Great Tit [Parus Major]
A lovely afternoon brought literally hundreds of wee birdies to my feeders at The Pixies.
This Great Tit waited on a branch for a few seconds, before darting down to get a peanut. Sometimes, they will sit and eat sunflower hearts but normally they just swoop in, take a nut, and fly off, then come back and repeat the procedure. Apparently, they stash their food for later.

For years I have tried to get a really good photo of a Black-capped Chickadee. These little guys are so quick. I was fortunate to catch one in flight.
Boy, let me tell you! You had to be quick to get a shot of this little Winter Wren. It barley stopped to get a shot. Spent almost an hour with it. Bucks County PA.
the secret of the fox
ancient mystery
somewhere deep in the woods
I know you're hiding
what is your sound?
will we ever know?
will always be a mystery
what do you say?
*I took this awhile ago at Dispersion, but think it may be closed now?
Hark, now hear the sailors cry,
Smell the sea, and feel the sky,
Let your soul & spirit fly, into the mystic.

I saw a hooded merganser couple in the creek from a distance. They swam away from me, so I continued with other subjects. I noted that the drake was approaching, and took up a position where I could catch a glimpse of him through the foliage. This was the result - one of the closest encounters I've had with a hooded merganser!
Her: Be quick, we need to get out of here!
Him: Wait this is heavy!!

To test out the bounce flash settings I was using my brother-in-law was kind enough to pause for the quick portrait.

This European Goldfinch female appeared suddenly in front of me when I continued my walk outside Karkarook Park behind some industrial storage sheds. She sat only some 3-4 meters away and I almost panicked, desperately trying to focus with my 500mm lens. She allowed just two quick shots and disappeared.
So much snow the last few days that I'm starting to tire of it. The dogs , however, are still loving every minute.
Pretty much says what I did here, with the rain coming down and another car coming along the narrow road, I jumped out camera in had and did a twelve shot pano beside Cummock water Cumbria .
A quick glimpse of a coyote running through the open fields before quickly disappearing into the forest.
Quick story about Iguana. Many moons ago I accompanied my son and a few of his 7th grade classmates to Guyana. We were in the Amazon forest being cared for by a very nice woman and a woodsman who would lead us to find snakes and other critters in the forest. The woman asked me if I would like Iguana for dinner and I said “Sure, I’ll try it.” She brought some to the camp, which had no electricity or refrigeration of any type. The Iguana were on the ground with their legs were tied behind their back. I asked our caretaker if the meat would spoil if it wasn’t cooked that day. She laughed and informed me that they Iguana were very much alive and would keep for days. The kids heard that and next thing I knew the Iguana were set free. I can honestly say I was not disappointed.
With that diversion aside, this guy was changing positions in the snag at Green Cay and gave me this interesting pose in the strong morning light. (Green Iguana with a most creative scientific name: Iguana iguana) (Sony a1, 400mm, f/2.8, 1/1600 second, ISO 640)

On my recce for compositions for sunsets, arriving on the first top the Beacon I get caught in a shower. I wander off path to the cairn as the shower passes over and glance over my shoulder, quick a rainbow. Sack off, camera out, change to wide angle, check the settings, try to find a composition, oh and dial in the polariser, nothing to it.
