El barrancolà picogrueso o cortacubas de pico ancho (Todus subulatus) es una especie de ave coraciforme de la familia Todidae endémica de la isla de La Española.
Mide de 11 a 12 cm de longitud y pesa en promedio 9,8 g. Es un ave de pequeño tamaño, de pico recto, relativamente corto y ancho. El plumaje de sus partes superiores es verde claro, su garganta roja y el resto de sus partes inferiores es blanquecino con matices grisáceos, amarillos y rosados y con tonos rojizos en los flancos.
Mientras que su pariente el barrancolà picofino prefiere las zonas altas, el barrancolà picogrueso prefiere los hábitats de bosque de montaña muy húmedo a más baja altitud, entre los 435 y 1.700 msnm. Para anidar, excava túneles en los taludes fluviales como un martÃn pescador.

The Broad-billed Tody (Todus subulatus) is one of the two species of tody native to the island of Hispaniola. It can be identified by its small size, stubby beak, ruby-red throat, and green back.
While its close relative, the Narrow-billed Tody is more prevalent in the higher altitude areas, the Broad-billed Tody prefers lower altitude habitats. To nest, it digs into a river bank, similar to a kingfisher.
The Broad-billed Tody is evaluated as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
Endemic of Dominican Republic.

The ruby-red steps (lit up at night) in Manhattan's Father Duffy Square, at the northern edge of Times Square. They're surrounded by huge signs for current Broadway shows.
I'm back...
It's another experimental shot I guess. My second attempt at the Absolut bottle. The first one is here...

I have since gotten a few more to play with ;-) It's less "fun" but I hope you like it!

In Houston, the fine for assault is $500. The fine for consuming alcohol off premises is $175. The fine for giving a firearm to a child, is $500. The fine for leaving an unattended child in a car is $500. But starting Monday, the fine for not wearing a face covering in Houston is $1,000, and possibly 180 days in jail.
So, do they really think the police are going to arrest people and put them in jail for not wearing a handkerchief over their face when they just sent rapists and robbers home because it wasn’t safe for them in jail? Give me a break.
While wearing a face mask may be a prudent thing to do, allowing an inexperienced 29-year-old anti-capitalist activist turned county judge to make decisions that control commerce and personal behavior in a county that includes most of the City of Houston, is NOT a prudent thing to do.
It must have been a dream come true to shut down practically every evil capitalistic small business in town. She probably never dared to dream she would ever have that much power while she was protesting against capitalism and ranting against businesses. But this is America, and anything can happen if the people drop their guard.
Apparently, she had the power all along.. She just needed to learn it for herself..

An early morning breakfast treat - the delicious Ruby Red grapefuit. This photo was illuminated with light from north window to the right and white board fill from the left. The fruit sets upon a white plate. Processed using Picnik.com
The pattern is known as Cavalier and was made in the 1970's by J.G. Durand (Luminarc) of Verrerie Cristallerie dArques in France. They are also sometimes called Luminarc Arcoroc Dinnerware. The entire set is made of barrel shaped ruby red bodies with clear glass round bases. Each base has a molded France in tiny capital letters on the bottom - the Luminarc mark used in the early 1970s. Lots of people collect these glasses as the colour is just stunning and many use them as a Christmas formal set for their holiday table.
