The USA news is still reporting on the 43,000 Palestinian's murdered by the Israeli IDF & the Murderous Israeli Settlers/Savages. I wish they would tell the truth

Beautiful shot love the detail in the eyes, feathers and beak. Is this a Quaker or Indian Ringneck.

This Snowy Egret near Boynton Beach #Florida posed perfectly against a contrasting background and even lifted a foot to show off its golden slipper.

A brilliant white Snowy Egret walks through green duckweed as it looks for its next snack. Its black bill and leg contrast with the bright yellow around its eye and toes.

This Black Vulture is one of hundreds that roost near #Saltville, #Virginia. They are fun to watch because they are social creatures and always put on a show.

A Black Vulture sits on a branch stop with wings partly raised, ready to fly. White undersides of its outer primaries provide a distinctive identification feature that can be seen from a great distance when the bird is soaring.

Unknown lands lay ahead waiting to be discovered. The winding river a current of possibility for the curious mind. Adrift but not without purpose will I gladly float along.

What were people thinking when they voted this moronic convicted criminal to be president of the USA. An authoritarian oligarchy our country will be under attack from our president and his puppet appointed government within. This will be an uncomfortable ride

An interesting composition the sun draws your eyes to it as the lines of the tracks ebb and flow through side to side such motion visual beauty that is what my interpretation of the scene is
