Substituting soft toys to try to make up for him not having litter-mates. He is a "big-boy" now, and has no more interest in his bottle! 😊
I was planning on doing a nice series on the attractive purple peninsulas of pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata) which occur around the lake, and set off in the canoe to do precisely that on a beautiful, sunny Saturday in the northwoods. Unfortunately, the winds kicked up after I departed, creating not only a bad day for photos of anything from the canoe, but also a bad day to be 66 years old as the breezes tested my mettle. (I'm not sure what a "mettle" is, but I am sure it was tested and hope it's not sore tomorrow.)
Thus you will have to make do with this spotted knapweed (Centaurea biebersteinii) which is not only also purple, but has the added peculiar distinction of apparently being named for Justin Bieber. Or perhaps the latter was named for the former. Either way, I would consider both highly invasive in their own right, and tho Justin would no doubt strongly disagree, I find the weed far prettier and recommend a taxonomical redo.
We drove out on Skyline Road (some maps call it Moon View Road) to watch the moon rise at sunset. Wilbur is standing close to the edge of a cliff and a bitterly cold wind was blasting, threatening to blow him over the edge. Wisely, I hung back a bit. The moon did rise, but my lens was too short to capture it well. So another moon, shot at the Grand Canyon last year was substituted.
Happy Slider Sunday!
Some fake sugar for my tea this afternoon. Hit the spot after spending the morning out in the cold looking for a landscape shot.
Approaching Tunnel 1, the Rio Grande Ski Train marches up the Moffat Tunnel Subdivision east of Plainview, Colorado, on the morning of January 7, 2001. Pinch-hitting for ailing F40PH No. 242 on today’s train is Rio Grande GP40-2 No. 3105.
Goldfinches are in full bright yellow plumage now. I got out the camera to photograph them when this guy showed up. The finches can wait.
Red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus)
It is always nice catching the Union Yard/Midway Yard job when the usual 1824/1896 pair has gone to Northtown for refueling or inspection, etc., as the replacement power always seems to be something different. Back in mid-December it was an SD40-2R/SD75M combo that had the honors as they pulled a cut out of Union and headed over to Midway. Seeing one of the ex-ATSF ex-SD45-2s that are captive to Northtown is fun too. BNSF 1571 (ATSF 5702) was one of the five SD45-2s back in the day to wear the bicentennial scheme for a couple of years.
While I was trying to set up for the selfie uploaded yesterday, my son kindly volunteered (well, volunteered is an exaggeration) to be my substitute while I tried to set up focus, distance etc and to see what the posy of flowers would look like. I originally wanted to hold them out in front like this but ended up with a slightly different pose.
I decided I would use one of the images for my 10 portraits of him for the Flickr 220 x100 Challenge. He really liked this one.
Yum!!! A little sand never hurt anyone and even a baby Black Skimmer Chick!! Black Skimmers are such good parents, they watch the babies to make sure they can swallow the fish ok! They will sometimes take the fish away from the baby and chew on it to soften it up some to make sure everything is just right for junior!! This Needlefish is just about gone and it makes a great pacifier also!! The baby is close to the parent for shade and to prevent Gulls and other Critters from trying to steal the hard earned meal!! Hope you like the image and we will see everyone tomorrow!!
Please note!!! I shoot with a huge lens well away from boundaries and off the beach for hours at a time!! It is very important not to bother these birds!! If you are scaring the parents or the babies it is wrong and not worth it!!

