Hier, je suis resté 4 heures pour assister à cette belle scène de vie animalière que j'affectionne particulièrement car ce sont des oiseaux que j'aime beaucoup observer à distance..!!

Les grèbes se relaient sur le nid et le consolide...

Il y a quatre oeufs ....

 

Il faudra attendre la naissance des grèbes huppés.....

C'est la première couvée de ces grèbes huppés.

J'espère assister aux naissances.

  

Le Grèbe huppé niche entre avril et juillet.

À cette époque, les adultes portent une double huppe et des oreillettes brunes encadrant la tête.

  

Le nid peut reposer sur un fond vaseux mais il est conçu en principe pour affleurer la surface.

Il peut également flotter mais il est alors arrimé à une souche ou à un paquet de végétaux entremêlés.

 

Les adultes en garnissent la coupe peu profonde de végétaux qui servent à recouvrir les œufs si les adultes s'absentent du nid. La ponte est composée de 3 à 6 œufs blancs qui virent ensuite au brun et deviennent de ce fait plus discrets.

 

Les adultes couvent en se relayant toutes les quelques heures. L'éclosion intervient au bout de 28 jours.

 

Les jeunes sont capables de nager aussitôt mais ils restent dépendants de leurs parents plusieurs semaines.

 

Un grand merci à toutes et tous pour vos visites et vos commentaires qui sont toujours très appréciés.

Yesterday, I stayed 4 hours to attend this beautiful scene of animal life that I particularly like because they are birds that I really like to observe from a distance..!!

The grebes take turns on the nest and consolidate it...

There are four eggs...

 

We will have to wait for the birth of the great crested grebes.....

This is the first brood of these great crested grebes.

I hope to attend the births.

  

The Great Crested Grebe nests between April and July.

At this time, adults wear a double crest and brown ear flaps framing their heads.

  

The nest can rest on a muddy bottom but it is designed in principle to be flush with the surface.

It can also float but it is then secured to a stump or a bundle of intertwined plants.

 

The adults fill the shallow cup with plants which are used to cover the eggs if the adults are absent from the nest. The laying is composed of 3 to 6 white eggs which then turn brown and therefore become more discreet.

 

Adults brood taking turns every few hours. Hatching occurs after 28 days.

 

The young are able to swim immediately but they remain dependent on their parents for several weeks.

 

A big thank you to all of you for your visits and your comments which are always very much appreciated.

 

C 'est toujours émouvant d'assister à une naissance...!!!!

J'ai eu cette chance de voir naître le dernier des 5 œufs en direct. 👀

 

It is always moving to attend a birth ...

I was lucky to see the last 5 eggs being born live ... 👀

 

Le Grèbe huppé niche entre avril et juillet.

 

À cette époque, les adultes portent une double huppe et des oreillettes brunes encadrant la tête.

  

Le Grèbe huppé est un oiseau des étangs, des cours d'eau lents, des marais, des lacs, des réservoirs artificiels, des gravières inondées, des estuaires et d'autres lieux similaires.

 

Pour nicher, il apprécie particulièrement les plans d'eau ceinturés de roseaux fournis et il a besoin de végétation palustre assez épaisse parmi laquelle il place son nid flottant.

 

La ponte est composée de 3 à 6 œufs blancs qui virent ensuite au brun et deviennent de ce fait plus discrets.

 

Les adultes couvent en se relayant toutes les quelques heures.

 

L'éclosion intervient au bout de 28 jours.

 

Les jeunes sont capables de nager aussitôt mais ils restent dépendants de leurs parents plusieurs semaines.

The Mayor requested my help to assist him in finding all the lumps and bumps and holes on the roads of New Victory and we found quite a few. One particular bump almost threw me out onto the ground!

 

This got me thinking and I have come up with a smashing invention...A belt that could be sewn onto the seat with a buckle to secure my bottom to the seat. I will call my new invention a Seat Belt.... (runs off to the patent office).

AI-assisted digital painting with Night Cafe, TouchRetouch, and Procreate.

 

In some ways, I suppose it’s an open question as to whether I am the artist here. For the most part, the image was composed by the AI. I upscaled it, I adjusted color and shading, and refined the details.

 

Still, the base image did not exist until I called it into existence. In times past artists have thrown paint on a canvas and called it art. There is technique to that. Likewise, there is technique to driving the AI to produce the base image, and in refining the image after the AI produces it.

Please help others spay/neuter and assist the cat population from despair.

