Interesting how the Badgers on Winter Watch were moving old bedding out of the set and collecting new possibly for new arrival’s. Could this rabbit be doing the same is Spring on its way!
Looking down on the eastern edge of the lovely fishing village of Pittenweem from the Fife Coastal Path. The low tide allows a good view of the parallel rock beds which are a feature of this stretch of coast.
Weit vor Plan war der 5400t schwere Erzzug GM 60607 von Hansaport nach Beddingen am Nachmittag des 19.04.2020 unterwegs, als er nahe Bad Bevensen an einem großen Rapsfeld vorbei fuhr. Die AK-Loks 151 116 und 151 094 sorgten für die nötige Traktion an einem der schwersten Güterzüge Deutschlands.
The kitties always love when we change the bedding each weekend, immediately laying on it when it’s done. Today it was especially nice with the sun coming in. They really know how to enjoy the simple things in life (which are often the best things)!

In geology, cross-bedding, also known as cross-stratification, is layering within a stratum and at an angle to the main bedding plane. The sedimentary structures which result are roughly horizontal units composed of inclined layers. The original depositional layering is tilted, such tilting not being the result of post-depositional deformation. Cross-beds or "sets" are the groups of inclined layers, which are known as cross-strata.
Cross-bedding forms during deposition on the inclined surfaces of bedforms such as ripples and dunes; it indicates that the depositional environment contained a flowing medium (typically water or wind). Examples of these bedforms are ripples, dunes, anti-dunes, sand waves, hummocks, bars, and delta slopes. Environments in which water movement is fast enough and deep enough to develop large-scale bed forms fall into three natural groupings: rivers, tide-dominated coastal and marine settings.

My husband tried to divert the dog's attention from the fact that the kitten was playing on his bedding. And I lured the kitten onto this bedding with a thread. Soon our pets stopped being afraid of each other and became friends.
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments! It's greatly appreciated!
This slice of Navajo sandstone in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument shows well at least six layers of cross bedding, where the layers are angled relative to the horizontal plane. These cross beds occur where sand has been blown by the wind across a sloped dune formation, resulting in a layer that is deposited at an angle different than the flat surface.
Navajo sandstone was deposited 200 million years ago when this area was a massive sand dune formation, larger than the current Sahara desert, with depoists as thick as 2400'/ 730 m.
The modern combined harvester, or simply combine, is a versatile machine designed to efficiently harvest a variety of grain crops. The name derives from its combining four separate harvesting operations—reaping, threshing, gathering, and winnowing—into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, rice, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), sorghum, soybeans, flax (linseed), sunflowers and rapeseed. The separated straw, left lying on the field, comprises the stems and any remaining leaves of the crop with limited nutrients left in it: the straw is then either chopped, spread on the field and ploughed back in or baled for bedding and limited-feed for livestock.
A dusting of snow overnight highlights the bedding planes (the lines separating one layer of compressed rock from the next).
Took all our tulips and daffodils out of the containers and now replaced with summer bedding plants.

I took a whole bunch of shots of the 6988 this weekend, but my favorite, by far is this shot of it laying over on the west side of downtown DSM on Sunday night. I had just finished up dinner at Fong's, and ran down here to get something a bit different, before retiring to the hotel for the evening.
Shoutout to the IAIS, and all of the volunteers who helped make this weekend's trips possible!
I made some bedding...

Including a rather adorable PukiFee for size ref ;)
I found this picture in my archives of Jimmy looking quite good. He's looking a little rough around the edges at the moment. His allergies are acting up so he has dark discharge from his eyes, waxy ears, bad chin acne, red lesions above his eyes and the bumps on his tongue. He got a short acting steroid injection two weeks ago that didn't do much so I'll have to take him in for a "skin scraping" on his tongue and a stronger steroid. He doesn't seem uncomfortable or itchy - these are all just responses his body has to some unidentified allergen out there but these flare ups are not attractive.
Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana)
In Lentil Field
near
Carmichael, Saskatchewan, Canada
a lone "antelope' laying down like this is usually a sign it has young nearby - and sure enough i did see a newborn in this field of lentils later on.

Excerpts From
www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/pronghorn/
The pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) is a small, very fleet ungulate of the order Artiodactyla.
The extinct American cheetah probably helped shape the pronghorn, for it is now the fastest mammal in North America (Corel Professional Photos).
Pronghorns are the only living descendants of the family Antilocapridae. They can run at speeds exceeding 100 km/h
In the heart of Biltmore’s Walled Garden is an architectural treasure, almost as beautiful as Biltmore House. The Conservatory, designed by Biltmore House architect Richard Morris Hunt, was built to provide Biltmore House and the gardens with flowers and tender bedding plants. Today, more than a century later, it still fulfills that role. Carefully placed at the lower end of the garden, so as not to obstruct the view from Biltmore House, the Conservatory consists of four main rooms. The central room is a “Palm House,” which contains a large collection of palms, ferns and other foliage plants. The annexes include a cool house, hot house and orchid house. The total heated space under glass in the Conservatory is over 7,000 square feet, making the structure an exotic escape in cooler months. The Conservatory was originally heated using a system that forced hot water through cast iron pipes placed under the plant benches. The hot water was heated by a coal-fired furnace and boiler in the basement. Ventilation and cooling was controlled using side and roof vents that were opened and closed manually using hand-turned cranks or chain pulleys. More than century later, these vents are still in use. When construction on the Conservatory was complete, George Vanderbilt and Frederick Law Olmsted created a list of plants that were suitable and desirable for the estate’s plant collection. The list included palms, ferns, orchids, azaleas, roses and violets. When Vanderbilt married Edith Stuyvesant Dresser and brought her to the estate in 1898, the Conservatory allowed Edith to indulge her passion for plants. Estate records show that she was especially fond of carnations, chrysanthemums, roses and sweet peas. The plant collection in the Conservatory expanded to include her favorite plants, with special orders placed to growers stateside and in Paris. During Vanderbilt’s lifetime, the Conservatory began providing plants and flowers to All Souls church in Biltmore Village. The tradition started in 1897 with a gift of palms for Palm Sunday and continued with flowers on holidays such as Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. The tradition still continues today as a sign of Vanderbilt’s lasting legacy.

Im Harzvorland begeistern täglich die VPS-Werkspendel zwischen Beddingen und Ilsenburg. Hier verlässt Tiger Nr. 1 mit einem Brammenzug den Werksbahnhof auf seiner Reise Richtung Ilsenburg.
One of the hardest things to do is get an accurate focus point locked on your subject when he is behind weeds. To do this I set my lens to manual/infinity then my camera to AF focus search off and selected center focal point.
