A Western sandpiper (Calidris mauri) forages on the shoreline of #VancouverIsland. To get this image, I anticipated which way the flock of sandpipers was going then I layed down on the ground.

"Twotone
Whilst not indigenous to the UK the Black Swan has a tendency to ingratiate itself with it's larger cousins, the Mute Swan. Side by side though they are much smaller in size and utter a musical and far reaching bugle-like sound which is very different to the Mute Swan." (photo and text N Hurst)

Because Piwigo has started to annoy me, I’ve decided to write my own photography site. The URL is still the same (https://beakandlens.com) but it’s now running my own site made using Jekyll instead of Piwigo.
It’s still very much a work-in-progress, but the main functionality, viewing photos, is already there!
And since I always forget to mention it in my posts here, my photos are licensed under CC BY-NC. So go check them out and download them if you wish!

World tiger population is at over 5500 with India hosting the largest number.
Tragically, there are more than 8000 tigers in captivity, which is not where they belong. Tiger farms use tigers for public display and entertainment, are engaged in illegal trade of tiger and tiger parts and do not contribute to wild tiger conservation.
This beautiful tigress is from Bandhavgarh, India. Photographed in 2018.

I’ve been hanging out in the marsh the last few weeks trying to see the sora who have come to eat the wild rice. They are easy to hear but hard for me to see through the thick vegetation. I think this photo will be the best I get this year. Happy Wednesday everyone!

Living in a medium sized city it's not often I see interactions between large species. The eagle caught a fish & landed on an ephemeral log out of frame to the left. After eating the fish, the eagle hopped to the juvenile great blue heron's log. It's a favorite fishing spot for the eagles so it may have been trying to intimidate but the heron stood its ground.

"‘Floral Bath Tub’ by Mousam Ray
A crimson sunbird is seen enjoying cooling water pooled in the petal of a banana flower in India. Ray’s images often pick birds as their subject, and in this instance he notes the sunbird is “showing a very rare behaviour”. It’s “as if nature creates a floral bath tub for her”, he says."

Map Turtles are a freshwater reptile with light markings that resemble the contour lines of a map. These two were enjoying each others company, with one giving us a little hello wave, while sunning on a log at the Moon River Ontario Canada and are a species of concern.
