Captive bird at Muncaster Castle Hawk and Owl Centre.
A yellow-billed Kite.
Canon R with 70-200mm f/2.8L lens as I didnt have anything with longer reach with me.
Made a few mistakes - should have gone for shorter exposures (1/2000 as minimum) and probably should have switched off IS. Had a dreadfully slow memory card so buffered frequently which didnt help.
Probably should use a bit of exposure compensation as well!
But I'm getting there!
Until now, Ive mostly captured perched birds - I want to work at birds in flight. Hopefully, this is just the start!

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.” ~ Charles R. Swindoll
After our mall walk, we went home for Daisy to change shoes and then went to lunch. (Yeah, we should have brought them with us...) Afterward, we stopped at a couple of shoe stores and then popped by the ABC store to resupply our liquor shelf. Hmmm...I wonder if Daisy is trying to tell me something with her choice of whiskey? One for the old crow, perhaps? 😜

Behind Morgana is reflection on glass window (my father workshop) and she was standing so proud and ready to pose. I try to catch as much possible details of Morgana and make contrast behind blue sky reflection on window and her white fur coat.
Morgana is 10 weeks old cat…
Boerderijen, laantjes, weilanden, boomgaarden en een kerkje.
En dan dit gebouw, met deze opvallende gevel.
Boven de voordeur prijkt een paardekop — vermoedelijk een verwijzing naar de oorspronkelijke functie.
Het torent overal bovenuit. De torenspits van het kerkje is misschien net iets hoger, maar het gebouw trekt alle aandacht. Het kerkje valt er bijna bij in het niets.
Een architectonisch statement, midden in het stille dorp.
---------------
Location: Ressen, the Netherlands
Farms, country lanes, meadows, orchards — and a little village church.
And then this building, with its striking façade.
Above the entrance, a sculpted horse’s head — likely a clue to its original function.
It rises above everything around it. The church spire might be slightly taller, but this house commands all the attention. The church almost disappears in comparison.
A bold architectural statement in the heart of a quiet village.

I drove out southwest of town and past a lot of repaired flood destruction on Oxford Road west of Niwot past their cemetery. I caught this well west from the cemetery and Haystack, a pointy hill that always leaves me wondering. In this shot, NOAA Table Mountain is in the background with government experiment stations atop. I don't suppose any of the experiments trickled over the hill and wiped out this farm. This does not look like it happened overnight. This is certainly NFL - not for long. It looks like someone set up a slab of cottonwood trunk for axe throwing practice.
Although still in September and suffering August heat, I'd say summer grasses were done but the cottonwoods and shrubs are still green. It often seems agricultural has been sucked from this area. Fortunately, we can buy food from the Sam n' Ella's farm in Mexico. The area is learning how valuable water in the west really is but have yet to learn the true value of watered land and soil that doesn't need paving.
Strangely, we had a summer that was closer to normal, if high in humidity, but I don't think ignoring climate change or pumping petroleum will make rougher weather go away. This was a summer that was hotter than any on record. This August was hotter then any on record. This September was the hottest on record, all set world wide. perhaps you see a trend. That is at least until the looming petroleum wars are settled and the Koch Brothers and their political tea purchases are put away in their place. Until then CO2 levels in the atmosphere which are at an 850 million year high, will not be turned around. Actually, anti-fracking proposals passed in Colorado.

