Wikipedia: The red-wattled lapwing (Vanellus indicus) is an Asian lapwing or large plover, a wader in the family Charadriidae. Like other lapwings they are ground birds that are incapable of perching. Their characteristic loud alarm calls are indicators of human or animal movements and the sounds have been variously rendered as did he do it or pity to do it leading to the colloquial name of did-he-do-it bird. Usually seen in pairs or small groups and usually not far from water they sometimes form large aggregations in the non-breeding season (winter). They nest in a ground scrape laying three to four camouflaged eggs. Adults near the nest fly around, diving at potential predators while calling noisily. The cryptically patterned chicks hatch and immediately follow their parents to feed, hiding by lying low on the ground or in the grass when threatened.

Conservation status: Least Concern
(Note: I was trying to get chick and parent in the same frame, but the parent tries to lead you away from the chicks as a strategy of defense. If you happen to get too close both parents will continuously dive bomb you.)

It needs only a few days of warm and sunny weather and another one of my favourite flowers is popp(y)ing up!

Utah Transit Authority installed GCI signals for train operators in quiet zones. The signal flashes on and off as the gates are dropping or rising, and display a solid lunar indication when they have dropped and the crossing is secure.
Union Pacific did not install them, but UTA's GCIs are activated in locations where UP's Provo, Lynndyl, and Salt Lake subdivisions parallel the UTA's commuter rail track. Here a Grand Junction to Salt Lake City OCS crosses 7th West in Provo, Utah on August 28, 2025.
A dial test indicator consists of a gauge; on the gauge is a pin level mounted on a spring. When the pin contacts a surface, pressure forces the pin lever up, causing the dial gauge to move. Numbers marked on the perimeter of the dial test indicator display the amount of pressure applied to the pin lever.
Just a log on a beach by the path through dunes to the carpark. Across the water and beyond the sandspit is Warrington.
Today a pole established our region of Otago as one of the most friendly places on Earth from visitor ratings. Perth in Scotland was number 1 and Taiwan, Brazil, USA and others also featured.
So I'm hoping for more comments than I can poke a stick at :)
The Alligator Song
Everybody's getting cancer
At a geometrical rate
Maybe it's something you drank or breathed
Maybe it's something you ate
Perhaps this doesn't concern you
Hey, we've all gotta go sometime
But maybe I can tell you something
To make you change your mind
(Chorus)
The alligator dicks are shriveling up
Soon they'll all be through
Yeah, the alligator dicks are shrinking fast
And it will happen to you
It will happen to you, boys
the alligator dicks are shriveling up
and it will happen to you
They're an indicator species
Like canaries in the mine
They're the first to kick the bucket
When things might otherwise seem fine
So let's be frank and honest
As the situation begs
Boys, what are you gonna do
About that thing between your legs
(Chorus)
I'm not beating around the bush
I'm making you a promise
Say goodbye to Long Dong Silver
Hello to Tiny Thomas
You can forget about Viagra
Boys, what I mean is
It's all a matter of minutiae
When you've got a half-inch penis
(Chorus)
PCBs in the water
Pesticides in the ground
Radiation in the wind
There's poison all around
So if you care about your love life
And that good old whoop-dee-doo
We've got to stop pollution, boys
That's what i'm telling you
(Chorus)
