Gulls, or colloquially seagulls, are seabirds of the family Laridae in the suborder Lari. They are most closely related to the terns (family Sternidae) and only distantly related to auks, skimmers and even more distantly to waders. Until the 21st century, most gulls were placed in the genus Larus, but that arrangement is now considered polyphyletic, leading to the resurrection of several general.
An older name for gulls is mews, which is cognate with German Möwe, Danish måge, Swedish mås, Dutch meeuw, Norwegian måke/måse and French mouette, and can still be found in certain regional dialects.
Gulls are typically medium to large birds, usually grey or white, often with black markings on the head or wings. They typically have harsh wailing or squawking calls; stout, longish bills; and webbed feet. Most gulls are ground-nesting carnivores which take live food or scavenge opportunistically, particularly the Larus species. Live food often includes crustaceans, molluscs, fish and small birds. Gulls have unhinging jaws which allow them to consume large prey. Gulls are typically coastal or inland species, rarely venturing far out to sea, except for the kittiwakes. The large species take up to four years to attain full adult plumage, but two years is typical for small gulls. Large white-headed gulls are typically long-lived birds, with a maximum age of 49 years recorded for the herring gull.
Gulls nest in large, densely packed, noisy colonies. They lay two or three speckled eggs in nests composed of vegetation. The young are precocial, born with dark mottled down and mobile upon hatching. Gulls are resourceful, inquisitive, and intelligent, the larger species in particular demonstrating complex methods of communication and a highly developed social structure. For example, many gull colonies display mobbing behavior, attacking and harassing predators and other intruders.Certain species have exhibited tool-use behavior, such as the herring gull, using pieces of bread as bait with which to catch goldfish, for example.[ Many species of gulls have learned to coexist successfully with humans and have thrived in human habitats. Others rely on kleptoparasitism to get their food. Gulls have been observed preying on live whales, landing on the whale as it surfaces to peck out pieces of flesh.

I never did much with CP when we were still going to Millinocket, mainly because I was usually the conductor for that job. That being said, I did get them a few times, as seen here with Andy and Matt heading north at North Twin.
CP GP38-2 3051 is leading CMQ 9020 with about forty cars, marking the last time a CMQ engine went north to Millinocket. It's just starting to snow here, the beginning of a predicted fourteen inches of snow, and within an hour, there were already several inches of snow on the ground.
"No one can take me out of this mess-
I do it to myself-
I lost my phone, my keys, what else?
The acid doesn't help.
I'm paranoid as hell and I wanna
Go home but there's no place to run."

One more from the fence line marking the boundary of the woodland at Whiteleaf, Buckinghamshire. Taken at the start of the month there has been not a smidge of mist! Still, it was a good session that morning.
A group of us spent the last sunset of an awesome New Zealand South Island adventure pier-hopping and chasing the light until we ended up in front of some wonderful melted wood at the tranquil Lake Wakatipu (just down the road from Queenstown).
The tranquility was soon after turned on its head by one of our number jumping into the water to light paint the pier and spell some choice words, but that's another story.
Simha is beautiful all over, but the white markings on his paws, chest and belly make him even more beautiful. However, the most outstanding part of his body is his amazing amber eyes.
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
Cherry Promise.......
Yesterday we went to our local park where the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The scene was magical.
This is the first sign of spring, the hope of things to come. the buds appear and the leaves start to push forth just before the bloom appears.

Reworking pictures from 2013. They were in a stash of pictures I took and mounted then. Some changes-colour, composition. This one is a superposition of three images.
Never throw anything away!
Daily Dog Challenge: Centre & Symmetry.
Kahn's markings are quite symmetrical
and his head is pretty much centred here :)
Among the leaves that slowly fall
From the trees, that stand so tall
Colourfully marking out the way
To the love, that always does stay
In my heart, in my dreams
As the sun through the branch's streams
Between the trees, that colourfully talk
Of my sweet love, as to you i walk

Graffiti (singular graffiti or graffito, the latter only used in graffiti archeology) is writing or drawings made on a wall or other surface, usually without permission and within public view. Graffiti ranges from simple written "monikers" to elaborate wall paintings, and has existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire.
Modern graffiti is a controversial subject. In most countries, marking or painting property without permission is considered vandalism. Modern graffiti began in the New York City subway system and Philadelphia in the early 1970s and later spread to the rest of the United States and throughout the world.
