This is a location I'd always wondered about but never tried until today. This is just upstream of the dam at the famed West Warren waterfall shot. In years past you could never shoot from here because it was within the fenced off limits of the Wright Mill complex, part of which is visible at left. But the mill closed in 2006 after 140 years of continuous use and now this side of the Quabog River is accessible. This is eastbound CSXT train Q436 (Selkirk to Worcester) running in 2x1 DPU configuration near MP 75 on the old Boston and Albany.

After a Flickr friend (D. Berg) told me about being attacked by these aggressive guys while bike riding, I had to post this.
Watch out Dave. He's waiting for you!!!
It must be rather nice canoeing on a flat calm sea. These three were heading in to shore on a rather calm evening in Peel.

This is my new little baby! Of the fur kind of course :) He's 8 weeks old here, and we are picking him up in a little over a weeks time! So exciting. I was able to go and visit him in person and take a few pictures of him today. He's even smaller than I imagined and sooo sweet.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Straddling the divide between the cold spring morning and the warmth of the sunlight, just one button is required on this fur coat. Enjoy!
In 2005 there was a massive influx of Great Gray Owls into the northern United States. Normally this species inhabits the boreal forests of Canada and northern United States where it feeds primarily on voles. Vole populations are cyclic and crash every so often, which forces these owls to travel south to find food.
I had heard about how tame these owls were given they inhabit remote areas and do not have much contact with people. I was thrilled to be able to get full frame images of these birds with just a 70-200mm lens. They are very charismatic and exciting to see in the field and provided me with an experience I will not forget. If you ever have the opportunity to seem them in the wild, I highly recommend it.
Main line to your heart
Away, apart, an arrow,
Razor love bleeds in my hands
Revile, rocoil, release and relieve
Your ghost haunts
My waking life dreams
Emerge when you sleep
Do we dance with our lives apart, or will we be true

One often sees the internecine aftermath of ant warfare in the field, one species seemingly welded onto another like some dysfunctional appendage. Given that ants are unable perform autotomy - voluntary limb loss like harvestmen, a dead hitchhiker which permanently reduces its fitness could spell the end. Fortunately for the ant, the colony provides the answer. By beseeching its nest-mates, this gliding ant (Cephalotes atratus) is able to indicate that it is in discomfort. Neighbouring ants, while grooming, tug and pull at the smaller ant's carcass, whose mandibles are locked around its foe. Sometimes these cleaning nest-mates can do no more than sheer the body down to a more manageable size so that the encumbered ant can remain useful to the colony just a little longer.
