This bird has two distinctive subspecies: T. m. maximus which lives on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the North and South America. The royal tern has a red-orange bill and a black cap during the breeding season, but in the winter the cap becomes patchy. The royal tern is found in Europe, the Americas, and the Caribbean islands. The royal tern lives on the coast and is only found near salt water. They tend to feed near the shore, close to the beach or in backwater bays. The royal tern's conservation status is listed as of least concern.
Brown Bear (ursus arctos) named "Scout" watching ravens flying above his yard.

Evening Grosbeak has a Conservation Status under the IUCN of Vulnerable www.iucnredlist.org/species/22720702/131500502
Evening Grosbeak is a member of the Finches family (Fringillidae), and not as one might expect the Cardinals, Grosbeaks, and relatives (Cardinalidae). Such are the vagaries of common names. This species certainly has a heavy bill, typical of a seedeater. Males, as in this image, have a bright yellow superciliary (‘eyebrow’) and other yellowish highlights; females and juveniles are greyish. Some authorities now place this species in the genus Hesperiphona. This individual was seen in the Weaselhead Natural Area in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, in wintertime — Evening Grosbeak is a year-round resident of southern Canada and the western USA, with some birds spending the colder months in central and eastern USA.
Meerkats (Suricata suricatta) snuggling together on a cool morning. These extremely social animals live together in burrows, which they dig with their long, sharp claws. Living underground keeps mob members safe from predators and out of the harsh African heat.

Snowy Owl has a Conservation Status under the IUCN of Vulnerable www.iucnredlist.org/species/22689055/205475036
This first year female Snowy Owl was unconcerned at my presence, though I wasn’t standing out in the open nor was I using using a short lens to get this photo. Rather, I was inside my vehicle and deploying an 800 mm lens, so this bird was not as close as it might seem [the image is also cropped]. Although it was buzzed by a Common Raven at one point, this majestic bird definitely exuded an aura of not being too worried about any threats.

"Habari" herd sire giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
A dramatic drop in giraffe populations caused by habitat loss, poaching, and civil unrest has caused these iconic African animals to be reclassified from least concern to vulnerable to extinction. The loss, mostly unreported, is being called a "silent extinction"

One of a coalition of five male cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus), sometimes called the 5 Musketeers or the Fast Five, that have been together since the Fall of 2016.

Located on the border between Embu das Artes and Cotia, the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima is an impressive neo-Gothic temple under the care of the Heralds of the Gospel. Its construction began in 2004 and it was elevated to the status of a Minor Basilica by the Holy See in 2014. One of its great distinctions is that this masterpiece was sponsored by descendants of the Brazilian Imperial Family, adding a touch of nobility and history to the site. Furthermore, its bells come from the renowned French foundry Fonderie Paccard, the first of their kind to be installed in Brazil. A setting of faith and royalty that provided me with these unforgettable snapshots.
Localizada na divisa entre Embu das Artes e Cotia, a Basílica de Nossa Senhora do Rosário de Fátima é um impressionante templo em estilo neogótico sob os cuidados dos Arautos do Evangelho. Sua construção começou em 2004 e foi elevada à condição de Basílica Menor pela Santa Sé em 2014. Um dos seus grandes diferenciais é que esta obra de arte foi patrocinada por descendentes da Família Imperial Brasileira, adicionando um toque de nobreza e história ao local. Além disso, seus sinos são da renomada fundição francesa Fonderie Paccard, os primeiros a serem instalados no Brasil. Um cenário de fé e realeza que me proporcionou esses cliques inesquecíveis.

Sa construction a débuté en 2004 et elle a été élevée au rang de Basilique mineure par le Saint-Siège en 2014. L'une de ses grandes particularités est que ce chef-d'œuvre a été sponsorisé par des descendants de la Famille Impériale Brésilienne, ajoutant une touche de noblesse et d'histoire au lieu. De plus, ses cloches proviennent de la célèbre fonderie française Fonderie Paccard, les premières à être installées au Brésil. Un décor de foi et de royauté qui m'a offert ces clichés inoubliables.

