While walking along the edge of the forest road I noticed this bird digging in a ditch, he/she didnt seem to mind me being there, just paused to check me out then hopped into a tree until I had passed by.
Labour Corps digging, Western Front, during World War I. This photograph shows five men of one of the Labour Corps groups, probably the South African Native Labour Contingent (SANLC) digging sand under the supervision of a native NCO. The purpose of their digging is unclear but it is possible that they were filling the ever-necessary sandbags.
The Labour Corps included many non-European groups such as the South Africans, Egyptians, Chinese, Cape Coloured and Indian Corps. They were not only restricted from contact with white Europeans but were also segregated into different racially-determined Corps.

Progress in the middle of Sunday's digging.
Installing a rain garden at the bungalow. First step: dig out ~9 inches of soil in the ~100 sq ft garden bed. 6 inches of that will be replaced (with compost + soil, then a layer of mulch).
Since the snow itself is taller than he is, Tuck resorts to following on our heels and pawing at chunks of snow.
Three Tawny Mining Bees were setting up home in the garden last night. Two were digging holes and the third was flying round, checking us out and then landing, sometimes doing a little bee dance. By the time it was too dark to watch anymore one bee had worked really hard and dug a good size hole, the second had excavated several little shallow holes and the third was still on lookout. Unfortunately all this activity started when it was already quite dull in the garden.
A very big enclosed digging bed that the kids at Tolworth Infant School just love! www.creativeout.co.uk/case-studies/playground-designs-for...
The crew of a Wilmington & Western express passenger train digs furiously to free their little 4-4-0 from the fresh snow in which she has become mired, just short of the Greenbank Station. This was a 2011 photo charter organized by Lerro Productions and we had some unexpected photo ops before the charter even began. Eventually, a front-end loader was called in to plow the entire station area, and a diesel-electric locomotive was brought in to assist the train between photo locations. The show must go on, and as you'll see in subsequent photos, it surely did.
Memorial Day weekend - tried to pull out the bushes, but the tow strap broke. Used the chainsaw to cut them off, then the hard job of digging out the roots. One was a boxwood, and the roots were quite large and deep and entangled.
A small army of laborers picks away at the snow- and ice-encrusted switches at Tower A, just north of North Station.
Fun shot of Part I of our meal at Dayali.

Boo the storm. It rained mid-week and all the lifts stopped, the mountain was effectively closed for the day. Some of the boys decided to build a kicker (a jump) in a nearby field.
I sat and watched and took photos of them being rad, and not so rad. We then spent a good few hours in a smoky Austrian bar on the piste, listening to absolutely AWFUL europop, eating wurst and drinking hot chocolate, looking at each other and looking out the window waiting for the rain to stop.
This is Lee, he is a right bender.
Sometimes I feel shy about posting pics of my twins. It's just too easy to take pictures that show "life" in my eyes - they just serve it up for me. I think I should have to work harder to take nice photos... ;)
A number of neighbors joined us last weekend to salvage several plants and landscaping materials from the site of the future Brooklyn and Roosevelt light rail stations. The salvage was in advance of our demolition work at the site. The plants, including Barberry, Nandina and Boxwood, were available on a first-come first-served basis.
