Green Line Running Day at the Epping Ongar Railway 24 February 2019. RMC1507 (507CLT) alongside RT3228 (KYY957) makes a comparison between the 1960 and 1950s version of the Green Line double-decker. Weymann bodied the latter, a 1950 AEC Regent III while Park Royal of course bodied the Routemaster, new in 1963.
I think green is beautiful!

Happy Green Bokeh Wednesday to you all! I think the plants save a special shade of green for the arrival of Spring, don't you?
Thanks as always for your comments, faves, invites, and inspiration!
The green bee-eater (Merops orientalis), also known as little green bee-eater, is a near passerine bird in the bee-eater family. It is resident but prone to seasonal movements and is found widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal and the Gambia to Ethiopia, the Nile valley, western Arabia and Asia through India to Vietnam. They are mainly insect eaters and they are found in grassland, thin scrub and forest often quite far from water. Several regional plumage variations are known and several subspecies have been named.
Like other species in the genus, bee-eaters predominantly eat insects, especially bees, wasps and ants, which are caught in the air by sorties from an open perch. Before swallowing prey, a bee-eater removes stings and breaks the exoskeleton of the prey by repeatedly thrashing it on the perch. Migration is not known but they make seasonal movements in response to rainfall. These birds are somewhat sluggish in the mornings and may be found huddled next to each other on wires sometimes with their bills tucked in their backs well after sunrise. They sand-bathe more frequently than other bee-eater species and will sometimes bathe in water by dipping into water in flight. They are usually seen in small groups and often roost communally in large numbers (200-300). The birds move excitedly at the roost site and call loudly, often explosively dispersing before settling back to the roost tree.[12] The little green bee-eater is also becoming common in urban and sub-urban neighborhoods, and has been observed perching on television antennae, only to launch into a brief, zig-zag flight formation to catch an insect, then return to the same perch and consume the meal. This behaviour is generally observed between the hours of 7:00 and 8:00am, and after 4:00pm.
The breeding season is from March to June. Unlike many bee-eaters, these are often solitary nesters, making a tunnel in a sandy bank. The breeding pairs are often joined by helpers. They nest in hollows in vertical mud banks. The nest tunnel that they construct can run as much as 5 feet long and the 3-5 eggs are laid on the bare ground in the cavity at the end of the tunnel. The eggs are very spherical and glossy white. Clutch size varies with rainfall and insect food density. Both sexes incubate. The eggs hatch asynchronously with an incubation period of about 14 days and the chicks grow fledge in 3 to 4 weeks and in the fledging stage show a reduction in body weight.

This subspecies is considered a variant or western form of Common Pondhawk . Though many people consider it a valid species, there is evidence that suggests it intergrades with the eastern form. It is common in the extreme parts of the western Texas panhandle where it does occur with Eastern Pondhawk. Nothing has been written on what mechanisms may serve to identify these nearly identical species to each other where they occur together. Western Pondhawk is often seen perching on the ground similar to clubtails, for which they may be mistaken due to their green color. They are capable and fierce predators in the air, taking small to large prey at will.

FIELD MARK-The Green Peafowl, is a large galliform bird that is found in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. It is also known as the Java Peafowl, but this term is properly used to describe the nominate subspecies endemic to the island of Java. It is the closest relative of the Indian Peafowl or Blue Peafowl Pavo cristatus, which is mostly found on the Indian subcontinent.
