Among the exotic and unusual residents of the Brevard Zoo you will find some local visitors hanging out, too! Though this little bird wasn't very unusual or colorful, I still loved the way she posed for me!
Along the footpath are 2 robins who live in this small area of the park and guard it from other Bobs..

(316/366) We're making an conscious effort to buy more locally produced food. Supervalu in Wellingtonbridge would be our nearest decent sized supermarket, I really liked how they have displayed this fresh produce in wheelbarrows, the person who thought this up deserves a medal (best viewed Large to see the wellington boots!) As well as vegetables they offer a wide range of local produce including fish (of course), butter, bread, hen & duck eggs, bacon, sausages & the most delicious yogurts.
Lovely sunny day here after torrential rain last night. I'm off to explore the grounds of Johnstown Castle with the Wexford Naturalists' Field Group this afternoon so I'll catch up with comments this evening. Have a great weekend everyone.
Industry local out of Eola for BNSF shoves a couple of cars back into an industry. This B40-8W is a far cry from the hotshots it was on for the Santa Fe. The 552 is a survivor of the cutting torch and paint booth, so far.
Watchet, harbour, Somerset, UK.
Watchet developed as a town thanks to its closeness to the minerals within the Brendon Hills, and its access to the River Severn for onward shipping. Aside from local ships plying trade across the river, from 1564 onwards the port was used for import of salt and wine from France.
In 1643 during the English Civil War, a Royalist ship was sent to Watchet to reinforce for the siege of Dunster Castle. Parliamentarian Captain Popham ordered his troops into the sea with the tide on the ebb, and with the ship unable to move, attacked the ship with fire from their carbines. Taken by surprise and under heavy attack, the Royalist commander surrendered the ship, resulting in a ship technically at sea being captured by troops on horseback.
Heading back home to the yard at Reserve, a local nears the west end of the long trestle over the Bonnet Carré Spillway outside of Norco. KCS between the outskirts of New Orleans and Baton Rouge can be a tough stretch to chase trains through, with the traffic lights in the small towns on parallel US 61 and the railroad ducking in and out of huge chemical plants and swamps. One thing that does slow trains down is the rickety trestle over the spillway, with a 10mph speed restriction over its entire 2.1 mile length.
A walk around my local park in Balloch last week found the diverse naturalised and native trees in peak autumn condition. One of my favourites are the Japanese maples which can be found in abundance around the walled garden in the centre of the park.
Resting for the weekend, the pair of SD40-2's that work BNSF's Sealy Local are tied down in the small yard at Sealy, about 50 miles west of Houston. The Sealy Local is a M-F job that runs from Sealy down to Booth and returns, switching various customers along the way.
BNSF 1914 was built as BN 6333 in February 1972. Despite receiving a BNSF patch in 2000, and a BNSF number about 10 years later, this locomotive's original BN number can still be seen in faded paint on the long hood.

Local farm lads having fun in the flood water.
For a lot of us the storms and floods are an inconvenience - for some they are a disaster - and for some its a fun break from routine.
Hemyock, Devon, UK. (10:15 GMT)
At 08:00 apparently the water was over the wooden walk-way on the left of the picture.

The "Illmo Local", UP Train LSI55 16 passes the grain elevator at Boeving on the UP Hoxie Sub. This location is named for the company that built the elevator originally, Boeving Brothers, whom my grandpa once worked for. After that it was part of Bunge, and now belongs to SEMO Milling LLC. It will service the kitty litter plant north of Dexter, and the elevator at Essex on the UP Sikeston Sub. before coming back to Poplar Bluff.

I’ve been wanting to shoot this for along time, I’ve just never been at the right place at the right time until a couple of days ago. The “Corning Local” backs down the Blacksburg branch in Christiansburg with a single SD40-2 and an N&W caboose on the rear. There’s no crossing gates at this extreme busy crossing so two people walk behind and stop traffic. The train has just worked Corning, a ceramic manufacturer in Christiansburg, and it’s now going to meet the Christiansburg district and head back to Radford yard.

After servicing Utz the empties have been combined with other outbound cars on Elm Siding in Hanover, PA to be picked up by the next day's local from Hagerstown Yard (L137). The L136 will return lite back to the shop on the east side of Hanover and call it a day. February 3, 2026. Lucky C200, Pentax MX.

I wonder which is better, the monochrome or colored. This is the original image taken. It seemed that the attractive colors and accessories of the donkey are more eye catching than the owner of the donkey.
