a polar bear at the Detroit zoo. In case you're wondering about the odd angle, I shot this from a low vantage point which created the strange cut-off illusion of the water level.
I'm thrilled to be co-launching a brand-new street photography collective today alongside a talented and supportive and unlike-minded group of photographers, all of whom I met right here on flickr. Meet observe!
"Solidão é lava que cobre tudo
Amargura em minha boca
Sorri seus dentes de chumbo
Solidão palavra cavada no coração
Resignado e mudo
No compasso da desilusão
Desilusão, desilusão
Danço eu dança você
Na dança da solidão"
-- Paulinho da Viola

1. Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.
2. The choice of tool limits the possibilities.
3. Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.
4. The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...
5. The moment of observation is the real find ...
6. Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.
7. Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.
8. The meaning of all this is the process!
9. Let it be!

Observed in Canal Street, Newry, on the evening of Sunday 4th September 2022.
The Chinese takeaway restaurant "Kings" (no apostrophe on the sign), just off to the right, was surprisingly popular during my short visit to this street. Cars drew up every couple of minutes, disgorging their occupants so that they could place or collect orders from this and other nearby fast food establishments.

Comet 46P/Wirtanen observed simultaneously with the UT2 and UT3 telescopes at Paranal Observatory. The comet is the turquoise fuzzy blob to the top of the image. UT2 is the large dome at the foreground, and UT3 the one right behind it. The small dome in the background is the VST telescope.
When I took this shot the comet was being observed simultaneously with two high-resolution spectrographs: UVES, at UT2, and ESPRESSO, at UT3 (ESPRESSO can be fed with light from any of the four UT telescopes we have, or even all four at once). These spectrographs separate the light of the comet into its constituent wavelengths, allowing us to decipher its chemical composition.

Every summer, I've searched for these caterpillars on maypops (Passiflora incarnate) vine that I planted in our yard several years ago. This was the first summer that I had not observed any. On October 12, I located several caterpillars and finally observed a bright Gulf Fritillary butterfly on November 4!! Confirmed only in a few counties in Kentucky, it is uncommon in Lincoln Co.
Observed since 2012 on 8/12, the purpose of the event is to highlight the challenges facing our largest mammal in Africa and Asia. Indian elephants observed at Kabini.
Taken at Blue Mound State Park in Minnesota, USA. This owl followed me for a while on a late night hike. The amount of wildlife in this little pocket of nature was pretty amazing. Lots of raptors, bats, and coyotes that made it kind of hard to sleep at night.

Brown-cheeked Fulvetta
The brown-cheeked fulvetta (Alcippe poioicephala) (or brown-cheeked alcippe as the fulvettas proper are not closely related to this bird), is included in the Pellorneidae family. It was earlier also known as the quaker babbler.
This species is one of those retained in the genus Alcippe after the true fulvettas and some others were removed; the group had turned out to unite quite unrelated birds. Its closest relatives are probably the brown fulvetta, and the black-browed fulvetta which was only recently recognized as a distinct species again. The Javan fulvetta and the Nepal fulvetta might also belong into this group.(Pasquet et al. 2006)
The brown-cheeked fulvetta is a resident breeding bird in Bangladesh, India and Southeast Asia. Its habitat is undergrowth in moist forests and scrub jungle. This species, like most babblers, is not migratory, and has short rounded wings and a weak flight.
This babbler builds its nest in a tree, concealed in dense masses of foliage. The normal clutch is two or three eggs.
Brown-cheeked fulvetta measures 15 cm including its longish tail. It is brown above and buff, with no patterning on the body or wings. The crown is grey, and the cheeks are dark.
Brown-cheeked fulvettas have short dark bills. Their food is mainly insects and nectar. They can be difficult to observe in the dense vegetation they prefer, but these are vocal birds, and their characteristic calls are often the best indication that these birds are present.

My husband and I observed an Osprey pair for 90 minutes on April 10, 2023, in Cook County, Illinois. During this observation period, we photographed the pair mating twice and the male leaving the nesting area twice to bring sticks back to place into the nest.
Last year, we observed an Osprey pair at the same location from May 4th to June 12th, 2022.
On June 12, 2022, the temperature was 74 F, then came the brutal, record-breaking heatwave with temperatures reaching over 100 F for nearly a week, followed by high 90's! We worried about how the Ospreys would fare. Sadly, we never saw either of the adult Ospreys after June 12, 2022. Osprey nesting failures are attributed to a number of factors, including eggs not being viable, chicks not receiving enough food, which is also how they obtain the required water they must have to avoid dehydration, receiving contaminated food, aerial predation by owls, crows, or hawks, and falling from the nest or being pushed out by a sibling. Additionally, extreme fluctuations in weather conditions certainly play a tremendous role in nest failure. Any of these conditions could have caused them to abandon their nest.
Studies indicate that Ospreys exhibit site fidelity and will try again. Although this pair has not been banded, presumably they are the same pair.
It will be exciting to observe them and see if they have better luck this year.
*In Cook County, Illinois Ospreys are listed as Threatened. "Pandion haliaetus is Listed Threatened; Number of Occurrences (41); Last Observed 2022-06-28."
