Here is another shot of the Wood Warbler I found this week. I managed to catch it briefly in the sunshine which shows off its primrose throat and silky white breast. Wood Warbler was separated from Willow Warbler by Gilbert White in 1768. In a letter to Thomas Pennant he described how by listening to their songs, he had found there are three species of Willow-Wren. He called Wood Warbler the Large Shivering Willow Wren. This perfectly describes the trilling song which culminates with the bird vigorously shivering its body. Here is a recording of the trilling song of this very bird by my friend David Pennington: xeno-canto.org/799672 Towards the end you also hear it give the very different teu-teu-teu-teu call. Its scientific name is Phylloscopus sibilatrix; Phylloscopus means leaf-gleaner, while sibilatrix is a whistler, from the song.

Alien birth - Xenos vesparum male emergence by Hubert Polacek

96 21

Rare moment to see, 15 years ago I thought that shot can be repeated like maybug flight photos.

At that time, infestated Polistes wasps were not so common in Central Europe but I was well directed by my friend, Prague entomologist Jakub Straka, to find them. Today, due to warming, they can be found easily. I can see these wasps every year and also had found some male parasite adults in our kids inflatable swiming pool. Male parasites are very agile fliers but they survive only few hours after emergence, they need to find female(s) very quickly. Anyway, after a few tens of minutes of searching they drop to the ground and die of exhaustion due to limited energy supplies.

But the emergence of male(s) is so quick process that I do not know anybody who documented this in nature. In captivity, both wasps and parasites can be confused and emergence often occurs around midnight like in this case (01:24 AM).

My rechargeable AA batteries were almost discharged, I took only 2 shots.

Link to the SPIEGEL article with their edited version, maybe the text is still there, too.

Little Owl by Tim Melling

87 29

While I was waiting for my Badgers to appear yesterday evening a Little Owl landed in a tree at the back of the garden. I occasionally hear them in the night ( www.xeno-canto.org/592430 ) but this is the first time I have actually seen one in the garden. This wasn't said Little Owl, but another I found on a walk about three miles from home this week. It isn't as close as I'd have liked but I liked the setting among the fresh sycamore leaves.

Little Owls were introduced to Britain in the nineteenth century and have now spread over much of England and Wales but Hadrian's Wall must be a barrier to them as they peter out rapidly in Scotland if you look at the distribution map: app.bto.org/mapstore/StoreServlet?id=284 According to BTO the British population is about 3600 pairs.

Hen Harrier by Tim Melling

88 42

Here's another photo of the female Hen Harrier who's nest we visited under licence to ring the chicks. This photo shows her beak open as she was "chittering", an alarm call you are unlikely to hear away from the nest. Here is the chittering call recorded in France on the excellent Xeno-canto website: xeno-canto.org/670733 Because of the extreme vulnerability to persecution I have been asked to withhold even the general area where this was taken, but it was in the north of England.

When I finally managed to return to flickr I saw some wonderful images of this sim, so thank you to Annie Klavinham, Ziki Questi and others for sharing your images and the location.

I spent a long time exploring, and each step there was something new - the way the light changed, a detail, an angle - to delight the eye.

This is somewhere that will repay repeated visits.

So after having Grifters head done for a while I decided to make him a semi-complete figure. It's not the most detailed figure, but I like it. Xenos was pretty easy when it came to the figure, but the cannon was the hardest part.

Portraits of Polistes dominula wasp male (right) and strepsipteran parasite Xenos vesparum male puparia (left) in the same scale photos.

I had spent 2 weeks observing these parasites and waiting for their (males) emergence. Left picture was probably the most contributional to previous knowledge about Xenos vesparum - pale puparium on the right extruded several days after the left one and definitely after the wasp eclosion.

Newer puparium extrusion was preceded by hemolymph leakage from the surrounding of the older one, therefore I concentrated to the wasp and made some photos - remaining droplets are still there.

Taken with Pentax *ist D camera and Soligor 100mm macro lens with some extensions (time data presented belong to the wasp portrait).
