Scaled Quail are game birds found in the New World, which have became rather rare due to habitat destruction and hunting.
This isn't the quail *I* grew up with...but a Texas variety.

The salamanders know where they're going, and they may not move very fast, but they don't let anything get in their way!
East Brunswick closes this road to traffic a few nights a year to protect the Spotted Salamanders, which migrate across it to reach the vernal pools in which they breed. The salamanders move during very specific conditions: the first soaking nighttime rains of spring with temperatures over 40 deg F. More common amphibians can be found as well.
Postscript: This species is the first vertebrate ever found to harbor an intracellular symbiont -- in this case, photosynthetic algae. See www.nature.com/news/2010/100730/full/news.2010.384.html.
Day 3 [1-3-2016]
Today was a fantastic day filled with adventure. Began the day with a late wake up as usual and starting the day with a trip to the local dump and grocery store with my dad. Quickly after I picked up Teddy, Eric, and a friend I haven't seen since high school names Maggie. She has been a model for me in high school which is why she shows up in some of my earlier photos. We started our adventure with no destination in mind but slowly built up some ideas leading us through Wompatuck State Park, Granite Links country club, the Quincy quarries, and Harvard Square. Overall my day was quite enjoyable. I was really cutting it close with these uploads due to not having the time to pull out my laptop and upload photos until I returned home, but I am proud of my self for keeping up with this challenge I have given myself. I just have to remind myself that it has only been three days and the challenge has only just begin.
Can't wait to see what the next day brings!
This is a shipyard in downtown Singapore, taken from the top of a 50 story apartment complex. The size and scale of the shipping industry just amazes me, and this part of it is no different.
This one is an old one from Nova Scotia I think, so if I remember correctly this is a close up of part of a fish skeleton.
Wasn't going to post this but I vowed to post all my shots that I enter into my weekly challenge. It was a real struggle this week and this was all I got from a few ideas, so here it is.
Happy to have a new scale that seems to be working properly. Bad news is, it throws off my weight loss history. Husband agrees that this scale is probably more accurate and is about four pounds higher than the old one. So, yay for accuracy. But boo, for the appearance that I've gained weight.
Still sick. Sucks. Bad. Throat hurts less today. Chest hurts worse.
I made a half scale fireplace out of Sculpey clay. It didn't end too well.
