Looking Close... on Friday: Tip

 

On tonight's episode of "Cats Are Perfect": the ear! This delicate, soft little ear possesses 32 muscles (we poor humans only have 6) and allows cats to keep their balance, move their ears 180°, and of course hear 5 times better than us. It never ceases to amaze me how these little killing machines with superfeline powers can be so graceful, elegant, beautiful... and so, so cute! (Incidentally, the cuteness is... not incidental. They share baby-like features with lots of baby animals, which makes us subconsciously attracted to them. But these devious little monsters have also managed to tune their purring to a human baby's cries, triggering our instinct to protect, help... and smooch. We are being totally manipulated. And we love that.)

CPKC is really pushing the limits of their mainline in the Mississippi River floodwaters in downtown Davenport, IA as an empty ballast train heads north with KCS 3967 and KCS 4405.

 

Another northbound would follow the ballast train 1.5 hours later and the mainline will possibly shut down yet today with floodgates closing at Waterworks.

The subject is tip . . .

When in the country I use to find antlers that had been shed, trick is to beat the field mice to the prize. That is my tip of the day on getting antler tips.

The body and caruncle of this species are yellow with a hue of light orange. The papillae and cerata are also this colour except for the tips, which are blue/purple, hence the common name.

Thank you so much in advance for all your amazing kindness and support it really means more than you know . Have a wonderful weekend huge hugs and tons of love my dear friends 💕

You can just see the orange edge of this male Orange Tip wing, the first one of the year for me. This was taken late yesterday afternoon, it was to cold for it to fly, and as the temperatures went down to -4 here last night it was still there this morning. It hasn't got much better through the day, and it is still there now on the end of this white lilac bud,

Anthocharis cardamines (OrangeTip) is a small butterfly belonging to the Pieridae family. They emerge in early April. The males can be easily recognized by the orange tips of their wings which the females don't possess. They can be found throughout Europe and temperate Asia as far as China.

Tips of clouds lit up. They were totally gone as soon as the sun set!

 

This male Orange Tip was taking a few minutes rest on his favourite sprig of Hawthorn, from defending his patch. Orange Tip season seems to be almost over. A shame as I love to see them in spring, and this was a bumper year for them.
