We were on a Quark Explorers Cruise on the MV Professor Multanovskiy, and we were exploring the Antarctic Peninsula. It was a beautiful day a after an impressive storm at sea. We took shelter from the gale in Hope Harbor, and we were invited ashore when the weather cleared.
It was a great landing. Base Esperanza is a year-round base that is the home to several families with children. The base has family-friendly facilities not found on most Antarctic bases. There is a chapel, a community ce...

Here's the main lawn at the Harold L. Lyon Arboretum, a research and education arm of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. I'm working on a 1.5 gigapixel version.
Brisk trade winds and rapidly moving clouds made this a difficult image to capture.

Where are the bee hives????
These bees were unloaded off of a truck the day before this Gigapan was taken. The bees were transported here on that truck from North Dakota.
We set the Gigapan up on the side of a hill and then drove down to the bees to work. You can tell what time of day it was because of the heavy dew on the grass and the perpetual haze on the horizon. Lots of pollen coming into these hives, bright orangish red pollen...nice apiary!!We sampled bees ,estimated the n...

Macaws eat a variety of foods including fruits, palm fruits, nuts, seeds, leaves, flowers, and stems. Wild species may forage widely, over 100 km (62 mi) for some of the larger species such as Ara araurana (blue & yellow macaw) and Ara ambigua (great green macaw), in search of seasonally available foods. Some foods eaten by macaws in the wild contain toxic or caustic substances which they are able to digest. It has been suggested that parrots ...

a rare shot of Nathan Rice of the USDA Beltsville, MD Bee Research Lab recording notes rather then working the hives. Congratulations Nathan, it feels good to sit on that cooler doesn't it?
Since we started working in the upper left hand corner of the panorama, the camera caught us just as we were going into our first hives of the yard. If you look at the hives to the northeast of us you can spot the sample kits we use to collect honey bee samples.
Typically we get out of the car an...

Nearbynature photo contest:
I live in Peru and took this photo of a large macaw clay lick in the Amazon rainforest. Every morning hundreds of macaws and parrots come to the clay lick to eat clay which helps neutralize their bodies of toxins that they may have ingested from eating other plants and also gives them their daily dose of salt. Macaws that have babies take the clay back to their nest and feed it to their kids.
Macaws eat a variety of foods including fruits, palm fruits, nuts, s...

What's in your water?
Dillon Reservoir provides drinking water for the Denver Metro Area. Braving a lake 55 meters deep, researchers from the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) take to the ice to test water quality and assist the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in gathering samples that will be analyzed for pharmaceuticals.
Researchers trekked the frozen lake and drilled through more than a foot of ice to reach the waters beneath. A big challeng...
