The severe extremes of weather that pound the High Plains of Western Nebraska are hard for any exposed structure
The weird part about this photo is that less than 30 minutes later the clouds all disappeared!

Thank you for all your kind comments, invites, faves, and awards!
Captured and released. Used 5 lights in studio to get this shot. It was very cooperative while I moved the camera around and nudged him into position. Had to coax him into sticking his tongue out. Nerodia erythrogaster
It’s an end to a great second day on the Montana Rail Link, unfortunately my father and I ended up in Paradise after following the 10th Sub and eventually Plains in hopes of finding the gas train, we were unsuccessful. After much despair, I decided to take some shots of the Northern Pacific Searchlight Cantilever’s, all is calm as we’re looking east towards the Flathead River Valley on the MRL 4th Sub. The looming BNSF takeover at this time was only under a week away, something that still hurts to hear about of our beloved Montana Rail Link. Taken: 12-23-23

Picture somewhere in the Šumava National Park (near Nova Ves, South Bohemia, Czech Republic)
Šumava National Park (Czech: Národní park Šumava) is a National Park in the Plzeň and South Bohemian Regions of the Czech Republic along the border with Germany (where a smaller Bayerischer National Park lies) and Austria. They protect a little-inhabited area of the mountain range of the same name, the Šumava. Since 1990 it has been the protected Biospherical Reserve of UNESCO.
Foto ergens in het Nationaal Park Šumava (vlakbij Nova Ves, South Bohemia, Tsjechië)
Het Nationaal park Šumava (Tsjechisch: národní park Šumava) is het grootste van de vier nationale parken in Tsjechië en is gelegen in de regio's Pilsen en Zuid-Bohemen. Het omvat een deel van het Bohemer Woud (Šumava) in het zuidwesten van Tsjechië langs de grens met Duitsland en Oostenrijk. Het nationaal park beschermt een dunbevolkt gebied van de bergketen met dezelfde naam. In het gebied leefden tot en met de Tweede Wereldoorlog vooral Duitstalige inwoners. Na het einde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog werden zij verdreven en werd het gebied deel van de verlaten zone langs de grens met het Oostblok. In 1963 werd Šumava tot beschermd landschap uitgeroepen. In 1991 kreeg het waardevolste gedeelte de status van nationaal park. Dit park behoort sinds 1990 tot een biosfeerreservaat van de UNESCO. Šumava is 68.064 hectare groot en sluit aan op het kleinere Nationaal Park Bayerischer Wald in Duitsland. Het nationaal park was tot 1990 alleen voor grenswachten toegankelijk, en niet voor toeristen of Tsjechen. Daardoor is het eeuwenoude park goed bewaard gebleven en zijn er weinig veranderingen geweest, en is het park voor het grootste deel nog in originele staat.

This afternoon, the eastbound Mountaineer nears the east switch at Plain as it hurries toward Denver. Plain is a siding and a small MofW base in the settlement of Plainview, Colorado, about 24 rail miles west of the Mile-High City. Plainview is where the plains end and the mountains begin. From here, one has a plain view of the plains. Photo by Joe McMillan, September 12, 2023, at 5:05 p.m.
Brachystola magna
The Plains Lubber is an attractive grasshopper when encountered on the open prairie. Not the hopper with the greatest maximum length but certainly the heaviest.
I didn’t realize that the pronghorn antelope is an original “native American”. It has no close relative on this or any other continent. We spotted this pair alone—separated from the herd—and the male was a bit lame. Although he had seen better days, the female was sticking close by him, waiting patiently as he slowly followed her across the stream and up the hill.

Rob took me to the butterfly aviary for Valentine's Day. The lighting was tricky, but I managed to get a few good shots. It was heaven being around so many different species of butterflies at once.

Les fascines sont réalisées à partir de fagots de saule maintenus entre deux rangées de piquets en quinconce. Cet obstacle permet de ralentir l'écoulement de l'eau et évite le départ des terres dans la rivière (érosion des sols). La reprise des branchages permettra de créer des bosquets verdoyants où la faune trouvera un abri idéal.
