This appears to be an immature Belted Whiteface. These dragonflies like to perch in between meals...

Having had some time away from the Hares due to being away I was keen to visit again and see what they were up to. So I went to visit yesterday morning at sunrise...
This young Hare was surprisingly confiding for a while before continuing on in what seemed a relentless search for food.
Not to often does wildlife come up to the photographer to get it's photo taken. This young bull calf did just that, I was waiting for a coworker to come out to the truck when this little fella walked right up next to the truck for a photo session. He was very small, so I am thinking he was a first year calf. There were other caribou that came through after him so they all joined up together after this shot.

In German, the name of the wren is "Zaunkönig", roughly King of the Fence. In this picture, that name seems to be well-deserved as this young wren still head a light feather crown. In a book about the history of German bird names by Suolahti (1909), the author describes an old tale where all the birds wanted to crown the one amongst them which can fly the highest. The eagle stepped up and flew high and higher... but on its back, a small little bird rode up into the air with him and at the highest point flew just a tiny bit higher. To the Eagle's dismay, that little bird received the "King" name. The author assumes that the bird in the tale was a gold- or firecrest, which today still carries the genus name Regulus for "little king". In some German-speaking regions the more often seen and admired wren received the "King" name over time with early mentions already in the 15th century. Interestingly it replaced the Old-German name wrendo, which is very similar to it's English name.
