In 1859. the Cornwall Railway company constructed a railway line between Plymouth and Truro, England. The topography of Cornwall is such that the route, which is generally east-west, cuts across numerous deep river valleys that generally run north-south.
The village of Forder is about 1½ miles from Saltash and sits on the banks of one such river valley, with many of the cottages situated along the banks of Forder Creek, off the River Lynher.
On the advice of the Victorian railway engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, they constructed the river crossings in the form of wooden viaducts, 42 in total, consisting of timber deck spans supported by fans of timber bracing built on masonry piers. This unusual method of construction substantially reduced the first cost of construction compared to an all-masonry structure, but at the cost of more expensive maintenance. Replacement of the timber viaducts by all-masonry structures began in the 1870s.
A long overdue catch up this evening with a good friend. We'd been out on the moors searching for Curlews. We did hear a few but sightings were rare.
On my way home the sun was looking grand and I had to pull over and take this shot.
Unfortunately the Lambo was in for a service so the Shhkoda had to provide the foreground!! :)
in the late summer light of hannover’s linden district, the balconies along limmerstraße held their own quiet rhythm. rectangles of concrete and brick stacked in steady repetition, until the sun caught on two umbrellas — one a weathered white, the other a defiant blue. between them, a scattering of green plants leaned toward the warmth, while shadows carved out deep spaces around the scene. it was a moment when architecture stood still, but the light made it hum.

This is one of my favorite places. I had the Twirly Camera out for a spin in late October. It's always interesting to see how that camera will "see" any given scene.

Early one day during the heatwave, we took a walk along the River Itchen and had breakfast at Woodmill.

gratitude for all visits
While taking a walk in the harbor to check out the ice fishermen and two lakers berthed there for the winter, I noticed a small blob some distance out in the bay. Once I got closer at the end of the jetty, I could see it was a fisherman out there all by himself. It crossed my mind that it's a long ways out if the ice gives way underneath you but it did make an interesting minimalist composition.
One of the many colorful Roseate Spoonbills in Merritt Island. This one must have been looking for a mate with all of his moves.
I was tempted to pick up little K & give it a spin in the washer then promote it to van mascot sat on my dash board where it could sit in the warmth & look out at the world passing by but no way am I driving round that carpark again trying to find spot to park with all these crazy festive shoppers !! anyway little K probably would have ended up as a mop for spilt coffee on the dash, have your freedom K goodbye little fellow ;-(
This Scaly-breasted Munia gave me a quick look and then headed off to the upper reaches of a nearby tree - with the rest of his friends ! I guess I got a little too close but don't worry they soon returned !! The plentiful seeds along the Meadowbrook at the Los Angeles County Arboretum made certain of that !
Originally created for deer hunting, Richmond Park now has 630 red and fallow deer that roam freely within much of the park. A cull takes place each November and February to ensure numbers can be sustained about 200 deer are culled annually and the meat is sold to licensed game dealers.Some deer are also killed in road accidents, through ingesting litter such as small items of plastic, or by dogs; three deer were killed by dogs in 2012.Many of the deer in Richmond Park are infected with a bacterium called Borrelia burgdorferi which can be transmitted to humans through a tick bite, causing Lyme disease.
The park is an important refuge for other wildlife, including woodpeckers, squirrels, rabbits, snakes, frogs, toads, stag beetles and many other insects plus numerous ancient trees and varieties of fungi. It is particularly notable for its rare beetles.
Richmond Park supports a large population of what are believed to be ring-necked (or rose-ringed) parakeets. These bred from birds that escaped or were freed from captivity.
