As I tested slower shutter speeds to see the rain’s effect, an immature White-crowned sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) landed and took off from the Joe Pye (Eutrochium purpureum) blooms.
I like to shoot action photos at 1/2000, at least, for clarity, and deal with ISO later if I can. This frame followed the one in the first comment by less than a second, I think.

Northern Red-shafted Flicker. View Large On Black According to the Audubon guide, "flickers are the only woodpeckers that frequently feed on the ground", probing with their beak, also sometimes catching insects in flight. Although they eat fruits, berries, seeds and nuts, their primary food is insects. Ants alone can make up 45% of their diet. They have a behavior called anting, during which they use the acid from the ants to assist in preening, as it is useful in keeping them free of parasites. IMG_1588

I think most people see sailboats and think of a relaxing endeavour, soaking up the sunshine as the soft winds blow, the vessels like immense swans gliding along the water blissfully.
Perhaps that’s actually the case for most folks out on their boats, however, my experience with sailing was quite different. I was only ever on a sailboat a handful of times but each of those were with Barnacle Bill. Bill (his real name) was my father and he bought a sailboat shortly after I was married so sailing wasn’t something with which I grew up. That meant I hadn’t been properly trained to be a sailor and neither had Norm.
Our first time out Dad issued the rules and we were more than willing to learn and abide. Yet as the outing progressed Bill’s barking grew more and more intense.
“Don’t sit there!”
“Grab that line!”
(What line? What do you want me to do with it?)
And so it went.
There seemed to be a very real possibility that we were going to be keelhauled or, at the very least, made to walk the plank. If you ever saw the ‘Friends’ episode where Rachel was trying to teach Joey how to sail you’ll have a clear idea of what I’m trying to describe.
I do know that his high anxiety was his concern for everyone’s safety and thus was quite forgivable but truth be told ever since those experiences I have been quite content to simply get the occasional photograph of a sailboat. :-)

I think this was a pine tree of sorts, but no idea what the narrow growth is, noticed a fair few with them
I think that I know most of the squirrels at Monrepos personally. This one is easily recognizable because of her bent and slightly dishevelled ear tuft which is probably the result of a fight. Squirrels may look cute but they are quite feisty little creatures.
I think this is a Queen Bee, my wife thinks it's a Bumblebee.

I think the conversation went something like this:
"Hey, can I have some?"
"Nah, get your own wings!"
The New Holland honeyeater was not about to share its catch!
This was a very quick grab through my lounge window taken from my computer desk chair.
Happy Wing Wednesday!

Trike Harley-Davidson. Of course I like more than the usual two-wheeled bikes, but we must also think about those who are already difficult to cope with such a technique. I remembered the movie "Sons of Anarchy": father - of red traveled on a three-wheeled bike. And our Putin, once came to the meeting with bikers in Sevastopol on this Trike Harley-Davidson.

even if the broth is still so dark and impenetrable, the good light still manages to be *reflected (even if only from a very thin surface) ... perhaps an encouragement for the present time ...
;-) ...
* "reflected", in German also stands for "to think about"...
selbst wenn die Brühe noch so dunkel und undurchdringlich ist, schafft es doch das gute Licht (wenn auch nur durch eine hauchdünne Oberfläche) hell reflektiert zu werden ... vielleicht eine Ermutigung für die heutige Zeit ...
