Of course, what I said for the female goes for the male. The male may be the junk collector for their nest, however. These are very fast birds, and it's difficult to find them on barbed wire or sitting on a post. I have perhaps 100 shots of the male IN a tree, obscured by branches and leaves. This particular shot took four years to capture.
The Bullock's Oriole is a little like the Belted Kingfisher. Both have a "ratcheting" call, and you hear them, but finding or following them is frustrating at best. Of course, if your camera is better at low light than mine (and that should be most of them), then park yourself with a tripod 50-100 feet from the lowest branches of whatever tree the nest is hanging in: one of the pair will perch there for a few seconds, at least in the morning. Oh, and get there by 9 AM, 10 at the latest. Watching over Western Bluebird nests is best done at about the same time, so I've been fortunate. The Western Bluebird Recovery Program of California will accept volunteers. They might even provide you with a screwdriver (to get into the nest boxes), a glove, and a pencil. That's all it takes.

Atticus & Mariko came to visit last week. We played around Muller Park's odd playground and they let me take some shots. Laid on the ground for this shot. Forced the light leak by loosely spooling the finished roll and pinching it a bit in the sunlight.

A cycling race at Poix du Nord in France, the July 19th 2009.
This is a photograph from the fourth annual running of the "Mullingar 10" - a 10 mile road race and fun run which was held in Dalystown, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday July 17th 2017 at 11:00. The race was organised by Mullingar Harriers who promoted the event. There was almost 280 participants in the event. The race follows a simple 'figure of 8' route. The race starts from Dalystown National School and heads north briefly to Dalystown cross-roads where there is a left turn which brings runners along the L1122 road. The only real cross-over of the route is at the 2.5 and 7.5 mile mark. The race completes a loop between 2.5 and the 7.5 mile mark which brings runners into the locality of Ballinagore. The final 2.5 miles of the race brings runners back through Cloneheigue and the final 1.5 miles of the race is along straight road heading north back to Dalystown and the finish outside of Wallace's Pub which is just off the N52 road.
The course was a mixture of long straight level sections of road with some short rolling hills which made for a challenging but an overall fair course. The race took place is warm temperatures with a strong southerly breeze in the face of runners for stretches along the route. However some beautiful mature hedgerows along the mostly rural roads provided shade and shelter from the sun for runners. This race has actually had excellent weather for its first four years with some runners saying that temperatures may have even been a bit too high for distance running.
This was the fourth year of the event it has become an annual fixture on the calendar. The running calendar today shows a marked shortage of races at the 10 mile distance and this was one of the original reasons this distance was chosen for this race. Clubs from all over the North Leinster region and beyond were represented today. Refreshments were provided outside Wallace's Pub at the Finish line. Well done to Mullingar Harriers and all the many volunteers who helped make today's race a wonderful success.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
Kabocha
This squash was sitting on our table at the beginning of our meal. It was removed from our table, opened, hollowed of seeds, and then deep-fried, whole. Hot out of the fryer, it was filled with a salad (including mushrooms) and capped to let the salad steam and wilt inside. At the end of our meal, the squash was presented, whole, with the salad inside. It was then removed and plated for us.
Paired with apple, barley, licorice.

This is a photograph from the finish of the annual Na Fianna AC "Bob Heffernan and Mary Hanley" 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Johnstownbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Tuesday 17th May 2022 at 20:00. These photographs were taken around the 500m to go mark on the course.
This race needs no introductions as it is now firmly established on the Leinster road racing calendar with athletes travelling from all over the region to take part. The race has gained a glowing reputation as being one of the fastest 5KM road races in Ireland. It is one of the rare occasions around road racing circles these days where a very small club can organise a very successful large participation race. The attendance at this year's race exceeded all expectations. Today's race had a record attendance with over 700 participants finishing the race following on from around 600 finishers in 2019. This is the first staging of the race since May 2019 after two postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This enforced hiatus has done nothing to reduce the allure of the race with runners coming from far and wide to participate. Popup Races were the official timing and event management partners of the race.
Our full set of photographs from today's race is at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72177720299045746. Please acknowledge us if you use these photographs for any purpose
This race has great historical and emotional significance for the hosting club Na Fianna. Since the race's inception over 25 years ago it has commemorated the years of work and volunteering that local man Bob Heffernan gave to Meath, Leinster, and Irish athletics from grass roots upwards and his work with the host club Na Fianna AC. This year the dearly departed Mary Hanley joins Bob in receiving the honour of race dedication. Mary was a stalwart athlete, coach and volunteer for Na Fianna AC for her entire life right up to her untimely passing in summer 2021. Na Fianna AC are typical of many rural sporting clubs who have a large catchment area which combines rural North Kildare and South Meath taking in Enfield, Rathmoylan, Johnstownbridge and Baconstown. The race, known affectionately by club-members as simply "Bob's race" (and now Mary's) is a fitting tribute to commemorate his contribution to this sport. Indeed, not many road races are held in the same affection by runners as Bob's Race with runners returning back every year to sample the course and the wonderful atmosphere again. More rarely heard is runners reminiscing of running this race 15 or 20 years ago! What a fantastic endorsement of the race. Indeed, we remember the days 18 years ago when this race was held in the village of Rathmoylan about 10 miles from the current venue. In those days the race was deemed a success if 75 to 100 runners made the start line. What a testimony to the hard work of Na Fianna AC today's race is! The weather was perfect for road racing - hardly any wind and warm temperatures - with bright hazy sunshine.
The race is part of the Popup Races KIA Race Series. The race is a fixture on the Meath AAI Road Race calendar despite the fact that the race is run completely in County Kildare. The current route for the race has stayed the same over the past few years. However previous to that the race was held in Enfield and also Rathmoylan in County Meath. The race starts on the busy Enfield to Edenderry road and this requires a big effort from stewards and marshalls. However, as always, the event was a resounding success with personal bests and great runs from many of the participants. The course is very fast and flat - it is a one loop course which is left-handed in terms of turns.
Our photographer on the night was Martin Murphy from North Westmeath Athletic Club - thanks Martin!

Shown here is the Chinese 180 calligraphy course description that is part of "The Three Perfections: Calligraphy, Poetry, and Painting" exhibit, located in the Read & Relax area on the first floor of Swem Library at the College of William & Mary. The exhibit was funded by the William & Mary Confucius Institute. The exhibit is on display from April 12-May 28, 2012.
The following is a transcription of the label text presented here:
Chinese 180
Chinese Calligraphy: Aesthetics and Practice
Professor Liu’s course introduces students to the art and practice of Chinese calligraphy, covering the history, principle and aesthetic values of Chinese characters and calligraphy. For many students, the hands-on practice with brush writing is their first experience writing Chinese characters, as no knowledge of Chinese is required for taking the course. Students in her course had ten hours of classroom instruction before producing the works on display here.

This scene depicts a golf course green with a path running along side it. The model is built at Lego Technic minifigure scale. It features to minifigures with custom torso stickers. The scene includes a golf card, 2 golf bags, and a tree by a sand trap. Hope you enjoy.
This was a shot that I took several years ago during a fire training course.
It was taken with 35mm film and I scanned it in to work it over in photoshop - just darkened it 3x and hit the backlight a little.
Did you bring your goodies to make smores?!
Curanto
Patagonian rain water.
Notes: A recreation of a Chilean curanto, in which meat and potatoes are wrapped in this prickly rhubarb varietal leaf (unlike rhubarb native to N. America, this rhubarb is not poisonous) and buried between dirt and hot rocks and embers to cook. The cup in the bucket contains a reduction of the broth from ingredients used in a curanto. Stuck among the twigs is a little disk of potato starch cake.
