A captivating bird, this young Ruddy Duck is quite tolerant to people and allows for close encounters.

Thank you all very much for the visits and comments
Usually in winter, I photograph birds outside, but the kowhai tree flowering last spring was incredible... and the best view is from inside, where it's elevated and I can photograph straight into the tree. So I spent some time photographing through double glazing! Not my favourite glass... but... the glimpse into birdworld was too strong to resist :-)
Silvereyes are very communal birds, often visiting in small family groups and pairs. Some preening pairs are family, some couples, and some just dating ;-) If one preens too roughly the moment is soon over!
I glimpsed this pair through my lcd quite far back in the tree... I didn't see them at all with my bare eyes. They were there maybe only a minute, but seeing minutes like these makes a lot of happiness :-)
Here's to the world beyond the window...
and to moments of joy 🌼
whether quiet or aloud
my thanks for being here
on the other side of the glass!! :-)
Calm moments on the hills of the Wiehengebirge near the Kaiser Wilhelm Monument, Porta Westfalica, Ostwestfalen, Germany

The road to Vatnajökull. It takes up 15% of Iceland so you can't really miss it, especially on a clear day like this one.
I have been privileged to have a family of Sulphur Crested Cockatoo's hang around my house for a few days. South Australia.
I really thought the snow was going to last longer than it did. So I have quite a few to still post or i guess i can save them for next December....
Happy Fence Friday
A title with more than one meaning. The history of the Clinchfield makes it the most "modern" route in American Railroading. The C&O between Russell and Elkhorn City, KY already existed, and at the turn of the Century entities laid out plans to make a hyper efficient route to the Southeast. No such route existed.
The story of the Pikeville cut also continues with the theme of straight shootin'. I believe the Chessie along with the Commonwealth of Kentucky planned to bypass downtown Pikeville in the 70s. The subsequent route is pictured here with US 23 and the Levisa Fork also jammed in there. M693 is moments away from yarding at Shelby. A new crew will come on board later during the night. A soppy one at that...
The third in the series of impending rain reflections. the sun had left the scene not to reappear , yet I was still mesmerised by the beautiful greys and blues that somehow always light up the rainclouds. Straight to you is by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds , and it was only a minute or so from getting very wet. I need some new waterproof trousers :)))

Straight on, symmetrical, square-framed, a few feet above and looking down on the swimming goose.
This goose, along with its extended family, has overwintered here this year. They sure are hardy birds.
A warm thank you to all who view or comment on my images :) It's a joy to be a part of the Flickr community.
