The survival of this lonely juniper pine on the ledge above Canyonlands National Park is a struggle in this harsh environment.
As always, thanks so much for taking a look.

Oryx antelopes are perfectly adjusted to desert climate.
They can take a body temperatures up to 45° celsius through a well thought out plexus on the carotid artery.
They are also able to stay days without water using somehow the moisture of the few plants they eat.

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but rather the one most adaptable to change.

Caught the Wild Thing ready to strike at something behind that tree. This is a feral cat so it's basically both predator and prey trying to survive where the wild things live.

Every single day we as humans find so many reasons to complain about our lives, yet there are still so many beings around the world, humans or not that are living every single day of their lives on the edge of survival having only the fear, the cold and the hunger to keep them company and the pity of others to alleviate their pain.

Hey y'all. It's been awhile for me on Flickr these days. Just like this tree I've been hit with some health issues. I'm thankful for all of you and look forward to seeing your amazing images.

Northern Pig-tailed Macaque / সিংহ বানর / কুলু বানর
-
The Northern Pig-tailed Macaque is an endangered species, listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. I photographed them in a reserve forest in Bangladesh last December. I was waiting to photograph a few species of birds near a waterbody and found them as they came to drink. This unusual pose of these two macaques drinking water while hanging upside down looks interesting. It seems like they are telling us that their fate of survival is hanging on a narrow line like that fragile branch that they are hanging on. Are we getting the message they are conveying?

Now, normally I am a fan of beautiful natural images of birds in their natural habitat. This image to me represents the grit of survival. A female or juv Snowy on a pier with the Hamilton steelworks in the distant background. This environment is the farthest thing from the artic tundra and yet, here they are, surviving.
Only lonely foxglove, surviving and thriving through the slate.

If you admire stories of unlikely survival like I do, the history of the Abraham Crijnssen is fascinating, and also an example of the ingenuity which is common throughout Dutch history. This ship, like the other ships of the Dutch East Indies surface fleet that attempted to defend Java in February 1942, should be at the bottom of the Java Sea right now, except for the crafty if unconventional ingenuity of its captain -- who took the game of Dress Up to a whole new level...
The Battle of the Java Sea was a horrific disaster for the Allies, who lost 10 major ships and 2300 sailors. The Imperial Japanese Navy only lost 36 sailors, no ships. In the aftermath and fall of Java, the Abraham Crijnssen was ordered to retreat to Australia, a perilous week-long trip which would leave the ship, which was slow and lacked modern air defenses, an easy target for air strikes. Imperial Navy aircraft had already sunk many Allied ships at the time. Entrusted with the lives of 10 officers, 48 sailors and a female nurse, the captain knew that to simply sail out into the open toward Australia was a death sentence. So he came up with a wild but clever plan: an island is an island is an island...and the Java Sea around Malaysia and Indonesia has well over 18,000 of them. Why not look like one?
He sailed immediately for the nearest island, had his crew cut down as much foliage as possible, and then proceeded to cover the entire surface area of the 184 foot long ship with foliage. What metal the crew couldn't conceal, they painted to look like rocks. Then, they sat...until night. Knowing that the Abraham Crijnssen would leave a visible wake, the captain could only sail her at night. During daylight, the ship was parked close in to "other" larger islands, immobile. This must have been incredibly nerve-wracking, especially as aircraft were heard overhead. Yet in spite of how crazy this sounds, the Abraham Crijnssen pulled safely into Fremantle, Australia eight days later, the only Dutch ship of her class to survive the invasion. Don't believe me? See for yourself:

The ship behind the Crijnssen, the HNLMS Schorpioen, an armored ram from the 1860s, is only interesting from its unique survival from the scrapyard, a relic of the age between sail and steam.
While visiting a wonderful friend in Den Helder, he took me to see the Abraham Crijnssen and the interesting Dutch Navy Museum. Thank you for the visit Ralph!

so she forced herself to turn and walk away from him even though every part of her wanted to stay ..
……As the UK currently fries in 30+°C this weeks Macro Mondays theme of “Sun Safety” is very apt! Other parts of the World have or have had worse I’m sure but ONE thing that is common throughout the World and applies to everyone (not forgetting the Animals & Plants) and that is WATER!!! this solitary thing will ensure survival!! So in my book this is Number One in any (every) Sun Safety Survival kit. HMM and keep slurping folks to stay safe in the sun. Alan:-)…….
