Call me crazy, but this guy looked like Ben Bahan. Not that Ben Bahan could possibly have been playing the bass (and other instruments) in a stage show at Disneyland. But still, he looked like him.

Southern Emu-wren (Stipiturus malachurus)
Image by David Cook Wildlife Photography (kookr)
Croajingolong National Park, Victoria, Australia. Male.
An elusive species at best! These guys only live in coastal heath and invariably are buried deep inside heathy shrubs – this male was inside a bush in poor light, and some distance away (so heavily cropped), but I did have a clear shot of him. He was reacting to a playback recording on my iPhone and was very interested in the "other" emu-wren in his territory, but not interested enough to come out into the sun! Just love that tail.

Southern Ringneck

My cats brought this little fella into the house to chase it around. What a sight – four excited felines with their entire attention focused on what looked like a piece of shoestring on cursory glance. Except, it was wriggling and slithering for its dear life, the cats hot on its tail. I managed to capture it in the living room – the snake seemed unharmed and happily slid away into the underbrush when I released it in the backyard. Hopefully it learned a valuable lesson and will stay out of the cat enclosure in the future.

CP244 Live Oaks and Spanish Moss

Walking and playing in Forsyth Park.
MIT mini-reunion July 2011 in Savannah, GA.
From Wikipedia:
Quercus virginiana, also known as the southern live oak, is a normally evergreen oak tree native to the southeastern United States. Though many other species are loosely called live oak, the southern live oak is particularly iconic of the Old South.
Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides) is a flowering plant that grows upon larger trees, commonly the Southern Live Oak or Bald Cypress in the southeastern United States. It closely resembles its namesake (Usnea, or beard lichen), but in fact it is not biologically related to either mosses or lichens. Instead, it is an angiosperm in the family Bromeliaceae (the bromeliads) that grows hanging from tree branches in full sun or partial shade.
It ranges from the southeastern United States (as far north as southern Virginia and eastern Maryland) to Argentina, growing wherever the climate is warm enough and has a relatively high average humidity. It propagates both by seed and vegetatively by fragments that blow on the wind and stick to tree limbs, or are carried by birds as nesting material.

This was a fantastic race: amazing technical course, fast riders and a great atmopshere to hang out.

Charlie Bowman(fiddle), Al Hopkins(vocal) and the Original Hillbillies from 1926. Charles Thomas “Charlie” Bowman was the fiddler with the original Al Hopkin’s Hill Billies, the first country string band to gain national notoriety on radio and records. The group is generally thought to be responsible for establishing the string band as an important part of country music. When the recording company asked for the group’s name, one member mentioned that they were just an “old band of hill billies.” The name stuck. Bowman is credited with bringing the Hill Billies their most popular song, “Nine Pound Hammer”.
