One of my favorite pics from 2022, a cluster of sugar-exuding Callirhytis quercusgemmaria galls being tended by ferruginous carpenter ants (Camponotus chromaiodes).

Bees can be blue. Xylocopa caerulea, the blue carpenter bee, is non-aggressive and semi-solitary. They do not build hives like honeybees but instead prefer to live inside dead wood.

Have you ever gotten the old evil eye before? Some call it a βstinkβ eye. I think this must be it. Thatβs why I titled this image βThe Look.β Sitting high on a wooden piling on the bay, this Osprey was looking down and watching my every move while ominous storm clouds were gathering overhead. See it HERE: https://hhphotography.pixels.com/featured/birds-osprey-the-look-hh-photography-of-florida.html

This #MerlinFalcon was calling for some time while perched in the Spruce tree.They are small with heavily streaked plumage and look too small to do much damage but they are fierce and energetic birds of prey. When not hunting, they like to perch in open areas to scan for prey. Small but mighty comes to mind!

This iridescent, splendid little chap right here is a Red-Shanked Douc Langur monkey - and if you looked like that, you'd be Zen-like, too!
They're found in Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam.

I'm counting it for #WindowFriday
This is Water Holes slot canyon in Page Arizona. You need a permit from the native people to go there, and I think it may be shut down for covid - but it's like Antelope Canyon without the hoards.

Old Paria is a ghost town in Kanab Utah that's been reappropriated for the filming of western #movies.
It's a very unique and beautiful area that's a little less traveled than a lot of the other #attractions in Kanab.
It's one of our favorite spots.
