Find me a cheekier beef horse than this, and I’ll gladly give you my favourite teapot. Detail, colour, taste and pure cheek – this cheeky cow’s got the lot. To quote what she said to me just after I took the picture: “Moo”. And you can’t argue with that. Proud of your kitchen? Imagine this beauty on your wall. As a picture, I mean. Not the actual cow. Look at my lovely shop: http://baddoggy.redbubble.com/ Taken on the cliffs above Robin Hood’s Bay, near Whitby, North Yorkshire. I could’ve cropped it conventionally, but I couldn’t bring myself to chop out that sky.

I had nearly forgotten about this bird I photographed in 2004, and it’s funny, I wrote a poem about a starling (not about one quite as stunning as this picture though) around the same time: The Starling / by Zoe Marlowe Time, hearts, wings, true friends bring. / Soulmates share laughter in timeless magic. / In breathless dreams, love’s depths, bells ring. / Impossibilities keep silent passion tragic. The starling spreads her fine and glossy feathers. / As she flies, a breeze dries her diamond tears. / Welcomed rain bathes her deepest longings treasured. / Her secret hidden, her heart impaled by fears. A new day warms on a glowing horizon’s verge. / While hope wanes for the starling, sadly convinced. / That if she weren’t a merely plain and common bird. / She’d fly a tango with the dark-eyed prince.

Well, kind of. This is as near to an apocalyptic scene as Cleethorpes is ever likely to get. Until the apocalypse, that is. But that’s not coming for at least 2 years, so this will do in the meantime.

Superb Parrot / Scientific name: Polytelis swainsonii / Family: Psittacidae / Order: Psittaciformes / Description / The Superb Parrot is a medium-sized parrot, with a swift and graceful flight. Its tail is long and the wings are backswept and pointed. Both male and female are mostly bright green, though the male has a bright yellow forehead and cheeks, with a scarlet band across the upper chest. The female is duller, with red thighs and patches of pink on the inner walls of the tail feathers. Both have a red iris and bright pink bill. The Superb Parrot is also known as the Barraband or Scarlet-breasted Parrot or the Green Leek. / Similar species / No other parrots are similar, though in flight it may be mistaken for a Cockatiel, Nymphicus hollandicus. / Distribution / The Superb Parrot is endemic to south-eastern Australia. It is found in the Riverina area of New South Wales and Victoria, and, in winter, in northern New South Wales. / Habitat / The Superb Parrot is found along timbered waterways and nearby well-watered woodlands, especially in River Red Gums along the Murray and Murrumbidgee Rivers. They are usually seen in family parties or small flocks. They roost communally in trees. / Seasonal movements / Superb Parrots move extensively within their range, with a migration to the northern part of New South Wales in winter. Movement is from the south-western Riverina area to central and northern New South Wales along the Namoi and Macquarie Rivers. / Feeding / Superb Parrots feed mainly on the ground, and sometimes in the foliage of trees. They eat the seeds of grasses and plants, fruits and berries, nectar, flowers and some insects. / Breeding / Superb Parrots nest in deep hollows or hollow limbs, in large trees along watercourses, usually in River Red Gums. The eggs are laid in wood dust at the bottom of the hollow. The female alone incubates and is fed by the male while on the eggs and when the young are very small. Then both parents feed the young. / /
