Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.
I have photographed several bird species around Ao Nang, in Thailand but this chestnut-headed bee-eater (merops leschenaulti) was, for me, a single and surprise sighting. More at "Colin Pacitti Wildlife Photography" - www.colin-pacitti.com.
A Louisville-bound Indiana Railroad freight was passing through Bedford on a hot humid day. This was one of the final INRD moves to Louisville before the traffic was shifted to the Louisville and Indiana and this trackage was abandoned.
Going back to this location, you'd never know a railroad once ran here. At least that homeowner got a larger yard.
This is now the Milwaukee Road Transportation Trailway.

Native Masked Bee (Hylaeus (Euprosopoides) perplexus)
My second sighting of this species of Masked Bee. I am hoping they will settle and set up a colony here.
This is about the 4th or 5th Ladybird I've seen this year. A great sight as I hadn't seen any for several years.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites.
Dad, I got a bead on Putin. Now, how do you start this thing?

Long live Ukraine.
"Long live Ukraine."
(Waiting for snow is the hardest thing to do, so hard I almost started a war with Russia all by myself out of frustration. Damn you Putin, and damn you global warming. When Dad was a kid he was at the outdoor skating rinks every Christmas day trying out new hockey gear. These days it's 50-50 that we'll even have a white Christmas. Take it to the streets, take it to your leaders, do your own part, and let's reverse this problem before we get to the point where nothing else will matter.)

Have you ever wondered how a drake Wood Duck in nuptial plumage, with his wide array of vibrant colors, can possibly blend into his environment? Well, this is how. Every color of this slightly-disheveled drake is echoed in his surroundings. You might think that the his white markings would stand out, but they actually help to break up his profile. You can also see bits of white as the sun reflects against the lily pads. At the bottom of the food chain, Wood Ducks must be extremely discreet, even as they dress their best to please the ladies.

I am curious what these pilings are from on the beaches of Cavendish, PEI. There are several groupings like this along the dunes and I'm guessing they are the remnants of jetties that once lines the shores. Still, jetties are usually built on a protected shore. These face the open ocean. What were they used for any why here? Perhaps someone on Flickr is aware of their history. I couldn't find any reference to them online or when we visited.
Either way, they are interesting to see and provided a nice line of sight to showcase the seemingly endless beach.

The pavilion as shown here is a common sight seen in all corners of any park in China. It's beautifully designed, well maintained, and represents a traditional public facility in China since time immemorial.
Last night (12 Aug) at 9:30 pm I received a phone call that Tidda was running at full speed on this bridge, trying to get home! There are big logging trucks going over this narrow bridge and even at night there are trucks and traffic with gaps only just long enough for a dog to run across at high speed. It was a bold and daring move but her only possible way home.
Unfortunately, once again people trying to catch her drove her to turn around and disappear into the bushes on the wrong side of the river again. I was there within 10 minutes - I was in such a rush that I even forgot my phone - but could not find her. I called her and walked around and then later sat near where she disappeared until almost 5 a.m.
Still no Tidda, but this new sighting is very good news. She is well. She is remaining in the area. She is trying to get home. She still has her leash on.
I can refocus my strategies and am really, really hoping for a reunion in the near future!!
