  • Colours in Nature Colours
    Nature's Wonderful Colours Magdalena KonečnáMagdalena Sedláčková • Jana • Štěpánka Sekaninová Nature is teeming with incredible colours. But have you ever wondered how the colours green, yellow, pink or blue might taste or smell? What could they sound like? Or what would they feel like if you touched them? Nature’s colours are so wonderful ColoursIN NATURE and diverse they inspired people to use the names of plants, animals and minerals when labelling all the nuances. Join us on Magdalena Konečná • Jana Sedláčková • Štěpánka Sekaninová a journey to discover the twelve most well-known colours and their shades. You will learn that the colours and elements you find in nature are often closely connected. Will you be able to find all the links in each chapter? Last but not least, if you are an aspiring artist, take our course at the end of the book and you’ll be able to paint as exquisitely as nature itself does! COLOURS IN NATURE COLOURS albatrosmedia.eu b4u publishing Prelude Who painted the trees green? Well, Nature can do this and other magic. Nature abounds in colours of all shades. Long, long ago people began to name colours for plants, animals and minerals they saw them in, so as better to tell them apart. But as time passed, ever more plants, animals and minerals were discovered that reminded us of colours already named. So we started to use the names for shades we already knew to name these new natural elements. What are these names? Join us as we look at beautiful colour shades one by one – from snow white, through canary yellow, ruby red, forget-me-not blue and moss green to the blackest black, dark as the night sky.

Cover design by Jeff Belizaire ABOUT THIS BOOK Why does earlier Greek painting (Archaic/Classical) seem so clear and—deceptively— simple while the latest painting (Hellenistic/Graeco-Roman) is so much more complex but also familiar to us? Is there a single, coherent explanation that will cover this remarkable range? What can we recover from ancient documents and practices that can objectively be called “Greek color theory”? Present day historians of ancient art consistently conceive of color in terms of triads: red, yellow, blue or, less often, red, green, blue. This habitude derives ultimately from the color wheel invented by J.W. Goethe some two centuries ago. So familiar and useful is his system that it is only natural to judge the color orientation of the Greeks on its basis. To do so, however, assumes, consciously or not, that the color understanding of our age is the definitive paradigm for that subject.

Class: Mammalia (all mammals) Order: Carnivora(carnivores) Family: Otariidae(fur seals and sea lions) Genus: Zalophus (Pacific sea lions) Species: californianus (California sea lions) Distribution Where in the world does this species live? California sea lions are found along the west coast of North America from British Columbia to Baja California and in the Galapagos Islands, the Sea of Cortez and the Gulf of Alaska. Habitat What kinds of areas does this species live in? They live along the coast and off-shore islands. They have been found up to 75 miles out in the ocean. They may also travel up rivers that feed into the ocean. Physical Description How would this animal’s body shape and size be described? • On average, California sea lions are 5-7 feet long. • Males can grow to weigh over 800 pounds (390 kg). Females are significantly smaller growing to only around 220 pounds (100 kg) • California sea lions have a torpedo-shaped body with short dark brown to light brown fur. • By the age of five, males develop a distinct bump, called the sagittal crest, on the top of their heads and lighter brown to tan fur giving the appearance of a mane. • Sea lions look quite different than seals.

