Just a reminder that a lion roar is 114 decibles—loud enough to cause hearing loss if you’re close enough. That apparently happened to a man hunting the infamous Tsavo lions.

American bitterns can be tough to spot despite their decent size because their striping helps them blend in so well among reeds and grasses. They often stand still along marshes as they watch for fish, frogs, small mammals, insects and more.

What did the dolphin say when he made a mistake? "Hey, I didn't do it on porpoise!"🥁

Sploot like nobody’s watching.
ALT What an unbearable day! It's not uncommon to see a bear sploot, or sit face down after digging a belly hole to relax in and digest a meal.

Finally I have sorted out the best pix from my week in Spain, in early June. 3 main targets were both Sandgrouse, & Montagus Harrier…..with a few extras thrown in. I hope you like them…Black-bellied & Pin-tailed Sandgrouse first.

Red-flanked duikers are one of the smallest species of antelope, measuring in at less than 15 in tall and weighing no more than 31 lbs. Aside from their small size, this species can be identified by the large preorbital glands on their snout, which form bulges in their cheeks.

Long Tailed Skua, Karigasniemi, Finland, June 2023. These were one of my favourite birds of the Arctic. Lots of attitude.

Orcas hold the remarkable distinction of being the most widely distributed marine mammal ... they're found in every ocean of the world! 🌎 Plus, they can live up to 50-80 years in the wild. Talk about an incredible life! 🌊

Bathed In Sound is a song about trying to imagine myself as a whale floating in the ocean, immersed in a liquid medium full of sound, surrounded by plankton and the immense wild wetness of the ocean.
Hope you like it!

They are athletic and agile. Their long, bushy tails aid in their agility. Much like with domesticated cats, a fox's tail helps it balance as it moves through its environment. They also use their tails to help keep them warm and signal danger. #WillCountyWildlife
