The Intermediate Egret is a medium-sized (56-72 cm), white egret with a yellow bill, yellow iris and black legs and feet. The bare facial skin at the gape terminates below the eye, whereas in the similar but larger Great Egret, it extends slightly behind the eye.
The Intermediate Egret prefers mainly inland habitats with emergent aquatic vegetation such as pools, river margins, lakes, swamps, rice fields and fish ponds. It is found less often in coastal habitats. It feeds mainly on fish, frogs, insects and crustaceans, which it catches by quietly standing and watching, or by slowly walking. Although it nests colonially, it may be found feeding either alone or in small groups.

FORT BRAGG, N.C. – Completed in April 2012, the new Irwin Intermediate School at Fort Bragg opened just in time for the 2012-2013 school year. Construction on the $14.9 million, 112,025-square-foot facility began in 2010 and was managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District. The new school replaces the original Irwin building built in 1962. The school was formally dedicated with an opening ceremony on Sept. 27, 2012. It was named in memory of Lt. Gen. Stafford Leroy Irwin, who served as the post commander from 1946 to 1948. Located off of Normandy Drive, near Butler and Murray elementary schools, the new Irwin School serves 725 students in grades two through five. Amenities include art, music, and general purpose classrooms, computer labs, a playground, gymnasium, and multipurpose rooms with a stage and kitchen. Within the past few years, the Savannah District has completed more than $100 million in family support projects at Fort Bragg, including schools and child development centers. Between 2013 and 2020, another $90 million is budgeted for continued school development on Fort Bragg. USACE photo by Tracy Robillard, Sept. 12, 2012.

Seen about a year after delivery, First Bristol 35148 SN65OMS was delivered with 9 other Streetdecks liveried for the 90 service and wearing a red front. A headway reduction saw it painted with a neutral sky blue front as seen here in Sep 2016, but it would soon gain a third colour scheme in about a year when it gained Mendip Explorer colours.

We crossed the Andes by bus travelling from Buenos Aires to Santiago de Chile. I think the road in this image gives a good indication of how long this section of the trip took!
The Andes are the world's longest continental mountain range. It is a continuous chain of highland along the western coast of South America. The range is over 7,000 km (4,300 mi) long, 200 km (120 mi) to 700 km (430 mi) wide (widest between 18° to 20°S latitude), and of an average height of about 4,000 m (13,000 ft).
Over its length the Andean range is at several locations split into several ranges, often two great ranges, named Cordillera Oriental and the Cordillera Occidental, often separated by an intermediate depression. The Andes mountains extend over seven countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela, some of which are known as Andean States.
The Andes mountain range is the highest mountain range outside Asia. The highest peak, Aconcagua, rises to 6,962 m (22,841 ft) above sea level. The summit of Mount Chimborazo in the Ecuadorean Andes is the point on the Earth's surface most distant from its center, because of the equatorial bulge.
