Vulnerable

This bridge was fortified in the 1940's; underneath if you go down to the river bank you can see where the lookout posts were. This is at the top of the Cuckmere Valley, near Alfriston, Sussex, UK. It was a concern that this area was vulnerable to invasion. I always feel a sense of loneliness at this bridge. Somehow forlorn. Waiting. Some sweethearts did not come home.

So often, when we feel lost, adrift in our lives, our first instinct is to look out into the distance for the nearest shore. But that shore, that solid ground, is within us.

The anchor we are searching for is connection, and it is internal!

There is no shame in being vulnerable. ~ ❤

Sometime when you're not feeling yourself you wish that you can go to sleep so time will fly by and you wake to sunshine and a brand new day!!

On the morning of June 10, the animal care team released 14 live bass into the polar bear's main pool and a bear party followed. All three were in the wagter and all were successful in making multiple catches.

 

This was the final release of fish (6 of 6) funded by the 2018 Ocelots Grants Program Awards. It's been fabulous enrichments for the bears and for those of us who enjoy watching them.

 

This is 24 year old Chinook (Ursus maritimus) preparing to eat another of her catches. She often uses her large paws as a plate.

 

Conservation status: Vulnerable

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”

― Brené Brown

"Addison" an 8 year old cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) and one of her six cubs born on November 21, 2015. This is the largest litter ever delivered at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park's Cheetah Breeding Center. Four cubs are female and two are male.

 

The San Diego Zoo Safari Park is one of nine facilities in the Cheetah Breeding Center coalition. There are only 10,000 cheetahs left (with 10% in captive programs). Conservation Status: Vulnerable

For me, it can be tough to keep my heart open without frequent tears.

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up.”

The Lion is my choice to represent an animal that is endangered. Taken in 2014

 

Lions are classed as vulnerable on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List – but some African populations are classed as critically endangered, alongside the endangered Asiatic lion. How much lion populations have decreased since the late 1990s. As few as 20,000 lions remain in Africa today.

Taken in Daintree river in Far North Queensland. A young saltwater crocodile (“Crocodylus porous”) in the wild, sunning itself on a log in the Daintree rainforest in Far North Queensland. This one was about 15 inches long and still very vulnerable to other predators.

 

Not sure if its male or female. The males can grow to 8-10 metres and the females 2.5 - 3m. The sex of the baby croc is determined by water temperature.

 

The saltwater crocodile is the largest living reptile species of all.. They live for 70-100 years!

They are popping up everywhere in the forest now. One of the many reasons I love autumn.

A long way is the sum of many steps ...

 

(my feet / bw series)

 

Rusty edges to feathers and pale eyebrow in winter contrast with blackish feather bases. Breeding males are glossy black. Shorter tail than Common Grackle. Thinner bill than Red-winged Blackbird. Found in wooded swamps. Often in flocks; frequently mixes with Red-winged Blackbirds and Common Grackle in winter. Look for flocks perched at tops of trees bordering marshes and listen for their calls to help pick them out from large flocks of blackbirds.

So... this answers the age-old question "what's the last thing a rabbit sees?"

 

On a different note, if you're familiar with Sam the Eagle (The Muppets) then I think we know who was the inspiration for the character.
