This Eared Grebe chick looks too big to be riding on Mom's back! She should give a little shake and tell him that it is time to leave home! Taken at Weed Lake, east of Calgary, Alberta.
Thank you for your visit and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Could not turn down an invitation for a meet up in Derbyshire, especially for another day with the Dippers. The problem was trying to achieve something different.
Thanks Steve and Ian. Great day with good company.
As always, your comments and faves are much appreciated.

Settle - Carlisle Railway, Yorkshire Dales National Park,
The Railway opened in 1876, nearly closed in the 1980s, but was reprieved, the line has gone from strength to strength since. Passing through spectacularly beautiful countryside, much of which is within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, many of the formerly closed stations have been reopened (often as rentable tourist accommodation), and are kept in excellent condition. It is very popular with both steam and diesel hauled heritage trains.
