I saw this group of Ring-necked ducks at Commonwealth Lake yesterday. I had heard that some folks have seen a golden eye there; although I didn't see it, I was happy to see these!

"Ring, ring the bells
wake the town
everyone is sleeping
shout at the crowd
wake them up
this anger is deeper than sleep
Got to keep awake to what is happen
I can't see a thing through my ambition
I no longer feel my God is watching over me
Got to tell the world we've all been dreaming
This is not the end, a new beginning
I new longer feel my God is watching
Break, break the code
Concentrate,
let the door swing open
See, through all my walls
All my floors, now I'm in deeper than sleep
When you let me fly,
grew my own wings,
now I'm tall as the sky
When you let my drown
grew gills and fins
Now I am as deep as the sea
When, you let my die,
my spirits free
There's nothing challenging me"

My first migratory duck shot of the season - always exciting.
The storm water ponds and lakes in parks and neighborhoods here are the first to open up and provide a landing place for the early arriving migrating waterfowl giving them a place to rest and feed before the melt of the natural lakes in this area and farther north.

There seem to be good numbers of Ring Ouzels around this year in the usual places around the Derbyshire edges. I took this image near Burbage earlier today.
The old cash register at Vulture City's last filling station hasn't had a sale in 80+ years as the towns mines were closed during WWII. President Roosevelt shut all none essential mines to concentrate on the war effort. This was basically the end for the fading, isolated town. Mining has started again at the sight, the towns new owners have had to work fast to save as much as they can of the historic property before its gone forever....
