Buff-banded Rail
Scientific Name: Gallirallus philippensis
Description: The Buff-banded Rail is a medium-sized stout rail with short legs. It has a distinctive grey eyebrow and an orange-brown band on its streaked breast. The lores, cheek and hindneck are rich chestnut. The chin and throat are grey, the upperparts streaked brown and the underparts barred black and white. The eye is red. Young birds are much paler to white underneath, with indistinct bars and only a faint orange-brown tint on the breast. Downy chicks are fluffy black. This rail walks slowly, with tail raised and flicking constantly.
Similar species: The orange-brown breast band distinguishes the Buff-banded Rail from the similar but smaller Lewin's Rail,Dryolimnas pectoralis, which has a rich chestnut crown and nape and a proportionally longer pink bill.
Distribution: The Buff-banded Rail is widespread in mainland Australia, particularly along the eastern coast and islands, and on Norfolk and Lord Howe Islands. It is also found in south-east Asia, New Guinea and New Zealand.
Habitat: The Buff-banded Rail is seen singly or in pairs in dense reeds and vegetation bordering many types of wetlands or crops. It makes widespread use of artificial wetlands like sewage ponds and drainage channels.
Seasonal movements: The Buff-banded Rail is resident and possibly locally nomadic, though little is known of these movements.
Feeding: The Buff-banded Rail feeds on crustaceans, molluscs, insects, seeds, fruit, frogs, carrion and refuse. It mostly feeds early in the morning and the evening.
Breeding: Breeding is poorly known, but the Buff-breasted Rail nests in long grass, tussocks, rushes or crops. It makes an unlined cup-shaped nest of grasses or reeds. Both parents incubate and the young will leave the nest within 24 hours. Both parents remain with the young, which usually feed themselves, though the female may feed them as well. Two broods may be raised in some seasons.
Calls: Loud creaky squeak when breeding but usually silent.
Minimum Size: 28cm
Maximum Size: 33cm
Average size: 31cm
Average weight: 130g
Breeding season: September to February
Clutch Size: 5 to 8 eggs
Incubation: 19 days
Nestling Period: 1 days

Templo del Pabellón de Oro - Temple of the Golden Pavilion
Este popular pabellón, enclavado dentro de los jardines del templo Kinkaku-ji (o también Rokuon-ji) es centro de pergrinación de fieles y turistas, y presenta la peculiaridad de tener las paredes exteriores de las dos plantas superiores recubiertas con pan de oro. Sirvió de inspiración al novelista japonés Yukio Mishima para su obra "El Pabellón Dorado" (1956).
This popular pavilion, nestled within the gardens of the temple Kinkaku-ji (also called Rokuon-ji) is a center of pilgrimage for believers and tourists, and has the distinction of having the exterior walls of the two plants top coated with gold leaf. It inspired the Japanese novelist Yukio Mishima for his work "The Golden Pavilion" (1956).

I am recording the progress of a little cherry tree we planted in our garden in the late summer of 2021. So far it has survived snow, frost, high winds, heatwaves, extended periods of rain and the not infrequent attentions of a certain dog. It is thriving however and it will be interesting to watch it grow over the coming seasons.

At CAMP FR this October, a group of us, under the guidance of Chris Watson, sat on the side of a mountain and made a "skyline" recording of the area just above Aulus les Bains. Skyline recordings are usually used as soundtracks over which to place dialogue, or can be used as atmospheres behind other sounds, especially "species" recordings. They usually contain all the sounds of the locale - in this case a river, red deer calling out, bird calls, motors from chain saws, etc. - all captured together from a great distance... So they give a good general ambience (or idea) of the sonic environment in which one is located.

Lo spettro di una Nebbia che sale dal terreno e sembra si mangi tutto quello che ammanta ed avvolge.
Here’s original guitarist Klaus Eichstadt as Ugly Kid Joe performing at The Bourbon in Lincoln, Nebraska, Tuesday, May 16, 2023.
I remember I bought their 1991 EP album, 'As Ugly as They Wanna Be', immediately after its released, and it peaked at #4 in the US Billboard 200; it is notable for being the first EP to be certified multi-platinum, according to Recording Industry Association of America (aka: RIAA).
Unfortunately, the band didn't stay that long, as they broke up in 1997; but reunited around in 2010, and been staying together with some changes of the members' lineup except frontman Whitfield Crane and Klaus.
It was good to see them played on the stage. It was a totally fun show. 💯

