The Otra is the largest river in the Sørlandet region of Norway. It begins in Setesdalsheiene mountains at the lake Breidvatnet in Bykle municipality in Agder county, just south of the border with Vinje municipality in Telemark county.
The river then flows south through Bykle, Valle, Bygland, Evje og Hornnes, Iveland, Vennesla, and Kristiansand municipalities.
The river empties into the Skagerrak in the center of the city of Kristiansand on the southern coast of Norway.
The Otra is 245 kilometres (152 mi) long, making it Norway's eighth-longest river. There are many large lakes along the river including: Åraksfjorden, Byglandsfjorden, Hartevatnet, and Kilefjorden. There are 12 hydroelectric power plants built along the river, which produce much of the electricity for the southern part of Norway.
The salmon do well in the Otra river because the water is not too acidic.
The calcareous rocks in the catchment area at the northern end of the Setesdal valley give the water a certain buffer capacity against acidification.

Locomotive 943 was built by the Mitsubishi Company of Japan in 1950 and was installed at the park after retirement in 1987 to signifify the friendly relations between Thailand and Japan. It also reminds visitors that the park was once an active railway yard.

If buffers and chains scare you and you think trains do not exist outside of the US and Canada it might be a good time to unfollow. However if you like high hood ALCO's in exotic scenery then stay tuned. I took a 10 day long trip to India last week, officially for a wedding but of course being in the land of ALCO I had to get in some railfanning. Here Mhow-Khandwa Junction train 52975 eases down the steep Choral hill section on one of the last surviving meter gauge lines in the country.

On 11/02/19 5Z50 0945 Etches Park-Neville Hill passes Draycott with 4 buffer fitted Angel Trains power cars 43423 43467 43484 43468. The train terminated at Trent loop due to a fleet issue and returned to Etches Park for attention, before making a second successful attempt to get to NL, leaving Derby around lunchtime.
Matkasur has been an iconic tiger of core and buffer zones of the park. He has glorious past and now in his late life surviving with the learnings of his exceptional past. Guides say that he is cornered in the periphery of the park by young males and roams in buffer area, survives solely on cattle kills and gather strength to overpower other males. He is fathering two cubs of a tigress called Sharmily. He should be more that 12 years by now.
Ths Epic Battle!
In the March of 2018 Tadoba witnessed the epic battle between a tiger and sloth bear. The entire world probably is still in awe when they watch the bear match the tiger -for once Matkasur had to concede defeat. No wonder experts speak highly about a bear’s fur and claws as Matkasur was forced to leave the bear alone! He may have defeated powerful male tigers but here he had to surrender to the will power of a mother protecting her young.
Killing of Forest Guard!
In May of 2017 Matkasur killed a person who was on census duty and had squatted behind a bush to relieve himself. Speculations ran high whether Matkasur would be branded a man-eater or not. As per government guidelines, there has to be three killings before a tiger is labelled a man-eater. Matkasur was given the benefit of doubt- also he did not eat the body. Some experts feel when humans squat, tigers often get confused and accidentally kills thinking them to be monkeys or deer both of whom are regular prey. Most of the time it is a case of mistaken identity.

165024 trundles into Wolverton works as 08649 (red buffer beam) and 08629 (yellow buffer beam) look on.
This started out as a low angle shot of openings in a closet door vent. I experimented with color and texture and ended up with this abstract.

What looks to be buffer fitted 43013 is seen heading a Virgin Cross Country service past Newport ADJ Yard as the evening shadows lengthen. Yard shunters 09203 and 09105 can just be seen taking a break from their duties. The yard looked full on this day, taken circa 1998.

The blue connection , the Pendrechtse mill
The construction of the blue connection began in 2012 and continues until 2020.
It will be a special connection between the South Park in Rotterdam , the future landscape Buijtenland in Rhoon and Zuidpolder in Barendrecht , South Holland , the Netherlands .
It will be a complete recreational navigable route to and at the same time functions as an ecological connection between the green areas in and around Rotterdam . The blue connection, also ensures clean water that comes from the Oude Maas and serves as a climate buffer .
A grand project , which is something different than the mega buildings major cities normally construct.
The blue connection is a recreational route for people with their canoes , small rowing boats and electric little boats and also is an attractive place for swimmers and fishermen. The shorelines are made as naturally as possible.
The plant and animal life to flourish will come through this connection. It's a matter of time before we can identify the beaver. There already live rabbits , bats , songbirds and waterfowl in the area. In addition to the herons , we can also find the spoonbill and they even hope that the bittern returns. Highland cattle is grazing in the Koedood , which is also a part of this structure .
The Pendrechtse Mill is a true photographic attraction in the Southern Border Park , the part of the connection between Rotterdam and Barendrecht . This is mainly because the sunset and sunrise, during a few weeks each year , are behind the mill
Areas to enjoy , photograph and just that piece of nature that we need in our overpopulated country.
De blauwe verbinding , de Pendrechtse molen
De aanleg van de blauwe verbinding startte in 2012 en gaat door tot 2020.
Het gaat een bijzondere verbinding worden tussen het Zuiderpark in Rotterdam, het toekomstige landschapspark het Buijtenland in Rhoon en de Zuidpolder in Barendrecht, in Zuid-Holland , Nederland.
Het moet een compleet recreatieve bevaarbare route worden en tegelijkeertijd fuctioneren als een ecologische verbinding tussen de verschillende groengebieden in en om Rotterdam. Ook zorgt de blauwe verbinding voor schoon water, wat afkomstig is van de Oude Maas en dient het als klimaatbuffer.
Een groots project, wat wel even iets anders is dan de megagebouwen die de grote steden normaliter neerzetten.
De blauwe verbinding , of aansluiting, wordt een vaarroute voor recreanten met hun kano’s, kleine roei- en elektrische motorbootjes. Ook is de verbinding een aantrekkelijke plek voor zwemmers en sportvissers. De oevers worden natuurlijk ingericht.
Het planten en dierenleven zal tot een grote bloei komen door deze verbinding. Het is een kwestie van tijd voordat we de bever kunnen signaleren. Er leven al konijnen, vleermuizen, zang- en watervogels in het gebied. Naast de reigers, kunnen we ook de lepelaar vinden en ze hopen zelfs dat de roerdomp terugkeert. Schotse Hooglanders grazen in de Koedood, wat ook een onderdeel van deze structuur is.
De Pendrechtse Molen is een ware fotografische attractie in het Zuidelijk Randpark, het deel van de verbinding wat tussen Rotterdam en Barendrecht ligt. Dit komt vooral omdat, gedurende enkele weken per jaar, de zonsondergang en zonsopkomst de molen prachtig tot zijn recht laten komen.
Gebieden om van te genieten, te fotograferen en net dat stuk natuur wat we in ons overbevolkte land nodig hebben.
