Great Gray Owl fledgling

Chopta - Uttarakhand - India

The Spot-flanked Gallinule is a tiny, distinctive gallinule, with four disjunct populations in South America: it occurs around the pantanal, ibera, and entre rios wetlands northeast Argentina and nearby Bolivia, Paraguay, and Brazil; extreme eastern Brazil, central Chile, and central Colombia. This species frequents lagoons and marshes. Its small size and cryptic coloration make it especially difficult to see when it is hiding in the reeds, though it will venture into open water regularly. The Spot-flanked Gallinule has a slate-colored head, neck, and underparts, with white spots on the flanks, and a warm brownish-red back and wings. Photographed at Mostardas, RS.

Here in Michigan the weather can change quickly, wanted to grab a few autumn/fall photos before the rain moves in.

Have a great weekend!!! 😊​

I was amazed to see how close this gull was to the crashing waves. It does give perspective to the waves size and the gull was definitely in the shot as taken😊

There are many wonderful spots to enjoy a sunrise or sunset on Windsor, Ontario’s riverfront. One continuous park stretches for 5 kilometres along the shore of the southeast side of the Detroit River, including this great walkway that juts several metres out into the river.

A Nine-spot Ladybird, still to be identified, seen at Agaete on the north west coast of Gran Canaria in the Canary Islands.

There are about 5,000 different species of ladybirds in the world. These much loved critters are also known as lady beetles or ladybugs, and in many cultures they’re considered good luck.

I had my first encounter of the summer with a fawn. We stood and stared at each other in the dark woods for quite some time and then a bit of sun came through the canopy and lit up the young one. Mom was close by munching on foliage, but showed no signs of distress as her baby and I got to know each other.

Piranga rubra

(Summer tanager / Piranga abejera)

The only completely red bird in North America, the strawberry-colored male Summer Tanager is an eye-catching sight against the green leaves of the forest canopy. The mustard-yellow female is harder to spot, though both sexes have a very distinctive chuckling call note. Fairly common during the summer, these birds migrate as far as the middle of South America each winter.

Beautiful scenes like this are all around the Great Salt Lake, but finding and reaching them take a lot of effort. This shot is 22 miles (34km) from a paved road.

The Great Salt Lake - GPS is not the exact spot of the shot.

No comments today – just enjoy :-)

Experimenting with watercolor pencils was initially challenging. Then everything seemed to come together. Perseverance is the key.

This was the first time I had seen and heard a Cheetah in real life-albeit at the zoo, and it was both mesmerising (the beauty) and surprising (the teeny tiny meow to come out of such a big cat!!).