Intermediate egret (I think? Cattle egret?)
Scientific Name: Ardea intermedia
Description: The plumage of the Intermediate Egret is wholly white. During the breeding season, adults have long filamentous plumes emerging from the scapulars, and dense plumes from the breast. The bare parts vary with the stage of the breeding cycle: during courtship the bill is deep pink to bright red with a yellow tip and green base, the lores are bright green, the eyes red and the legs ruby red; when laying, the bill is dull red, the lores are dull, pale green, and the eye is yellow. By the time of hatching, the bill is dull orange-yellow, the lores are yellow or green-yellow, the eye is yellow and the upper portion of the leg yellow with the lower portion grey-black. During non-breeding season, they lose their plumes, the bill turns orange-yellow, the lores are green-yellow or yellow, the eyes are horn-coloured and the upper portions of the legs vary, with the lower portion black. Juveniles appear like non-breeding adults.
Similar Species: The Intermediate Egret is similar to Australia's other all-white egrets. The Little Egret is distinguished by its long, black bill. The Great Egret is distinguished by its proportionally longer neck and flat-headed appearance and has a distinct gape that extends well behind the eye. Cattle Egrets are much shorter and dumpier with a stouter bill.
Location: Within Australia, the Intermediate Egret can be found at wetlands throughout the northern third of the continent as well as the eastern third. They are generally absent from Tasmania.
Habitat: Mostly a denizen of the shallows in terrestrial wetlands, the Intermediate Egret prefers freshwater swamps, billabongs, floodplains and wet grasslands with dense aquatic vegetation, and is only occasionally seen in estuarine or intertidal habitats.
Feeding: Aquatic animals, principally fish and frogs, are the main food of the Intermediate Egret. They are usually hunted by standing and waiting, then stabbing at the prey with its dagger-like beak.
Breeding: Intermediate Egrets build a shallow platform of interwoven sticks, placed on a horizontal branch in a tree that is usually standing in water. They generally lay three or four pale-green eggs which are incubated by both sexes. The nestlings are fed by both parents, who regurgitate food, either into the nest or directly into the beak of the young bird.

Galah
Scientific Name:Eolophus roseicapillus
Description: The Galah can be easily identified by its rose-pink head, neck and underparts, with paler pink crown, and grey back, wings and undertail. Birds from the west of Australia have comparatively paler plumage. Galahs have a bouncing acrobatic flight, but spend much of the day sheltering from heat in the foliage of trees and shrubs. Huge noisy flocks of birds congregate and roost together at night.
Similar species: The Galah is generally unmistakable, but in flight may resemble aGang-gang Cockatoo in shape.
Distribution: The Galah is one of the most abundant and familiar of the Australian parrots, occurring over most of Australia, including some offshore islands.
Habitat: The Galah is found in large flocks in a variety of timbered habitats, usually near water.
Feeding: Galahs form huge, noisy flocks which feed on seeds, mostly from the ground. Seeds of grasses and cultivated crops are eaten, making these birds agricultural pests in some areas. Birds may travel large distances in search of favourable feeding grounds.
Breeding: Galahs form permanent pair bonds, although a bird will take a new partner if the other one dies. The nest is a tree hollow or similar location, lined with leaves. Both sexes incubate the eggs and care for the young. There is high chick mortality in Galahs, with up to 50 % of chicks dying in the first six months. Galahs have been recorded breeding with other members of the cockatoo family, both in the wild and captivity. These include the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo, C. galerita.
Calls: The voice is a distinctive high-pitched screech, 'chi-chi'.
Minimum Size: 35cm
Maximum Size: 36cm
Average size: 36cm
Average weight: 337g
Breeding season: February to July in the north; July to December in the south
Clutch Size: 3 to 4

Class 45 "Peak" diesel electric locomotive No. 45032 arrives at Liskeard with the up Cornish Riviera Limited on Monday 27th October 1975. This famous named train ran from Penzance to London Paddington, and I believe at the date of this photo was booked to depart from the Cornish terminus at 11:00. I have it down in my surviving notebook as leaving Liskeard at 12:27. It's a shame it wasn't a "Western" on the front but then the "Peak" has its own appeal too, especially now. A little research was needed to fill in the details here, both from the web and from my atrocious notes made on the day which were written in green ballpoint pen.
The occasion was a school railway society day trip, the highlight of which was a run on the Gunnislake branch. You can see some of my school chums on the platform waiting to board the "Up Rivo", and I'm sure it was also one of them holding the microphone.
