Before I attended the annual Grass Valley Fly-In and Open House last month held at Nevada County Airport I had never seen outside of Oshkosh Wisconsin of amateur-built aircraft or "homebuilts" because they are typically built in people's garages and basements. There were many many homebuilts at the open house, so I got to see them up close first-hand. This image is of a Hatz CB-1 that was on display at the airport that day. Technically the Wright Brothers 1903 Wright Flyer was a homebuilt & the Wright Brothers homebuilders because Orville and Wilbur didn’t depend on a factory to build their planes, successful and unsuccessful. So homebuilding has been a practice since the early days of American aviation and in 1953 the Experimental Amateur-Built Aircraft or EAA organization was born. While at an international Pathfinder Camporee in Oshkosh Wisconsin in 2005 my son, oldest daughter & I visited the EAA Museum there never imagining that 18 years later I’d meet some members in remote former gold rush town of Grass Valley California in Northern California. #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot #tamractales @mpbcom @kehcamera @visitgrassvalley @nevadacountyca #nevadacounty #nevadacountyairport #omd #olympus #microfourthirds #micro43 #micro43photography @visitcalifornia

Busy homebuilding.

As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.

Lucky to have found another nest in the garden. This female (I think?) has been busy plastering up the entrance. The male has been scraping bark from an adjacent oak and bringing that to the nest too. I will keep you posted on progress.

Many thanks to those who have taken the time to view, fave and/or comment on some of my images.

Pileated Woodpecker (Hylatomus Pileatus)

A female (top) & male Violaceous Euphonia (Euphonia violacea) participate in nest building very early in the morning. Another of My-Backyard-Birds.

This male flicker was making sure the home would be just right for the Mrs. His spray of woodchips was fun to watch...DIY carpenter.

This pileated woodpecker was working on a new home and hoping to attract a mate with his homebuilding skills,

EAA AirVenture Oshkosh (formerly the EAA Annual Convention and Fly-In) is an annual gathering of aviation enthusiasts held each summer at Wittman Regional Airport (43°59′04″N 088°33′25″W) in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, United States. The Southern part of the show grounds as well as Camp Scholler are located in the town of Nekimi. The airshow is arranged by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), an international organization based in Oshkosh, and is the largest of its kind in the world. The show lasts a week, usually beginning on the last Monday in July. During the gathering, the airport's control tower is the busiest in the world. EAA was founded in Hales Corners, Wisconsin in 1953 by Paul Poberezny, who originally started the organization in the basement of his home for builders and restorers of recreational aircraft. Although homebuilding is still a large part of the organization's activities, it has grown to include almost every aspect of recreational and military aviation, and aeronautics. The first EAA fly-in was held in September 1953 at what is now Timmerman Field as a small part of the Milwaukee Air Pageant, fewer than 150 people registered as visitors the first year and only a handful of airplanes attended the event. In 1959, the EAA fly-in grew too large for the Air Pageant and moved to Rockford, Illinois. In 1970, when it outgrew its facilities at the Rockford airport, it moved to Oshkosh, Wisconsin. For many years the official name of the event was The EAA Annual Convention and Fly-In. In 1998, the name was changed to AirVenture Oshkosh, but many regular attendees still call it as The Oshkosh Airshow or just Oshkosh. For many years, access to the flight line was restricted to EAA members. In 1997, the fee structure for the show was changed allowing all visitors access to the entire grounds. EAA AirVenture holds nearly 1,000 forums and workshops.

Although homebuilding is still a large part of the organization's activities, it has grown to include almost every aspect of recreational and military aviation, and aeronautics. The first EAA fly-in was held in September 1953 at what is now Timmerman Field as a small part of the Milwaukee Air Pageant, fewer than 150 people registered as visitors the first year and only a handful of airplanes attended the event. In 1959, the EAA fly-in grew too large for the Air Pageant and moved to Rockford, Illinois. In 1970, when it outgrew its facilities at the Rockford airport, it moved to Oshkosh, Wisconsin. For many years the official name of the event was The EAA Annual Convention and Fly-In. In 1998, the name was changed to AirVenture Oshkosh, but many regular attendees still call it as The Oshkosh Airshow or just Oshkosh. For many years, access to the flight line was restricted to EAA members. In 1997, the fee structure for the show was changed allowing all visitors access to the entire grounds. EAA AirVenture holds nearly 1,000 forums and workshops.

EAA AirVenture Oshkosh (formerly the EAA Annual Convention and Fly-In) is an annual gathering of aviation enthusiasts held each summer at Wittman Regional Airport (43°59′04″N 088°33′25″W) in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, United States. The Southern part of the show grounds as well as Camp Scholler are located in the town of Nekimi. The airshow is arranged by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), an international organization based in Oshkosh, and is the largest of its kind in the world. The show lasts a week, usually beginning on the last Monday in July. During the gathering, the airport's control tower is the busiest in the world. EAA was founded in Hales Corners, Wisconsin in 1953 by Paul Poberezny, who originally started the organization in the basement of his home for builders and restorers of recreational aircraft.

I went to the Homebuilding and Renovating Show at the NEC and this lady was working on one of the stands, she posed but when I quickly moved to shoot something else she jokingly said I had missed my window of opportunity. But I think I got a better shot.
