(I got the macro itch from [https://www.flickr.com/photos/nrg_crisis] and [https://www.flickr.com/photos/alvinharp] earlier today that I just had to scratch :-)))) ; still no macro lens so extension tubes had to do; the photo was lit with a flashlight)
Thank you for taking the time to view my images - I really appreciate it. I will try to visit your sites in due course. Flickr has so many wonderful photos that inspire me to experiment and try harder with my own photography.
Redhead drake.
One Redhead in group of 40 ducks. I waited patiently for him to take to flight. Regrettably, all the ducks took to flight simultaneously. I could not track him through the commotion. The blast off reminded me of the military term “scramble to take off.” When necessary, pilots would “scramble” to their planes to take off as soon as possible.
The Bisti Badlands in New Mexico hold an array of discoveries for someone willing to hike and explore.
The Egg Field is no secret and can easily be found @ 1.5 miles from the gate at the parking lot. Simply start walking and stay to your right and you'll find the Eggs.

Waterscape #3 of 100 for 2025.
Wybung Head, perched in the Munmorah State Conservation Area, is the kind of place that earns its name. "Wybung" is a local Aboriginal word meaning "Dangerous Sea," and this headland delivers on that promise with sheer, unfenced cliffs and an ocean that is perpetually trying to lull unwary rock fisherman, and photographers, to their grave.
The headland offers 270-degree views of the coastline, and on a clear day, you can see for miles—just don’t get too close to those crumbly edges. Whale watchers and ocean gazers find plenty to love here. However, shade and shelter are entirely absent, and the wind shows no mercy. We visited on a Wednesday afternoon when the temperature soared into the 30s °C and the wind gusted at 40 km/h. I’ve never felt closer to understanding life inside an air fryer.
After edging uncomfortably close to the edge of the crumbly cliffs at the end of the headland for the obligatory heart-stopping views, we decided to head down to the cheerily named Deadman’s Beach. Because why wouldn’t you follow up a stop at "Dangerous Sea" with a jaunt to "Deadman’s Beach"? “Track” is a generous term—it’s more like a gravity experiment with added rocks. From there, we scrambled around the rockshelf to Frazer Beach for a swim. The ocean has never felt so refreshing! The crowd (about a dozen people) wasn’t ideal, but hey, its school holidays, and the nearby campground explains the human influx.
This photo captures Wybung Head itself, though its sheer scale is hard to convey. If you squint, you might spot a post with a lifejacket at the end of the rockshelf to the bottom right of Wybung, a small but poignant reminder of the dangers of the seas at this beautiful place.
Have a great week out there.

I use this small whisk every morning to scramble two eggs. Sometimes I just have the scrambled eggs mixed with diced roasted long green chiles, sometimes made into a breakfast burrito with either smoked salmon and dill, chorizo, or chicken cooked with green chiles.

Always such a pleasure to watch and a challenge to photograph the wonderful Red Arrows!
I do hope you've enjoyed my selection of snaps from this year's Bournemouth Air Festival.
The route from Barker Dam over the ridge to Fang Canyon is a bit sketchy at times. It can be challenging to find the way when traveling over bare rock and when pushing through cactus, brush and tree branches. But it was fun to figure it out. Luckily, we made it through successfully!
This incoming Male requires a bit more attention and the dominant Male has decided to scramble to the air to sort him out.

Interesting to watch the males establish who's boss. It became apparent that it was a game of 'King of the Lilly'. The young pretenders would buzz the dominant male frequently and when they got close he would flare his wings out to show his patterns to them. Now, what they see as impressive in that is a mystery to me. Maybe it's the amount of black or broadness of the wings that make them veer off or sometimes attack if they think they are up to it.
