A CP Rail SD40-2F, aka a "Red Barn", leads a unit grain train west through Hector, British Columbia. CPR 9010 would be retired and sold to the Central Maine & Quebec Railway.

 

9010 would return to CP Rail when the railroad repurchased the lines spun off to the CM&Q. It was sent to Progress Rail for an overhaul, and received fresh CP paint. It splits its time between company service MoW trains, and filling in where needed for local freights and transfer jobs.

 

A hearty thank you to Colin Smith for his help regarding 9010's return to CP Rail.

Canada warblers were numerous in the park today but i was always a few minutes late. Finally caught up with one in the afternoon and it was worth the wait.

 

Cardellina canadensis

Canada Warblers fly more than 3,000 miles from their wintering grounds in South America to their breeding grounds in the United States and Canada.

Bernache du Canada

This introduced species is now widespread across England and Wales, but has a somewhat patchy distribution in Scotland and is localised in Ireland.

 

Native to North America, the Canada Goose was first introduced to Britain in the 17th century. UK numbers have more than doubled since 1984, the result of predator-free nesting sites, good feeding opportunities and low hunting pressure.

 

While North American populations are highly migratory, those here are largely sedentary. However, many individuals make a significant moult migration to favoured sites, such as the Beauly Firth, where they complete their annual moult.

Happy Canada (July 1st) to all my fellow Canadians!

Macro Mondays: Sticker

 

One of a set of Canada stickers I have, which also includes several maple leaves, a Mountie's hat, and -- of course! -- a moose. I wanted to show the little adhesive square on the back, so I dug out one of my miniature mirrors. The mirror is less than 2" in diameter; frame is about 2.75" across.

A Canada Lynx ( Lynx canadensis) wanders out of some shrubs next to out tour bus in Denali National Park in Alaska, U.S.A.

 

Given the colouration of its fur, it blends very well with the surrounding habitat.

Preparing for their fall migration, these magnificent birds are always fun to photograph.

 

Thanks for viewing, faves and comments are always appreciated !

5/23/24--October Mt. MA

On the 158th anniversary of Canada’s Confederation, a quintessentially Canadian scene unfolds at Glenogle, British Columbia, as a trio of EMD SD40-2s cautiously guide a welded rail train along the banks of the Kicking Horse River. Hemmed in by slide fences, steep canyon walls, and the river’s surging rapids, this rugged and remote stretch of track remains every bit as awe-inspiring, and seemingly impassable, as it was over 140 years ago.

 

It was through this very corridor, carved at tremendous cost and effort by the builders of the Canadian Pacific Railway, that the vision of a united Canada was forged into reality. Driving steel through the heart of the Rockies, the CPR’s completion fulfilled a pivotal promise: to connect British Columbia to the rest of the young Dominion and secure its place in Confederation.

 

On a day set aside to celebrate Canada and what it means to be Canadian, we must also reflect on the immense sacrifices made by those who came before us. We may not be a perfect country, but we are undoubtedly fortunate to live in one of the greatest (and most beautiful!) nations in the world.

 

Wishing all my fellow Canucks a very Happy Canada Day!

An image taken from the Canada Day fireworks taken last evening here in London Ontario. I hope all my Canadian friends had a wonderful Canada Day!! Happy 152nd Birthday Canada :)

One more in a series of Canada Jay shots.

 

To me they look more petite than the other Jays. They have the same wing span as Blue Jays, Steller's Jays, and Scrub Jays, but if they were the size of a Sparrow or a Chickadee, they would look the part.

  

A strange visitor to our garden, Albert our resident Swan, is very territorial and chased this goose up and down the canal until he found refuge in our garden.

"Canadian Glow"... I'm bringing the year to an end with one of my favorite shots from 2014, the Northern Lights. This was from my November trip to the Canadian Rockies in Alberta, Canada. Hope you all had a fabulous 2014 and wish you the best for 2015. Happy New Year!
