Van 8 t/m 11 september ging ik samen met een vriend 4 dagen treinen spotten in het mooie Tsjechië. De voorspellingen lieten een aantal dagen met zon zien en qua werk kon het ook nog even.
Op vrijdag konden we de derde dag met zon aftikken en daar werd weer goed gebruik van gemaakt. We besloten de ochtend te besteden aan de diesellijnen Ostroměř-Stará Paka en Křinec-Městec Králové. 's Middags werd de hoofdlijn Nymburk-Lysa nad Labem bezocht. Bij de middagstek bij Kamenné Zboží werden binnen een uur zes goederentreinen gefotografeerd.
Hier zien we de ČDC 163 217-3 met een fraaie kolentrein richting Lysa nad Labem bij Kamenné Zboží op 10-9-2021.

Laughing Gull
The Laughing Gull (Leucophaeus atricilla) is a medium-sized gull of North and South America. It breeds on the Atlantic coast of North America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. Northernmost populations migrate further south in winter, and this species occurs as a rare vagrant to western Europe. (There was an influx into North-west Europe in late October 2005 when at least 18, possibly as many as 35, individuals occurred on one day in the UK alone.) The laughing gull's English name is derived from its raucous kee-agh call, which sounds like a high-pitched laugh "ha... ha... ha...".

Ruddy Turnstone
The Ruddy Turnstone (Arenaria interpres) is a small wading bird, one of two species of Turnstone in the genus Arenaria. The scientific name is from Latin. The genus name arenaria derives from arenarius, "inhabiting sand, from arena, "sand". The specific interpres means "messenger"; when visiting Gotland in 1741, Linnaeus thought that the Swedish word Tolk "interpreter" applied to this species, but in the local dialect the word means "legs" and is used for the redshank.

Elk of Benezette
Elk, also known as Wapiti or Red Deer, enjoy large populations in North America, primarily in western parts of the United States and Canada. These large relatives of deer are also found in smaller populations in other parts of the world, in protected native groups or introduced populations. Their preference for open woodlands and a range of elevations make many states habitable for elk, though their current range is much smaller than their historical range.
Elk in the United States
The western U.S. and Rocky Mountain regions make up the bulk of the elk range in the United States, though some populations exist farther east. Significant populations are found in Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, such as in Yellowstone National Park and the Wyoming National Elk Refuge. Smaller pockets of elk can be found in various Midwestern states, such as South Dakota and Minnesota, and small populations have been established in eastern states including Pennsylvania and Kentucky.

There is a lot to see in the friendly Belgian Lier in the province of Antwerp. The city park is definitely worth a visit. In May of this year I enjoyed a long walk through Lier and the nature in the park is very colorful. This bridge is a work of art in itself and many people stop to look at the beautiful landscape where the colors of nature make the white bridge even more beautiful.
Op vrijdag 16 april 2021 was R2U opnieuw erg actief. Terwijl de 2104 bezig was met het lossen van de een dag eerder door de 101003 aangebrachte CD ketelwagens in Oss-Elzenburg, reed de 2101 in de ochtend een Pannonia ketelwagentrein vanaf Kijfhoek naar Venlo. Dezelfde 2101 mocht aan het eind van de middag een LPG-trein mee terug nemen, die naar de Sloehaven werd gebracht. Terwijl de in de middag ontstane stapelwolken inmiddels zo goed als zijn opgelost kon de trein worden vastgelegd bij Etten-Leur. De hoop was dat de fraaie trein een stop zou hebben in Roosendaal en dit bleek zo te zijn, waardoor met scherp stuurmanskunst een tweede plaat mogelijk bleek. Toen de trein in het zicht kwam kwam er jammer genoeg net een VIRM van achteren, maar ik had enorm veel geluk dat de trein niet hard reed en de machinist eerder langzamer dan sneller ging rijden waardoor de tegentrein net uit beeld was en zo zien we in de late avond deze loc met sleep gasketels als trein 47584 nogmaals aan de fotograaf passeren ter hoogte van Roosendaal op weg richting de Sloehaven.

David Nash, Balance Column, 2021

" La verticalité est une composante importante du travail de David Nash. La sculpture Balance Column, 2021, en acier Corten, rappelle les cairns, ces amas artificiels de pierres dressés sur les plages. Comme grossièrement coupées à la hache, les formes géométriques de David Nash s’amoncellent en une colonne dont l’équilibre parait tantôt fragile tantôt assuré. Pour lui, la forme doit composer avec différents paramètres pour s’épanouir : la matière, l’espace et le mouvement.
David NASH : Né en 1945 à Esher, Royaume-Uni, il vit et travaille à Blaenau Ffestiniog, au Pays de Galles. Depuis 50 ans, David Nash se laisse guider par un instinct créatif qui lui est dicté par son sujet de prédilection : les arbres. Prenant la forme de sculptures parfois monumentales, parfois aux formats plus humbles, l’artiste s’adapte à chaque forme de tronc ou de branche pour inventer des sculptures et des installations..."

Black Skimmer
The Black Skimmer (Rynchops niger) is a tern-like seabird, one of three very similar birds species in the skimmer family. It breeds in North and South America. Northern populations winter in the warmer waters of the Caribbean and the tropical and subtropical Pacific coasts, but the South American races make only shorter movements in response to annual floods which extend their feeding areas in the river shallows.

Burrowing Owl
The Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) is a small, long-legged owl found throughout open landscapes of North and South America. Burrowing owls can be found in grasslands, rangelands, agricultural areas, deserts, or any other open dry area with low vegetation. They nest and roost in burrows, such as those excavated by prairie dogs. Unlike most owls, burrowing owls are often active during the day, although they tend to avoid the midday heat. Like many other kinds of owls, though, burrowing owls do most of their hunting from dusk until dawn, when they can use their night vision and hearing to their advantage. Living in open grasslands as opposed to forests, the burrowing owl has developed longer legs that enable it to sprint, as well as fly, when hunting.
Burrowing owls have bright eyes; their beaks can be dark yellow or gray depending on the subspecies. They lack ear tufts and have a flattened facial disc. The owls have prominent white eyebrows and a white "chin" patch which they expand and display during certain behaviors, such as a bobbing of the head when agitated.

Double-crested Cormorant
The Double-crested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus) is a member of the Cormorant family of Seabirds. It occurs along inland waterways as well as in coastal areas, and is widely distributed across North America, from the Aleutian Islands in Alaska down to Florida and Mexico. Measuring 28–35 inches in length, it is an all-black bird, which gains a small double crest of black and white feathers in breeding season. It has a bare patch of orange-yellow facial skin. Five subspecies are recognized.
The Double-crested Cormorant is found near rivers, lakes and along the coastline. It mainly eats fish and hunts by swimming and diving. Its feathers, like those of all Cormorants, are not waterproof and it must spend time drying them out after spending time in the water. Once threatened by the use of DDT, the numbers of this bird have increased markedly in recent years.

Looking down Woodland Road towards the town of the same name, Wisconsin & Southern train L591 is passing through on the morning of October 26th, 2021.
At this very same moment, there is also a set of three Canadian National units already heading down from North Fond du Lac for a rendezvous at Slinger with this WSOR eastbound where the train (presumably either grain, feed corn or soybean loads) will be handed over to the CN to be forwarded on towards its final destination.
