A westbound South Shore train is coming into the reverse curve on 11th St. The front and rear of the train can be seen now that several houses have been torn down for the double track project.
Here’s one of the regulars from the Lower Rio Grande Valley from this past week. The Golden-fronted Woodpecker is high on my list of must see birds when in south Texas and this one performed beautifully.

Manif "contre la loi sécurité globale à Paris et lutte contre la précarité" qui était organisée de la Porte des Lilas à la Place de la République.
J'ai rejoint la manif à pied (un peu avant 14 h, heure de départ officielle du cortège), en remontant la rue St Fargeau puis en prenant le bd Gambetta. J'ai été sidérée par le nombre de policiers tout le long de mon trajet, une véritable armée. Entre 13h30 et 14h, rue Saint Fargeau, des centaines de gendarmes, et plus d'une centaines de cars de gendarmes qui étaient garés (moteur ronflant) cul à cul tout le long de la rue St Fargeau. A partir du bd Gambetta, des centaines de CRS formaient une double file de chaque côté du boulevard. Ils laissaient passer les passants qui visiblement rejoignaient la manif (et qui allaient repartir dans l'autre sens avec le cortège). C'était impressionnant, toute cette armée policière en tenue robocop, et important à bien avoir en tête pour comprendre la suite...
Quand j'ai appris en effet par la suite qu'il y avait eu des "casseurs" bd Gambetta, la manipulation était évidente : c'était IMPOSSIBLE, avec cette armée de policiers en place une demi-heure avant le départ, de casser, sans leur "accord", une vitrine ou une voiture, alors même que les forces de police étaient assez nombreuses (des centaines) pour former une double haie d'honneur tout le long du bd Gambetta !
On devine évidemment l'objectif de cette manipulation (parce que cela en est une) pour la police, la préfecture et l'Etat : on communique à fond sur des "casseurs" en ne parlant que de "violences" de manifestants (les manifestants n'étaient pas violents) au lieu évidemment de parler des violences policières, de la loi de "sécurité globale", des bavures policières, des yeux crevés de manifestants... ce pourquoi on était venu manifester. Une diversion grossière.
Et je ne parle même pas de la suite : on enfume les manifestants avec des gaz lacrymo, on les "nasse", on les oblige à quitter le cortège par les petites rues adjacentes (impossible de revenir ensuite). Et on communique en donnant des chiffres sous-évalués du nombre réel de manifestants pour dire que la mobilisation s'affaiblit. Tout cela largement relayé par certains gros médias très complaisants qui s'égosillent sur les "casseurs".
The Tomb of Akbar the Great is an important Mughal architectural masterpiece, built 1605–1613, set in 48 Ha (119 acres) of grounds in Sikandra, a suburb of Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Male golden-fronted woodpecker showing off the red patch on his crown. Light filtering through the leaves in the background created a pleasant bokeh effect for me.

We have been having some of the strangest weather lately, strange even for Calgary. A few days ago after a torrential rain, my daughter came in through the front door exclaiming that a rainbow was just outside. My front door is right behind me and this is what appeared.
My wife gave me a suggestion for a better foreground but I new that the rainbow would be gone in a few minutes. After a couple of different compositions, I figured the pot of gold would sit in the back yard of one house and the living room of the other. Sometimes luck follows the fortunate

Dawn in Lariimer County, Colorado. I snuck out of the house early one morning while visiting recently and enjoyed a drive on nearby country roads.
Beautiful sunset on the front range of the Colorado Rocky Mountains. .

Candid street photography taken in Glasgow, Scotland. If you wondered what was going on in my previous 'Too Many Street Photographers...' shot, then this is the answer! See the previous upload here: flic.kr/p/tT69Sn
I am not entirely certain that shooting this interesting Glasgow character, dancing to a street performer, from behind would result in a great shot but I love that I caught him from the front with another street shooter in the frame!

on our way home from Key West we passed over a storm front over Indiana-it was a great change in perspective at 30000 feet.
Yesterday afternoon my friend Dave Waddington found this White-fronted Goose within walking distance of both our houses. But I was busy cooking Sunday dinner yesterday, and this morning I had my first Covid jab booked, so I did not get chance to see it until this afternoon. I uploaded a photo of an adult White-fronted Goose recently with prominent black belly bars ( www.flickr.com/photos/timmelling/51001666498/in/dateposted/ ), but this one is a young bird, hatched in 2020 and lacking the belly stripes. It was feeding with a flock of Greylags near a small reservoir in South Yorkshire. I included a Greylag Goose here just to show the size difference. The White-front on the left weighs about 2.5kg (length 72cm, wingspan 148cm), whereas the Greylag on the right weighs about 3.6kg (length 82cm, wingspan 164cm). Female Greylags are a bit smaller, weighing about 3kg, but to my eyes the size difference between these two seems greater than the figures suggest.
There has been an unusually large influx of White-fronted Geese this winter and birds have been turning up in lots of unusual places. Two races of White-front winter in Britain; Greenland White-fronts which winter mainly in Scotland, and Russian White-fronts that winter mainly in the south. So living in Yorkshire means I don't get chance to see them very often near home. This one is a Russian bred bird, identifiable by its pink bill. Greenland bred bird have orange bills, though both races have orange legs. They get the name from the white patch around the bill.
