“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:

Aveiro, Portugal: The street on the channel with the restaurants

The delivery riders return on a wet day to collect more food for the local population.

 

Places like these are open to the public once again after lockdown(s) but folk have got a taste for it being delivered now, so I expect these riders are now part of the new normal.

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.

This mom is nursing babies, so she's out at all times of the day looking for food to keep her strength up. Hope she enjoys her pizza!

Yes, this is a composite.

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.”

Sandwich Tern brings food for its youngster

A package arrived today with some almost 'last minute' Christmas presents, I always do my Christmas shopping 'just in time'. No, the cat isn't the present, although the fluffball has quite a lot of fans among family and friends, mainly because he is probably the most open-minded and easy-going cat on this planet. The first words of visitors usually aren't 'how are you doing', not even 'hello', but 'where is Tofu' ! :)

Crawds N Rods Car Show - Elgin, OK

I wasn't expecting much when I went out on this rainy, 39° F morning, so I was pleasantly surprised to hear the Kingfisher calling my name with an incoming delivery. Of course this is heavily cropped like all of my Kingfisher shots.

Most of the customers at this inexpensive eatery are couriers, delivery riders, and other manual workers. When the counter seats along the storefront are full, some move to the pavement, where cardboard boxes already in place serve as tables on a worn and dirty surface.

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...
