This is what the name of this dahlia, when translated, seems to mean.

Wild Carneddau Foal and Mother - Pensychnant Nature Reserve, Sychnant Pass, Conwy, North Wales - 21.6.2022 by Kenneth Simms
Via Flickr:
En route to Penmaen-bach Headland, to capture the Summer Solstice Sunset, I came across this newly born Carneddau Foal and its Mother three quarter of one hours earlier in the 148 acre Pensychnant Nature Reserve. It's can only be a few months old. Compared to the rugged and open surrounding hillsides and mountains this area offers distinct advantages for raising young. In fact I saw several parent groups with much older foals too. There are thought to be around 200 Carneddau Ponies living wild on the Carneddau Plateau between Aber and Conwy on the North Wales Coast - of which the Pensychnant Nature Reserve is a part. They are a sturdy and hardy breed capable of surviving even the harshest of winters. Research has shown them to be one of the rarest breeds in the world - having lived in the mountains for thousands of years and being around since the time of the Celts. Such lovely and endearing animals - long may they continue!

All my life I have used a Nikon, but recently, out of nowhere, I was given the unimaginable gift of a Canon EOS Rebel T7 and all of its friends you see pictured here. (Picture taken by Nik. Credit where credit is due.)
I have never used a Canon before, heck, I have been using a Nikon forever and still don’t know what I am doing with that! (Nik can confirm.) So now I am on a new learning curve and all of you who so graciously follow me are coming along for the ride. Apologies in advance. :D
This is the first photo I figured out how to take. I got lucky. And this particular Hummer is used to my shenanigans. No promises from here on out. :D

A Bloodstained Passerine
A Dicaeum cruentatum, commonly known as the scarlet-backed flowerpecker, assessing the threat level of the soft camera shutter noise in the botanic gardens. Photo credit: Eleanor Chua.
The Latin name “cruentatum” seems to be referring to something “bloodstained”. Thus the title.
We were photographing a raft of otters feasting on fishes when this flowerpecker announced its arrival at this shrub. It didn’t get to eat much though because it was apparently bothered by our shutter noise and got spooked after just a couple of mouthfuls.
