The Indian pangolin, thick-tailed pangolin, or scaly anteater (Manis crassicaudata) is a pangolin found on the Indian subcontinent. It is not common anywhere in its range. Like other pangolins, it has large, overlapping scales on its body which act as armour. It can also curl itself into a ball as self-defence against predators such as the tiger. The colour of its scales varies depending on the colour of the earth in its surroundings.
It is an insectivore, feeding on ants and termites, digging them out of mounds and logs using its long claws, which are as long as its fore limbs. It is nocturnal and rests in deep burrows during the day.
The Indian pangolin is threatened by hunting for its meat and for various body parts used in traditional medicine.
The Indian pangolin is a solitary, shy, slow-moving, nocturnal mammal. It is about 84–122 centimetres (33–48 in) long from head to tail, the tail usually being 33–47 cm long, and weighs 10–16 kg. Females are generally smaller than the males and have one pair of mammae. The pangolin possesses a cone-shaped head with small, dark eyes, and a long muzzle with a nose pad similar in color, or darker than, its pinkish-brown skin. It has powerful limbs, tipped with sharp, clawed digits. It is an almost exclusive insectivore and principally subsists on ants and termites, which it catches with a specially adapted long, sticky tongue.The pangolin has no teeth, but has strong stomach muscles to aid in digestion. The most noticeable characteristic of the pangolin is its massive, scaled armour, which covers its upper face and its whole body with the exception of the belly and the inside of the legs. These protective scales are rigid and made of keratin. It has 160–200 scales in total, about 40–46% of which are located on the tail. Scales can be 6.5–7 cm long, 8.5 cm wide, and weigh 7–10 grams. The skin and scales make up about one-fourth to one-third of the total body mass of this species.
The Indian pangolin has been recorded from various forest types, including Sri Lankan rainforest and plains to middle hill levels. The animal can be found in grasslands and secondary forests, and is well adapted to desert regions as it is believed to have a tolerance to dry areas, but prefers more barren, hilly regions. This pangolin species may also sometimes reach high elevations, and has been sighted in Sri Lanka at 1100 meters and in the Nilgiri mountains in India at 2300 meters. It prefers soft and semi-sandy soil conditions suitable for digging burrows.
Pangolin burrows fall into one of two categories: feeding and living burrows. Feeding burrows are smaller than living burrows (though their sizes vary depending on the abundance of prey) and are created more frequently during the spring, when there is a greater availability of prey. Living burrows are wider, deeper, and more circular, and are occupied for a longer time than feeding burrows, as they are mainly used to sleep and rest during the day. After a few months, the pangolin abandons the burrow and digs a new one close to a food source. However, it is not uncommon for the pangolin to shift back to an old burrow.
Unlike its African counterpart, the Indian pangolin does not climb trees, but it does value the presence of trees, herbs, and shrubs in its habitat because it is easier to dig burrows around them. Features that promote an abundance of ants and termites (grasses, bare grounds, bases of trees, shrubs, roots, leaf litter, fallen logs and elephant feces) are often present in pangolin habitats.
Few details are known about the breeding behaviour of the Indian pangolin. During the animal's mating period, females and males may share the same burrow and show some diurnal activities. Males have testes in a fold of the skin located in their groin areas. The female's embryo develops in one of the uterine horns. The gestation period lasts 65–70 days; the placenta is diffuse and not deciduate. Usually, a single young is born, but twins have been reported in this species. The young weigh 235–400 g at birth and measure roughly 30 cm. The newborn animals have open eyes, and soft scales with protruding hairs between them. The mother pangolin carries her young on her tail. When the mother and young are disturbed, the young pangolin is held against its mother's belly and protected by the mother's tail.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
After I took the shot on the pier with the folks fishing, we wrapped it up and were headed back to the car. I no sooner got to the car when the clouds really started to show some pink. I set my camera up and decided to try a few long exposures. This was the last shot I took with a 13 s. exposure. A nearby car had it's lights on that lit up some of the sticks.
A beautiful sunset from Bayport Park, Bayport, Florida. Home to the Manatees, the sticks have been placed in the water to help promote sea grass growth for the manetee to graze on.
Taken 32 minutes after sunset.
A twist of fate and a wrong turn took us to this fishing pier instead of the swimming park. In the comments, I includes a previous shot I took from the park.
I made this photo of a female Black-tailed Trainbearer (Lesbia victoriae) at the Observatorio de Colibríes in La Calera, near Bogotá, Colombia. The Black-tailed Trainbearer lives between 2,500 and 3,800 meters in Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Its habitats include moist montane forest, high-elevation shrubland and heavily degraded former forest. Females have a shorter tail than males and white underparts with green spots. At least 14 hummingbird species visit the observatory's single hectare, where the family has planted about 300 native flowering trees and shrubs. IUCN lists the Black-tailed Trainbearer as Least Concern, with a decreasing population.
I used a Pentax K-1 with the HD Pentax-D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6 for this one, at 1/60 sec, f/5.6, ISO 800. Victoria Lizarralde and her family began the observatory in 2005, and they plant native flowers, keep the feeders fresh and host school visits to promote conservation.

