“The spring came suddenly; the rains stopped, the days grew noticeably longer, and the afternoon light felt powdery, as if it might blow away.”

I saw a stream of mopeds and cycles with food delivery bags/boxes streaming out of a trading estate in Woodford, so there's a dark kitchen somewhere on the site.

 

I've not seen this type of fat small wheeled electric bike before (there were several) but it seems to be a popular choice.

 

If you've not come across dark kitchens before here's an explanation:

This is actually from last falcon "season", towards the end of the parental duties. You can read the "Z" on his bracelet so I'll finish that part of his story: The tag reads "02Z". The locals just spelled it out "Tuzee" and of course it has stuck. He continues to amaze. The action really heats up with food deliveries and flight training once the happy couple have their chicks, so exciting times will be coming again.

Here comes another delivery from sticks-R-us. Great Egret at O'Fallon Park in St Louis.

While out sitting in some cattails waiting to take some photos of the birds on the lake, this female Red-Winged Blackbird landed in front of me with her insect breakfast delivery.

She kept bringing in all sorts of different insects for her babies who were well hidden in the nest.

 

Depending on the season, their diet changes. In winter, they'll eat mostly plant material.

 

During the nesting season, they switch to a more insect-rich diet and lower amounts of seeds.

 

The young are altricial and at 11 to 14 days old, they leave the nest but remain within the territory for two more weeks. The female feeds them, sometimes helped by the male, for as long as 3 more weeks after they have left the nest territory.

Someone was more excited than me for the delivery. :)

 

“There's never been a true war that wasn't fought between two sets of people who were certain they were in the right. The really dangerous people believe they are doing whatever they are doing solely and only because it is without question the right thing to do. And that is what makes them dangerous.”

La Br183-500 di RailAdventure è qui ripresa nei pressi di Breitenfurt (D), al traino di tre Br193 di Railpool fresche di consegna.

 

RailAdventure Br183-500 is seen here near Breitenfurt, Germany, whilst working a delivery run from München with three brand-new Railpool Br193s in tow.

Scale model bicycles, this delivery cycle is only about two inches tall, limiting its cargo carrying capacity

Sandwich Tern brings food for its youngster

The gas station in this pic is at a place called Woodside,we came across it on one of our road trips.lt looks like the reason it closed down is because a little way to the back of it was an lnterstate which must have sucked all the passing trade away from it .Such a shame.l have no idea if it is still standing .The tanker truck was in a town called Delta, it was in a lot with many other vehicles which looked like you could buy to renovate or, as in my case take pictures and make them up into other pictures.

AZCR GP9R 3413, GP7 2279, and GP7 2164 lead the new pair of GP38-3s to supplement the Arizona Central's fleet across the majestic SOB Canyon as they approach their destination in Clarkdale, AZ. With seven locomotives on the property now, the three first generation Geeps somehow continue to be the primary power it seems with one of the new units being tossed into the mix sometimes.

Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, UK, March 2021

Fuji X-E2 plus Helios 44M-7 wide-open. All of the pre-WWII houses in my village have (or originally had) fireplaces. Many new homes too. To reduce the spiralling costs for gas and electricity, a lot of us get our wood burners working again. "The market", of course, has its own ideas when it comes to the price of firewood. It is not cheap at the moment and as long as you don't have your own supplies, burning wood will not save you any money. Mind you, there is always room for creative procurement. A neighbour of mine is collecting old wooden palettes...

I was surprised this afternoon by a delivery of bakery treats from a good friend! Holy smokes, were they ever tasty. Thank you so much, Kerry!
