Los cuernos de las orugas se denominan "omasterium" y es un órgano retráctil (similar a los ojos de los caracoles) que usan cuando se sienten amenazadas a modo de aparato defensivo.
El omasterium sorprende al depredador (pequeños mamíferos, pájaros, reptiles, etc.) y suelta un desagradable olor que dice: ¡Ojo!, incomible.
Los colores aposemáticos de la oruga, también sirven para que el depredador las reconozca con facilidad y no vuelva a acercarse a otra oruga similar nunca más.
Gracias Suso!!!
Color Position Lights as far as the eye can see! West Baltimore was a fantastic spot to photograph if you wanted to include some B&O signals in your shot.

Handleturer på Ikea er ikke akkurat forbundet med glede. Heller ikke denne gangen. Jeg hadde derfor tatt med fotosekken for å gjøre turen mer hyggelig. På vei til Oslo regnet det så ille at jeg ikke stoppet. På vei tilbake regnet det fortsatt i bøtter og spann, men jeg stoppet på ren trass. Planen var å ta bilder langs elvepromenaden i Drammen. Jeg dro innom en butikk for å få pose rundt kamera og var nok ikke særlig optimistisk i forhold til mulighetene. Tok noen bilder i trappen ned mot elva, men manglet en menneskeskikkelse. Da kom det en mann gående mot meg. Han kunne ikke norsk og dårlig engelsk, men han lot til å forstå at jeg ønsket at han skulle fortsette opp trappen. Jeg rakk tre-fire skudd hvorav ett satt som det skulle.
Dette er et bilde med stor grad av symmetri. Det er bare rekkverket og stolpen til venstre som gir en viss asymmetri. Dybdeskarpheten er bra til tross for en stor blender. Bildet gikk inn på topp 20 på Explore den 17. september 2013 og er mitt mest sette på Flickr noensinne, med nær 25.000.

For me, shopping at Ikea is not associated with pleasure. Nor this time. I took my photobag with me to make the trip more enjoyable. On the way to Oslo it rained so bad that I did`nt stop. On the way back the rain still poured down, but I stopped of pure spite. I wanted to take pictures along the riverwalk in Drammen. Went to a store to get the plastic bag around the camera and was probably not very optimistic about the prospects. In the stairs down to the river I took some pictures. I lacked, however, a human form. Then a man came walking towards me. He could not Norwegian and talked bad English, but he seemed to understand that I wanted him to continue up the stairs. I managed three to four shots.
This is an image with a high degree of symmetry. The depth is good despite a large aperture. The picture went into the top 20 on Explore, and is my most viewed shot at Flickr.
This guy stayed in this position for so long that even I was bored with shooting him. I kept hoping he would reveal a little more of that turquoise band of feathers, for which he was presumably named, but this was pretty much all that he showed, at least that I was able to capture. Hopefully, you can imagine how beautiful he is when there is a solid strip of turquoise feathers.

Anybody who watched Zoo days on Channel 5, here in the UK yesterday, will have seen this lil guy getting a hair cut..:O))
They are used to being in a cold climate, but a Hmmmmm, "HOT" summer in Colchester, makes them uncomfortable, so they are grateful for the close shave...They look a lot different naked..lol
The Cheetahs in the Zoo were happy about the hair cut though, because they got to play with the cuttings....The progamme is on again in an hour for anybody who's interested..:O))
Anyhoo West Ham are playing live on Sky Sports 2 again this evening, at Home to Hull City...it's a real 6 pointer as we are only 8 points off, of going down..all prayers gratefully received...lol..:O)))
I hope everybody is having a great Hump Day Wednesday..:O))
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~ The Alpaca (Vicugna pacos) is a domesticated species of South American camelid. It resembles a small llama in superficial appearance.
Alpacas are kept in herds that graze on the level heights of the Andes of Ecuador, southern Peru, northern Bolivia, and northern Chile at an altitude of 3,500 m (11,483 ft) to 5,000 m (16,404 ft) meters above sea-level, throughout the year.[citation needed] Alpacas are considerably smaller than llamas, and unlike llamas, alpacas are not used as beasts of burden but are valued only for their fiber. Alpaca fiber is used for making knitted and woven items, much as sheep's wool is. These items include blankets, sweaters, hats, gloves, scarves, a wide variety of textiles and ponchos in South America, and sweaters, socks, coats and bedding in other parts of the world. The fiber comes in more than 52 natural colors as classified in Peru, 12 as classified in Australia and 16 as classified in the United States. Alpacas and llamas differ in that alpacas have straight ears and llamas have banana-shaped ears. Aside from these differences, llamas are on average 1-2 feet taller and proportionally bigger than alpacas.
In the textile industry, "alpaca" primarily refers to the hair of Peruvian alpacas, but more broadly it refers to a style of fabric originally made from alpaca hair but now often made from similar fibers, such as mohair, Icelandic sheep wool, or even high-quality English wool. In trade, distinctions are made between alpacas and the several styles of mohair and luster.
Behavior ~ Alpacas are social herd animals that live in family groups consisting of a territorial alpha male, females and their young. They are gentle, elegant, inquisitive, intelligent and observant. As they are a prey animal, they are cautious and nervous if they feel threatened. They like having their own space and may not like an unfamiliar alpaca or human getting close, especially from behind. They warn the herd about intruders by making sharp, noisy inhalations that sound like a high pitch burro bray. The herd may attack smaller predators with their front feet, and can spit and kick. Due to the soft pads on their feet, the impact of a kick is not as dangerous as that of a hoofed animal, yet it still can give quite a bruise, and the pointed nails can inflict cuts.
Spitting ~ Not all alpacas spit, but all are capable of doing so. "Spit" is somewhat euphemistic; occasionally the projectile contains only air and a little saliva but alpacas commonly bring up acidic stomach contents (generally a green grassy mix) and project it onto their chosen target. Spitting is mostly reserved for other alpacas, but an alpaca will occasionally spit at humans that, for example, take away food.
For alpacas, spitting results in what is called "sour mouth." Sour mouth is characterized by a loose-hanging lower lip and a gaping mouth. This is caused by the stomach acids and unpleasant taste of the contents as they pass out of the mouth.
Some alpacas will spit when looked at, others will never spit—their personalities are very individualized and there is no hard and fast rule in terms of social behavior, although there is often a group leader, and a group trailer/runt that is picked on by others.
Physical contact ~ Once they know their owners and feel confident around them, alpacas may allow their backs and necks to be touched. They do not like being grabbed. Once socialized well, some alpacas tolerate being stroked or petted anywhere on their bodies, although many do not like their feet, lower legs, and especially their abdomen touched or handled. If an owner needs to catch an alpaca, the neck offers a good handle—holding the neck firmly between the arms is the best way to restrain the animal. Holding the neck from the rear with the animal's head under one's arm is also very effective.
Hygiene ~ To help alpacas control their internal parasites they have a communal dung pile, where they do not graze. Generally, males have much tidier, and fewer dung piles than females who tend to stand in a line and all go at once. One female approaches the dung pile and begins to urinate and/or defecate, and the rest of the herd often follows.
Because of their preference for using a dung pile, some alpacas have been successfully house-trained.