I made this photo of a Steely-vented Hummingbird (Saucerottia saucerottei) at the Recinto del Pensamiento in Manizales, Caldas, Colombia on July 19, 2018. It is a hummingbird of Colombia and Venezuela, dark glittering golden-green below with greenish to steel-blue undertail coverts. In most of its range it lives between sea level and about 1,500 meters and forages for nectar at low bushes and trees. It was formerly placed in the genus Amazilia. The Recinto del Pensamiento is a 179-hectare nature reserve of Andean cloud forest above 2,000 meters, at Km 11 on the road from Manizales to the Magdalena. IUCN lists the Steely-vented Hummingbird as Least Concern, with a decreasing population (2021).
I used a Pentax K-1 with the HD Pentax-D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6 for this one, at 1/160 sec, f/5.6, ISO 100. The reserve belongs to the Comité Departamental de Cafeteros de Caldas and is run by the Corporación para el Desarrollo de Caldas to promote nature tourism in Manizales.

A project by Ildefons Cerdà and another by Josep Amargós in 1894 proposed to convert Montjuïc into a residential area. Another idea for the celebration of the exhibition in Montjuïc was proposed in 1909 when Manuel Vega i March suggested that the culminating point of the development should be ‘a great Temple of Art, a summary and compendium of our most prodigious knowledge’. Finally, in 1913, it was decided that Montjuïc would be the definite location for the Exhibition of Electric Industries, promoted by the industry and the city council of Barcelona.

The best photo these days is simply the one with the biggest budget. It's expensive to spend time shooting, much more expensive to use the equipment, and even more expensive to promote the work...

i thought i'd get some signs and stuff ready to promote the 'It's yours, take it!' street exhibition for which i'm one of the 'nailers'.
as always i got sidetracked and did some free art too
Born from the bowels of the Free Art Friday Flickr Group, "It's yours, take it!" is a global free art project taking place in 5 cities. Stateside we have Chicago,Illinois, Honolulu,Hawaii and Phoenix, Arizona. Outside the land of consumption is Tel Aviv, Isreal and Portsmouth Hampshire, UK.
38 artists are contributing one piece each to these five locations. In place of curators we have "Nailers"... those that will be putting these pieces up at an impromptu outdoor location. The installations will be put up around the last weekend of March, 2008. Stay tuned for previews of finished pieces and complete photographic coverage!

Special logojet promoting 'Star Wars - Galaxy's Edge', the latest movie in the Star Wars franchise, featuring the 'Millennium Falcon'.
Final departure from Manchester for G-VLIP as it heads to Ciudad Real, central Spain, for storage.
Named: "Hot Lips", later "The Falcon" (Sep-19).
Originally ordered by GECAS for lease to Alitalia as EI-CVI, the lease was cancelled and the aircraft was leased to Virgin Atlantic Airways as G-VLIP in May-01.
In May-10 it carried large 'Harry Potter' graphics until Jan-11. In Sep-19 the aircraft was renamed 'The Falcon' and repainted in a Star Wars 'Millennium Falcon' special livery promoting the 'Star Ward - Galaxy's Edge' movie.
Virgin Atlantic were due to start retiring their seven remaining B747-400's from the end of 2000, however the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020 caused them to retire the aircraft early. All seven aircraft were initially stored at Manchester, UK in Mar/Apr-20.
They are gradually being moved to Ciudad Real in central Spain for long term storage and lease return. This aircraft ferried Manchester / Ciudad Real on 15-Jun-20.
It was ferried to London-Heathrow and onwards to Marana, AZ, USA in Dec-20 where it was permanently retired.
From the Bella Kotak workshop at PPC this year. I was so excited to finally learn from and meet her. She has been such a huge inspiration for me. It was really fun to incorporate something different into my work as well. <3

