Black-vented Shearwater is common off the Baja coast but they are usually fast and distant, so getting a photograph isn't easy. I wanted to upload this one because it shows the black vent (the bit between the legs and the tail). 95% of the world population of Black-vented Shearwater nests on a single island off Baja; Isla Natividad, though a few pairs nest on Guadalupe and San Benitos (which we visited). But like Manx Shearwater they only visit their nesting burrows under cover of darkness. Its scientific name Puffinus opisthomelas simply translates as shearwater with a black behind.
I just loved the K on Vents's sketch. Sharp like a boxcutter!
It was a good learning experience as I got to experience the subtleties that go into the making of a style like this.
Done with Rustos and Krylons for the fill as I just had bought up a small lot for cheap.
The red-vented bulbul (Pycnonotus cafer) is a member of the bulbul family of passerines. It is resident breeder across the Indian subcontinent, including Sri Lanka extending east to Burma and parts of Tibet. It has been introduced in many other parts of the world and has established itself in the wild on several Pacific islands including Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, and Hawaii. It has also established itself in parts of Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, the United States, Argentina and New Zealand. It is included in the list of the world's 100 worst invasive alien species.
..."si no es preveu una entrada de vent del nord (tramuntana), el millor és fer els preparatius de sortida ben ràpidament i sortir el mateix dia de l’embarcament.
Si, en canvi, hi ha tramuntana, cal tenir en compte que aquest vent es va enfortint a mesura que es remunta la costa.
Amb tramuntana hi ha dos llocs claus de pas.
El primer és el Cap de Begur a partir del qual la tramuntana es fa bastant més forta.
El segon és el Cap de Creus, que pot resultar infranquejable ja que en aquest indret el vent, la mar i el corrent són normalment molt forts en condicions de vent del nord..."

Wind gust.
If, on the other hand, there is a northerly wind, it must be borne in mind that this wind is getting stronger as the coast rises.
With Tramuntana there are two key places of passage.
The first is Cap de Begur from which the north wind becomes much stronger.
The second is Cap de Creus, which can be insurmountable because in this place the wind, the sea and the current are usually very strong in northerly wind conditions ... "

It's not a good photo... but it's the only one I have of this species.
Species # 1133
Datanla Waterfall - Vietnam
Medium-sized hummingbird, male mostly green with turquoise tones. Female green above and gray below. On both sexes, note contrasting white undertail coverts to distinguish from other hummingbirds. Most similar to Bronze-tailed Plumeleteer, but tail dark blue-black, not bronzy. Usually seen singly at flowers in forest, edges, or shrubby second growth.
This image was photographed in Ecuador guided by Neotropic Photo Tours.
Every time it gets really cold (today it was 11 F for a high) I start missing the tropics. Right now I miss shooting hummingbirds. Here are some favorites from my April 2023 trip to Peru.
Seen on a photo tour in Northern Peru led by Juan Carlos Vindas of Neotropic Photo Tours and our Peruvian guide Steve Sánchez Wildlife Photography.
