This eagle made so many low passes over my head that I finally began to think it was showing off its spectacular plumage design. The encounter took place on a private estancia in Chilean Patagonia.
I am back here at Pella Crossing on Marlatt Trails near the end of the long entrance trail and the start of pasture land. I have no idea why these horses have been denied access to all those lucious pasture grasses shone in my last Pella shot. These nags can't eat the recyclables dumped beside the fence. The railroad grade was hit by the flood and was rebuilt, never mind that the ties were long shot anyway.
The Marlatt trail turns left near here but I heard this horse "nagging" me from this spot and thought he looked intent on nipping my butt. Back OFF! It could be that garlic that I planted right there or... because Trump outlawed horse melanin, he only likes white horses and Sarah Sanders was stealing his oats to gorge herself. It takes a lot of oats to lie like that. This nag probably heard Harleys are going to be way more expensive and folks will start riding nags again. Bummers!
It looks like the latest weather blast has abated but more clouds stream in from the divide in this scene. The trekkers are now off the trail, not unlike the migrant kids. I don't think that Pruett denying global warming is going to stop these clouds from heading east and pounding someone even if he warns the Koch Brothers on his Bat Phone. They'll ship Pruett more money regardless if really nasty weather slams their Kansas. The trail's empty, my clothes are still damp and a breeze is cooling me down to about perfect. When summer sprinkles hit here, enjoy the heck out of them and get damp and cool. I already passed two of the ponds, gravel pits and am near to rounding the second pond toward the outhouse and river. Where is that pesky outhouse when you need it? Is that why the nag is pissed? Oh well, no one else is watching.
I am out west on Marlatt Trails (the Marlatt family had a farm down the road) and found a ditch, right of path, the Denio Taylor Mill Ditch. The Denio Taylor Ditch eventually wandered east, downhill from Longmont's Third Avenue toward the old Denio Mill on Pratt Street. It now disappears before arrival. The flour mill, current Old Mill Park site was operated by J.W. Denio and others. The old mill was actually serviced by one of the early railroads that actually extended another block west paralleling the feed water ditch.
Boulder County eventually reopened Pella Crossing Park at Hygiene after the flood a decade ago. Who thought that a flood plain with multiple gravel pits, a river bottom and a Mill and other ditches would ever flood in the age of global orangeman warming... We have met the enemy and he is a bold faced liar. Let's hope that the "bigger the lie" no longer holds sway as it did 70 decades ago in Austria and Germany. Apparently there are several prairie castle owners who prefer this flood plain. This all started when I delivered a couple of the tomato plants to Ronnie in Hygiene. He related that the park, on the other side of the railroad tracks, had reopened. It's been some time since I wandered the area.
Pella was an original St. Vrain River ford settlement but unlike Longmont, Pella has long disappeared, early floods perhaps. Almost all the water in St. Vrain River has similarly disappeared into lawns and gravel pits. At least the ground and ditch water is watering some habitat. Hygiene eventually sprung up north of old Pella. I visited the park east of North 75th Street south of Hygiene earlier. Some clouding finally showed up so I parked at Ronnie's which is closer to the west side Marlatt Trails and headed out on my trek under threatening skies. After a couple of treks in hundred degree heat, a sprinkle is enormously welcome. A sprinkle here is a state of mind. Off and around the railroad tracks to head west along Dragonfly Pond.
Nothing special about this picture except it shows how happy Benni is to be let off leash at our park. Up goes the tail as she prances away - in a minute she'll start running aimlessly, just for the joy of running. It makes me happy to see her and she won't go where she can't see me.

Deep Fork Bayou is an almost circular little body of water right off highway 75 South of Okmulgee. It is part of Deep Fork Wildlife Refuge.

Visual ideas combined with technology combined with personal interpretation equals photography. Each must hold it's own; if it doesn't, the thing collapses.

Cut Off, Louisiana is a small community located in coastal Lafourche Parish. The population is about 6,000 with a local Cajun culture that is unique in Louisiana itself. The climate is semitropical and influenced by the Gulf of Mexico. The community lines Bayou Lafourche and the Intracoastal Canal, most of the land is low at around sea level surrounded by a levee. Coastal erosion is a big issue and threatens the very existance of this one of a kind place.

A conversion to black & white using Silver Efex Pro 2. This is a look to the southeast while enjoying a drive along the Cactus Forest Scenic Loop Drive. Off in the distance are peaks of the Rincon Mountains range. On a future trip back to Tucson and this national park, I hope to enjoy a hike up to Tanque Verde Peak, but for this trip my time was short. I could just enjoy the views of the desert landscape and the rugged mountainside...
Two activists in Whitehall opposite 10 Downing Street with "Hands off Yemen" placards
British aircraft flown by Saudi pilots, but serviced by British technicians and armed with British bombs have been targetting Yemeni civilian infrastructure, including schools, hospitals and now the main port at Hodeidah, through which 70% of Yemeni aid flows. According to the latest UN figures, 22 million Yemenis are dependent on humanitarian assistance and some 8.4 million in imminent danger of famine.
The United Nations attempted a week earlier to pass a resolution calling for an immediate halt to the UK/US backed Emirati/Saudi assault on Hodeidah, but although it was overwhelmingly supported by the majority of the world's nations in the General Assembly, Britain and the United States insisted on holding a closed session of the Security Council and threatened to use their veto in order to protect their murderous allies - Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
The same week an Associated Press report presented shocking evidence that the United Arab Emirates is now running illegal detention facilities within Yemen where prisoners are beaten, tortured and sexually abused.
American military personnel have also be seen close to the bases and the concern is that Washington is now encouraging the Emirates to resort to illegal forced disappearances and torture in order to win the war through terror, where conventional means have failed.
The view from near Hawksbill in Shenandoah Natl Park last year. I'm disgusted that this beautiful place is closed during peak season! That is, until the bozos in DC can get it together! I have a cabin reserved next weekend within hiking distance to this view...but for now it's off limits.
A very quick snap when I saw the reflections of my grandson (middle) and friends walking away.

The Bridlington Kite Festival, East Yorkshire got off to a great start last weekend. The kites were bith colourful and enormous. I have posted three other shots below.
A new event is hoped to bring hundreds of people to Bridlington this weekend as a Kite festival takes over Sewerby Fields.
Andrew Warner's been involved in planning the festival, he said:
"The big advantage to it is you will be able to see these kites from anywhere in the surrounding area because they are so big that people coming over the tops, through the Wolds, as soon as they can see Bridlington they will see them up there in the sky."
The sky over Sewerby Fields, in Bridlington, is set to be awash with colourful kites as part of the two-day festival, hosted by East Riding of Yorkshire Council and the Northern Kite Group.
The event, subject to reasonable wind and weather conditions, will take place on Saturday and Sunday and will see a number of internationally-renowned experts put on a display to entertain local residents and visitors to the resort.
Displays will include some of the world’s largest inflatable kites flown by professional flyers, teams of two and four line kite flyers performing sequences to music and a chance for members of the public, particularly children, to have a go at flying some of the kites (loaned and supervised in the arena).
Children will also be encouraged to bring their favourite soft toy for a parachute jump. The teddy will be given a parachute and hoisted up a rig and float gently down from a great height. The owner of each bear will be presented with a certificate to reward them for their bravery.
