Shows a Labrador Belgian mix at the beach in a mid-leap run that makes it look like he is flying. He probably was.
 Belgian Malinois-Labrador mix, often called a "Belgiador," is a high-energy, intelligent, and loyal hybrid, blending the intense work ethic of a Malinois with the friendly, driven nature of a Labrador. They typically weigh 40–80 lbs and require substantial daily mental and physical stimulation to prevent destructive boredom. These dogs are highly trainable, often suiting active owners, search and rescue, or protection roles, but they require consistent, firm, and early training due to their potential for high-drive, protective, or intense behavior

The weather skunk says it is, or has been, raining. It's so nice to see a skunk around again after so many years of no skunks. I doubt my neighbors feel the same way. 🤣 #mammals
A black and white night photo from my camera trap showing part of my garden with small landscaping rocks to the bottom left. Dirt, bark and leaf litter to the bottom right of the frame. Various plants, shrubs and flowers are in the middle and background. It has been raining and a striped skunk is in the photo, broadside to the camera, its head towards the left of the frame. Its fur is clumped in places as it is wet. Overall the skunk looks soggy but fit and healthy.

A queen (Danaus gilippus) in the Rio Grande Bosque in Albuquerque. Nectaring on, I think, goldentop (Euthamia). Based on the scent patch, it's a male. Photo taken back on July 9, 2026. #nature #naturephotography #butterfly
A butterfly seen in profile with its wings closed, as it hangs off a cluster of inconspicuous yellow flowers. The head is to the upper left. The wings are closed, with the fore wingtip to the right, so we're looking at the undersides of the left wings. The dominant wing color is brownish orange, with black veins and borders. There are white spots in both the orange areas and the black areas. The head and thorax are black with white spots. The abdomen is hidden behind the hindwing. The scent patch is the white spot, surrounded by black, next to a large black vein, almost directly down from the thorax. The background is mostly blurred out but includes green vegetation.

The provided shows a medium-to-large short-haired brown dog, a Labrador Belgian mix featuring hound or cur characteristics, relaxing upside down on its back on a bed or couch.
• The dog has a light brown or fawn coat, dark muzzle markings, floppy ears, and expressive dark eyes.
• Both photos capture a playful, relaxed "roaching" or upside-down sleeping posture with paws curled in the air.

A Great Egret standing in the green water plants at the edge of a pond. Its body is angled towards the left frame with its neck crossing in front of its body turned to the right so its head is in profile. The water behind it is a soft greenish grey and the light falling on it has a brushstroke effect.

I was over at Alners Gorse today - still plenty of Clouded Yellows about - this one looked a little care worn but was still constantly moving from flower to flower. I was searching for a late September basking Adder but there were none to be seen. I was looking more in hope than expectation.
