I'm off for a few days to enjoy my Christmas with my family and friends.

Best wishes to all my Flickr friends for Happy, Healthy and a safe Holiday Season and may your New Year be filled with the same.

 

See you when I retun on the 5th - I will try and comment if I have time between the celebrations.

Wonderful opportunity to photograph a Sparrowhawk at Westhay. The bird flew onto the dead twig and sat there for sometime. So I was having to hand hold my camera and big lens whilst waiting for this bird to fly. At the same time, there was a Kingfisher to my right, :-)

When life gives you lemons

Instead of champagne

 

You can be bitter

Or you can be better

The MV Plancius in the distance, manoeuvring through the icebergs, coming to resupply the MV Rembrandt van Rijn, which is anchored off the beach at Cape Hofmann Halvo, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland. There is limited space for supplies in the schooner so the larger expedition ship meets up with the smaller ship to resupply her midway through the trip.

Somedays I feel like I am a bit off kilter. Today is not one of them though :)

 

I may not always get to "thank you" or comment back on a comment that you might leave here on my image but, just know each comment is read and very much appreciated.

Having been at WWT Slimbridge all morning on the return home I stopped off in the Cotswolds hoping to see a Short Eared Owl

 

It was a three hour wait before this Short Eared Owl showed up, quartering the Grassland looking for food.

 

Short Eared Owls are medium sized Owls with mottled brown bodies, pale under-wings and yellow eyes. They are often seen hunting during the day. In winter, there's an influx of continental birds from Scandinavia, Russia, Iceland to the UK.

My first look at Sandhill Cranes was somewhat frustrating as the birds were quite distant and most of the take offs were in very poor light. These two hung around after the flock had departed and while still distant, the light came around nicely.

Arcadia Marsh, Arcadia MI

 

It's so nice to finally get spring, but things look so dirty. This would have looked so much better with a light dusting to cover up all the dirt in the snow. Oh well, at least it's getting warmer.

Off to get more food.

Substitute 'fenced' for another, more suitable, verb.

Teapot, milk jug and maple syrup jug - delicious :)

Mi ero spinta sin dove finiva la bancbina, mentre attendevo il mio treno.

Tranquilli, volevo solo scattare una foto. Mi ha sempre affascinato il groviglio dei binari, il loro incontrarsi e dividersi in un gioco senza fine

The wind blowing the snow off the peak of Mt. Marmolada in the Dolomites.

Conductor Davis and switchman Mathis head off to move some engines around Villa Grove yard with the UP 1963 and 2096. The UP 1963 is what I consider "real heritage".

After finishing it`s work for the day, this Claas Lexion 780 'Terra trac' Combine Harvester follows it`s tracks back home through this wheat field at Milton Malsor, Northamptonshire. It roat attachments have been removed, and are being taken back on a special trailer which is towed, in this case, by a tractor.

The Curlew's bill must look like quite a weapon when its length is about half the size of your whole body. Departure clearly the sensible option here.

Thanks for looking in! - Have a great day!

Hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas!!!

An old bi-plane takes off from a grass airstrip in the middle of England, against a dramatic sunset sky.

Some people have commented on the fact that the propeller is stationary........

well it COULD be ..........

".... because the young Pilot stalled the engine soon after taking off, and just after the `plane passed over head, it crashed into the Airport Control Tower in a ball of fire............the Pilot and all the Staff survived unhurt....."

 

Come on Guys, the photo is called "Take Off", please USE YOUR IMAGINATION WITH THIS IMAGE AND HAVE FUN !!

Ernest Salu is the name of three Brussels stone sculptors specialized in funerary sculpture. Their well-known family stone cutting business was located in Laeken, and existed for more than a century, from 1872 to 1984. Laken Cemetery next door was their 'showroom'.

 

This is their former workshop, now a funerary art museum.
