Tennessee Warbler singing "The Tennessee Waltz" or something like that...who knows?
This is one of my first photos of this species. I've only seen them a few times before, my first being about four years ago and only one individual. This time, no matter what back road we drove up or down, there was one of these characters singing every fifty yards or so.
Tennessee Warbler
An eastbound loaded coal train emerges from Tennessee Pass tunnel behind a trio of Southern Pacific AC4400s. The conductor can be seen walking toward the cab of the second unit, so it's possible there was an issue during the slow climb up from Minturn. This train had the usual mid-train "swing" 3-unit helper set as well as an additional 3 units on the hind end. The helpers would be cut out on the siding here and return to Minturn. Southern Pacific ceased to exist about six months prior to this photo, but you wouldn't know it quite yet. The hind end helper set did include one UP unit in the mix. Regardless, the end was near for operations over Tennessee Pass.

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

My scanner always leaves this funky little line on my scans, or most of them anyway.
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.
Walnut Street Bridge, Chattanooga, Tennessee. This amazing structure serves as one of the premier pedestrian walking bridges in the country. It spans the Tennessee River connecting the Hunter Museum with Coolidge Park. I caught this image very early in the morning just after a rainstorm. The steel, water, lights, wood, and sky blend together to form an interesting composition around this amazing bridge. Architexturefotos - building stories one frame at a time!
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).

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.
