Skylark - Alauda Arvensis
Skylarks are characteristic of semi-natural grassland systems from sand dunes through heathland to marginal upland, but are most common in arable farmland, making use of the nesting cover and bare ground for feeding that crops themselves provide throughout the year. Males are highly territorial, using long song flights at high altitude to broadcast to rivals and potential mates because the open landscapes they prefer are devoid of high perches. The stamina required to sustain long song flights has led to song flight length being used as an “honest signal” of male quality by females, allowing male Skylarks to advertise themselves without bright plumage, so they have kept the cryptic, brown and streaked coloration that affords them protection from predators on the ground.
Although migratory in much of northern Europe, British breeding Skylarks are believed not to move far between seasons, although upland birds move to lower latitudes. They can then often begin to breed in March and continue into July, making up to three breeding attempts. In winter, they mostly use crop stubble and fallow fields, in which they forage for weed seed and spilled grain, often in large flocks. Throughout the year, the Skylark’s heritage as a steppe species is apparent in its avoidance of vertical structures, which restricts the suitability of farmland with a high density of hedgerows.

... returns home with outstanding photographs of the even more outstanding Icelandic nature.
That morning was so incredibly cold that most of the time I was blinded by tears behind goggles and could not breathe behind the scarf wrapped around my face and yet, we had to stay and get these shots seeing that these two guys were braving the weather and getting incredible images of that storm having the surf throwing back all those ice floes onto the black volcanic beach.
Getting close to sunset and surfers were still out there. Got to admire their stamina. Seen on a sunset walk above St Kilda Beach, Dunedin. Have a good weekend.

Welcome to the Looney Bin! One male in hot pursuit of another. In all my years of Common Loon watching I have never witnessed this behaviour. Usually when loons have a turf war they do it under water and come up for a powerful wing smack. They just flapped above the water right past me and continued on down the whole length of the lake while the female watched from the sidelines. I'm not even sure why the loon being chased didn't fly away. I admired their stamina from my kayak, It had to be exhausting. Even though the wind wouldn't die down It was so good to see my loon pair again and take time from my many jobs.

Since Merlin lost his spleen, it´s been a tough time for him to gain back strength and stamina...
He´s such a fighter!
To see him running back and forth while ascending these beautiful Austrian mountains is priceless.
To watch him happy, but almost falling asleep, crushing the summit (in this case of Mount Rinsennock 2334m/Carinthia) really touches our hearts <3
Have a lovely loving evening, stay safe and enjoy youtu.be/drsMyeXzLSo , dear flickr friends =)))
As I was taking pictures of our tulips recently, I struggled with finding an interesting background. Hence, I've tried other compositions like this one, where I like the softness of the petals which is a result of focusing onto the stamina. I hope you like it and I wish everyone a great Sunday!
You can accomplish by kindness what you cannot by force. Pubilius Syrus
Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.
John Ruskin
Kindness is like snow- It beautifies everything it covers. Kahlil Gibran
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you most kindly for stopping by to view my work.
If you find you have a few words to say about what I have done they will be much appreciated.
My best regards to you.... Martin
Bald Cypress trees can live to be over 600 years old.
The Atchafalaya Basin in South Louisiana contains a multitude of these who've weathered & withstood countless and treacherous hurricanes over the years......
The fact that this gnarly old Bald Cypress still stands bare, all alone, and without protection surely reveals its tenacity, stamina & endurance......
No doubt it’s seen many, many moons pass over…..like the waning crescent in the background. Hopefully it’ll see decades more…..
Thank Y'all for the continued visits and wonderful comments.....
Such a pleasure to hear from so many wonderful & talented folks both near and afar.
I hope your Sunday is as blessed as mine was that day.

This shot really did tax my stamina. I had to slog my way all of about 400m from the front door of the hotel weighed down by a hearty breakfast to grab this shot. Just a case of picking some foreground and positioning the trees then waiting. Initially the Buckle was in solid shade but then the sun rose enough to start blasting through some gaps and travel across the landscape. I took a number of shots but picked this one for the position of the light and the clear peak.

The white-tailed eagles (Haliaeetus albicilla, rétisas) have always been on my photography wish list. It's impossible to take photos of these beautiful birds of prey without a professional hide. We chose a Hungarian company who have a huge experience in operating hides in the Great Plains of Hungary and CEE. We have made a pre-booking for 28-DEC long months ago.
Typically winter is the eagle season...and the hides are extremely popular among local and foreign birders, so booking should be arranged in early autumn the latest.
Need to highlight that this type of photography requires some stamina and dedication. It starts with a 3.30 a.m. wake up and a 200 km drive to arrive at the meeting point on time. The hide operators carry you with off-road vehicle to the hide in the dark, located in the territory of a national park. You can take photos for ~9 hrs in modest conditions (surely not a comfort of your home!), then you are picked up at dusk. It's strictly forbidden to leave the hide...the eagles are very precautious, they must not see any human movement.
Considering the pre-booking, weather is like gambling..and we did not hit a jackpot. The sun-lit and snow-covered plains were ideal but it was hopeless. No snow for 4 weeks..and we had to make a compromise with a cloudy, very windy weather with adverse light conditions. The mild NOV and DEC temperatures were also a disadvantage because the eagles were not forced to forage intensively..they did not even eat all the fish placed in front of the hide...while in a tough winter they fight for every bit of food.
Anyway, it was still a great day!