  • Mountain Lion Identification and Methods of Determining Sex and Age
    MOUNTAIN LION IDENTIFICATION AND METHODS OF DETERMINING SEX AND AGE Introduction South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (SDGFP) is responsible for managing wildlife and its habitat as well as providing outdoor-related recreation. Our public outreach programs promote appreciation, understanding, and stewardship of South Dakota’s wildlife. SDGFP is funded through hunting and fishing license sales. The purpose of this document is to provide information to anyone who wants to hunt mountain lions and for anyone interested in mountain lion ecology. This document presents information about mountain lion biology, physiology, and behavior; explains how to determine the gender of a mountain lion; and details some of South Dakota’s laws and regulations pertaining to mountain lion hunting. Mountain Lions in South Dakota Mountain lions are native to the Black Hills of South Dakota. Dispersals outside of the Black Hills have been documented; however, there has been no evidence of an established prairie population. Mountain lions are efficient predators that primarily prey on deer and other small mammals In South Dakota their natural predators include other lions, disease, vehicles and humans. South Dakota State University and SDGFP have studied in the past, and continue to study a wide range of topics related to mountain lions in the Black Hills including home range size, survival, dispersal, population size, prey selection, survey methods, hunting impacts, and disease. Results of these studies continue to guide management activities for mountain lions in South Dakota and can be found at http://gfp.sd.gov/wildlife/management/research-projects/default.aspx. South Dakota Mountain Lion Hunting Regulations 1) No person may harvest or attempt to harvest a mountain lion with a spotted coat (kitten) or any mountain lion accompanying another mountain lion 2) No person may release dogs (where allowed) on tracks indicating multiple mountain lions traveling together.

  • Texas Wildlife Identification Guide
    TEXAS WILDLIFE IDENTIFICATION GUIDE A guide to game animals, game birds, furbearers and other wildlife of Texas. INTRODUCTION Texas game animals, game birds, furbearers and other wildlife are important for many reasons. They provide countless hours of viewing and recreational opportunities. They benefit the Texas economy through hunting and “nature tourism” such as birdwatching. Commercial businesses that provide birdseed, dry corn and native landscaping may be devoted solely to attracting many of the animals found in this book. Local hunting and trapping economies, guiding operations and hunting leases have prospered because of the abun- dance of these animals in Texas. The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department benefits because of hunting license sales, but it uses these funds to research, manage and protect all wildlife populations – not just game animals. Game animals provide humans with cultural, social, aesthetic and spiritual pleasures found in wildlife art, taxidermy and historical artifacts. Conservation organiza- tions dedicated to individual species such as quail, turkey and deer, have funded thousands of wildlife projects throughout North America, demonstrating the mystique game animals have on people. Animals referenced in this pocket guide exist because their habitat exists in Texas. Habitat is food, cover, water and space, all suitably arranged. They are part of a vast food chain or web that includes thousands more species of wildlife such as the insects, non-game animals, fish and i rare/endangered species. Active management of wild landscapes is the primary means to continue having abundant populations of wildlife in Texas. Preservation of rare and endangered habitat is one way of saving some species of wildlife such as the migratory whooping crane that makes Texas its home in the winter.

  • Coloring the World: Some Thoughts from Jain and Buddhist Narratives
    religions Article Coloring the World: Some Thoughts from Jain and Buddhist Narratives Phyllis Granoff Department of Religious Studies, Yale University, 451 College St, New Haven, CT 06511, USA; phyllis.granoff@yale.edu Received: 2 December 2019; Accepted: 18 December 2019; Published: 23 December 2019 Abstract: This paper begins with an examination of early Indian speculation about colors, their number, their use, and their significance. It ranges widely from the Upanis.ads to the Na¯.tya´sastra¯ , from Svet´ ambara¯ Jain canonical texts to Buddhaghosa’s treatise on meditation, the Visuddhimagga, from pura¯n. as to technical treatises on painting. It turns then to examine how select Jain and Buddhist texts used color in two important scenarios, descriptions of the setting for events and the person of the Jina/Buddha. In the concluding reflections, I compare textual practices with a few examples from the visual record to ask what role if any the colors specified in a story might have played in the choices made by an artist. Keywords: Buddhism; Jainism; color 1. Introduction1 I begin this essay with two images of Avalokite´svara,close to each other in date, a sculpture from the 11th c. in the Cleveland Museum of art, Figure1, and a folio from a 12th century manuscript of the As..tasahasrika¯ Prajñap¯ aramit¯ a¯ in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Figure2. The Cleveland image shows traces of its original paint. Both images, of very different size, in completely different media, rely on angular lines and curves to convey movement and create a rich and complex tableau. By placing them together, I wanted to suggest that the vibrancy and motion in the painting also owe much to the skillful use of color.
