...just a click of my camera sets this male and female pair of Blue winged Teals to take off. Fortunately I was able to track and get them frozen in their lift off! ....(enlarge for detail)

If you get stuck in the sand, mud or salt, this wonderful woman and her husband will come drag you out. Just make sure you have a credit card ready.

This tow was 8 miles from a paved road. Far outside AAA and other Roadside assistance programs coverage area.

The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the photo.

No need to comment – Just enjoy :-)

Previously unpublished shot from November 2019.

I apologise if any of my previously unpublished reserve or 'b-roll' shots are banal, vapid or insipid as I have been recently accused of but beggars cannot be choosers. Clinical vulnerability to Covid doesn't disappear and we are a long way from Covid disappearing. Already struggling with physical disability that can limit my mobility I refuse to put myself at risk of the disability that millions are suffering though long Covid. While this is the case I have nothing but unpublished shots and re-edits. I am sorry. Stay safe my Flickr friends.

Thanks for all the faves and kind comments!

A mix of snow geese and Canada geese lift off from a pond in eastern Alberta. They circled a few times, then came back to where they started.

Taken for the Smile on Saturday theme of profile portrait. It is very unusual to see two robins together. Not sure if maybe one is a female - any thoughts please!

This weekend is Rooster Days in Broken Arrow. I thought this rooster weather vane would be a great way to do the Flickr Friday Top theme and Rooster Days!

Spending lots of time with the hummers in my yard as I recover from surgery, They have gotten used to me now and don't seem to mind the camera.

A part demolished factory in Keighley, West Yorkshire is left open to the elements.

We seldom get snow here so this is a shot from a few years ago with a touch of solarization.

Common Gum Tree Shield Bug (Poecilometis patruelis)

For Macro Monday - Animal

Spotted on our hedge yesterday.

The Shield Bug measures 10 mm across the 'shoulders'.

Posting early today as I will be out for most of the rest of the day. Catch up later, perhaps via the app if I get time.

And I may not be around tomorrow.

Happy Macro Monday!

Took my mountain bike out for some serious muddy off roadin'! Exhilarating! Exciting! Fast! Very Muddy!

Where I live I am surrounded by fields and woodland and so I took my bike out Tuesday morning at 6am as the sun was rising. I'm quite scratched and bruised as its quite tough terrain here and there's always brambles hanging down round the edge of fields and bridleways. My arms took a a proper scratching.

I took my bike out again this morning for another 5 miler as its gonna be hot one today, there was a rising mist across the fields and a gorgeous Sunrise.

I don't take my camera as it may get broken. I will have to stop and do an iPhone image next time.

Now for a cup of tea and chocolate biscuit.....

I went out for a drive in the rain today to see if there was any snowy action... this snowy owl surprised me at first coming out from behind the break-water rocks at the wharf... he flew out onto the bay and caught something in his talons... then flew off away from me to scare away another snowy coming toward him. Then he landed on the navigation light close to where I was. I waited for about another half hour till he decided to fly off and I got this shot. They are so fast and I was in my car as to not get soaked ... I did manage to get him all in the frame ... lol

A male Bushtit took off from it`s perch as I was trying to catch the action,,,,,,,, :)
