Behold the Royal Fly Catcher (Onychorhynchus coronatus)! This bird has a colorful secret: Though it’s usually concealed from view, both males and females sport fan-shaped crests on their heads. Typically, this species only uses its headgear during elaborate courtship rituals or while preening. Males’ crests are scarlet while females’ are yellow-orange. It can be found in humid forest habitats across northern South America and southern Mexico.

Catching You: Halbarry Big Bang Collaboration!

For @halbarry-big-bang! I had a great time working with Sweet Apples on this project! We both gravitated to the Nascar aesthetic, and it was a fun challenge trying to capture the energy of a midair rescue!

Catching You by SweetApples02

Racefliers, athletes who compete against the worlds best and fastest flyers for a chance of being the once in four years champion. Barry Allen, a name that Hal only knew from his friend’s mouth as Ollie raved about the champion title and the influence “Flash” carried over fans. The racer didn’t have any significance to Hal though, at least until Ollie convinced Hal to help him vandalize the Flash track insignia the day before the first race of the year during a drunken night. Catchers, fliers hired to catch racers in distress. The same position that Hal was forced to pretend to be in when he awoke the next day in the stadium. Waiting out the event out of moral obligation, Hal found himself in another pickle. A collision sending the Flash crashing down- and taking Hal with him when the vandalizer turned Catcher attempted to catch him. The legalities afterwards continued the problem. Video footage and Hal’s witness to the collision bringing a discovery that it wasn’t just an accident, but the coverup of Hal’s involvement could turn his statements futile at any turn. And the budding looks and quiet conversations between him and the recovering champion was a whole new problem by itself.

@oof-ouch-yikes-stripes and @anxiety-is-mymiddle-name: the first chapter is up now!

new predicament in my hgss playthrough: peep lance's team real quick for me

oops all flying types. oops all hard-hitters too. levels go pretty hard as well

now peep my daffy pals:

besides the glaring lack of effective STAB in my best men (sushi and maple) everyone is fragile as shit in some key ways and none is a good fit for the opening gyarados for that matter. i have 0 ideas as to how to get through this league hee hoo

#soda offers you a can #thorazine does get some pretty good moves by lv 45 which is my target level atm #but a lot of those a bug moves and lance is basically a bird catcher #sledge has no special defense and the only fully-physical fella on lance's party has thunder fang #maple only knows dual screens and grass STAB so he's not gonna see much action here #sushi's got aerial ace and strength besides fighting STAB. also swarm instead of guts. hee hoo #unburied has technician double hit which kinda bangs but her purpose is to be an agility baton passer #she's fragile. she doesn't hit hard enough to make up for the damage intake #scythe is also fragile with a lacking damage output. there's also a lot of electric/ice moves on lance's fellas #uhhh yeap. yup. this is probably gonna be a sucky time for ya boy

Norfolk Coastal Oystercatcher by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: The Oystercatcher is a large, stocky, black and white wading bird. It has an orange-red bill and reddish-pink legs. In flight it shows a wide, white wing-stripe, a black tail and a white rump that extends as a 'V' between the wings. Because it eats cockles, the population is vulnerable if cockle beds are overfished. They breed on almost all UK coasts. During the last 50 years, more birds have started breeding inland. Most UK birds spend the winter on the coast where they are joined on the east coast by birds from Norway.

Ardmair views. Then photos were taken just before the sun set at Ardmair near Ullapool, in the north of Scotland.

The scenery is pretty impressive. As for the wildlife, in the few hours we spent there before the sun went down on the sea views were a couple of Oyster Catchers and a very smart looking Ringed Plover just meandering around on the foreshore. Neither seemed to be particularly afraid of me as I took a lot of photos from not a lot more than 10 metres away.

Ringed Plover.

This Ringed Plover wasn’t ringed, as in it didn’t have a ring attached to its leg, unlike its companion, below.

Notice the blue ring on one leg and the silver one on the other.

This smart Oyster Catcher was quite happy to carry on its preening as I photographed it from a few metres. They’re obviously pretty used to people, which was my good fortune.

Another sunset photo over the Firth.

BOTD: Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

Photo: Mark Kluge

"A very small woodland bird with a long tail, usually seen flitting about in the treetops, giving a short whining callnote. Often it darts out in a short, quick flight to snap up a tiny insect in mid-air. Widespread in summer, its breeding range is still expanding toward the north."