Procida is the smallest island of the Gulf of Naples; it is rich in attractions and archaeology. From the ground floor of Napoli Centro train station, you can take the metro to station Pozzuoli then get off and take the ferry at the port of Pozzuoli. The architecture of Procida has a Greek origin. In fact, the history of Procida is concentrated first of all on the medieval village “Terra Murata” and on “Corricella”, the fishing settlement. The island has served as the set for numerous films, such as The “Postman”, and some scenes in “The Talented Mr. Ripley” were shot on Corricella. The landmarks of Procida reflect typical Mediterranean pastel colours. Procida offers simply cooking and at least 10 excellent restaurants with plain cooking based on fresh fish. This simple style never fails, thanks to the 20 local fishing boats. The specialties of the cooking are: stewed rabbit (which goes back to the Borbonen who came on Procida to hunt the wild rabbit) and spaghetti with sea-urchin. Procida has 6 beaches with crystal-clear waters. Spent some relaxing days on this wonderful island. Experience the real Italy, lovely people, great views, great sand and great food.
Procida is not just a triumph of light and sea! It has its history like every other place, which here is made of wind, sea and faith. In 1811, the French poet and writer Alphonse De Lamartine arrived in Italy when he was only 21 years old. According to the story, the writer fell in love with a young local orphan named Graziella. Years later Lamartine decided to write a beautiful novel about this. This romantic love story was born on this island. They reconstructed this site two hundred years after this event. This Casa di Graziella is clearly much richer than a fisherman's house. The entire wardrobe is dated between 1800 and 1900. The purpose of the museum is to save and continue to promote the history and culture of Procida through the eyes of Graziella who lived and died for love. It gives an idea of how (not so poor people) lived in Procida 100 years ago. There is also an outside balcony from which you can see the Coast, Mount Vesuvius and surrounding Islands, including Capri.
Procida is het kleinste eiland van de Golf van Napels; het is rijk aan attracties en archeologie. Vanaf de begane grond van treinstation Napoli Centro kunt u de metro naar station Pozzuoli nemen, uitstappen en de veerboot nemen in de haven van Pozzuoli. De architectuur van Procida heeft een Griekse oorsprong. In feite is de geschiedenis van Procida allereerst geconcentreerd op het middeleeuwse dorp "Terra Murata" en op "Corricella", de vissersnederzetting. Het eiland heeft gediend als decor voor tal van films, zoals The "Postman", en sommige scènes in "The Talented Mr. Ripley" zijn opgenomen op Corricella. De herkenningspunten van Procida weerspiegelen typische mediterrane pastelkleuren. In 1811 arriveerde de Franse dichter en schrijver Alphonse De Lamartine in Italië toen hij nog maar 21 jaar oud was. Volgens het verhaal werd de schrijver verliefd op een jonge lokale wees genaamd Graziella. Jaren later besloot Lamartine een prachtige roman hier over te schrijven. Dit romantische liefdesverhaal werd geboren op dit eiland. Tweehonderd jaar na dit evenement hebben ze deze site gereconstrueerd. Dit huis is duidelijk veel rijker dan een vissershuis. De gehele kleerkast is gedateerd tussen 1800 en 1900. Het doel van het museum is om de geschiedenis en cultuur van Procida te redden en te blijven promoten door de ogen van Graziella die leefde en stierf voor liefde. Het geeft een idee hoe (niet zo arme mensen) 100 jaar geleden in Procida leefden. Er is ook een balkon van waaruit je de kust en de omliggende eilanden, waaronder Capri, kunt zien.

Stagecoach Fife 26168 (SN67 WWO) is an AD E20D/AD Enviro200 MMC new to the fleet in November 2017. It carries branding for service 747 between Halbeath Park & Ride and Edinburgh Airport. It is seen here in Edinburgh city centre with delegates at an event promoting CAV Forth.
CAV Forth is a collaborative project part funded by the UK Governments' Centre for the Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV). A consortium of UK partners are in the process of designing and developing a fleet of full size autonomous buses that will service a new Stagecoach operated route running from Ferrytoll P&R in Fife, across the Forth Road Bridge into Edinburgh Park's transport interchange.
Arriva London HV147 can be seen outside Bexleyheath town centre on route 301, heading westbound towards Woolwich. This vehicle at the time of when the picture was taken, had been wrapped in Elizabeth line livery, as a way to commemorate the opening of the line’s central section through London, four months beforehand.