The Rio Grande Zephyr pauses briefly at its scheduled 8:25 p.m. stop in Provo, Utah on a pleasant April evening in 1975. At left, the usual gang of devoted fans were on hand to greet the train’s arrival, likely discussing the substitute power on the point of the train.
D8107 (20107) makes for an incongruous sight, heading away from Long Preston with the 10.35 Appleby - Skipton on Wed 12th August 2020.
While #815 was on it's 92-day inspection back in February, former SP GP60 #1107 briefly filled in on the UP YPR60. With four cars from Blommer, the 60A rolls across Tower A2 interlocking, one of the last holdouts of CNW-style GRS searchlights in the Midwest.
A seguito dell'implementazione del sistema di sicurezza ETCS lungo l'asse alpino del San Gottardo le Br185 che DB adoperava abitualmente su questo itinerario dovettero essere distolte dall'abituale servizio per permettere la progressiva installazione dei sistemi necessari. SBB Cargo e DB Schenker siglarono pertanto un accordo commerciale per lo "scambio" di una parte delle proprie dotazioni.
Mentre quindi una decina di Br185 vennero assegnate ai servizi "domestici" delle Ferrovie Federali elvetiche, prevalentemente assegnate al deposito di Zurich Limathal, SBB sostituì fino allo scorso cambio d'orario, le TRAXX tedesche con le proprie locomotive su tutti i convogli che dalla Germania si dirigevano in Ticino ed Italia.
Nella foto la Re4/4.11183 sta proprio trainando sul San Gottardo uno dei convogli forse più indelebilmente associati alle Br185 tedesche, il "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza. (30/10/15)
In the last months the DBS Br185.1s used along the Gotthard route had been withdrawed due to the ETCS implementation.
While some loks were working with SBB in domestic freight activities around Zurih Limathal, some Re10/10 were employed to haul also the DBS international trains from Basel to Chiasso.
Beyond the many mixed freight from Mannheim, also the "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza had been entrusted to the Swiss loks.
Here the Re4/4.11183 and a Re6/6 are running just before the Biaschina Loops heading the southbound train. (30/10/15)
Substitute....FL 70..015 in for the Colas variant on 6C89 Mount Sorrel-Carlisle storms through Wigan North Western....
Two VIA Rail trains are at Brockville, Ontario on this day with no VIA power to lead. A Canadian National MLW RS-18 has varnish on the mainline while an EMD GP-9 hols on the lead to Smith Falls and Ottawa. I remember some sort of connecting trains that would make moves here. These might have been it. I believe a small engine house or facility was here to house the Ottawa power. These Ottawa trains eventually were LRC strongholds that came straight from Toronto.

As the IHB sees a sudden surge in traffic, two former NS GP38-2s are filling in at Gibson building autorack trains. IHB 5627 is seen here hard at work on the West end.
If you had to put a freight engine as a substitute on a passenger train, I doubt you could do much better than this. Rio Grande GP30 No. 3002, built by EMD for the D&RGW in April 1962, brings train No 18 to a stop to load passengers in Provo, Utah the morning of May 18, 1979.
Now class, my name is Mr. Winter and I will be your substitute teacher for the next few weeks.

At least I'll get my washing done
This Empire Builder left CHI with Charger 300 leading and this OLS unit trailing. Due to a malfunction, they were swapped out on the east side of Whitefish, Montana. Here, the train has finally made it into Whitefish depot and is doing it’s station work. I hope Amtrak purchased the extended warranty package on those Chargers?!
While F9A No. 5771 undergoes a rebuilt and repaint in Denver, GP40-2 No. 3123 substitutes on the Rio Grande Zephyr train No. 17 pictured between Colton and Soldier Summit the evening of June 23, 1979.

Yes, I was watching "Mythbusters"
Stepping in for the failed steam, 47746 climbs Grayrigg Bank with 'The Cumbrian Mountain Express', the 06.59 Crewe - Carlisle on Sat 28th August 2021.
For the second year in a row (!!) my May storm chasing trip to the US Tornado Alley was cancelled. A ridge of high pressure (called a 'Death Ridge' by storm chasers - not because it is possibly deadly to people, but because it's deadly to supercell activity) sat across the US Midwest the week I was supposed to chase.
In an effort to make lemonade out of lemons, I kept my flights to Denver and went exploring in eastern Colorado and Kansas, photographing grain elevators. The shorted trip (just 6 days) turned out to be quite a good one and sure beat staying at home, doing nothing!
Strasburg, Colorado, United States.
This trip to eastern Colorado and Kansas was a substitute (lemonade from lemons, if you will) for a storm chasing trip that same week that got cancelled. It turned out to be a lovely little trip. If you'd like to read about the trip and see some behind the scenes pics and video, take a look at my blog post about the Lemonade from Lemons tour. You can see all the images from the trip in my Colorado and Kansas album.
I sometimes wonder whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.

An image from our photography workshop in rural Nevada last week.
A local told us that two features nearby have been closed, fenced off by the ranchers, due to excessive litter. Consider the impact of location disclosure before you contribute to the trashing of the places you visit and photograph. Don't think you can just sneak in either. One of the places we visited had a game cam set up. Smile, you're on Candid Camera (Google it)!

C-GCJL, an Airbus A320-214, on approach to runway 23 at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.
It was arriving as FLE644 (Flair Airlines Ltd., operated by Canada Jetlines Operations Ltd.) from Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Serial number 4175 first flew on January 25, 2010 and began its career as N417AV with Avianca on February 11, 2010. It was later operated as TC-DCJ by Pegasus Airlines.
We heard on the news that due to the pandemic, our online food deliveries were likely to have a lot of substitutes in the coming days. And indeed we did get a Savoy cabbage instead of a pointed cabbage. Unfortunately it didn't taste half as nice as it looked.
As a late substitute for A4 SNG (which failed the day before) D213 passes the gallery at Culross with Steam Dreams 'Forth Bridge Lunchtime Tour' in lovely conditions - I've never seen the Forth so calm ! 25/11/23
