@stgreenie Excellent work! My feeble contribution...

What if the tree falls, & though nobody was there to see it [ergo, this was a totally silent event; 😜], it sadly fell onto a butterfly, which was so alarmed at its impending demise, flapped its wings so hard that it created a hurricane on the other side of the planet?

The hurricane was so severe, yet also so strategic, that it only took out all the , , , , , , , , , , & also [coz they wet their nests].

I'd lionise that selfless tree & butterfly; erect statues of them everywhere.

Oh well, at least a gal can dream [of androids & electric sheep?].

Irises of that survive turn from blue to black, study finds
Avian flu has killed wild and domestic for decades but current strain severely affected populations across , with particularly high death rates among gannets. Black irises – instead of usual blue – were first seen in gannets breeding on Bass in June last year
‘Fascinating’ discovery could prove a useful non-invasive diagnostic tool to apply to other species. theguardian.com/environment/20

⭐️New!⭐️
I have added a new bird drawing to my listing, it's two gannets, such spectacular birds. As it's a pair, it might be a good Valentine gift for a bird or nature lover

Flying Tākapu (Australasian ) photographed at last Summer. While I'm not a dedicated bird photographer, I do like taking their photos from time to time.

This Summer however, really hasn't been ideal for photographing them...

And just because I'm on a Northern Gannet kick today, here's another one of my favourites from my visit to Ile Bonaventure in Quebec.

This is one of my favourite photos I took on Bonaventure Island, which is part of Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé in . Its colony of Northern (116,000 strong) is the most accessible in the world. Visiting the colony was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had in my life.

These mated pair are engaging in the act of fencing, which is what they do when a male returns to the nest.

I have had a thing for ever since I visited a large colony of them on a small island off the shore of Gaspé peninsula in Quebec. Nigel the Gannet—probably the single, most well-known that ever was—was on my mind this morning. If you're not familiar with the story of Nigel, here's a good summary at the Guardian:

Holiday visit to RSPB Bempton cliffs this morning. Just missed the albatross, but still an incredible spectacle. Cliff sides absolutely coated with Gannets, Razorbills, Puffins, Kittiwakes. Also now a member of the RSPB again, which feels good.
