David Rowell & Co Ltd, Westminster, London. 1855 - 1970.

"The Iron, Wire, Wire-rope and Fencing Company" was how they were describing themselves in 1885, but they also diversified into wrought iron-framed corrugated iron-clad buildings (including “tin tabernacles”) and bridges, which can be found in Britain and other countries including New Zealand and Chile.

 

This was spied on the boundary of the Richborough Roman fort, Kent.

The one with the blue cere is ♂

 

Budgerigar

Scientific Name: Melopsittacus undulatus

Description: Since its introduction into captivity, the Budgerigar (or 'budgie') has been bred into a variety of colour forms, including pure white, blue, yellow, mauve, olive and grey. In the wild, Budgerigars are small green and yellow parrots, with black barring above, and a small patch of blue on the cheek. The male has a dark blue cere (skin at the base of the upper mandible surrounding the nostrils). In the female this is brownish when breeding and light blue otherwise. Young Budgerigars are similar to the adult birds, but are duller and have a dark brown eye (which is white or yellow in adults).

Distribution: The Budgerigar occurs naturally throughout much of mainland Australia, but is absent from the far south-west, the north of the Northern Territory, Tasmania and the majority of the east coast.

Habitat: Budgerigars are nomadic and large flocks of birds can be seen in most open habitat types, but seldom far from water. Very large flocks, numbering occasionally in the tens of thousands, are seen after a season of abundant rainfall and food. Flocks are usually much smaller, however, and range from as few as three birds up to 100 or more. Birds in a flock fly in a characteristic undulating manner.

Seasonal movements: Nomadic.

Feeding: Budgerigars feed almost exclusively on the seeds of native herbs and grasses, such as porcupine grass and saltbush. Seeds are mostly eaten from the ground and the bulk of drinking and feeding activity is in the morning.

Breeding: Budgerigars tend to breed in response to rainfall, and may produce several broods if conditions permit. The nest is a bare cavity in a suitable tree branch or in the trunk. The female sits on the round white eggs. As with other parrots, young budgerigars are born naked and helpless.

Calls: The contact call is a warbling "chirrup"; "zit" is given in alarm.

Minimum Size: 17cm

Maximum Size: 18cm

Average size: 18cm

Average weight: 28g

Breeding season: Any time of year when conditions suitable

Clutch Size: 6 to 8 eggs

Nestling Period: 35 days

Following on from my recent shot of this post box & mysterious green door (see first comment box below), I thought I'd take a photo of the whole building to give a bit more context.

 

Mystery solved; the nicely painted green door is to gain access to a totally derelict & overgrown building 😄 HWW!

It would appear that, as the title states I have a passion for the posts at the Uphill end of Weston Supper Mare beach. Whatever the weather they help to make the beach an amazing photographic subject.

Better when L is pressed

 

The iron heart of the old ore crushing house is one of the most most evident reminders of the mining heritage of Glendalough.

 

It sits well in the landscape in my opinion.

The "pocket park" called The Green at 320 Park has a bunch of nice seating and a ping pong table and this foosball table that has been moved to a spot of prominence.

They also have a calendar of events. If you are in the West Loop Gate neighborhood its worth swing thru.