Sally took this (& the previous one) for me to show my mother that Puddy and I are making friends. Puddy was my mother's cat, and came to live with us a month ago--when my mother moved to assisted living. This is huge, because Puddy has never let me pet her in the ~10 years I've known her (& she would usually draw blood if I tried!).

Sempre un problema trovare il look giusto!

Sono indecisa se lasciare i capelli sciolti oppure legarli.

Alla fine improvviso uno chignon che dia un pò di personalità al mio look troppo da brava ragazza.

Un tocco di rosso sulle labbra, ed eccomi pronta per assistere al concerto di musica classica.

Il programma annuncia una serenata di Mozart; non sono una specialista nè una appassionata di musica classica ma non vedo l'ora che la serata inizi!

Avrò fatto la scelta giusta?

Conrail EMD SD40 Nos. 6280 and 6277 helper locomotives are on the rear of an eastbound freight, assisting with braking on the Allegheny Mountains crossing west of Altoona, Pennsylvania, on October 21, 1988. The train is rolling through famous Horseshoe Curve, and besides helping the train downgrade, it’s a convenient way to get the helper units back to Altoona for another push.

1948 Tucker

Some might say that Preston Tucker was a genius, and whether that's true, or not, is certainly debatable. But, I think we all could agree that he was a visionary with his car, and it's design. Advanced concepts that would take years and even decades for other car manufacturers to follow suit with, if at all. Air cooled rear engines, front wheel drive, electric assist manual transmission shifter, safety features largely unheard of in production cars at the time. Features like pop out windshield in the event of an accident, disc brakes, seat belts, padded dash, front right passenger safety zone, a third headlight that moved as the car turned, surely, I missed some. Some of these already had found a home in his first effort, the '48, and if he had remained in business his later models would have included those items not yet on the 48. The car I will show over the next series of shots was present at the annual Lime Rock Labor Day event in '24. It happens to be the 44th one produced out of the 51 he made before he, and his company got into trouble. The Big 3 had to be threatened by Preston's dream car, and one has to wonder what role they had played in Tucker's eventual demise? What made seeing this car special at the show was a chance to meet and talk with Tucker's great grandsons, twins I believe, and they had brought number 44 to the show.

Still sporting its Queensland Rail livery from 20 years ago, 3557 and 3546, with 3515, 3545 and 3509 assisting, heading for Dalrymple Bay with a loaded Aurizon coal train from the Goonyella system as EV28 through Yukan.

 

Introduced between 1986 and 1988, the 3500/3600 class were built by Walkers Limited in Maryborough, QLD for Queensland Rail. Initially they were built as either command or slave units, hence the difference in class numbers, with the 3600's being slave units (unable to lead trains). Today they reside as the 3500 class and are a mix of 3500, 3600 or even 3900 classes, which were modified for use on passenger or general freight only.

 

Time is running out for these fluted stainless steel units, with their withdrawal anticipated over the next 5 years, bringing them to 40 years of service. Several members are already stored from service and only a few rakes remain operational on the Goonyella system. Their tractive effort of 3,880hp with DC traction motors, results in them needing to operate with 5 per train, whereas the upgraded 3700 or newly built 3800 class, only require 3, owing to their significantly better output of 5,360hp using AC traction. Because of this, the 3700 and 3800 classes can be mixed, however the 3500 class are limited to themselves.

Suresh Pattali:

Suresh Pattali, a film and theatre activist, or as Paul Zacharia, the Editor of Economic Times and his former colleague rightly stated," a film buff and libertarian"; worked as a producer in Asianet when I met him.

Suresh assisted the renowned Indian filmmaker Muzaffar Ali in making classic movies like 'Gaman' and 'Umrao Jaan' and has worked with noted singer Kishore Kumar and Popular music director Salil Choudhury. He was too humble a human being to read one's character and get close within no time.

I met him first, in 2000, at his office in the Asianet Studio complex at Puliyarakonam in Trivandrum. He was very eager to listen to my album 'Simple Truth' and knew it was in the final stage of completion. He was too busy in the studio that I waited from 4 pm to about 6 pm as he occasionally makes an appearance and apologizes for making me wait and leaves after making sure that I am comfortable. Someone would want him when he joins me, and as I was not in any hurry, I asked him to take his time. When he hastily joined me at about 6 pm, I told him that I have a rough copy of 'Simple Truth' in my car. The moment he heard that he just walked out of the studio with his hand on my shoulder. He sat beside me in the car, we closed the doors, and I played the tape.

