“I smell fennel,” Launcelot said. “That reminds me, I should tell you I have discovered a specific for maims. You take salt, good-quality river mud, and bee urine, and slather it on the maim and hold it there for two days. Works like a charm. Gathering the bee urine is a bit of a bore.” Donald Barthelme
..best quote I could find with this reference :))
I find that fennel goes very well with pork :) good balance to the fatty meat.
Yes I'm from Denmark and I eat pork and have no principles except freedom of speech....that's why we are the happy people :))

The Sonny Bono Salton Sea National Wild Life Refuge manages an intensive farming program to provide nutritious forage for over 30,000 wintering geese and other migratory birds and wildlife.
Though Salton Sea ecosystem is very harsh, the fishes like tilapia do survive in large numbers and attract serious bird life. Perfect place for ornithologists!
About the photograph:
Its a panorama obviously!
I have a good opportunity to observe this big flock taking off from a far way field due to a near by flying helicopter and I instantly thought to pan the shot to make a cool panorama. These are hand held shots, total 8 of them and merged in LR6.
I never tire of watching these gentle giants as they feed on the islands in the middle of the Chobe... Looking for the most nutritious grasses..
Jays are strikingly coloured members of the crow family, found throughout England and Wales. During spring, gatherings of jays, known as ‘crow marriages’, take place in which individuals search for a mate. Jays' have a penchant for acorns, which they cache throughout autumn and revisit during harder times. A single bird buries several thousand nutritious nuggets each year, playing a crucial role in the spread of oak woodlands. When threatened by hawks, the usually shy jays mob their attackers, mimicking the hawk's call as an alarm.
the lowly dandelion. Amazingly hearty and destined to survive. Quite beautiful, too, if you can get past it invading your yard. Quite frankly, I'm uncertain why we don't plant dandelions instead of grass? Grass is boring in comparison. Did you know that dandelion leaves are edible? Dandelions are actually quite nutritious. The web is filled with info about them if you care to know.
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.

White winged crossbill sports a highly specialized offset bill used to wedge apart scales on spruce cones in order to extract the nutritious seed with their tongue
Blackberries are in full bloom out in barren habitats, and bumblebees are taking full advantage of that nutritious nectar and pollen source. With luck, we'll have a bumper crop in August!

Cicibebe is a nutritious sort of biscuit for babies:)
The magpie never had the guts to get so close to the window,so I had to throw the biscuit down:)
MIam miam. I made these this afternoon to keep me going for the coming weeks.....nutritious and, well, délicieux

And for Studio 26, assignment on color -- resorting to produce, which is much more colorful than our surroundings right now.
Great sight to watch these elephants being taken care of very well by the team at the camp. They are given nutritious food to ensure their health is well maintained too.
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.

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).
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."
"Palm jaggery is loaded with essential nutrients. It is high in iron which helps in treating anemia by increasing the hemoglobin level. It also contains magnesium, which helps in regulating the nervous system. It is equally rich in calcium, phosphorus, and potassium."
Delicious and nutritious chicken curry. It's homemade. Cooked with Indian spices and herbs, you can have this tasty curry with rice or flour bread.

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.)

Many people think the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker is a mythical bird because its name is often used to parody bird names. It is not only real, it is in some ways a keystone species. Like all woodpeckers, it excavates nest cavities that subsequently are used by a wide variety of animals, from other birds to squirrels and spiders. Sapsuckers also drill sap wells from which other animals obtain nutritious sap and the insects attracted to it. Sapsuckers get their name from their habit of boring holes into the cambium layer or inner bark, letting the sap exude and run down the trunk. The birds wipe up or suck the oozing sap with their brush-like tongues.
"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!"

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.
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.

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
