A bird'd eye view of Oliver showing the agriculture that goes on here. We are looking towards the USA here and the far mountain may be in the States. This is the Southern part of the Canadian Okanagan Valley.
The olive-backed euphonia (euphonia gouldi) is a small passerine bird in the finch family. It is a resident breeder in the Caribbean lowlands and foothills from southern Mexico to western Panama. The olive-backed euphonia is found in wet forests, tall second growth and adjacent bushy clearings. It primarily feeds on fruits and insects. Fruits such as berries, figs, and small fruits from trees. They also eat a variety of insects, including caterpillars, beetles, and spiders.

We encountered these Olive-throated Parakeets as we were departing a small restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious lunch of gar fish. Thankfully we were prepared with our cameras ready because the parakeets didn’t hang around for long.
We will be doing this trip again next spring, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2018-costa-ric...

Several years ago I traveled to the Holy Land. Bought this from a family of olive wood carvers that has a shop in Bethlehem.

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
I could use some help with identy of this one. I believe this is an Olive-Backed Oriole, but if someone could confirm this, it would be great. Found at the Rex Smeal Park in Port Douglas, Qld.
125) Olive-Backed Sunbird
Olive-backed sunbird, Cinnyris jugularis, Kelicap Bukit
Also known as the yellow-bellied sunbird, is a species of sunbird found from Southern Asia to SouthEast Asia to Australia. Feed largely on nectar, although they will also take insects, especially when feeding young. Their flight is fast and direct on their short wings. Most species can take nectar by hovering, but usually perch to feed most of the time. Originally from mangrove habitat, the olive-backed sunbird has adapted well to humans, and is now common even in fairly densely populated areas, even forming their nests near human homes.

Le carezze, le espressioni di amore, sono necessarie alla vita affettiva come le foglie alla vita di un albero. Se sono interamente trattenuti, l'amore morirà alle radici.

Wonders never cease, I managed to get a lovely photo of Olive! Sunny today, which makes a lovely change! Evie had gone inside so I managed to get some photos when she isn't zooming about winding her up!
Olive found this wood pigeon feather and carried it around and chewed it (as well as leaves!) while I hung washing out and tried to tidy the patio up lol. She does look very cute here. 12 weeks now and ready to go out in a day :)
The Trevor Carpenter Photo Challenge
Week 38__Pets, Domestic and Domesticated Animal Portraits
This chicken lives next door to my daughter, and her name (the chicken, that is) is Olive, the same as our granddaughter! I took the original photo in the backyard in mid afternoon and spent a great deal of time chasing their three chickens around the yard. Although they were quite tame, they tended to turn their back to me every time I got close enough for a shot!
Shot with my Nikon D7100, Nikon 18-300 lens, f/5.6, 1/125, ISO 100. Then I put the cropped subject on a coordinating background that I created.
I can now continue to reveal the competing images from the 2021 Sandwich Fair Competition.
These images continue the series from the Sandwich Fair, the biggest and the last county fair in the state of Illinois. Known simply as "The Fair" by locals, it was started in 1888 and is the oldest continually-operated county fair in Illinois as well.
Held the week after Labor Day, the Sandwich Fair can draw tens of thousands of visitors per day and is a photographer's delight.
It is the reason why my photography club, the Sandwich Photographic Society exists. Formed in 1986 to document every aspect of the 100th Sandwich Fair in 1987, SPS is now a Chicago Area Camera Club Association certified club.
SPS sponsors a "Sandwich Fair Challenge" every year a themed photographic competition open to all that consists of 10-15 categories with the only criteria being that all images need to be taken at the current year's Fair. Many of the images featured in this series were taken to fit these categories.
This image is the front grill ove an Oliver tractor, one of the many vintage tractor brands that can be found in the antique tractor display.

My Olive tree with raindrops!
I didn't get any Olives off this tree this year - one minute there were a few and next they were gone! Perhaps the birds like them too!
"Olive-Bellied Sunbird"... Captured at last, after many attempts earlier, lot of chasing around and fleeting glimpses, and not enough lighting affording stable focused and clear shots... made very difficult as it is a very small, restless and a hyper sunbird. Seen here is an adult male which has a metallic green head, back and throat, with brown wings, a metallic blue rump and a black tail with a purplish-blue sheen. It has a narrow blue breast band above a wider scarlet breast patch, lemon-yellow pectoral tufts (hidden under the wings) and an olive belly. Mostly feeds on flower nectar (last photo). To sum up, a VERY BEAUTIFUL Sunbird !!!

The rear end of Q19651-03 is in Steelton, Minnesota, while the head end is about to enter Oliver, Wisconsin, on the Oliver rail (upper level) and highway (lower level) bridge.
This is Rory's first (and to be only) foal. She is 1/2 Quarter Horse and 1/2 Andalusian, so she is called an "Azteca". Oliver's sire is a very tall, very kind-minded Andalusian named Zeus, so Oliver will be mostly Andalusian, as well. They think he will also be VERY tall when he grows up!
Oliver Typewriter Model 5. 311,000 of this "bat wing" model were produced between 1907-1914 by the Oliver Typewriter Co, of Chicago, Illinois. The company operated from 1895 until it was dissolved in 1928.
