I miss it all so much already.
The core of our home galaxy, the Milky Way, backlights one of 16 remaining semaphore blades along the Raton and Glorietta Subdivisions. The WB signal indicates a clear; however, the next train would pass through here almost 12 hours after this photo was taken: stark contrast to the traffic volumes this route used to see.
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.
...from a visit to Buckley's Hole, Bribie Island. (Buckley's Hole Conservation Park is situated in the south-west corner of Bribie Island, the northern-most sand island in Moreton Bay, some 50 kilometres north of Brisbane. The park covers an area of 87.7 hectares and contains a freshwater lagoon, woodland, open forest and beach. It is this diversity of habitat that has led to such a large number of bird species being recorded in this small area, the present total standing at 270.)

Andrew Jackson Intermediate School was an intermediate school located on the east side of Detroit, Michigan which operated from 1928 to 2007. Nearly all Detroit citizen know about this school, but its history is slowly being forgotten.
Andrew Jackson Intermediate School was designed by B.C. Wetzel & Co. and was built in 1928. Detroit Urbex highlights this school as “one of Detroit's more unique schools in terms of design”. The layout is fairly typical of school buildings designed in the 1920s. The school held up a capacity of 2,200 students.
Throughout its history, Andrew Jackson Intermediate School operated as an intermediate school and a middle school for Detroit Public School. Overall the school was closed in 2007 due to low enrollment and low test scores. Today the school now sits abandoned.
At home. We usually have one visiting the neighbourhood this time of year. But I've seen at least three in the area. Such a special guest at home in Humpty Doo, NT.

NS 175 is southbound over the top of Braswell Mountain as the manifest passes under the intermediates between Finch and Rodgers. The poor crew probably got sick of me flashing them but as they were in front of NS 223 with the 8105, they were my test train.

Location- Jorhat, Assam, India
Another attempt at capturing a bird in flight. While walking near Rupertswood Lake in Sunbury I spotted this bird sitting on a branch in the water and just waited for it to take off. From the sequence of about 12 shots I was pretty happy with this one.

This Intermediate Egret In breeding plumage was foraging for food and as I approached he started to dance.
I can not help but love the birds that I photograph. I was very excited to see this bird perform like he did.
Captured at Cotton Tree, Maroochydore, Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia.

An Intermediate Egret in the shallows of Pine River on Sunday afternoon. These birds have long legs! This is equivalent to us standing in water just above the knees. Very inquisitive species. This one came close enough to check me out and wasn’t phased by my presence.
