings right now.
Butter Paneer Masala is a North Indian delicacy that is made by cooking Indian cottage cheese in a rich and creamy onion-tomato-cashew sauce. It is also listed as Paneer Makhani, or Shahi paneer.
Geladas are not actually baboons but a species in their own right. They can only be found on the escarpments and gorges of Ethiopia's highlands where there is little nutritious food. Hence they spend much of their waking day shuffling around on their bottoms eating grasses and tubers which they uproot with their strongly nailed fingers.
Dandelions collected on my urban morning walk. Well washed in several changes of cold water. Shaken dry and bagged for fridge. They make a tasty and highly-nutritious addition to a mixed greens salad.
I'm not crazy. Many well-known 'foodies' recommend it. There's an interesting short video with Mark Bittman and others demonstrating urban foraging.

Very high in Vitamin A, especially!
A bit of history:
Wikipedia:
"Dandelions are thought to have evolved about 30 million years ago in Eurasia. Fossil seeds of †Taraxacum tanaiticum have been recorded from the Pliocene of southern Russia. Dandelions have been used by humans for food and as an herb for much of recorded history. They were well known to ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, and have been used in Chinese traditional medicine for over a thousand years. Dandelions probably arrived in North America on the Mayflower--not as stowaways, but brought on purpose for their medicinal benefits."
Osprey in Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Florida. I was very fortunate and privileged to witness this feast for a good 45 minutes. The head is always the most nutritious part.
Quamash is a wild flower that grows from a bulb in fields. The bulb is highly nutritious and the natives used to harvest them. There is a similar plant whose bulb is poisonous however, so I wouldn't advise rushing out and trying them without further research...(Taken at the Cedar Hill Golf Club/King's Pond Trail, BC.)

"Are koalas drunk? It's a common myth that gets spread around as an explanation for why koalas sleep so much!
We're here to debunk that myth!
Koalas only eat gum leaves ... that part is true, but the leaves don't cause them to get drunk or high. Instead, the leaves have low nutritious value, with high fibre content, making them very slow to digest.
As a result, they don't give the koalas much energy, causing them to sleep all day! It also allows the koalas to conserve their energy, so it's ready when they need it, getting away from a predator, for example.
If you compare it to the human species, it would be like a human eating McDonalds or Hungry Jacks or any other fast food all day, week or year and then trying to run a marathon. It just wouldn't work! There would be no nutrition and not enough energy to sustain that physical output.
So next time you see a koala having a snooze, remember they're not drunk or high, they're living the life we all secretly wish we could have! Eating junk food and sleeping all day it sounds perfect, doesn't it!"
cairnszoom.com.au/are-koalas-drunk/
This makes me worry somewhat about the information that zoos are distributing ... I can categorically deny that I wish for a junk food lifestyle ... Sleeping all day ... Mmmm ... the jury's still out on that one! Sleeping through the night, now that would be good.

A zebra is easy to recognize because people have seen it before, but an eland is not so easy to recognize. A description of an eland is seen below.
Wikipedia - The common eland (Taurotragus oryx), also known as the southern eland or eland antelope, is a savannah and plains antelope found in East and Southern Africa. It is a species of the family Bovidae and genus Taurotragus. It was first described by Peter Simon Pallas in 1766. An adult male is around 1.6 metres (5') tall at the shoulder (females are 20 centimetres (8") shorter) and can weigh up to 942 kg (2077 lbs) with an average of 500–600 kilograms (1,100–1,300 lb, 340–445 kilograms (750–980 lb) for females). It is the second largest antelope in the world, being slightly smaller on average than the giant eland.
Mainly an herbivore, its diet is primarily grasses and leaves. Common elands form herds of up to 500 animals, but are not territorial. The common eland prefers habitats with a wide variety of flowering plants such as savannah, woodlands, and open and montane grasslands; it avoids dense forests. It uses loud barks, visual and postural movements and the flehmen response to communicate and warn others of danger. The common eland is used by humans for leather, meat, and rich, nutritious milk, and has been domesticated in many areas.
It is native to Botswana, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, South Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe but is no longer present in Burundi and Angola. While the common eland's population is decreasing, it is classified as "Least Concern" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).

Arugula; earth cress; arucula; Persian mustard; pinch; Rugula are the most common names in Portuguese.
Eruca Vesicaria is a species originating in the Mediterranean and West Asian region, having propagated to other continents. It can be occasionally found as spontaneous species also in Central Europe, Central Asia, North America and Australia. It is one of the many edible wild plants whose nutritious value is invaluable. Voted for forgetfulness during Sleeplasses Romanaria returned to be highlighted, having been reintroduced successfully in human food and being part of what was convinced to call modernist cuisine, avid new techniques and flavors. Of course, it is no longer necessary to go seek it to the field because it is largely cultivated and marketed together with other similar species, all baptized of arugula. Its cultivation is made in different Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Sudan, Spain and now also Portugal.
Rúcula; agrião-da-terra; arucula; mostarda-persa; pinchão; rugula são os nomes mais comuns em português.

