We awoke to a little snow last Friday. I made a quick visit to some of the local spots before work and I was rewarded with a few nice images. I arrived at the Sheebeen at 8.02am and the Guinness truck was just pulling out after another delivery of the creamy stuff :-) I didn't get time to compose this as I literrally hopped out of the car and started snapping. Needless to say all thats left are the photos as the heavy rain over he weekend washed the little snow away.
Hi All,
I managed to creep closer to Mr. Pileated than my last post of him. I clicked away as he pecked fast and furiously, (more like head banging)! :0(

Back to business. Returning sometimes feels like jumping on a moving train. New Orleans, btw, was awesome. I think Allison and I found our Vegas.
Terrific Tuesday to you.

Pier One, Walsh Bay - Sydney harbour.
Looking west across the harbour to the Blues Point Tower.
There's no lifeguard on duty, lol. So obviously you cannot dive into the harbour. BUT, anyway, why would you want to? Because along this pier there is the super amazing Pier Bar. Check it out:

I take pictures because I like it, not because I am good at it.

Hands clenched... holding a pen like a dagger... I am intrigued.
So my PC worked perfectly as would be expected yesterday and I was beginning to doubt myself. So far this morning it has again been doing weird unexpected things, software hanging unresponsive, random errors. It's brand new. The software is newly installed. It should not be doing this. I swear this machine is possessed!
I was going to attempt editing some of my 500+ waiting photos but now my trust in this computer is smashed again.
Anyway... I truly hope that you all have a wonderful weekend ahead my Flickr friends. Stay safe out there and keep the shutters clicking.
It is thought to have been first built circa 1627 as this date is carved on part of the framework. This is the earliest date to be found on any windmill in the British Isles. It should be remembered that such a structure would have had to have frequent repairs made to it, so the mill may predate 1627. It was dendrochronologically dated in 2004 by Dr. Martin Bridge of the Oxford Dendrochronology Laboratory when the oldest pieces in the buck were found to be from trees felled in winter 1595/96 and spring 1597. The 'new' crown tree was made from a tree that felled in spring 1670, while the quarter bars of the trestle were from trees felled between 1824 and 1826, so like most mills, it is a mix of old timbers variously recycled or hanging on from their original use.
For nearly three hundred years grain grown in the two adjoining villages was ground at the mill into flour. In 1874 the mill was bought by Adelbert Wellington Brownlow Cust, 3rd Earl Brownlow who owned the nearby Ashridge Estate. He subsequently left it to a local farmer, who ran a successful milling business from the mill.
In 1902 the mill was seriously damaged during an enormous gale, damaging it beyond the price of economic repair. Around 1922 the derelict ruined mill was bought from the Ashridge Estate by a farmer whose land was close to the mill. In 1937 he donated it to the National Trust. However, it was not until 1963 that a band of volunteers began to carry out renovations at their own expense. The mill appeared in an episode of The Champions titled The Invisible Man which was filmed in 1967.[2] In 1970, after an interlude of 68 years, the mill once again ground corn.

The business of collecting nesting material in the Sonoran Desert for little 'flying jewels', as hummingbirds, must be tricky. With a wing beat of about fifty times a second, together with amazing aerial control, I'm sure they are well up for it. This one, which I believe is a female ruby-thoated hummingbird, had migrated hundreds of miles south, but stopped short of the Mexican border, to settle in the Tucson area of Arizona. It's quite remarkable what turns up in people's backyards!
Many thanks for your comments, and with best wishes for a good day.👍
