This is one of the two Western Bluebird fledglings that hatched in my backyard this spring. He’s fluttering his wings while waiting for dad to arrive with a tasty morsel.
Western Bluebirds are small thrushes that usually perch upright. They are stocky with thin, straight bills and fairly short tails.
Male Western Bluebirds are shiny blue above with rust-orange extending from a vest on the breast onto the upper back. Females are gray-buff with a pale orange wash on the breast and blue tints to the wings and tail. The throat is blue in males and gray-buff in females, and the lower belly is whitish.
These birds are highly social, and usually feed in flocks during the non-breeding season. They hunt for terrestrial insects by dropping to the ground from a low perch. Western Bluebirds also frequently feed on berries in trees. Western Bluebirds rely on trees both for nesting cavities and hunting perches, and also perch on fences and utility lines.

I love modern dance and ballet. Whenever possible I go to watch it live. Last weekend one of the performances got under my (not so thin) skin that I can´t get it out of my head.....
This is the kind of perfection I love.
Love is a vampire
Energy of dead
Love is like a boomerang
Comin' back again
On a rack of red leather
On a rack of skin and sin
Tell me how to pale
In adrenaline
And you said to me,
"It could never be"
Say the hour of sea to seep
And you said to me,
"Have you said Godspeed?"
I could make it all
All the twisted sand and foam
I'll never, ever return
I could make it
Make it all
It has always been my wish to photograph the secretive Sora head-on showing its laterally compressed body, which allows it to slip and weave easily through dense vegetation. However, seeing the Sora in the open is notoriously difficult.
I was justifiably excited when I spotted this Sora walking cautiously along the path. And when it turned and looked straight into the lens for a brief instant, the angle, light and position were just right, as seen in this picture. Luck!
I am glad that I was ready and took advantage of that opportunity.

Thank you all very much for the visits and comments.
A Fox River Valley Railroad freight crosses the long bridge over thin ice atop Little Lake Butte des Morts at Menasha, Wisconsin, on a cold November 18, 1989. All three of FRVR’s EMD GP30s—Nos. 814, 815 and 820—along with GP35 No. 831, obviously all former Chicago & North Western locomotives, power the northbound train. Unfortunately, unless you want to walk or cycle across this bridge, this part of the C&NW line to Green Bay is abandoned onto the bridge and north, now called the “Friendship Trail.”
Pardosa is a large genus of wolf spiders, with more than 500 described species that are found in all regions of the world.
A Great Blue Heron, blending ungainliness and grace, breaks the ice on touchdown and at once imagines flight. We, wingless, wouldn’t conceive of this solution.

Here's the immane East Face of Monte Rosa, embraced by a thin blanket of clouds.
East Face is the highest alpine peak by prominence, and the only himalayan wall in the entire Alps.
This side consists of a 2,400-metre-high (7,900 ft) wall overlooking Macugnaga, whose snows feed the Belvedere Glacier at its base.

While visiting the wetlands in Delaware, we noticed a few gulls were pecking at the ice, to break through and get food. One did break though and get a crab. but he was quickly attacked by the other gulls for his food. View On Black

For Macro Mondays and Pick Two.
This week's Macro Mondays theme is to pick two, one from each list.
The colours:
Red
Blue
Yellow
Pink
The items:
Flower
Bottle Cap
Paper
Pen
...and combine them in a macro photo. This is a thin, cellophane-like, translucent paper that made folding difficult for me. All one hue, but the lights make it look like many.
About 4cm /1.5 inches across.
My husband prefers this one. He isn't keen on abstract or bokeh balls.
Thanks for looking.
Tread lightly.
Grand Prismatic Spring at Yellowstone. I'm not a fan of tourist hotspots, but I would definitely hit this place.
Terrific Thursday to you my friend.
This photograph was shot at the Largs Yacht Haven on the outskirts of Largs, North Ayrshire on the Firth of Clyde coast. It's been too long since I have been doing any night time photography so it was nice to go hunting for a few different locations to Glasgow which is where I was doing most of my previous night time work.
A clear sky afternoon at the beach always makes me look harder for something to catch my eye. Reflections of the cliffs are always an obvious favourite. These shallow pools on a smooth limestone surface only last a few hours as they dry out, They are Gossamer Thin by Conor Oberst.
Lately I've been preoccupied with life issues which have pulled me away from my creative side. Always amazes me just how quickly and fully reality rushes in to fill the vacuum left when creative pursuits are sidelined. It sometimes requires a very determined pushback to regain the balance of power. Tilting the playing field of my life away from the creative aspect to me is akin to sliding onto the thin ice part of the proverbial pond. Photography for me is not just a hobby but part of a lifestyle. It's one that sees me out exploring my world and separating myself, however briefly, from both convention and conventional thought. It's how I make sense of everything else. It's a very delicate balance. For now I'm just trying to avoid plunging into the black water that lies just below that veneer of ice.
