(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)
Wild South Africa
Kruger National Park
One of three female lions waiting for their turn at a water hole, hurriedly getting out of the way of a boisterous elephant. The shot was taken late-afternoon in fading light and the focus is not perfect, although it enhances the impression of movement somewhat.
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.
Herons and egrets seem to be loners as a rule, more likely to chase an intruder away than interact in a civil manner, but we are in mating season so this trio of Great Blue Herons may be vying for attention, or they may still be remnants of the group of seven fledglings that were hanging out together last fall on Horsepen Bayou.
A young RAF pilot stands by his Spitfire waiting for the call to scramble in the last of the daylight. In the background a Lysander is ready for its night mission to insert SOE agents into France.

Another food flat lay. I was trying to make it a bit fun but it feels a bit stiff to me. Happy Thursday!

Diminutive forest denizen briefly paused afore ascending tree trunk. Not as tight a focus as I would like..but had to improvise quickly before he (or her) got moving again!
Vertical scramble ... aka pins & needles ... not sure if that's how the lamb felt, but I know with 100% certainty, that's how I felt.
Watching these young lambs as they followed the ewes all over the mountainside ... up and down those cliffs. I found myself so incredibly nervous for them, though they seemed to be quite comfortable with it. Good thing too, as they will be needing those skills throughout life for their survival. Sometimes they're jumping from cliff to cliff, other times they're running up these vertical sections, or as in this case, descending on them. Thankfully the "photo shoot" was a safe one for them. Such amazing animals. :-)
Thanks so much for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

Yes, I know.. horizon is not leveled.. ..smidgen..
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.
