This is the same American kestrel who perched so nicely for me, after it had made this strike, but come up empty.

Found this black-crowned night-heron getting into position for hunting in the marshy shallow water. They can be quite patient too, sometimes found hunched over in the same position for an extensive time while waiting on some type of aquatic delight. They will defend their "hunting grounds" or territory as well, should another opportunistic feeder come along.
What I find most fascinating about them is that quite striking red eye ... they simply grab my attention.
Happy Sunday everyone!

Several coyotes having a late morning hunting spree. The female was doing the hunting and the male would supervise.
The position of this butterfly makes it look elongated. It reminds me of the great painter El Greco (1541-1614).

My hometown, Schoonhoven, has a moat. In early days, it enclosed the old city center, as a protection against intruders. Together with the city walls it was almost impossible to conquer the city.
Nowadays, part of the moat is gone, but a small part of it is still be visible. Even the star-shaped form is visible on maps.
Almost five years ago, the counsil of Schoonhoven agreed to construct a bandstand on the water. It forms a stage for a broad spectrum of music bands. From the adjacent park, you have a perfect view on the bandstand and you can enjoy the atmosphere.
This photo is taken from across the moat, in the direction of the park, the bandstand and the Great St. Bartholomew Church of Schoonhoven.

Its always nice to find a unique photo position at big heritage events. After about an hour of waging war on the fast growing vegetation, I was able to just barely photograph 23 058 climbing the famed Geislinger Steige. Even with the camera held over my head a few annoying green leads remain but that was more than enough gardening for the day. A big thanks to the Ulmer Eisenbahnfreunden for the great event!
Es ist immer schön ein einzigartige Fotostelle bei Großveranstaltungen zu finden. Nach ein gute stunde in Kampf gegen der schnell gewaschenen Umkraut und Büsche, konnte ich mit Kamera hoch gehalten der 23 058 auf der erste Pendelfahrt des Tag erwischen. Ein paar grünen Ärgernisse bleibt aber das war genügend Gartenarbeit für der Tag. Danke an der UEF für der tolle Veranstaltung! Geislingen an der Stiege 09.07.22
Minutes after arrival with the 1822 from Dingwall, the locomotive has already uncoupled from it's short take of Mark 1 and 2 coaches and is about to run around prior to pushing the coaches back into the station ready for the next departure.
Those viewers that know Kyle may be wondering about my viewpoint for taking this photograph. In the summer of 1989 I was working on a ship that returned to Kyle each evening and moored at the quay next to the station, and this is taken from the bridge of the MV Northern Horizon... no pole necessary!
At this time services from Kyle were unable to reach Inverness due to the collapse of the Ness Viaduct a few months earlier ( see flic.kr/p/2aErgVU). Consequently, trains were running only as far as Dingwall with passengers being taken by bus to Inverness.

I find that Lying down is one of the most stable shooting positions, which is crucial when using a long lens in a breezy cliff-top environment. Plus lm less likely to take a tumble. A photo I took back in June but did not think it was worthy of Flickr but was persuaded by my granddaughter to post.
Times so bad that even angels would wish to crouch and hide, others would prefer death to endless suffering, others again might wish to have never been born in the first place. So many men with guns pulling the religious traditions through the dirt. So much hypocrisy in the 'defence' of democracy; such a corrupted language defining the 'other'; so much violence masquerading as justified reactions. So little preparedness to step into the other's shoes. I could go on. However, when angels are helpless, and when violence is going to create even more violence, the foetal position is the wrong choice. We got to stand up and walk.

The Flehmen response (also called the Flehmen position, Flehmen reaction, flehming, or flehmening) is a behaviour whereby an animal curls back its upper lips exposing its front teeth, inhales with the nostrils usually closed and then often holds this position for several seconds.
It may be performed over a site or a substance of particular interest to the animal (e.g. urine or faeces) or may be performed with the neck stretched and the head held high in the air.
Flehmen is performed by a wide range of mammals including ungulates and felids.
The behaviour facilitates the transfer of pheromones and other scents into the vomeronasal organ located above the roof of the mouth via a duct which exits just behind the front teeth of the animal.

Wisely, Step 10 does not emphasize a moral inventory, which becomes too self-absorbed and self-critical, but speaks instead of a “personal inventory.” In other words, just watch yourself objectively, calmly, and compassionately. You will be able to do this from your new viewing platform and perspective as a grounded child of God. “The Spirit will help us in our weakness” (Romans 8:26). From this most positive and dignified position, we can let go of, and even easily admit, our wrongs. We are being held so strongly and so deeply that we can stop holding onto, or defending, ourselves. God forever sees and loves Christ in us; it is only we who doubt our divine identity as children of God.
We now have an implanted position and power whereby we can see ourselves calmly and compassionately, without endless digging, labeling, judging, or the rancor that we usually have toward our own imperfection. Don’t judge, just look can be our motto— and now, with the very eyes of God. That will awaken consciousness, and then things will usually take care of themselves, with even the least bit of honesty and courage. A wonderful Indian Jesuit, Anthony de Mello (1931–1987), used to say, “Awareness, awareness, awareness!”…
… To be fully conscious would be to love everything, on some level and in some way—even our mistakes. To love is to fall into full consciousness, which is contemplative, non-dualistic, and includes everything—even “the last enemy to be destroyed, which is death itself” (1 Corinthians 15:26). That is why we must, absolutely must, love!

A client of mine is looking to add choreographed routines to their bi-monthly events. Info below
Thank you for your interest in the Cabaret Choreography Position!
L&H has 2 main venues, Love&Harmony Jazz Club with over 4000 active group members, and our new Orchide's Private Club.
Each venue hosts various events throughout the month, themed tribute concerts and much more along with an active ballroom.
CHOREOGRAPHY POSITION:
We are looking for a talented individual that can piece together "Cabaret" style routes 2 times a month (some routes can be used over and over on different dates with outfit changes I'm sure).
Support from venue will be provided for various items as needed (props, costumes, etc).
This isn't an "our venue" only position. If you perform and do choreography at another venue, that is great! We support everyone and just looking for something that can devote some time to putting on semi-regular routes at our venue.
Contact Orchide2 or Samual Wetherby if you have any questions.
