When I came downstairs this morning this crane fly was still wrigging, but there's no escape from my venus fly trap. It's currently holding six flies!
The pack basket is a long standing tradition of beaver trapping. Perfectly sized for a beaver, and whatever traps and other gear you may have to carry in and out of a remote location.
After yesterday's buckle shinin', another new American word for me to learn was 'bobtail'.
Bobtailing is when a semi-truck is traveling without an attached trailer. This can occur when a semi-truck is in the process of picking up a trailer (and has no trailer to deliver) or is returning from delivery (and has no trailer to pick up). Bobtails are a common sight on Texas highways.
Once again, James McMurtry's lyrics are spot on. Unfortunately if you follow the song to the end, there is a sad ending.
"She's been green breaking horses when she's home from the road,
Waiting on dispatch to find her a load.
She leased all but the trap, ponies can't graze a thing,
Another bobtail of coastal ought to last them 'til spring.
Randy says not to worry, he'll feed while she's gone.
She's got the Freightliner idling half up on his lawn.
He don't like her driving when the northers come blue
But if the horses went hungry Lord knows what she'd do"

Khalei Holbert 13 of Eaton NY
Mike Williams 47 of Cazenovia NY
Trapping nuisance beavers in the Village of Hamilton. Permit obtained due to the beavers plugging up pipes that flood out walking trails and cause issues with the commercial property. Williams also taught Holbert how to skin. Holbert is in her first year of hunting and trapping, she is learning from a great group of people.

Trapped myself in a bubble this afternoon, thought I'd better take a pic. :D
No seriously, this is another one of my potential entries for the EOS Photo5. This pic is around 20 images focus stacked as well as the one of me in the bubble photoshopped in.
I'm fairly happy with my photoshopping job here but I think there is still something a little off. But what... ?
Any comments appreciated! :D
Also looks better on the black BG.
Enjoy...
PIC BY KATHARINA HILGERS / CATERS NEWS - (Pictured: Mother tries to pull trapped baby elephant out of watering hole) - A photographer has captured the heart-breaking moment a mother elephant valiantly tries to free her baby trapped in a waterhole. The emotional scenes saw the young elephant stuck, coated up to its neck in mud, while the mother used her trunk to try and pull it to safety. Photographer Katharina Hilgers watched on as the scene unfolded at Addo Elephant Nation Park in Eastern Cape, South Africa, last month. The struggle between the mother and her baby went on for some time, leaving Katharina frustrated, as no progress was being made. - SEE CATERS COPY

Part of a massive cocoon above a path at Wilton Slopes in Granville County, North Carolina. It was a collector of natural debris and detritus, offering a fascinating texture. The cocoon was there for a long time but has since vanished.

This wasp had become trapped on a disused spider's web. It was still alive but trapped by one wing, so when I freeing it didn't do much good as it was damaged.
I drove and drove- two hours ended up here. Turned the music up, then off. I loved the way these trees framed this building-- jumped out of the car in the freeze--- here it is.
It's been restored. It's now protected by a plastic cover but that traps the damp so it's gone a bit mouldy. I wonder how much that will affect the auction price when some crim comes and chops it off the wall to sell.
I spit reality, instead of what you usually learn
and I refuse to be concerned with condescending advice
cause I am the only motherfucker that could change my life

Richard Marsh, Chief Executive of The Factory Youth Zone, Anne Coffey MP and Detective Chief Superintendent Mary Doyle.
Greater Manchester Police has launched a campaign to stop criminal gangs from grooming children and vulnerable adults to commit crime, alongside local authorities, Greater Manchester Combined Authority, young people and an MP.
The campaign, known as ‘Trapped’, aims to raise awareness of criminals who are grooming and exploiting children and young adults to commit crime on their behalf.
Offenders take victims from urban areas to the countryside or coastal areas to sell drugs. Sometimes victims are trafficked closer to home, and are moved around Greater Manchester.
As well as drug dealing, victims are sometimes asked to carry out other forms of criminal activity such as arson, violent offences, storing firearms, holding money, criminal damage or assault.
Offenders use coercive behaviour to threaten and exploit victims and their families.
Victims can become trapped in a spiral of debt and intimidation but there is a way out and today police are joining local authorities, school representatives and community groups at Factory Youth Zone in Harpurhey to take a stand against these types of exploitation.
Chief Superintendent Mary Doyle from GMP’s Serious Crime Division said: “Offenders use intimidation to exploit and control children and vulnerable adults to carry out criminal activity on their behalf.
"People they are targeting are often singled out because they may have a troubled life at home, are in the care system or are being bullied and looking for protection.
“Those being subjected to these hideous crimes are victims, not criminals, and I want to reassure anybody who feels trapped that there is a way out and we will listen to what you have to say.”
Ann Coffey, MP for Stockport and Chair of the All Party Group for Runaway and Missing Children, said: “Children are being used by gangs who are making millions of pounds a year selling illegal drugs.
“These criminal cowards hide behind children and get them to do their dirty work.
“As the gangs expand into new markets more and more children are being drawn into this frightening life, which often ends in drug addiction, debt and brutal violence.
“Communities, schools, parents and agencies must all work together with the police to raise awareness of this gross exploitation and to prevent more children's lives being ruined.”
Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime, Baroness Beverley Hughes, said: “The exploitation of another human being for personal gain is vile and unforgivable. That many of those exploited are vulnerable children is especially abhorrent, and we will do all we can to prevent children and young people falling prey to these criminals.
“Whether a young person or an adult, help is available, and the police and other partner agencies are working together to support victims and bring those responsible to justice. This campaign will help people recognise when they are being targeted for exploitation and tell them how to get help and report it.”
Richard Marsh Chief Executive of The Factory Youth Zone said: “The ‘Trapped’ campaign is really important as child exploitation damages the lives and life chances of a significant number people of young people across greater Manchester. Youth Workers and young people have created four pieces of art to tell the story of how this has impacted upon young people with whom The Factory Youth Zone has worked.
“We want to share our experience and to discuss the impact this issue has on young people, we want to look to solutions that mean young people can grow up without being subjected to exploitation.”
Some signs that a young or vulnerable person could be ‘Trapped’ and need help are:
- Young people going missing and travelling to seaside or market towns
- School absence or missing from school
- Money, clothes or accessories which they are unable to account for
- Receiving an excessive amount of texts and phone calls
- Relationships with controlling / older individuals or groups
- Carrying weapons
- Significant decline in school results / performance
- Self-harm or significant changes in emotional wellbeing
Anyone with concerns either about themselves or somebody else should contact Greater Manchester Police on 101 in a non-emergency situation or report anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
Always dial 999 when there is an immediate threat to life or a crime in progress.
