Erdhummel - Buff-tailed Bumblebee

Wegen nicht behebbarer Probleme mit meinem Account (ich erhalte keine Email-Nachrichten mehr) ziehe ich bald um. In Zukunft findest Du meine Bilder über die Personensuche unter “Manni.Aigner”. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn wir in Kontakt blieben.

Schöne Grüße

Manfred

Because of not remediable problems with my account I’m moving soon. In future you can find my photos by using the people finder tool for “Manni.Aigner”. I would be happy, if we stayed in contact.

Best Regards

A fairly close encounter with a Black-tailed Godwit in breeding plumage on a patch of grass next to the salt-water lagoon at Rosscarbery, County Cork.

Photographed in Kittitas County near Ellensburg, Washington. One of half dozen or more Red-tailed Hawks that flew just before I was able to take a photo. Not as sharp as I would like but nice pose. IMG_2083

Thank you everyone for views, comments, invites, awards, and faves.

Buteo jamaicensis

Taken right off the parking lot at the boat launch. This one let me walk across the field and right up to it. Just a square crop, but pretty much filled the frame.

Aglaiocercus kingi (Long-tailed Sylph / Cometa verdiazul)

Sylphs (Aglaiocercus) are short-billed, long-tailed hummingbirds of humid montane forests of the Andes. The Long-tailed Sylph is the most widespread member of the genus, and occurs from Venezuela south to Bolivia.

This is the only species of sylph on the east slopes of the Andes. In Colombia and Ecuador, it also is found on the western slopes of the Andes. This species forages at all heights in the forest, and at forest edge.

It was great to spend time photographing these magnificent birds on a recent trip to the Hortobágy region of Hungary.

Many thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.

Wikipedia: The large-tailed nightjar (Caprimulgus macrurus) is a species of nightjar in the family Caprimulgidae. It is found along the southern Himalayan foothills, eastern South Asia, Southeast Asia and northern Australia. This species is a resident of the countries of Australia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brunei, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical mangrove forest, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. In Malaysia it is known to frequent cemeteries at night, hence its rather macabre common name burung tukang kubur ("graveyard nightjar")

My social distancing continues. One of my friends commented: "Mike, you've always maintained social distancing!" Maybe there's a bit of truth to that? On topic: My project to do a gallery of my trip to the Falklands continues. Here's one that I put a great deal of work in removing branches behind this Long-tailed Meadowlark as it dove off a brambly bush near one of the lodges in the Falklands.

Stay safe, we're making progress.
