A wide aspect ratio photograph of two woodpeckers sitting a small distance from each other, on different branches of the same birch tree and facing away from each other. The trunk of the birch is towards the right edge of the photo and a branch of another tree is right next to it to the left. The birds sit in shadow, but the blurry forest background, with out of focus trees further back, is bathing in golden light.

A color landscape photo of three birds sitting on a large round wood fence post. The birds are small and very plump and round. They are gray on the chest with bronze colored wings. Their bellies are checkered with bronze and white. Their heads are black with white lines under their chins and over the top of their heads. Each has a long upright tassel that sticks out in front of their face. Two are pointed toward the right and the one on the left has its back to the camera but is looking over its right shoulder.

It was a victory for a range of business interests that have lobbied to scale back the #CleanWaterAct of 1972, including farmers, home builders, real estate developers, #oil drillers & #petrochemical manufacturers.

…Under the #CleanWater Act, companies & individuals must obtain a permit from the #EPA before releasing #pollutants into the nation’s #waterways. They must receive a permit from the US Army Corps of Engineers.…

The #Trump admin proposed Monday to significantly limit the EPA’s authority to limit #pollution in #wetlands, #rivers & other bodies of #water across the country.

The proposed rule could strip federal #protections from millions of acres of wetlands & #streams, potentially threatening sources of clean #DrinkingWater for millions of Americans.

The typical attitude of a Stonechat, "Who are you lookin' at?!" South Walney.

Female Stonechat perched on a dead bramble stem that arches from the bottom corners of the frame. Although the body of the bird faces away from camera , the head is turned to left of frame and the one eye visible looks directly to camera.

This time of year is so interesting for interesting people interested in interesting things. Saw so much
#fungi today, and here are three of the best, plus a really interesting gall

1) Upright Coral fungus
2) Candlesnuff fungus
3) Snowy waxcap
4) Common spangle gall wasp's gall

A pink-orange fungus growing vertically. It resembles very upright coral with little branches coming off at the top
Some thin, pointed vertical fungus growing on wood. They are individual stems, black like coal dust at the base and a little way up the stem, turning to a powdery white
A silky, ivory white round headed fungus in grass. Almost jellyfish like. It has a translucent quality.
Close up of a dark brown oak leak with a number of circular galls with a circular raised centre ... think circular fried eggs of poppers on clothes. They are a pale yellow/off white, with speckles. You can't see them but each raised centre has a larvae inside.

An Athene cunicularia (burrowing owl) doing its best Wolfgang impersonation. All it needs is the WWII German helmet and a cigarette.

(I know, about 98 percent of you have no clue what I'm referring to.)

#Birds #Wildlife #Photography #Darktable

A color landscape photo of a small owl looking directly at the camera with its big round yellow eyes with round black pupils. All that can be seen of the owl is its head as it is behind a vine like plant, with medium size leaves, that is growing along the ground in front of the owl. The owl's head feathers and mostly brown with small light beige spots.

Athene cunicularia (burrowing owl) at the south end of the Salton Sea in California (10/24/2025).

#Birds #Wildlife #Photography #Darktable

A color square photo of a small owl standing on a mound of brown dirt. The owl faces toward the left with its head turned, looking at the camera. It's dawn, so there's a long shadow behind the owl. The owl is mostly a golden brown with white splotches. It's eyes are large, round, and yellow. The rising sun is reflected in its right pupil. It's legs are bare with very large feet and talons.
