In the glare of the spotlight, the world fell away. The movements as repetitive as the mantra blaring in her head: Practice makes perfect.....
We went back and found the fledglings again. This chick was flapping its wings and taking short flights from branch to branch.
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
- Muhammed Ali
(222/365) It was a lovely warm evening on Monday while my sister was visiting from England & as she's not likely to come over during Winter (meaning I won't see her again until next Summer) so we switched on the Christmas lights over our pergola. For 115 pictures in 2015 #93 Light painting

Created for the Toy Sunday theme, SPOOKY.
Juvenile little owl practice its flight over the roof before trying longer flights away from the nest building.
The Yellowhammer is a striking farmland bunting recognised for the male’s bright yellow head and underparts, chestnut-streaked back, and distinctive “little-bit-of-bread-and-no-cheese” song. Females are duller, with more subdued yellow tones and heavier streaking. This species favours open countryside, hedgerows, farmland, and rough grassland where it feeds mainly on seeds in winter and insects during the breeding season. Yellowhammers often perch conspicuously on bushes or fence posts while singing. Once widespread across the UK, populations have declined in some areas due to changes in agricultural practices, but they remain a familiar sight in suitable rural habitats.
Practice Makes Perfect - A couple weeks ago, I observed a cooperative immature Red-tailed Hawk on a family hike. I didn't get the shots I wanted that day, but figured I'd try again.
My buddy and I were treated to almost an hour of great passes by this hawk during a windy morning as it practiced hunting and chased a group of Turkey Vultures around. Was a great opportunity to practice bird in flight (BIF) techniques!

The beach in Mallorca was teaming with early morning activity of volleyball enthusiasts practicing their game.

This old truck has served its later years as a target for bored local residents.About 50 feet to the left of the truck,there was a pile of 12 gauge shells.From the size of the pile,they AREN'T very good marksman...well it is a 12 gauge after all...
Happy truck/target practice Thursday everyone!

Going to practice more so I can do photographs for people~
The Blue Angles are stationed in Pensacola, Florida where i live. And the Navy Base is about 2 miles from my house. This morning I walked out into the yard and they were practicing for the 2009 season. This one flew right over the house... They are practicing again tomorrow so hopefully i can get some better details. It's really hard to get a good pic of a jet... but i could watch them all day! They are definitely a piece of my childhood :)

After finally finishing unpacking the obvious next step was to start practicing. Alison pulled her wand from her holster and took a step toward the trunk. Keeping her distance she pushed the trunk's lid open with the tip of her sneakers and quickly jumped back. A grin struck her face and she was ready!

Two weeks before they leave the nest, young ospreys start flapping their wings and trying to get airborne.
Müritz National Park, northern Germany.
Wenn die jungen Fischadler beginnen, mit den Flügeln zu schlagen,macht sich die Mutter langsam auf den Weg nach Afrika. Der Vater füttert noch zwei Wochen weiter, dann fliegt auch er los. Nun müssen die Jungen allein klarkommen, und die lange Reise ins Winterquartier überstehen. Faszinierend, dass alle getrennt fliegen. Das Elternpaar sieht sich auch in Afrika nicht, aber kehrt im Folgejahr im Abstand von nur 1-2 Tagen zum Mecklenburger Nest zurück.
