Mother nature has the habit of keeping herself clean and it was a brainwave in design to keep all of her residents healthy and fed.

A very nice thing to say. This is the ecosystem of nature. In a very beautiful way you have photographed the food scene of this bird.

The brainwave was not really a brainwave, as it was the supreme wisdom of our God my friend.
No man can ever design such an intricate failure proof system.

Thank you for the compliment.

Gull waiting for the water to clean the sand off after rolling it around, gourmet bits laying there will not last long!

Lovely captures on an early walk down today Stephen!

Food for thought, I don't think we will be here long enough to eat a pill, in time it may come true.

Very clever those Gulls are Lady Joan, they use the sea in amazing ways and I even have them on camera dropping shells from high up on the rocks in order to crack them open.

Between you and me, I will be happy to leave this planet and you are right, it will happen in the future when all of us are no longer around.

Yes, very clever birds and a friend told me how he saw a gull methodically finishing off a big crab.

We are 28 C to 19C and one of the reasons why we battle to sleep at night. Some days I sit and work until 1 am in the mornings, just to tire myself out completely. Then I am over tired and it takes 2 hours to fall asleep and up again at 6am.

Nothing goes to waste on the beach, dead fish, crab all cleaned up.

Cloudy here so we never enjoyed the true solstice or moon, promise of rain on Christmas day more in the afternoon, kitchen duties in the morning may have to plan a midday lunch with family before rains arrive in the afternoon.

Most days I will be online from around eight to six, then I do other chores around the home in the evening normally turn in around midnight.

Cooler in the evenings to get anything done, turn the clock around somewhat 😉

Oh yes, I read today that KZN has received a new warning about bad weather heading your way.

Same here with the clouds, but thankfully we have a cool wind blowing. Our problem is the pollen here as we are sneezing ourselves silly. But they say that eventually our bodies will acclimatize to the conditions.

We will have a simple lunch for the two of us on Christmas day and I will go and take some photos somewhere. Nothing planned.

I agree as the cooler parts of the day is the best to get things done.

I still do not have Oneup or tipu, but sometime I will look into it.

My last big project of the year was in Cape Town harbor where we were working on the HVAC on a ship. One of those same gulls flew in, right before my eyes, in the midst of a constructions site (people were more than 10m away) and this guy dumps a big live crab on the concrete.

The crab stood up, claws in the air, doing its best to fight, but that gull methodically took him to pieces and within minutes the crab was limbless and nothing more than an empty shell. I had been waiting at a gate and had my phone to my ear and all this was happening while I was talking to someone about work-related stuff.

I managed to snap up the end bit of it on my phone.

Was pretty awesome seeing a bit of random nature on site though. Never too far away...

Must have been a great event to see my friend. I would have put the call on hold and taken many shots.

We visited the waterfront and two guys sat down with packets of chips at a wooden table below us. Two gulls flew in and landed near the the guys on the table. The guys chased the gulls away.
So the one guy took his cap off and the one gull returned to sit slap bang on his bald head.

The guy swore and slapped at the gull so the gull scattered and the two guys took their chips and walked away to find a place that is gull proof.
I got all of this on camera and posted it here on hive maybe 2 years ago.

Yes, Zac, nothing is wasted in nature, Mother Nature takes care of everything and of all of her children. She still takes care of us humans too, but she is also showing us that she is angry, very angry.

Lovely photos as always, my friend, and as long as I don't smell what' I see on the computer monitor, I don't mind seeing the little Ray.

I think that we are singing the same song about Mother nature's anger Hannes.
A power that can obliterate many lives on this planet. Mankind is know for ignoring warnings in their strive for profits, but it is that very same profits that will turn upon all of us with a very serious bite.

Thank you and no smell as that ray was fresh my friend.

So true but then again it is said that the innocent will always suffer. Remember that the sun shines on both the good and the bad.

Marian is the same and she leaves me to go in alone into the fish market. I am lucky as my nose was broken when I was young and even though a doctor opened it with a hammer and a chisel (God's truth), he didn't succeed completely, so I still have a poor sense of smell 🤣 !Lol

Poor little ray, I hope he didn't suffer!

Pill form food? Not for me! I feel like there could be a happy compromise in letting even big cities have areas to produce vegetables, perhaps on rooftops. And of course encourage local farmers to continue. We really don't need all of that shipping. There has always been trade between those who want to produce food, and those who don't. We don't need every human becoming a farmer?

Oh yes, we can only hope that it was an instant death.

No pill, not in our lifetime but to come I believe. All plants need oxygen and the way that we are going, oxygen is going to become scarce in the atmosphere. Some scientists reckon that if we continue to pump the poisonous gasses into the air, that there will be no hope in the near future.
I can see a time when people will live in thick glass domes to protect them from natures anger.

Now you know that I forgot this and I got it the other way around. Of course plant releases oxygen and that's why we have a few "Spekbooms" here in our garden, as they are reputed to be the best oxygen releasing plants over here.

Yes, more plants and a restoration of the forests will go a long way in helping the situation.
