I pass by this farm several times a week and seldom do I see such a beautiful sky as I did this day. The farm is best viewed from the interstate, so I pulled off and onto the shoulder of the road, jumped into the back of my truck and got a view quick shots off. The large trucks going by at 70+mph caused me and my truck to shake quite a bit, so I'm not totally happy with the sharpness, but I do like the overall effect. I cropped and adjusted the levels some in PS.
Snowy egret dances at the San Louis National Wildlife Refuge can end as quickly as they began. And, when they flare their feathers, snowy egret necks look like pipe cleaners.
The American Goldfinch is the only member of the finch family that undergoes any plumage changes during the year. Their plumage becomes less colourful in fall and winter.
They prefer a habitat of open country where they can forage on the many weed seeds they consume with some brush and trees nearby for shelter and nesting. Other than the breeding season they are very social and will flock with numerous other species.
Being the very active and acrobatic little songbirds they are we often see them clinging to weed seed heads especially thistles. Because they are heavy seed eaters they nest later in the summer than other species supposedly so they have a plentiful supply of late summer seeds for their chicks. Their young mature very quickly leaving the nest in only 11 to 17 days after hatching.
Quick shot with my phone whilst making coffee during a break from my work desk at home. A rare shaft of sunlight - I couldn’t resist doing something with it.
Being on vacation is too great, i squat my computer, i watched all seasons of Game of Throne, Part 1 of the walking dead season 10 and other series but i also took the time to make a new makeup for my sl avatar.

Mr Crissy was marching towards the food, trying not to get blown sideways, it was sunny and pretty windy today. If you zoom in you can also see him with a nice big smile.

The False Garden Mantis I recently found in my potted Chrysanthemum is still there and came out yesterday as I was watering my plant. She then posed gracefully for me :)
I have another yellow Chrysanthemum in my flower bed and, today, found another, younger Mantis among the flowers but she quickly hid in the foliage when she saw me :( /
La Mante Religieuse que j'ai decouverte recemment dans mon Chrysantheme en pot s'y trouve toujours. Elle est sortie hier, alors que j'arrosais ma plante et a pris la pose fort gracieusement :)
J'ai un autre Chrysantheme jaune dans mon parterre de fleurs et aujourd'hui j'y ai trouve une autre Mante Religieuse, plus jeune et plus peureuse, qui s'est empressee de se cacher dans le feuillage lorsqu'elle m'a vue !
Never like self portraits so not an easy topic. Here's me playing a spot of chess, my other passion. Just wish I was better at it.
It's back to FLYING PIKA season!! Without a doubt, these little ones are probably the most challenging wildlife subjects I photograph, and maybe, the most rewarding. American Pika live up high in the alpine environments and spend their summers collecting various tundra vegetation to store in their numerous winter stash piles scattered throughout the boulder and talus fields where they live. They are closely related to rabbits, but are much smaller. They survive on their rations throughout the winter. It's very important for them to be able to collect what they need to survive the harsh winters in the alpine. Pika are adorable, hardy, unbelievably quick, tiny ( about the size of a hamster) and just all around enjoyable.
A quick post of a bird shot from last year. Played with this a little while back and I like how it came out.

...and speaking of Quick....this Heron is searching for his dinner and as He intently watches and waits, when that moment comes, it is amazing to watch how Quick he is to grab his food. I watched this gorgeous Heron Quickly grab and swallow 3 good sized fish in about 5 minutes of fishing! I love watching these birds fish, they are amazing and incredibly graceful!
I hope your week is off to a great start and if not....well you can always push that restart button and begin again! Enjoy & have a wonderful day my friends!
A quick phone snap as we were passing today. I'll replace it when I have remembered to bring my main camera with me. Later: now replaced!
This is St Michael's Church at the tiny village of Haselbech in Northamptonshire. It is Grade II*-listed and parts of it date from the 13th and 14th centuries. The beautiful west tower dates from around 1500. I always find it remarkable how so many relatively small English villages have beautiful medieval churches. The villages were clearly very much bigger in medieval times, and in the case of Haselbech this is confirmed at:
By "quick" I mean I've been standing here dramatically for 45 minutes, judging everyone who isn't even present.
The cigar is almost gone.
My patience left three business days ago.

I'm not looking forward to the bugs, washouts, excessive trackwork or sun kinks, but this sure looks better than the negative degrees fuck this weather we're currently experiencing. WAMX 4187 and friends get after it at Slinger on a clear indication on to the CN Waukesha Subdivision with T004H on a beautiful summer of 2020 morning.