Situata al confine tra Embu das Artes e Cotia, la Basilica di Nostra Signora del Rosario di Fatima è un imponente tempio in stile neogotico affidato alle cure degli Araldi del Vangelo. La sua costruzione iniziò nel 2004 e fu elevata alla dignità di Basilica minore dalla Santa Sede nel 2014. Uno dei suoi grandi punti di forza è che questo capolavoro è stato patrocinato da discendenti della Famiglia Imperiale Brasiliana, aggiungendo un tocco di nobiltà e storia al luogo. Inoltre, le sue campane provengono dalla rinomata fonderia francese Fonderie Paccard, le prime del genere ad essere installate in Brasile. Uno scenario di fede e regalità che mi ha regalato questi scatti indimenticabili.
An der Grenze zwischen Embu das Artes und Cotia gelegen, ist die Basilika Unserer Lieben Frau vom Rosenkranz von Fatima ein beeindruckendes neugotisches Gotteshaus unter der Obhut der Herolde des Evangeliums. Der Bau begann im Jahr 2004 und wurde 2014 vom Heiligen Stuhl zur Kleinen Basilika erhoben. Eine ihrer großen Besonderheiten ist, dass dieses Meisterwerk von Nachkommen der Kaiserlichen Familie Brasiliens gefördert wurde, was dem Ort einen Hauch von Adel und Geschichte verleiht. Darüber hinaus stammen ihre Glocken aus der renommierten französischen Gießerei Fonderie Paccard, den ersten, die in Brasilien installiert wurden. Eine Kulisse aus Glaube und Königtum, die mir diese unvergesslichen Schnappschüsse bescherte.
Gelegen op de grens tussen Embu das Artes en Cotia, is de Basiliek van Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van de Rozenkrans van Fatima een indrukwekkende neogotische tempel onder de hoede van de Herauten van het Evangelie. De bouw begon in 2004 en werd in 2014 door de Heilige Stoel verheven tot de status van Kleine Basiliek. Een van zijn grote bijzonderheden is dat dit meesterwerk werd gesponsord door afstammelingen van de Braziliaanse Keizerlijke Familie, wat een vleugje adel en geschiedenis aan de plek toevoegt. Bovendien komen de klokken van de gerenommeerde Franse klokkengieterij Fonderie Paccard, de eerste die in Brazilië werden geïnstalleerd. Een decor van geloof en koningschap dat mij deze onvergetelijke kiekjes opleverde.
エンブー・ダス・アルテスとコチアの境界に位置するファティマのロザリオの聖母聖堂は、福音の使者会が管理する印象的なネオゴシック様式の教会です。建設は2004年に始まり、2014年に聖座によって小バシリカに指定されました。この芸術作品がブラジル帝室の子孫によって支援されたことは、この地に気高さと歴史の一筆を加える、大きな特徴の一つです。さらに、その鐘はブラジルで初めて設置された、有名なフランスのパカール鋳造所製です。信仰と王権の情景が、私にこれらの忘れられない一枚をもたらしました。
تقع بازيليكا سيدة روزاريو فاطيما على الحدود بين إمبو داس أرتيس وكوتيا، وهي معبد مثير للإعجاب على الطراز القوطي الجديد تحت رعاية مبشري الإنجيل. بدأ بناؤها في عام 2004 وتم رفعها إلى مرتبة الكنيسة الصغرى من قبل الكرسي الرسولي في عام 2014. من أهم ما يميزها هو أن هذه التحفة الفنية قد تمت برعاية أحفاد العائلة الإمبراطورية البرازيلية، مما يضفي لمسة من النبلاء والتاريخ على المكان. علاوة على ذلك، فإن أجراسها من إنتاج مسابك فوندري باكار الفرنسية الشهيرة، وهي الأولى من نوعها التي يتم تركيبها في البرازيل. مشهد من الإيمان والملكية أتاح لي هذه اللقطات التي لا تنسى.
这座令人印象深刻的哥特复兴式圣殿位于恩布达斯阿尔特斯和科蒂亚的交界处，由福音传播会管理。它就是法蒂玛玫瑰经圣母大殿。其建设始于2004年，并于2014年被圣座升格为次级圣殿。它的一大独特之处在于，这件建筑杰作是由巴西皇室的后裔赞助的，为这个地方增添了一份高贵与历史的色彩。此外，其钟声来自著名的法国帕卡德铸造厂，这是该厂在巴西安装的第一批大钟。这个融合了信仰与皇室气息的场景，让我捕捉到了这些难忘的画面。
