I like this one even if there is a big piece of grass in there; the landing configuration is fascinating #bird #birds #blackbird #black #nature #photography #photo #wildlife #nisqually

Just a magpie, at the castle in Düren, minding its own business.

Another "bubble with silhouettes" #drawing. This was meant to have cozy sunny Summer day vibes... colours here are rather image of emotions than actual sky, sunlight etc.

Knot with some nice red summer plumage at Bowling Green Marsh, #Topsham, #Exeter. Wandering about doing Knot things. Allowing some comparison with other #wader species.

Psyche Receives Gravity Assist from Mars

Explanation:
Solar System bodies make deep space exploration more fuel efficient! Today’s video shows the Psyche spacecraft gaining speed and changing its trajectory with minimal fuel spent due to a gravity assist from Mars in May 2026. Mars has an average orbital speed of almost 87,000 km/h (54,000 mph) around the Sun. Its orbital motion and its gravity allowed Mars to pull Psyche along with it, increasing the spacecraft’s speed. Gravity assists have been used since 1959’s Luna 3 mission to allow for spacecraft (the Voyagers, Cassini) to reach farther than they could with fuel alone. This assist helped the Psyche spacecraft on its journey to the Psyche asteroid, which it will reach in 2029. While passing Mars, the spacecraft tested instruments that will analyze the asteroid’s composition and magnetic field. This is the first mission to an asteroid largely made of metal, an essential building block for planets, rather than rock or ice.

Made a breakthrough today: the friendly Robin I feed finally took meal worms from my hand :-)

Not sure of its gender, but it spent ages sitting close by and watching as I relaxed on the garden bench. It looks around a lot - quite a wide degree of head movement - but no song yet. I wonder whether it's thinking of moving in!

Found two old nests: one in a nest box in a (died of drought) willow tree, and one in an old boot I put up, under the cotoneaster.

Great visit to Bowling Green Marsh hide with
Dave B. Highlights for me were 3 Knot, 7 Cattle Egret & pint in the legendary Bridge Inn.

I was walking along, just thinking my thoughts, my eyes focused within and not looking around me. And then I looked up and saw this majestic, quiet valley, just waiting for me to find a path through the grass and enter into its Shangri-la.