Earlier this summer at an LGBTQ pride event, I overheard a nearby conversation wherein a post-operative transgender individual (post-op TG), categorized by some folks as “trans-sexual” (TS), stated that crossdressers (CD’s) predominated the gender association of which she and I were both members . . . OUCH !
For the past decade, I have considered myself a non-op TG (not striving for sexual reassignment surgery – SRS), so I took special interest when hearing the implication that I, and my peers in the gender association, were merely crossdressers.
Clearly, a TS literally and figuratively has more “skin in the game” with regards to their gender crossing, especially when SRS – sometimes known as “bottom surgery”, facial feminization surgery, HRT (hormone replacement therapy), electrolysis hair removal and/or other medical procedures, such a breast removal for trans-men, are involved. So, it does not take too much imagination to see why a TS would set a high standard for defining who might be admitted into the sorority / fraternity of the transgender.
However, for such a small community, perhaps 0.2% (1 in 500) of the U.S. population, there is quite a bit of diversity amongst transgender individuals. The world got a peek at that TG diversity when we learned that Caitlyn Jenner did not submit to sexual reassignment surgery in order to fulfill her gender identity needs.
Listed below are some varied paths to gender identity I have observed within the TG community:
•TS – transsexual: has surgically crossed the sex divide as well as the crossed the gender divide;
•Post-op TG – same as transsexual, see above,
•Pre-op TG – awaiting SRS, usually on hormones and usually “full time” within identified gender,
•Non-op TG – Gender identification differs from that of sex at birth; not seeking SRS; may or may not be on hormones; may or may not be full-time in their identified gender,
•TV / CD – transvestite / crossdresser: identifies their gender the same as their sex at birth; at times presents themselves in a gender other than their sex at birth; not initially considered transgender, but may be in a “questioning” phase (the Q in LGBTQ) where they later determine that they are, in fact, transgender.
Based on these definitions, which are by no means set in stone, the primary distinguishing characteristic between a part-time Non-op TG and a CD is gender self-identification, a characteristic that is not readily apparent when you stand both individuals side-by-side for a photograph.
I have wondered if a “score card” methodology might aid in transgender self-evaluation, somewhat along the lines of responses to a certain number of statements suggesting one is transgender. So here it goes:
You think you may be transgender when . . .
1. Your sleep dreams place you in a gender other than your sex at birth,
2. Life seems flat when “dressed in drab”, presenting in the gender of your birth,
3. Most of your social life takes place in the gender other than your sex at birth,
4. You wish you had more opportunities to get out in your preferred gender,
5. Your sex partner identifies you and lusts for you as your transgender self,
6. People who know you encourage you to go full-time in the gender other than your sex at birth,
7. When presenting in the gender the same as your sex at birth, you feel like you have this whole other wonderful person inside you that is being denied the opportunity to live life to the fullest,
8. You have been “outed” at work or school and in your family as being transgender,
9. Even when not dressed in the gender of your choosing, your sensibilities and outlook culturally align with those of that gender other than your sex at birth,
10. If you could be a TS at the snap of a finger with no unintended consequences (such as surgical infection, complications from anesthesia, blood clots, increased cancer risk, hormonal imbalance, etc.) you would do it in a heartbeat,
11. (Bonus Question) – Your adult daughter says you talk, walk and look more femme than her mother!
Scoring:
5 to 10: Most definitely transgender,
3 to 4 : Most likely transgender,
1 to 2 : Likely in the questioning phase,
0 : Unlikely transgender at this moment.
So how did I score? I can truthfully answer in the affirmative to all of the statements, including the bonus question! So, do you think I am a TG or a CD???

My third Statement Dress is this skintight lycra LBD. I hope you like it! It really hugs my body tight, and would feel very snug to wear while gathering around the Christmas Tree for something bubbly to drink! It also seems to have been designed especially to be worn with my favourite chrome-heeled five-inch black patent Pleasers!
Lots more to come soon, but bye bye for now!
Sweet kisses under the mistletoe for all my lovely friends!

In this photo Margaret C was on a mission. We all need to be on a mission from time to time. With her athleticism she mounted on the 5 ft high cement obstacle with the US Capitol behind her, she turned to look at it, looked back at me and seemed exhilarated. I proposed a rare posed shot, envisioning her representing strength, determination, and the ability to surmount any obstacle. Well, she took if from there and struck the pose and I took the shot. You can surmount your obstacles whatever they may be. Sometimes you have to make a statement! Washington DC, 1 October 2017.
