Trust is what a baby feels when he was thrown to the air and smiling in confidence that his dad will catch him for sure.. !

The more we nip over the sty to visit our new arrival the trust seems to be coming along nicely. Today 'Twinky' laid down in front of us & posed for the camera

I took a drive up the Mckenzie river in Oregon yesterday. The peacefulness and beauty of this place never disappoints. This is a easy spot to get to just below Sahalie falls.
There is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one's self, the very meaning of one's soul.
One of my fave quotes.

Completed in 1908, the old Public Trust Building in Lambton Quay, Wellington is the only surviving building made of a true New Zealand granite – from Tonga Bay in north-west Nelson.
In actual fact these are a bit more than everyday chimney pots , quite the posh stacks . Well they would be seeing as they are on Ham House .

Well, you really can't trust these guys, especially if you're a snake or squirrel. But what I'm referring to in my title is "The Raptor Trust" where this guy was nursed back to health. The Trust is essentially a bird hospital where injured raptors and other large birds (usually brought there by nature loving citizens), are nursed and cared for until they can be released back into the wild. The trust is also a permanent home for a dozen or so raptors (including a resident Bald Eagle) that were brought back to good health, but who's injuries were so debilitating they were unable to fend for themselves in the wild. For many years the The Raptor Trust released their patients back into the wild at The Great Swamp (a mile or so from "The Trust") This particular RT is a living testimonial to the good work done at the Raptor Trust, and wears evidence of its successful rehabilitation on its beak, and you can see it's back its old tricks making a living in the wild.
The trust doesn't tag their patients during recovery, so you may wonder how I know this guy was a patient. The secret is to look closely at its feathers where you can see wear on the shoulder feather tips that brushed up against its cage during its recovery.
The trust no longer releases it's patients in The Swamp at the request of the NPS who feared The Swamp was being over populated by The Trust's old patients. So these days, people friendly hawks are a little harder to come by at the swamp, and the squirrels, voles and snakes are a whole lot happier about that!
The Union Trust Buildling in Pittsburgh. Its from the 17th floor of the Allegheny Building across the street in winter. I see it all day and finally went over to find out what's there. The security guard, Mr. Little, was very knowledgeable about its history explaining that the internal and external facade has been preserved over the years while the offices themselves have been modernized.
Alas, as the building is currently for sale, I was not allowed to take pictures inside or view most of the building.
What I was allowed to see is one of the largest bank vaults on the east coast housed in the basement. The door is a single ~3 foot thick, ~9 foot diameter piece of steel that cracked the brick streets when they hauled it in.
As for the little chapel structures pictures here? They house elevator equipment. :(

It's just starting to come round to spring again now. More uploads will follow when things start to emerge en masse
In the mean time, have a look at my other (mostly non-wildlife) photostream: Adamhawtin2
