an island in the middle of a lake in november at the end of the afternoon. the colours of the trees and the clouds are reflected in the still water. some pylons are in the distance. this is an urban oasis of quiet.

A bright sunset casts warm, golden rays across a quiet outdoor landscape. Silhouetted trees frame the scene, with a large tree on the left and smaller trees in the distance. Soft, scattered clouds glow pale pink in the late afternoon light against a blue sky, creating a peaceful, serene atmosphere.

After documenting an expanding Flesh-footed Shearwater population on Phillip off Norfolk last month, it was delightful to walk through the 10,000 burrow-strong Clear Place colony on Lord Howe last week. #SuperSeabirdSunday

Quiet mornings at the local ponds just as the sun is about ot rise is one of my favorite times for photography.

Looking across a pond at the trees on the far shore. The trees have all lost their leaves. The trunks and branches are silhouetted against the clear sky which is shades of oranges and purples and blues from the rising sun. There's a small flock of ducks swimming across the pond near the far shore.

I started moth trapping in August and for a tiny suburban garden I’m amazed what I’ve seen, this is a treble brown spot from early October.

Last week on the North York Moors (Northeast England) - before the weather turned! The freezing cold will probably finish off most of the fungi; hopefully the birds will move out of the worst of it🤞

On Waterfall Wednesday we're sharing this view of Thornton Force along the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail. The River Twiss drops 14 metres off a cliff of limestone that was laid down over 350 million years ago.

For the first time, humans have tracked an individual butterfly, as shown in the Monarch migration of north America.
