A fine block of five kilns stands adjacent to a large working quarry. The stone here was worked in the first half of the nineteenth century by John Lloyd and by 1862 it was operating as Lloyd Jones & Co. There is a large bank of lime waste in front of the kilns. Lime from here was used in the building of docks in Liverpool, Birkenhead and Belfast between 1860 and 1890. It appears that the bank of kilns was extended twice. Production ended in 1914 and the face of one kiln has now collapsed whilst its neighbour shows signs of having been robbed of stone. Since this photo was taken the kilns have seen significant restoration and stabilisation works.

We are experiencing peak summer in Chennai, 100 degree F with humidity 55%. Like us humans, the animals also suffer from scorching sun.
I took this picture last year summer. These poor panting crows were resting in my friend's house balcony.
Panting is a method of cooling, used by many mammals, most birds, and some reptiles, accomplished by means of the evaporation of water from internal body surfaces. As the animal’s body temperature rises, its respiration rate increases sharply; cooling results from the evaporation of water in the nasal passages, mouth, lungs, and (in birds) air sacs.
I probably spend way too much time considering hypothetical situations. For instance, what if humans panted instead of sweated to cool off? My front would be covered in foamy slobber on a day like today.

this time of year--mid-February--one starts getting a case of the winter "blahs."

When Victor plays himself out, he'll let his jaw hang open for minutes at a time and pant like a dog.
I thought there was something wrong with him the first time I walked by doing this, but it seems like a regular thing for him.
This is a bit out of focus because my camera is broken at the moment.
Yes A Houmoungus Adirondac Chair!

The O&NR opened a station at Pant in February 1862. It was located on the eastern edge of its village namesake on the western side of the Montgomery Canal. A small lane, which became Station Road, crossed the line at this point by means of a level crossing and the station was situated on the north side.
At the time of opening the line was single track and the station was provided with a single-storey building under a pitched roof, with its gable end facing the railway. The window openings had shallow segmental arches. The structure was probably of brick, but in later years it was rendered. The building was located on the west side of the line adjacent to the level crossing. There was probably only a simple low-level platform at this time also located on the west side of the line.
A tramway which pre-dated the railway linked a quarry at Crickheath Hill to the Montgomery Canal at Pant and to serve it exchange sidings were laid out at the station. They were located on the west side of the line to the south of the level crossing.
At the time of opening, passenger trains ran between Oswestry and Newtown. There were six trains in each direction on Monday-to-Saturday and one each way on Sunday.
In the second half of 1863 work began on doubling the main line between Oswestry and Llanymynech and it was completed by 15 February 1864. At Pant two new platforms were provided. The original platform served the up (Oswestry direction) line and new down (Newtown direction) platform was provided.
During the 1890s improvements were made along the CR main line which resulted in better timekeeping and faster services; however, the average speed of an express train between Whitchurch and Aberystwyth was still only 28mph. In 1893 an additional building was provided on the up platform and both platforms were rebuilt. The new building was located to the north of the original and was an austere single-storey structure in brick, with rectangular openings and a pitched slate roof. Minor decoration consisted of a finial on each plain bargeboard and splayed chimney stacks. Around this time a signal box also opened at Pant. It was located at the south end of the down platform. The down platform also gained an enclosed timber waiting shelter beneath a pent roof. The December 1895 timetable showed five up and four down trains on Monday-to-Friday. There was an extra up train on Monday and an extra down on Wednesday. Four of the up trains and three of the down stopped by request only. On Sunday there was one train in each direction which stopped by request.
In 1913 the quarry and its tramway closed.
On 1 January 1922, the CR was taken over by the Great Western Railway (GWR). The July 1922 timetable showed five up and seven down trains on Monday-to-Saturday as seen in the table below. There was an extra down train on every Monday and two on the first and third Monday of the month. There was an extra down train on the first and third Monday of the month, an extra train on Thursday and two extra trains on Saturday. No trains called on Sunday.On 1 July 1924 the station was renamed Pant (Salop). This was to distinguish it from Pant (Glam) and Pant Halt near Wrexham.
During the 1920s the GWR made improvements to the former CR line which speeded up journey times.
On 1 January 1948, Pant (Salop) became part of British Railways [Western Region]. The 15 September 1958 timetable showed nine up and ten down trains on Monday-to-Saturday. One of the down trains did not run during school holidays and no trains called on Sunday.On 1 January 1963, Pant (Salop) passed to the operational control of British Railways [London Midland Region] (BR[LMR]). Three months later the Reshaping of British Railways report (the ‘Beeching Report’) was published. It recommended the withdrawal of all passenger trains between Buttington and Whitchurch and complete closure of the line between Buttington and Llynclys. The intention to withdraw passenger services was published on 11 March 1964, and the TUCC report on the closure hearings was received by Ernest Marples, Minister of Transport, on 13 July 1964. His consent to the closure was announced on 11 September 1964.On 6 July 1964 the goods facilities at Pant closed.
The timetable of 7 September 1964 showed nine trains in each direction on Monday-to-Friday. There was one less train in each direction on Saturday.
The last train called at Pant (Salop) at 9.19pm on Saturday 16 January 1965. It was a Saturdays-only service from Oswestry to Welshpool. The line between Buttington and Llynclys closed completely on 18 January 1965. The track through Pant was lifted later that year.

The oppressive heat wave has broken, and we’ve finally gotten some showers and even a short thunderstorm. Before then, many of the birds at my feeders were panting, like this blue jay from July 15. This was shot through the windows of my back door and new storm-and-screen door, from the comfort of my recliner.
