Some say that thirteen is an unlucky number. Will these parents think the same? (Look very well because there are 13 goslings not 12). At this time of the year, the lake always has a lot of algae and the remnants of leaves and branches from autumn and winter. It doesn't help that it hasn't rained much. (Even if isn't a good photo, looks better in large). For those that can’t see number 13, see tag on photo).

 

Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!

The Yellow-throated brush finch ranges from Mexico to the mountains of W Colombia. All forms of this brush-finch have a white stripe down the midline of the crown from the forehead to the nape.

 

White-naped Brush-finches are found in subtropical to temperate elevations, from 1200 to 3100 m in elevation. They forage on the ground, often in family groups.

Noisy Miner (Manorina melanocephala)

 

The Noisy Miner clan at the Woodville Football Oval continues to increase. This one had swooped me as it thought I had got too close to its offspring, which I hadn't noticed at this point.

Grey Fantail. Rhipidura alisteri 14-17cm.

Excited to discover a nest and now chicks in a big Banksia just over the fence,

My mother, who died a week ago, and my father, who died in 2006, at a carnival ball in Memmingen in 1954. My mother was 22 years old then, my father 27 (their birthdays were later in the year), and I was about ten months old at the time. Certainly my grandmother took care of me that evening.

Ever since Cassie's parents went missing Cassie has not been the same since...

 

Always nice to see females with eggs! They're such good mothers though that they're infuriating, as they constantly lean towards the lens, to protect their brood!!

Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos)

 

John Heinz Wildlife Refuge Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

My brother from Maine drove to Massachusetts and I from Pennsylvania drove to Massachusetts to meet at my parents gravesite to pay our respects. All in all it was a great visit as we attended a few other events with a more upbeat stance. He drove his 38 Chevy and I had the 40 Mercury. I found this photo quite appropriate for our personal files. Thanks for viewing my work. Drive safely…

One of the darkest I've ever seen!

Brown Moss - Shropshire

A common gallinule and one of it's five new arrivals at the San Luis National Wildlife Refuge.

Elasmucha grisea can reach a length of 6.5–8.8 millimetres (0.26–0.35 in). Males are smaller than females. These medium-sized shieldbugs are usually brown-reddish, but there are also gray (hence the Latin species name grisea) and green-brown specimen. Connexivum is black and white. The upperside is covered with several dark dots. The scutellum usually shows an evident black patch. The ventral face is largely punctuated with black. Lateral corners of the pronotum are simply beveled. The front corners of the pronotum show a more pronounced tooth. Antennas are blackish in the male, dark brown in the female. This species, like other parent bugs possess methatoracic and abdominal glands, which discharge a foul smelling secretion. This secretion is used to deter potential enemies and is sometimes released when the bug is disturbed.

As we have continued to digitize old photographs for our parents, I came across this excellent image of my wife’s Great Grandparents automobiles taken from their front porch during a snowstorm. The picture was taken around 1936 near the North Texas town of Woodson. I not sure about the car on the left, but it looks possibly like a 1932 Ford Model B. The car on the right is a 1936 Ford Model 48. I felt that this image really captures that remote sense of loneliness on a 1930s farm in rural North Texas. A good day to stay inside next to the stove and play dominoes if you ask me!
