Some cattail (Typhaceae) plants, or possibly one connected plant, in a small swamp at a rest area along Interstate 81, in Tennessee, USA.

Isn't God a great artist? Thank you for looking.

Franklin Industrial Minerals' Rockwood turn rolls downgrade through the tunnel above Rockwood, TN after a heavy summer downpour. Can't even tell it's a leaser!

My scanner always leaves this funky little line on my scans, or most of them anyway.

NS T21 crosses the Tennessee River bridge with the University of Tennessee in the background.

I wish each of you a great new week.

From a few springs ago

On our way back home from a photography vacation with my son in 2017, we stopped at the Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. I shot this with very low light and almost deleted it. However, today I decided to see what I could so with it. I guess I like it enough to keep.

At Florence, Alabama

The Tennessee Warbler was first described in the State of Tennessee. One that isn't as bright as the others but pretty never the less.

The first light of day in the hills near Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

HFF! Have a great weekend everyone!

Paducah and Louisville coal train PNX1 crosses the Tennessee River at Kentucky Dam near Grand Rivers, KY. PNX1 features a P&L slug set, an A&O GP38-2, and 2 new P&L SD70M’s leading TVA loads from Warrior. The train is bound for the dumper at Calvert City Terminal where CCT will blend western Kentucky coal with Powder River Basin coal to make a special mix for nearby TVA plants (Gallatin, Cumberland, Shawnee).

Pulaski Local departs Columbia

Galveston Texas during migration

A straggler, headed to Central and South America. Taken at Mills River Park, NC.

Another one of our late departing warblers. This one and several other warblers are still hanging around St John's in spite of the cold weather. This warbler was catching several flies by the water.

The image was taken in a dark river valley using a high speed, hence some photoshopping to get rid of the noise (and unfortunately some detail).

Reliance Tennessee

Tennessee Southern's Pulaski job glides past one of many beautiful family farms just south of Columbia, TN.

The floodgates are open at the Chickamauga Dam in Chattanooga, TN as relentless rainfall has flooded the Southeast. NS train 64Q eases over the Tennessee River bridge (TennBridge) and has completed its run down the CNO&TP.

The birch tree is such a favourite with the migrating birds. Hope the tree lasts for a few more years.

This Tennessee Warbler appears a bit bedraggled in the midst of bathing, but once this important maintenance behaviour was completed the bird perched on a small branch to dry off and preen. This scene took place in Confederation Park, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Graunke park

This young Tennessee Warbler stopped at the Metro Park on its way through migrating south for the winter.

NS 101 crosses the Tennessee River in Bridgeport, Alabama with an SD70ACC leader and a cool crew. I am standing on the parallel, but out of service, former railroad bridge, now a walking bridge.
