Calmly taking in the rugged scenery. Mountain goats love rock mountains, this place must seem like they have arrived in heaven to the herd.

The one on the right is a Boreal Chickadee that I have seen it for the first time (Life Bird# 451). The one on the left is a friendly Black-capped Chickadee that is abundant in our area. Because of large color variation the Boreal Chickadee was very easy to pick up from a large group of Black-capped Chickadee that it was hanging out with. Note how the white patch on its cheek is so much smaller than the Black-capped. Darlington Provincial Park, Durham, Ontario

"Two of us riding nowhere

Spending someone's

Hard earned pay

You and me Sunday driving

Not arriving

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home

Two of us sending postcards

Writing letters

On my wall

You and me burning matches

Lifting latches

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home

You and I have memories

Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats

Standing solo

In the sun

You and me chasing paper

Getting nowhere

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home

You and I have memories

Longer than the road that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats

Standing solo

In the sun

You and me chasing paper

Getting nowhere

On our way back home

We're on our way home

We're on our way home

We're going home

We're going home

Better believe it."

Waiting for a good wave. Another one of those photos where I didn't instantly see what was there. Interestingly - they seem to be fairly sharp, even though the exposure was more than a second. Not only is this a testament to the image stabilisation powers of the OM1, as I shot this handheld, it also says something about the surfers' stillness in the water as they waited for their wave.

If you are looking at this on a small screen it is very possible that the title will be a complete mystery but I promise there are in fact two surfers in the picture.

NYC, 2022

I like using the spectre app if I see good sky and don't have my gear just my iPhone.

To commemorate the two years since Ironbridge Power Station closed I thought I would post the landscape shot of 66 716 departing the power station on closure day 20 November 2015. With some wisps of steam still being emitted from the cooling towers, the station would be shut down at 2.30pm by, former employee, Mike Smith. The shed was working 4Z61 12.00 Ironbridge Power Station to Hexthorpe Yard, moving three cripple wagons. This shot hadn't been on for quite some time but an hour with a pair of secateurs, note the freshly cut branches over the right hand cooling tower, made sure it could be recorded.

Doris Day - Tea For Two

www.youtube.com/watch?v=fi1yOsqDXew

Oh honey, picture me upon your knee

With tea for two and two for tea

Just me for you

And you for me alone

Nobody near us

To see us or hear us

No friends or relations

On weekend vacations

We won't have it known, dear

That we own a telephone, dear

Day will break and I'm gonna wake

And start to bake a sugar cake

For you to take

For all the boys to see

We will raise a family

A boy for you and a girl for me

Can't you see how happy we will be?

Picture you upon my knee

Tea for two and two for tea

I don't know why you lot are so cheery you have two poplar bears behind you.

from a friend. Thanks, Christine!
