Good morning friends!

This adorable Pileated Woodpecker showing off his beautiful bright red crest made me smile. I hope he makes you smile too. 🥰🪶

Overcast morning scene two weeks ago. I like this lovely hill landscape - even if it's less iconic than "real" mountains.

Hills with groups of trees in autumn colors, separated by low hanging fog in first bit of daylight before sunrise (overcast sky). The combination of hills, trees and fog make nice layers.

A #SnowyEgret walks from wet sand toward the ocean and its breaking waves.

A Snowy Egret, back to us, head turned to the left, walks in wet sand toward the deeper foamy gray-blue breaking waves of the Atlantic Ocean.

Tree of the day. In an Uber taking my little cat to the vet. She’s yowling, but I can’t resist a photo of this tree. #BostonIsBeautiful

For #UrbanGaze! A shot from one of the prettiest towns in Ontario that could be right of a fairytale or a Hallmark movie (not that I watch them). Niagara-on-the-Lake. #Photography #EastCoastKIn

Never expected to come across a Fox during this week's cold snap over the Vale of Glamorgan out in the afternoon sunshine 22/11/25 ~ this one is obviously being fed looking at the size but what a cute cuddly beauty 😍🦊 #mammals #fox #wildlife #bluesky #naturephotography #naturetherapy #ukwildlife
A fox is a small, dog-like animal with a bushy tail, pointed ears, and a slender snout. Its fur is typically reddish-brown, though it can be other colours, and has dark markings on its front legs that resemble socks. To a partially sighted person, focus on the tactile and auditory details: a fox's movement is quick and silent, like a cat, and it makes a variety of sounds from sharp barks to soft yips. Its sense of smell is also highly developed, which it uses to find food.

A Black Squirrel, surrounded by green grass and crumpled brown leaves, sits looking at me. His arms hang straight down, and his paws are nearly together in front of him. His tail lies in the grass horizontally to the left of his body (to the right in the photo).

This Red-bellied Woodpecker was posing (posting?) nicely for me. #birds #birding #woodpecker #BirdOfTheDay
A woodpecker is perched on the left side of a square post, part of a boardwalk through a very birdy marsh. He's looking over his shoulder towards the right side of the image. As is usually the case, there is only a smidgeon of a hint of red on its lower belly!
