The little stint (Calidris minuta) (or Erolia minuta), is a very small wader. It breeds in arctic Europe and Asia, and is a long-distance migrant, wintering south to Africa and south Asia. It occasionally is a vagrant to North America and to Australia.
Its small size, fine dark bill, dark legs and quicker movements distinguish this species from all waders except the other dark-legged stints. It can be distinguished from these in all plumages by its combination of a fine bill tip, unwebbed toes and long primary projection. The call is a sharp "stit".
The breeding adult has an orange wash to the breast, a white throat and a strong white V on its back. In winter plumage identification is difficult. Juveniles have pale crown stripes and a pinkish breast.
An apparent hybrid between this species and Temminck's stint has been reported from the Netherlands.
You can see the reflection of our garage and the railing around the deck in Precious' eye if you "view all sizes."
This photo was made for Macro Mondays, the challenge was “Reflections."
Taken at my sisters wedding. She is a very happy new bride!
This photo took a lot of photoshop work to get it to this stage. I have the same shot with 4 other combinations. I went back and forth on the one I liked the best. The day was extremely bright, with the only clouds being on the horizon. There are 7 filters on the sky alone, just to get the clouds to show up! There are things I like and dislike about the editing on this photo, but ultimately I wanted my sister, her husband and the emotion of the shot to shine through. I think it does!
All comments welcome. Please do not use this photo or any other of my photos without my written permission, Thanks!
Canning Dock is a dock, on the River Mersey, England and part of the Port of Liverpool. It is situated in the southern dock system, connected to Salthouse Dock to the south and Canning Half Tide Dock to the west. The Canning Graving Docks are accessed from the dock.
The dock was opened in 1737 as a protected tidal basin providing an entrance to Old Dock. Having been subsequently enclosed as a wet dock three years earlier, in 1832 it was officially named after the Liverpool MP, George Canning. To the east is the site of Old Dock, built in 1709, this was the world first enclosed dock. Canning Dock would have initially served ships involved in the trans Atlantic slave trade.
Access to the northern half of the dock system was via Georges Dock, George's Basin and into Princes Dock. In 1899, both Georges Basin and George's Dock were filled in and the site is now the Pier Head.
Along with the Albert Dock and others in the immediate vicinity, Canning Dock was abandoned as a commercial shipping facility in 1972 due to the rising cost of dredging and falling numbers in traffic. It was restored in the 1980s and provides access to the Canning Graving Docks, which are part of the Merseyside Maritime Museum.
By March 2009 work was completed on a £22 million extension of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, providing a further 1.4 miles of navigable waterway.
From Princes Dock, the extension passes the Pier Head and terminates at Canning Dock. The extension includes a small basin at Mann Island, in the vicinity of the Pier Head, and a new lock providing access to Canning Dock.

Taken out in Co.Clare late last evening :) The reflection is not created by water!! :) but off the roof of the car!!
The little stream at the Humpback Rocks Visitor Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway was flowing over some leaves and other greenery when I was there yesterday, creating an interesting effect.
"Winter Reflections" Unframed image size 14 x 20.25 inches. This is a signed print from a watercolor by Harry Richardson.
This is the back of a 1700s stone farmhouse near Smithsburg, Maryland. A large limestone spring gushes from the basement of this unique property. During colonial times this building may have housed a dairy or other businesses requiring large amounts of pure, cool spring water.
The approx. framed size of this scene is 25 x 31 inches.