ERUCA VESICARIA is een soort van oorsprong uit de Middellandse Zee en West-Aziatische regio, die aan andere continenten wordt gepropageerd. Het kan af en toe worden gevonden als spontane soorten, ook in Midden-Europa, Centraal-Azië, Noord-Amerika en Australië. Het is een van de vele eetbare wilde planten waarvan de voedzame waarde van onschatbare waarde is. Gestemd voor vergeetachtigheid tijdens Sleeplasses Romanaria keerde terug om te worden benadrukt, die met succes is geïntroduceerd in menselijk voedsel en deel uit te maken van wat ervan is overtuigd dat ze modernistische keuken en smaken te bellen. Natuurlijk is het niet langer nodig om het naar het veld te zoeken omdat het grotendeels samen met andere soortgelijke soorten wordt gecultiveerd en op de markt gebracht, allemaal gedoopt van rucola. De cultivatie is gemaakt in verschillende mediterrane landen zoals Italië, Griekenland, Turkije, Egypte, Soedan, Spanje en nu ook Portugal.
Roquette; Terre Cress; Arucula; Moutarde persane; pincer; Rugula sont les noms les plus courants du portugais.
Eruca Vesicaria est une espèce originaire de la région méditerranéenne et de l'Asie occidentale, ayant propagé à d'autres continents. Il peut être parfois trouvé comme des espèces spontanées également en Europe centrale, en Asie centrale, en Amérique du Nord et en Australie. C'est l'une des nombreuses plantes sauvages comestibles dont la valeur nutritive est inestimable. Voté pour l'oubli pendant les blues Romanaria est revenue à être mis en évidence, après avoir été réintroduit avec succès dans les aliments humains et faisant partie de ce qui était convaincu d'appeler une cuisine moderniste, des nouvelles techniques et des saveurs passionnées. Bien sûr, il n'est plus nécessaire d'aller le chercher sur le terrain car il est largement cultivé et commercialisé avec d'autres espèces similaires, toutes baptisées de roquette. Sa culture est faite dans différents pays méditerranéens tels que l'Italie, la Grèce, la Turquie, l'Égypte, le Soudan, l'Espagne et également le Portugal.
Rucola; Earth Cress; Arucula; Senape persiana; pizzico; Rucula sono i nomi più comuni in portoghese.

Può essere occasionalmente trovato come specie spontanee anche in Europa centrale, Asia centrale, America del Nord e Australia. È una delle tante piante selvatiche commestibili il cui valore nutriente è inestimabile. Votato per l'ubrianza durante le soleplasses Romanaria tornò per essere evidenziata, essendo stato reintrodotto con successo nel cibo umano e far parte di ciò che è stato convinto di chiamare la cucina modernista, avidamente nuove tecniche e sapori. Naturalmente, non è più necessario andare a cercarlo in campo perché è in gran parte coltivato e commercializzato insieme ad altre specie simili, tutti battezzati di rucola. La sua coltivazione è fatta in diversi paesi mediterranei come Italia, Grecia, Turchia, Egitto, Sudan, Spagna e ora anche Portogallo.

Eruca Vesicaria ist eine Art, die in der mediterranen und westlichen asiatischen Region stammt, die auf andere Kontinente propagiert wurde. Es kann gelegentlich als spontane Spezies in Mitteleuropa, Zentralasien, Nordamerika und Australien gefunden werden. Es ist einer der vielen essbaren Wildpflanzen, deren nahrhafter Wert von unschätzbarem Wert ist. Für die Vergesslichkeit während der Schlauchpflillen wurde Romanaria zurückgekehrt, um hervorgehoben zu werden, dass er in menschlichem Essen erfolgreich wieder eingeführt wurde und Teil dessen, was überzeugt war, modernistische Küche, begeisterte neue Techniken und Aromen zu nennen. Natürlich ist es natürlich nicht mehr notwendig, es auf das Feld zu suchen, da es weitgehend mit anderen ähnlichen Arten kultiviert und vermarktet wird, die alle von Rucola getauft werden. Sein Anbau wird in verschiedenen mediterranen Ländern wie Italien, Griechenland, der Türkei, Ägypten, Sudan, Spanien und jetzt auch Portugal hergestellt.

