This was my first time in the presence of these beautiful creatures! I couldn't tell which was the male and the female of this Burrowing Owl pair, but I spent some time watching the one of the left yawn, and yawn, and yawn. And then they worked to groom each other. Here the one of the right has moved closer and in front of the other who gives me the "eye" behind its mate.

Calling for Backup - A Bald Eagle calls to its mate for some backup to defend its nesting territory.
This image was taken 5 years ago in Alaska. The Bald Eagles against the stunning mountain scenery evoked a sense of freedom and majesty that I fondly remember. Wishing everyone a safe and happy 4th!

Do they have enough backup lights? Where are they going...Back To The Future? I can understand why with all the self driving cars on the horizon. What fun is that?

Amazing how the colors here and in the leaf shot (next in stream) are so similar. And right around the block from each other.

Today, I hitched a ride with fellow flickr member JaiJad with plans to shoot CSX K636 on the River Line and other action on the soon to be sold West Albany block. After our arrival we quickly found CSX to be a parking lot, so we started to weigh out other options nearby. We decided to choose NS 22K with some foreign power on the nearby D&H. Here we see NS 22K passing through Howe's Cave, NY in a small flurry.
If you believe fully in yourself you won't even think about having a backup plan If you really know in your heart that you are doing the right thing, there will be no doubt. If there is doubt, then either it is the wrong path or you are not ready. Your fear is what makes you doubt yourself, and it is this fear that you must overcome first. This fear makes you look for security. The need of a safety net says that you don't believe that you can make it. That creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. If there's no question in your mind then you will proceed as though you've already made it.

Due to the slight annoyance of having their citizens eaten by the beast of ABS, the Blacktron Empire created a task force to eliminate the foul creature.

We really dodged a bullet with our recent winter storm. They had predicted an ice storm with up to a half an inch of ice. But we ended up getting mostly sleet and a couple of inches of snow. The last time we had ice at a half inch, our power was out for almost four days....and we spent the first three in our bitterly cold house, desperately wishing we had a backup option. Every space heater in the area had been snapped up by the time we could get to the store, but on day four we managed to find this kerosene heater. And wouldn't you know, about four hours after we set it up and finally got warm....the power came back on.
At any rate, we didn't take any chances this time, and had our heater set up and ready for action before the event. I'm pleased to say we didn't need it, but as there is another storm on the horizon for the end of the week....this thing is staying right where it is for now. 😊
One of Nyíregyháza's, and pretty much north-eastern Hungary's only two Ikarus 415s, EWS-831 leaving Halmosbokor hamlet behind in the last rays of the early-winter sun.
These two units (the other being EWS-834) are only used as backups now, so it's not that easy to bump into them. During the summer both of them were replacing some Volvos and Credos under maintenance for a solid week or so, but unfortunately we just missed them with Michał (we had more luck with 200 series in the area).
This picture would've been possible without the help of Tamás, I hope that he will also reveal some hits from this rather pleasant day very soon! :)
Sorry, I didn’t get out this morning. It’s a good thing I keep backups.

Well, I picked the wrong spot this morning. I went to Madison County Lake instead of Monte Sano State Park. Mostly because I was able to sleep a little longer. It was a beautiful sunrise on the drive to the lake.
But there was nothing happening on the lake. That’s twice I’ve seen it like that. It’s like all the critters have a secret rhythm and decided they’re all sleeping in today. Who knows.
It’s a good thing I have a backup plan. Here’s the sunrise on Monte Sano from yesterday.

Commander Krik is forced to have backup on his mission. There is a possibility that clone commander Spark might be held captive, which would lead Krik into a trap. Because of the dense foliage speeders and turbo tanks wouldn't be able to make it. The danger is high. No time for errors...
