A frame full of workers. Think this was a brood frame, but it's hard to tell with so many girls at work!

The Canadian National takeover was mere weeks away.
Well, welcome to spring! Couldn't think of a better representation from Florida that spring has officially arrived than to welcome it in with this adorable sandhill crane colt. In this image, it's also a special day ... for it's Uno's 1-week birthday!
As many of you know, I'm an official craniac, so when I heard of this cutie's presence in our world, I set to wake up super early and drive up to see him/her. It wasn't a drive without incident (thanks Tom), all good though, for seeing this colt made it all worthwhile (as well as spending time with my dear friends Jess & Michael ... it had been too long).
Words cannot describe how sweet this little one was and how thrilled I was to get to photograph "a morning in the life of" this colt. Being already 1 week old, Uno was making his way through the grasses alongside its parents pretty good, taking short naps along the way, and receiving tasty bugs and worms from its parents. Always a favorite activity of mine was the "catch-up chase" whenever it would lag a bit behind. At times, Uno would stop and look over at us, as if to wonder where our parents were. LOL. Of course, the wildflowers in the frame with this cutie were one my favorites. Love, love, love cranes, especially these young colts.
I hope that if spring hasn't arrived in your neck of the woods yet, that it will soon. As far as south Florida goes, unfortunately I think we'r already well on our way to summer. Either way, hope that you enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Thanks for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments.

The light that the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope collected to create this Picture of the Week reached the telescope after a journey of 250 million years. Its source was the spiral galaxy UGC 11397, which resides in the constellation Lyra (The Lyre). At first glance, UGC 11397 appears to be an average spiral galaxy: it sports two graceful spiral arms that are illuminated by stars and defined by dark, clumpy clouds of dust.
What sets UGC 11397 apart from a typical spiral lies at its centre, where a supermassive black hole containing 174 million times the mass of the Sun is growing. As a black hole ensnares gas, dust, and even entire stars from its vicinity, this doomed matter heats up and puts on a fantastic cosmic light show. Material trapped by the black hole emits light from gamma rays to radio waves and can brighten and fade without warning. But in some galaxies, including UGC 11397, thick clouds of dust hide much of this energetic activity from view in optical light. Despite this, UGC 11397's actively growing black hole was revealed through its bright X-ray emission — high-energy light that can pierce the surrounding dust. This led astronomers to classify it as a Type 2 Seyfert galaxy, a category used for active galaxies whose central regions are hidden from view in visible light by a doughnut-shaped cloud of dust and gas.
Using Hubble, researchers will study hundreds of galaxies that, like UGC 11397, harbour a supermassive black hole that is gaining mass. The Hubble observations will help researchers weigh nearby supermassive black holes, understand how black holes grew early in the Universe’s history, and even study how stars form in the extreme environment found at the very centre of a galaxy.
[Image Description: A spiral galaxy, seen at an angle that gives it an oval shape. It has two spiral arms that curl out from the centre. They start narrow but broaden out as they wrap around the galaxy before merging into a faint halo. The galaxy’s disc is golden in the centre with a bright core, and pale blue outside that. A swirl of dark dust strands and speckled blue star-forming regions follow the arms through the disc.]

It's not often that WAPO is late, although it has been the past few Saturday's which has been nice for me. Seeing a couple of other folks out chasing was nice too, almost like times a few years ago where this train was largely a morning guarantee.
Here a group of us await in the field around Danville Jct, while a maintenance truck rolls up. Lucky for us, he didn't block the shot either, which about 60 seconds before he was (he got a sudden urge to backup, someone give that man a raise!).

serving pizza probably doesn't count as exercise (and even though it holds steady at 85 degrees there is sadly no sun to justify the sweating). i should stop pretending i know how to work on a website and enjoy the outdoors. and on that note, i think this is the last of these silly things that i'm going to make.
MYSTERIOUS ACTIVITY
TT has received a parcel in the post!
TT is Wilson's plush toy's plush toy so unsurprisingly he doesn't receive much* mail, and he's being very secretive about whatever is in today's little package.
Now he and Antony are in the workshop with Nërp building something secret, and I'm not allowed inside.
Nërp has even posted Jīqìrén outside to deter the curious, and she's got her plush robot with her for backup – I think she'd kill to protect that toy, so I shall not be approaching…
Honestly, it's bad enough when Wilson keeps things from me, but now even his plush toys are doing it I feel a bit out of the loop…

The European robin (Erithacus rubecula), known simply as the robin or robin redbreast in the British Isles, is a small insectivorous passerine bird, specifically a chat, that was formerly classified as a member of the thrush family (Turdidae) but is now considered to be an Old World flycatcher. About 12.5–14.0 cm (5.0–5.5 inches) in length, the male and female are similar in coloration, with an orange breast and face lined with grey, brown upperparts and a whitish belly. It is found across Europe, east to Western Siberia and south to North Africa; it is sedentary in most of its range except the far north.
The robin is diurnal, although has been reported to be active hunting insects on moonlit nights or near artificial light at night. Well known to British and Irish gardeners, it is relatively unafraid of people and drawn to human activities involving the digging of soil, in order to look out for earthworms and other food freshly turned up. Indeed, the robin is considered to be a gardener's friend and for various folklore reasons the robin would never be harmed. In continental Europe on the other hand, robins were hunted and killed as with most other small birds, and are more wary. Robins also approach large wild animals, such as wild boar and other animals which disturb the ground, to look for any food that might be brought to the surface. In autumn and winter, robins will supplement their usual diet of terrestrial invertebrates, such as spiders, worms and insects, with berries and fruit. They will also eat seed mixtures placed on bird-tables.
Male robins are noted for their highly aggressive territorial behavior. They will fiercely attack other males and competitors that stray into their territories and have been observed attacking other small birds without apparent provocation. Such attacks sometimes lead to fatalities, accounting for up to 10% of adult robin deaths in some areas.
Because of high mortality in the first year of life, a robin has an average life expectancy of 1.1 years; however, once past its first year it can expect to live longer and one robin has been recorded as reaching 19 years of age. A spell of very low temperatures in winter may also result in significant mortality.
