We always have two pairs of Pigeons nest in our garden each year, they spend the whole of the time squabbling!

Taken in the garden today!

Thanks to everyone for the time you spent looking at my photo, comments, faves, invitations and awards. I really appreciate it. 😀

This pair of Wood Ducks quickly skimmed over the long waterway that separates woodland and marsh at Lake St. Clair Metropark.

A macro shot of the two main components that make up a pair of pliers.

 

The two halves of the pliers were put in clamps to hold their alignment and positioned over my black background. Lighting was adjusted to provide a reasonable even illumination and two focus layers were made, one on the machined surface and the other on the cast surface. The two focus layers were aligned and processed in PS. The parts measure 2.25 inches or about 2.5 inches as shown.

For Looking close.... on Friday!

Have a fantastic weekend!

I went to the Sandhill Crane Festival in Fairbanks, Alaska and was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting four days of rain but we had two nice afternoons of some sunshine otherwise it would have been disappointing for photograhy! One of the rainy evenings I was thrilled to see hundreds if not more than a thousand cranes arrive to Creamer's Field in Fairbanks. Here I've captured two cranes coming in to one of the fields to eat and rest for a bit on their migration south.

This pair is well practiced in flying in formation. It's hard to see from this photo but they were inches apart and perfectly synchronized in their wing movement. Beautiful to watch.

This majestic pair of eagles has a nearby nest with chicks getting nearly as big as the adults. Full grown juveniles look larger than their parents with larger wing feathers. Female adults are the largest in the family. . (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)

Mottled Ducks are quite common in Florida. They sometimes breed with Mallards and hybrids form, much to the consternation of my biologist friend who is interested in preserving the Florida line. Here is a mated pair in flight. You can tell the male is in the foreground by his brighter yellow bill. The female's bill is more orange and duller.

 

I just looked up the Latin name and I'm almost jealous. How'd you like to be named "Anas fulvigula"? Not great: "Hey Anas, get a load of this!" Great: "Hey, Fulvigula, get a load of this!" :)

I did go looking for Wood Ducks on this day, but of course couldn't pass on this fast-cruising pair of Mandarins. They were in and out of shade, which sort of accounts for my ridiculous EXIF settings. These exotics, likely descended from caged escapees, show up during our SoCal winters. As you can see, the female looks a lot like a female wood duck, and they were mixed in with the wood ducks I was hoping to find.

It took a little bit of waiting for the sunny railfan shot of the Missabe maroon pair once they were assigned to the E Lead Switch (actually 8 days of trying on the St. Louis River Road bridge), but we were able to get the DM&IR 215 and 403 working the north end of Proctor Yard here on September 27, 2021. Good thing we got the Missabe pair on day 8 as they only lasted on this job for 9 days. DMIR 215 and 403 are still together at Proctor but have spent the last few days inside the Diesel House.

 

Lots of CN painted EMDs continue working around Proctor as seen here around the yard, but two maroons look more at home even shuffling freight cars.

No Photoshop shenanigans here folks. It's a reflection of playing cards in Mylar.

Not often does one find purple tulips, but these water-drenched beauties were to be seen at The Leaf, a major horticultural attraction in Winnipeg. Happy Tulip Tuesday!

 

Thank you for stopping by and for leaving me a comment, I love hearing from you! Have a wonderful day!

This pair paddled around a small area of open water.
