Happy Wing Wednesday
This incredible super mummy and Sumatran Tiger is called Kirana. I'm sure those photographers who were regulars at Chester Zoo will know her fondly because she is a natural at posing. I rest my case!!
Kirana is now enjoying retirement at the Big Cat Sanctuary, Kent. She clearly enjoys attention though, even on a hot afternoon and from what I observed yesterday, has settled in really well.

Thanks for your views and comments and have a great weekend!
Limpkin taken at Circle B Bar Reserve in Lakeland, Florida in May 2019.
This wasn't our first visit to the reserve but it was our first walk along the Alligator Alley Trail which had previously been closed due to damage caused by Hurricane Irma in Sept 2017. It was also great to catch up with our friends Mark and Linda Schocken again.

Striated Fieldwren (Calamanthus fuliginosus)
Images today are from a visit to Truganina Park on this day in 2019.
As I wandered along the southern bank of Laverton I met Flickr mate and fellow birder Rodger www.flickr.com/photos/62434662@N05 with a couple of other birders who were on a Birdlife walk in the area. They told me they had heard a Fieldwren further along. Sure enough as walked I heard the call and was happy to see it pop up unto this branch and stay long enough for a couple of shots.

Vogue (vogue, vogue)
Vogue (vogue, vogue)
Look around, everywhere you turn is heartache
It's everywhere that you go (look around)
You try everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know (life that you know)
When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away
It's called a dance floor
And here's what it's for, so
Come on, vogue (vogue)
Let your body move to the music (move to the music)
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, vogue (vogue)
Let your body go with the flow (go with the flow)
You know you can do it
All you need is your own imagination
So use it, that's what it's for (that's what it's for)
Go inside for your finest inspiration
Your dreams will open the door (open up the door)
It makes no difference if you're black or white
If you're a boy or a girl
If the music's pumping it will give you new life
You're a superstar
Yes, that's what you are, you know it
Come on, vogue (vogue)
Let your body groove to the music (groove to the music)
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, vogue (vogue, vogue)
Let your body go with the flow (go with the flow)
You know you can do it
The flower these insects chose as a stopping place was less than two inches in diameter. At first glance, I thought the green bits on top of the flower were little bits of leaves. Upon further examination, I discovered they were insects. A quick dash up the stairs of my house allowed me to grab my camera, all the while whispering the mantra...'Don't move, don't move!' Imagine my surprise when I returned to find them still posing for me. Less than two minutes later, they hopped away. Whew!
Get the Hell off my lawn.

Portrait of a stunning Beaded Gecko (Lucasium damaeum) encountered active on an arid sandplain within the spectacular mallee country straddling the Vic/SA border in southern oz.
Looks like our reservoir is now frozen over. However, it is still a place that delivers marvellous opportunities for terrific compositions. This time in black & white.
