I shot these Cooper’s (Accipiter cooperii) hawks with my 300 mm lens while sitting on the deck in my back yard! which explains the lack of song birds usually flocking to our bird feeders...
I guess this qualifies it as a BOS (Bird On a Stick) so Happy Cliché Saturday!
Wild rhododendrons cover the hillsides along Kelly's Run. Those in the wild bloom in early July, which is about a month later than those we see planted around our local neighborhoods. Although we'd hiked the trail several times before, we had never been there when the rhododendrons were blooming, so it was a treat to catch them at just the right time.
I'm not sure what kind of wildflower it is but it certainly stood out amongst the surrounding greenery!
Stay Safe and Healthy Everyone!
Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... Thanks to you all!
At the foot of the garden, I created a strip, only 18" wide but around 60' long running alongside a gravel footpath. I wanted this strip to be our contribution to rewilding.
I have left it uncut and unfed. Just allowing it to do whatever it wanted to. Today it is full of daisies, poppies and other wild flowers in amongst the grasses. Not to mention the increased visiting wildlife of bees, hoverflies, frogs, newts, beetles and birds darting in for bugs and besties. I will cut this strip back roughly in around twelve weeks and let it do it all again next year.
The wild begins where you least expect it, one step off your normal course

Looking for Spring again. Trees are starting to bud. I am afraid the cold weather will get them. This was taken almost 11 years ago at my friends house in Rock Hill SC The next owners of the property had no interest in keeping up the yard plants. Many plants died.
Wild Marjoram. (Origanum vulgare).
Wild Marjoram is actually the same aromatic herb as oregano which is used in Mediterranean cooking. Its small, pink flower clusters can be seen on chalk and limestone grasslands in summer.
It's a species of flowering plant in the mint family, Lamiaceae.

Wild Arum / arum maculatum. Pioneer Meadows, Derbyshire. 20/04/18.
A fresh Wild Arum plant, one of many in a rather damp, shaded area of woodland. This specimen had plenty of dark blotches on its leaves, making it very attractive. However, I noticed that the majority of plants in the area completely lacked these leaf markings.
Vantage, Washington on the Columbia River. These sculpted steel horses are so appealing and compelling as is their installation on a bluff overlooking the Columbia River I cannot resist them. Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies (also known as the Wild Horse Monument) is a public art sculpture created by David Govedare in 1989–1990 and situated near Vantage, Washington. It consists of 15 life-size steel horses which appear to be galloping across a ridge above the Columbia River.
Wild burros live in the hilly terrain along edges Riverside, Highland, Moreno Valley, Loma Linda, and Redlands in inland Southern California. Some say their ancestors had escaped miners back in 1800s.

I found this wild flower on the Fleet in Dorset this afternoon. It looks a bit like a cornflower. The macro lens has revealed the wonderful detail in this flower.