Before the music started, he asked, "What about a ride?". I nodded, and we drove out to the nearly desolate roads in the suburbs of Trivandrum. When the music started, I noticed that he is gazing at my face. With a smile, when I turned and looked at him, he asked," You did this ?". I said "Yes", and his astonished expression is the first and best compliment I ever received. I drove aimlessly while he keenly and mutely listened to all the 12 songs in the album. Later I dropped him at his house, which is just about a kilometre away from his workplace.

The very next day, I received a call from him inviting me to his house, and I visited him sometime in the afternoon. His interest in music and his memory amazed me as he started describing how he visualized one of the songs that he heard the previous day. It was late afternoon, and he was yet to have his lunch. I understood he's drunk, but he appeared perfect and very much in his senses. I told him that I would wait until he has his lunch. Within a few minutes, he returned with an egg omelette for me. I didn't refuse as I knew he prepared it just for me. It was too salty to consume, and when I was struggling with it, he joined me munching his omelette and said, "Too much salt, right? I don't have any more eggs left, else I would have made fresh ones". After spending some time discussing the script, I left following his assurance to contact me soon. The next day he called me for further talks, and we fixed a local club for the next meeting the same evening.

He ordered a few drinks and narrated his Mumbai cinema experiences. The modesty of the Popular singer Kishore Kumar, the friendliness of the great musician Salil Chowdhury, and the simplicity of the renowned actress Smita Patil. The humbleness of Kishore Kumar during recordings and the prowess of Salil Chowdhury to compose 'boatman' songs.

He respected and appreciated me for being a teetotaller, and never did he behave drunk with me. I reminded him that it's getting too late and offered to drop him at his house. On the way back, he asked, "Anuj, which is your most favourite song? ". I replied that it's a tough question as I have so many favourites." My favourite English song is, 'Still I'm Sad' by Boney M", he said. After a pause, he continued, "Do you know ' Chingari Koi Bhadke '?". I said, "Yes, I love that song." He asked, "Can you sing it ? "and I replied, " Sorry, I have never tried it". Again after a pause, he said, "Please hum it ". I hummed the tune in its original pitch, and he started singing along in a feeble voice. I drove listening to his rendition, which was indeed beautiful. He remained quiet after that, and I dropped him home at about midnight.

Within a few days, he invited me to judge a talent search programme conducted by Asianet for college students, named 'Talent Scan 2000'. I accepted the request and appeared for the programme at Victoria Jubilee Town Hall on the stipulated date and time. He introduced me to the crew, and my role was to judge Western Music. After the programme, he thanked me and promised to be in touch.

He called me after a few days and asked me whether we shall meet sometime in the evening. I agreed, and he said he would call later to fix the venue and time. He called again in the evening to tell me that he's having one of his old friends along with him and asked whether it's fine with me. I said it's all right, and I invited him to one of the most prestigious clubs in town, where I have a membership. I booked a table on the lawn and waited for him.

He had few drinks like earlier, but his friend started gulping like a thirsty cow, loudly declared that he's a Maoist, and proudly started to swank his profanity proficiency. While Suresh commanded him to behave, in an attempt to move his chair backwards, the dhoti-clad Maoist fell aback bare, along with his chair. The waiters on duty are used to such displays, but they appeared shocked as they never expected such guests with me. I asked Suresh whether we shall leave. I have never seen him angry, and he didn't lose his cool even when his friend irritated him. He said we would move, but his friend refused to come. I thought of seeking help from the waiters and security to carry him to the car.

Finally, he agreed to move when Suresh 'promised' to take him to some distinct wine bar.

I was a bit apprehensive whether he would attempt to jump out of the moving car as we proceeded towards the hotel where he stays. Once we reached the hotel, he refused to get off the car. Suresh somehow managed to pull him out, and on the street, he loudly started to demonstrate his imprecation skills. I saw Suresh with a grim face for the first time, but still, he didn't lose his cool. Swiftly, he hopped into the car and signalled me to accelerate fast. I did that, and his friend was staggering from behind, trying to chase us as we sped away. Suresh didn't utter a word after that. I dropped him home, and though he didn't apologize, I could see that apologetic look in his weary eyes when he bid me goodbye.

I phoned him early in the morning to check whether his friend is all right. He told me that his friend was nabbed by the police the previous night, and he has to get him released.

I asked him to relax and promised to call him in the evening.

I called him in the evening, and an unfamiliar voice picked up the call.

I asked, " Suresh, Is that you? ".

The stranger from the other end replied, " Suresh passed away. He vomited blood, and we took him to the hospital but couldn't save him".

उसे कौन बचाये"
