This summer if you find your self around water check the trees and sign posts for this guy; a belted kingfisher. Kingfishers can be quite nervous if you get too close and will fly off without hesitation or warning. If you look close what might appear to be the white of his eye is actually a marking; you can see plainly the difference in this photo.

You are a Crab

I was a visitor to the beach front property of this little fella and it was obvious that in spite of all of the arrangements made to get to his estate I was still not welcome. I placed my camera as close to the sand as I could and he got a little aggressive and began to charge at me. I could only assume that he did not want me around, at which point I stated the obvious, "What a Crab".
