The Ash-throated Flycatcher, Myiarchus cinerascens, is a passerine bird in the tyrant flycatcher family. It breeds in desert scrub, riparian forest, brushy pastures and open woodland from the western United States to central Mexico. It is a short-distance migrant, retreating from most of the U.S. and northern and central Mexico, spending the winter from southern Mexico to Honduras. This bird is also prone to wander, with single birds often seen outside its normal breeding range as far away as the east coast of North America.
The nest is built in a tree cavity or similar natural or man-made hole, and the normal clutch is three or four eggs.
Adult Ash-throated Flycatchers are 19–20 cm long and weigh 24–31g. The upperparts are olive brown, with a darker head and short crest. The breast is gray and the belly is a very pale yellow. The brown tail feathers and wings have rufous outer webs, and there are two dull wing bars. The sexes are similar.
The Ash-throated Flycatcher is separated from other confusingly similar Myiarchus species by its calls, a burry kabrick and a rough prrt or wheer heard year-round.[1]
This species is primarily an insectivore that flies from a perch to catch prey from the ground or from foliage in the undergrowth, less often from branches and trunks, hardly ever in midair. Unlike many other tyrant flycatchers, it often moves on to another perch rather than returning to the same one. It also takes some fruit, especially in winter if insects are unavailable. Rarely, it takes small mammals and reptiles, which it kills by banging them against hard objects.[1]
Although Mountain Ash was one of the last bastions of NCB steam in south Wales, diesels had started to make an appearance. The platforms behind the pannier tank were on the old GWR Pontypool Road to Neath line.

“Listed as Endangered under the Endangered Species Act, the Ash Meadows Sunray is endemic to the refuge. That means you can't see it anywhere else. That's right, it only lives here at Ash Meadows NWR. This unique plant is blooming now and should bloom through June.” (Ash Meadows NWR)

Ash tree at sunset + various effects
Ash.
Sweet burning ash, wood for Viking boats
and for a witches broom.
Oss, its rune: the mouth, the form
resembling the growth of the tree itself,
its runic branches with upturned tips
reaching towards the sky.
Feathered leaves rustling in the breeze,
reluctant to anticipate the spring,
withholding green until the other trees are full in leaf,
retaining dry bunches of winged seeds
throughout the winter gales.
This is ash country, Odin’s ash,

Ashness Bridge, a packhorse bridge over the Barrow Beck along a narrow lane running from Derwent Water to Watendlath in the Lake District. The view from here shows Derwent Water and the peaks of Skiddaw in the distance.
Ash Cave was my third and final stop on my late Oct visit to the Hocking Hills State park, near Logan. I think Ash Cave is just an amazing place, and very changing to capture in a photograph.
Ash cloud that reached Sockholm/Sweden today from the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull that recently had a outbreak.
Ash trees heavy with autumnal seeds frame a service in the Pennines, nearing the head of the Worth Valley where the mountains begin to close in on both sides.
Best seen large.

A solitary ash tree in a field at Sulby. It was still very green when I took this. Lots of ash trees here have gone a lovely shade of yellow this year but there are many that are still green while there are many that have lost all their leaves.
I liked the sunlight shining through the leaves and branches.