Built in 1989 for Germany, he served there until 1996, when he returned to his homeland. Since then, he's been operated by Agria Volán, and later KMKK Eger, until getting shut down recently in September of 2019.
In his last weeks, he mainly served as a reserve bus, occasionally helping out on the local lines, like on this picture.

Best Christian Movie | "Yearning" | God Reveals the Mystery of Kingdom of Heaven (English Dubbed)
Two thousand years ago, the Lord Jesus promised His followers: "I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to myself; that where I am, there you may be also" (John 14:2-3). Because of this, generations of believers have continued to obsessively hope and pray for the fulfillment of the Lord's promise, and hope and pray that they are raptured into the heavens to meet the Lord and enter into the kingdom of heaven when the Lord comes.
This also describes this film's protagonist, Chen Xiangguang. He is an enthusiastic seeker, spreads the gospel, and bears witness to the Lord in order to welcome the Lord's coming. In spite of being dismissed from his position in a school and failing to gain understanding from his family members, he never gives up the hope in his heart. One day while in a gathering, Chen Xiangguang is arrested and thrown in jail by the Chinese Communist government. Under God's wondrous rule and arrangements, he encounters Zhao Zhiming, a Christian from The Church of Almighty God. Zhao Zhiming gives him testimony on God's appearance and work in the last days, resolving his years of notions and imagination in hoping and praying for the Lord's return. After getting out of prison, Chen Xiangguang leads his brothers and sisters to look into Almighty God's work in the last days. Everyone finally comes to understand what it is to be raptured into the kingdom of heaven, whether the kingdom is really on earth or in heaven, and how people should welcome the Lord's return ...
Eastern Lightning, The Church of Almighty God was created because of the appearance and work of Almighty God, the second coming of the Lord Jesus, Christ of the last days. It is made up of all those who accept Almighty God's work in the last days and are conquered and saved by His words. It was entirely founded by Almighty God personally and is led by Him as the Shepherd. It was definitely not created by a person. Christ is the truth, the way, and the life. God's sheep hear God's voice. As long as you read the words of Almighty God, you will see God has appeared.

Same position as last shot, only slightlyreframed. The difference apart from B&W to the last shot is the exposure. Some 4 minutes long, the cloud movement really shows the affect of updraft on the sky. Incase you wonder why the centre is bright, like the last shot the sun is in the centre with clouds shadowing the mountains. Such shots arent everyones cup of tea, but i am just expanding my portfolio.

Crystal clear water, white sand and blue sky; maybe this is the definition of tropical paradise.
Located 20 minutes east of Phuket, Koh Khai Nok is a tiny idyllic island; little more than a forested lump poking out of the sea ringed by white sand and coral. I heard during high tides only peak of these rocks can be seen while rest goes under the water.
Trivia
Khai Nok Island where the white sandy beach meets the emerald Andaman Sea is famous among tourists for feeding fish.
I wanted to capture something different to the usual bluebell carpet/green woodland shots. I tried a few things out and I really like how this one worked. I've seen wildlife photographers do this sort of thing by getting down low and using a heavily out of focus foreground. I like the contrast in colours here and the simplicity of it.
