The Tüshaus mill is a water mill near Dorsten-Deuten in North Rhine-Westphalia. The mill is located on the southern edge of the forest area of Üfter Mark, where the water of the Hammbach River from Rhade is stowed to the mill pond.

 

The history of the Tüshaus-Hof, to which the mill belongs, can be traced back to 1382. The lords of Lembeck, who held the water law in their territory, leased a whale mill driven by the water of the Hammbach in 1615 to a certain Mr. Tuschhaus.

 

However, the mill was not the first building on this site, as it was built on older foundations. Sheep were mainly kept in the extensive heathland surrounding the area. The wool was rolled in the Tüshaus mill by a hammer mill and sold as felt material to the region's cloth makers for further processing. The billing books include customers from Wesel, Recklinghausen, Westerholt, Dülmen, Münster and Dinxperlo.

 

The mill had already been increased in 1752 and expanded by a second mill wheel, so that since 1754 it also served the tenant Joan-Heinrich Tüshaus as an oil mill. The oil was obtained mainly from the rapeseed and linseed of the surrounding fields. In 1880 Albert Brosthaus was the Ölmüller, followed by Dumpe and Schetter. The old plants of the oil mill were replaced in 1914 by a modern hydraulic oil mill, which pressed the oil out of the seeds with 350 atü. The operation of the oil mill was discontinued around 1948 for economic reasons.

Happy Slider's Sunday!

This was a daytime image altered in PSE.

 

"Adolph Sutro, the self-made millionaire who designed Sutro Heights and later the second Cliff House, developed the amazing Sutro Baths in 1894. With his special interest in natural history and marine studies, he constructed an ocean pool aquarium among the rocks north of the Cliff House. Sutro then expanded his ocean front complex by constructing a massive public bathhouse that covered three acres and boasted impressive engineering and artistic details."

Little Egret - Egretta garzetta

  

The little egret (Egretta garzetta) is a species of small heron in the family Ardeidae. The genus name comes from the Provençal French Aigrette, egret a diminutive of Aigron, heron. The species epithet garzetta is from the Italian name for this bird, garzetta or sgarzetta.

 

It is a white bird with a slender black beak, long black legs and, in the western race, yellow feet. As an aquatic bird, it feeds in shallow water and on land, consuming a variety of small creatures. It breeds colonially, often with other species of water birds, making a platform nest of sticks in a tree, bush or reed bed. A clutch of bluish-green eggs is laid and incubated by both parents. The young fledge at about six weeks of age.

 

Its breeding distribution is in wetlands in warm temperate to tropical parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. A successful colonist, its range has gradually expanded north, with stable and self-sustaining populations now present in the United Kingdom.

 

It first appeared in the UK in significant numbers in 1989 and first bred in Dorset in 1996

 

In warmer locations, most birds are permanent residents; northern populations, including many European birds, migrate to Africa and southern Asia to over-winter there. The birds may also wander north in late summer after the breeding season, and their tendency to disperse may have assisted in the recent expansion of the bird's range. At one time common in Western Europe, it was hunted extensively in the 19th century to provide plumes for the decoration of hats and became locally extinct in northwestern Europe and scarce in the south. Around 1950, conservation laws were introduced in southern Europe to protect the species and their numbers began to increase. By the beginning of the 21st century the bird was breeding again in France, the Netherlands, Ireland and Britain. It has also begun to colonise the New World; it was first seen in Barbados in 1954 and first bred there in 1994. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the bird's global conservation status as being of least concern..

  

Expanding Upwards...

 

Monday morning I woke up and looked out the window and noticed a heavy cloud cover and the sun was just starting to break the horizon. i could see the hint of a golden yellow sunrise and hoped i wouldn't miss it.

 

I made my way down to the park and as I crossed the tracks I looked at the rising sun; the colours were enhanced by the dark cloud filled sky above. I had to snap off a few quick shots to capture what I was seeing. I think this shot does it justice.

The castle has only been partially rebuilt since its demolition in the 17th and 18th centuries.

 

The earliest castle structure was built before 1214 and later expanded into two castles circa 1294; however, in 1537, a lightning bolt destroyed the upper castle. The present structures had been expanded by 1650, before damage by later wars and fires. In 1764, another lightning bolt caused a fire which destroyed some rebuilt sections.

Not having been in a shop, to buy anything for a very long time, I was commenting how I missed having fresh flowers in the house. Today my lovely husband came home with a pretty bouquet of flowers for me.

Such a dark dismal day that I had a little fiddle with a small candle holder that I never use and gave it a twirl in Photoshop .

On this day last year I was in Bath (in comments) meeting our friends Jan and Alan from Hampshire for lunch - a double birthday celebration - we haven't seen them since because of Covid 😕)

I must admit that I haven't been much of a fan of this sort of abstract work and so haven't ever tried it before. Looking at all of the cool images the group has made to meet this challenge I'm beginning to change my mind. Always fun to expand one's horizons!

If you recall, I was given a double sided jigsaw of the moon for Christmas ( in comments) . I said I'd give it a month, but it proved to be infuriating difficult , mainly because it was poorly made and the pieces began to peel off in layers. Not one to be put off though because of having given up last week , I ordered another and completes it in two afternoons - or have I ? ;)

Taken on my patio and collected from my garden. These dwarf sunflowers just give and give.

Despite its name, the small skipper is not our smallest skipper, although it is smaller than the large skipper: the other skipper likely to occur in gardens.

Like its larger cousin, the small skipper is often found basking on vegetation, or making short buzzing flights among tall grass stems.

It is a small, bright orange, moth-like butterfly that flies rapidly and often has its wings closed at rest. It is less boldly marked on its upperwings than the large skipper.

This butterfly is widespread in southern Britain and is expanding its range northwards. There is a single generation each year.

Eggs are laid in late July and early August. The caterpillars emerge some two weeks later.

What they eat:

Adults nectar at flowers. The caterpillars feed on Yorkshire fog grass.

Identifying features:

Natural habitats: Flower border Herb garden Lawn/grassy area Woodland area

 

We had a good 2 to 3 " of snowfall overnight, but by the time I had the chance to capture this from my back room window, it had started to thaw.

Hurricane Hill trail, Olympic National Park, Washington

 

It felt like a dream world, standing atop a ridge at 5500 feet/1676 meters after snowshoeing up from the Hurricane Ridge winter parking area. Breathtaking views expanded in every direction, including the entire Olympic mountain range, the Salish Sea and across to Canada, and a river of fog running through the valleys below. And though the forecast was for clouds and precipitation, the mountains all day were bathed in the most beautiful light.

 

It was a snowshoe adventure that had been on my list for a long time, and the logistics and the weather finally came together to make it happen. And it was a day that I had to ask myself more than a few times if it was real, because I could not have dreamed it any better than that. It will take me awhile to really put the day into words but wanted to share an image from it. (Although even a panorama captures only a small part of the view.)

The title of this post is borrowed from the Iron & Wine song "Call it Dreaming"

Some mono images using Norwich Cathedral and varying lighting conditions.

This photograph taken inside the Wisconsin Central’s diesel shop at North Fond du Lac shows two recent arrivals getting a mechanical check-over before being added to their then rapidly expanding fleet of SD45s.

 

The WC had already purchased 21 of these big EMDs from the Santa Fe in 1993, but due to increasing traffic levels they found it necessary to add more power in late 1994 into early 1995.

 

The ATSF 5327 would become the WC 6599 and the ATSF 5400 the WC 6629. – The additional road units that came to the WC from the ATSF this time around included 33 SD45s, 6 F45s and the one FP45. - September 6th, 1994 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
