They sure look good when new. BNSF 3650 leads the C-WTMPAM at Palmetto, MO. The first four of these ET44ACH's that were built are currently assigned 2x2 to this coal train for testing and should make multiple trips from the mine to the plant and back.
The fish is almost down so I think he was a little happier. Taken in Guanacaste, Costa Rica.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.
Lapwing on the Rushy yesterday.....
Scientific name
Vanellus vanellus
Familiar birds of farmlands and wetlands, lapwings can often be seen wheeling through winter skies in large, black and white flocks. As spring approaches, these flocks get smaller; some birds head back to their continental breeding grounds and others disperse to breed in the UK. Males put on dramatic aerial displays, tumbling through the air, accompanied by their piercing 'peewit' call, which gives them their other, common name: peewit. Females can be spotted on their nests, which are simple scrapes in the mud or sand. By late spring, cute, fluffy lapwing chicks can be seen venturing out to forage. If the nest is threatened at all, the parents will attacked or 'mob' the potential predators.
