November 30 Day Challenge - last few days!

Day 28, Birds I would like to meet...all rare or extinct, on the 30th of November it is not only the last day of my 30 day challenge it is also the Remembrance Day for Lost Species, November 30th, I have shared this on some of today's photos so apologies if you have seen it but I feel that on 'Black Friday' it was particularly poignant, Chris Jordan is talking about the Atol Albatross for his Midway Journey project "For me, kneeling over their carcasses is like looking into a macabre mirror. These birds reflect back an appallingly emblematic result of the collective trance of our consumerism and runaway industrial growth. Like the albatross, we first-world humans find ourselves lacking the ability to discern anymore what is nourishing from what is toxic to our lives and our spirits. Choked to death on our waste, the mythical albatross calls upon us to recognize that our greatest challenge lies not out there, but in here." ~cj, Seattle, February 2011