Eruca Vesicaria هي نوع منشئي في منطقة البحر الأبيض المتوسط والغرب الآسيوي، بعد أن نشر إلى قارات أخرى. يمكن العثور عليها في بعض الأحيان كأنواع عفوية أيضا في أوروبا الوسطى وآسيا الوسطى وأمريكا الشمالية وأستراليا. إنها واحدة من العديد من النباتات البرية الصالحة للأكل التي تكون قيمتها المغذية لا تقدر بثمن. تم التصويت لصالح النسيان أثناء نوم الرومانكاريا عادت، بعد أن أعيد إرسالها بنجاح في الغذاء البشري وكونك جزءا مما كان مقتنعا بدعوة المأكولات الحداثية وتقنيات ونكهات جديدة. بالطبع، لم يعد من الضروري الذهاب للبحث عنها إلى هذا المجال لأنه يزرع إلى حد كبير وتسويقه جنبا إلى جنب مع الأنواع المماثلة الأخرى، وكلها تعميم من جرجير. تصنع زراعةها في بلدان البحر المتوسط المختلفة مثل إيطاليا واليونان وتركيا ومصر والسودان وإسبانيا والآن أيضا البرتغال.
Here's the female Black Bear from yesterday's upload with a Pink Salmon in her jaws. We were shooting in fog that morning and it was dense at times, so I boosted contrast and saturation in post processing to cut through some of it. An exciting moment for the photographer, the bear, and no doubt the fish, too.
Which reminds me... one of our friends, a sublime teller of tall tales, was in fine form that week. "When the salmon fry leave their stream for the open ocean," she said, "they swim backwards, so that they can find their way back in a few years to spawn." (This is not a verbatim quote, but close enough.) She looked so innocent, so convincing. One of my friends repeated this to a couple of German tourists, who replied, "Ja? We didn't know that." Oh, no! This is how rumours get started! Canadian salmon swim out to sea backwards! If this story spreads across Germany, you heard it here first, and it's NOT TRUE (although very funny)!!! Please accept my apology on behalf of all Canadians. We are a funny lot.

Pūriri fruit is not the most nutritious sort in the New Zealand bush (high in carbohydrates, not lipids, sugars or calcium), but it is always there. The nut (endocarp) inside the drupe is a very hard pear-shaped kernel[3] that can contain up to 4 seeds. The seedlings from one kernel can germinate at the same time or be spread over a year.
Pūriri is an invaluable food source for native wildlife, as it provides both fruit and nectar in seasons when few other species produce these. Kereru are the main spreaders of Puriri seeds (Info from Wikipedia). These fruits show what is likely to be attacks from insects or small birds.

The common warthog is the only pig species that has adapted to grazing and savanna habitats. Its diet is omnivorous, composed of grasses, roots, berries and other fruits, bark, fungi, insects, eggs and carrion. The diet is seasonably variable, depending on availability of different food items. During the wet seasons, warthogs graze on short perennial grasses. During the dry seasons, they subsist on bulbs, rhizomes, and nutritious roots. Warthogs are powerful diggers, using both their snouts and feet. Whilst feeding, they often bend their front feet backwards and move around on the wrists. Calloused pads that protect the wrists during such movement form quite early in the development of the fetus. Although they can dig their own burrows, they commonly occupy abandoned burrows of aardvarks and other animals. The common warthog commonly reverses into burrows, with its head facing the opening and ready to burst out if necessary. Common warthogs will wallow in mud to cope with high temperatures and huddle together to cope with low temperatures.
Common warthogs are not territorial, but instead occupy a home range. Common warthogs live in groups called sounders. Females live in sounders with their young and with other females. Females tend to stay in their natal groups, while males leave, but stay within the home range. Subadult males associate in bachelor groups, but live alone when they become adults.Adult males only join sounders with estrous females.
As of 1999, the common warthog population in southern Africa is estimated to be about 250,000. Typical densities range between one and 10 per km2 in protected areas, but local densities of 77 per km2 were found on short grass in Nakuru National Park. The species is susceptible to drought and hunting (especially with dogs), which may result in localized extinctions. The common warthog is present in numerous protected areas across its extensive range

Dragon fruit grows on the Hylocereus cactus, also known as the Honolulu queen. The plant is native to southern Mexico and Central America. Today, it is grown all over the world. It goes by many names, including pitaya, pitahaya, and strawberry pear.
Bohemian Waxwing / bombycilla garrulus. Carrington, Nottingham. 14/01/17.
My third day of watching Waxwings in Carrington. Just two seen although ten reported earlier.
This individual was filling up on Rowan berries that looked well past their sell-by date! An irony was that lower down, on the edge of the tree there were still numerous sprays of fresher berries - more nutritious for the Waxwing I would have thought, far prettier for image making too. (Frustratingly, Redwings and Blackbirds were eating those, just NOT the Waxwing! It was possibly hell bent on getting tipsy from eating fermented fruit.)
This image shows the Waxwing's bulging crop quite nicely.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
The pink membrane under the lower mandible was starting to stretch with the weight of the berry cache, a phenomenon I have never noticed before.
All my food is always edible (at home, there are hungry people waiting, not very patiently, to eat it).....i.e. it's real food.......not raw masquerading as cooked, white glue instead of milk, potato shavings instead of ice-cream, dummy mock-ups, varnish for shine, shoe polish, grease for browning....etc !!
In this shot though I had to stick in pins to make the sandwiches stand (no toothpicks didn't work!) and the sandwich had wilted by the time I finished clicking ! :((
Also, I realised that using scissors to cut the bread slices instead of a knife would have given me perfect edges !
