We are getting more adventurous and have increased the ceiling of operations to 50m. Slightly overcast day with showers around. Better overview of the fjord

So I thought I was smart and took a picture of the back of my AVR so I could remember all the connections...LOL.

Bremmer Calmont, the steepest wineyard in Europe (50 - 55 degree). The small path is the Via Ferrata which passes through it. Just right of the road outside the picture is the river Mosel.

Picture extracted from video taken with DJI Mini 4 pro:

Turning the drone 180 degree, we see Bremm, a small village with several winemakers. I can recommend Kilian Franzen.

Some fresh entries to my ongoing series: Terrible Photographs of Raptors Being Raptors.

Had a red-shouldered hawk perched, precariously, in the sumacs this morning. By the time I got my camera, a crow had decided to request its departure. The raptor complied, albeit probably begrudgingly.



The ensuing scene reminded me of Ewoks chasing Storm Troopers on the Forest Moon of Endor*. Not that my photos capture the drama... but... I tried, you know? I fully expect a trophy for my efforts!


annotated...

EDIT: Upon further assessment, it looks like two more unhappy Ewoks, umm, I mean, corvids flanking our beleaguered apex predator-buddy!



Moments later, literally just as the pair (EDIT: parade?) above disappeared from easy view, we espied a Cooper's hawk, laden with prey, out in the backyard.
More Bad Raptor Photos, of course, were the result.




The victim has been tentatively identified** by Mrs. H as a robin, but that's very provisional.

These 2 people are not afraid by the lions..
I've been living in Togo and Ivory-Coast, Africa, from age 5 until age 20. There are many lions and elephants in the north of Ivory-Coast.

That was the episode where Roadrunner convinced Wile E. Coyote to try para gliding?

Where we live, there are bears. Black bears, not... scary bears.
Still... one would prefer not to see one as close to the house as was this one one evening in June 2023.

First pine warbler we've seen this year. This one decided to visit one of our feeders, which was a bonus!

 

[mhardy6647]

The pine warbler was back today -- which is nice, since today's a FeederWatch bird count day (and yesterday wasn't).
