A Great Egret approaches a snag for a landing at Little Creve Coeur Marsh in St Louis, Missouri. I really like this version in black and white. Check out those water droplets coming off of both feet as he opens his claws to grab a perch!

I was out on the nearby meadows again this morning. The windy weather made taking macro shots almost impossible and the flying grass pollen caused a terrible hay fever attack. I returned home rather quickly but it was lovely to see that the thistles on the meadows are beginning to flower and I hope that they will soon attract some butterflies. For now only a hoverfly was interested in the first buds.
Having split off the Cowen Subdivision just a few minutes ago, the Z813 continues south to Alexander on the Pickens Subdivision. The parallel road tells part of the story of coal mining in this region, which remains a profitable but dangerous business in these parts. In 2006, the nearby Sago Mine disaster claimed the lives of a dozen coal miners in an explosion.

Canadian National train No. 485, with welded rail up front, approaches Windy Point west of Devona, Alberta, on August 5, 2016. A formidable wall in the background is the Miette Range, while the train is tracing the shore of Jasper Lake, which is a “wide spot” in the Athabasca River in scenic Jasper National Park.
We took a drive out of Pewsey Downs this morning to make the most of the great clouds and managed to get caught in the rain from this beast of a cloud!
