With the exception of the patch, the paint job on the ex C&NW 8808 looks good. I always loved the lightning stripe on their GE's.
Thanks for the help with the ID of this butterfly. It was hanging out with the Common Buckeyes and Painted Ladies and is about the same size. I'm in Johnson Co., Kansas, U.S.A.
This male tree bumble bee was hanging around a nest that is somewhere in the middle of the garden Japanese anemone patch. Unlike the specimen posted previously he has managed to keep his hair on. He is furrier than the workers and has some brown hairs an his abdomen whereas they are all black.
This was kind of a sad collection of pumpkins ready for picking at the Cornbelly's Pumpkin Patch in Spanish Fork.

My Vet occasionally takes in dogs, either found stray or owner-surrendered. I try to take pictures of the animals up for adoptions, as it is proven that better pictures go a long way towards swift adoption.
As of the posting of this (January 30, 2016), Patches and Rascal here are up for adoption as a pair. Contact Kingston Road Animal Hospital in East York, Toronto.
Very deceptive terrain. what looks like solid ground is actually very soft mud. Every year fire and rescue is called out to the mudflats around Anchorage to rescue stuck people. The danger is not the mud. The danger is that the mud holds you until the fast moving tide comes back in and drowns you.

While perhaps not as widely distributed as Grant's, Thomson's are still the most common gazelles in East Africa. Though their numbers have diminished in some areas, in others they have persisted on ranches and farmlands long after other species have disappeared.
The graceful "tommie" is noticeably smaller than the Grant's gazelle, which it resembles in shape and color. It is also distinguished from a Grant's by the dark side stripe that runs from the shoulder to the flank and the white patch on the rump.
The males are larger than the females and have strongly ridged, almost parallel horns that curve backwards, with the tips curving forward. Female tommies have short, smooth, pencil-slim horns, or none at all. The face is accented by a black stripe running down from the eye, a dark marking on the nose and a light patch on the forehead.
Although more reliant on water than Grant's gazelle, the tommy has adapted to the open plains and grasslands of southern Kenya and northern Tanzania. Wikipedia
I got one!!!!!!!!!! And in my own yard of all places!!!!! Lately, several friends have been showing off their hummingbird moth photos and making me very jealous. I havent seen one of these in a few decades, much less since i got proper camera gear. Well today while looking for butterflies again, I went to try and chase a goldfinch that was feeding on my zinnia patch. It flew off quickly like usual, but I kept watch incase the hummingbirds came by. I noticed what I thought was a bee at first flying around but was off colored. Expecting to find a Golden Northern Bumblebee, I went to investigate and it was a clear wing moth!! I was so excited to finally see one, in my yard, AND with a camera in hand that I kept getting too close, to where the camera couldnt focus. When reviewing the shots, more disaster, more out of focus while in the middle of firing off shots. Thats ok, I did manage a few that are close enough in focus that I was ok with processing and posting. This is one of those shots to start with. I will probably add a few more as I keep editing and hopefully it comes back a few more times.
The storm clouds push out over the Atlantic making way for a Glorious Sunrise the next morning. Thanks for the Look and have a great day.

I saw my first wild poppy in bloom in April this year. This is my first glimpse of a poppy field - albeit a very small patch

The Australian magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen) is a medium-sized black and white passerine bird native to Australia and southern New Guinea. Although once considered to be three separate species, it is now considered to be one, with nine recognised subspecies. A member of the Artamidae, the Australian magpie is placed in its own genus and is most closely related to the black butcherbird (Melloria quoyi). Currawongs have yellow eyes, whereas Magpies have red-brown eyes and Butcherbirds have very dark brown, almost black eyes. It is not, however, closely related to the European magpie, which is a corvid. The adult Australian magpie is a fairly robust bird ranging from 37 to 43 cm in length, with distinctive black and white plumage, gold brown eyes and a solid wedge-shaped bluish-white and black bill. The male and female are similar in appearance, and can be distinguished by differences in back markings. The male has pure white feathers on the back of the head and the female has white blending to grey feathers on the back of the head. With its long legs, the Australian magpie walks rather than waddles or hops and spends much time on the ground. Described as one of Australia's most accomplished songbirds, the Australian magpie has an array of complex vocalisations. It is omnivorous, with the bulk of its varied diet made up of invertebrates. It is generally sedentary and territorial throughout its range. Common and widespread, it has adapted well to human habitation and is a familiar bird of parks, gardens and farmland in Australia and New Guinea. This species is commonly fed by households around the country, but in spring (and occasionally in autumn) a small minority of breeding magpies (almost always males) become aggressive and swoop and attack those who approach their nests.
Noisy miner is a bird in the honeyeater family, and endemic to Australia. It is grey, with a black head, orange-yellow beak and feet, a distinctive yellow patch behind the eye and white tips on the tail feathers. It's a vocal species with a large range of songs, calls, scoldings and alarms, and almost constant vocalisations. They are gregarious and territorial; they forage, bathe, roost, breed and defend territory communally. R_3181

CSX C670-26 begins its assault of the “west slope” of. Sand Patch Grade just west of Meyersdale. This train would be powered by a duo of SD70MACs, the trailing of which looked reasonably fresh.
This shot is unusual as it was taken midday. Most activity for almost any mammal is around dawn and dusk.
