I reported my encounter with the banded Piping Plover (see below in comments) in Texas to the USGS. They told me it would be 2-4 weeks to hear back, but I just got the info back on this cute little plover. It was banded in 2012 in North Dakota so looks like it is about 4 years old.

I know, decluttering or neatening can be and often is overwhelming. Especially during this COVID-19 pandemic. My Aide, Heather, insists I make three piles, the third pile being
'3. Not Sure'
Here is my shortened process:
1. Discard Now!
2. Must keep and I know where to put it (30 second limit to think of a place or it goes to the Discard Now pile.)
Much to my surprise, I have discovered that once an item is discarded, I never regret or miss it. And it feels so good to have a completely decluttered area‼️🌹
Please understand that this certificate is part of a work of appreciation that I do between my wife and me.
The photos that I choose, enter into a photographic quality analysis within the different modalities and if they are artistically fit within what is "photography".
My job is to analyze the quality of the photo, its framing, dynamics, artistic style, perspective, color balance, light compensation and mainly the edition.
The work my wife does is to analyze the effect of the visual balance and the process of psychic acceptance within the natural phenomena of consciousness.
This is to give you some kind of appreciative motivation in your photographs, "which I consider to be of great value for everyone who receives a certificate"
This critical work that we do in private and without attacking the sensitivity of people, is done between my wife and me.
We are based on an emotional motivation and of course without any kind of monetary or recognition interest.

Recientemente he recibido la noticia, lo que deseaba compartir con vosotros, de que mi serie llamada "Shorelines" ha recibido una Mención de Honor en el prestigioso Concurso Internacional de Fotografía (IPA2011).
Gracias a todos por vuestros comentarios y críticas que me sirven para seguir progresando.
I recently received the news that I took one Honorable Mentionin the prestigious International Photography Awards 2011 (IPA2011) in the Fine Art-Landscape category with my "Shorelines" series images.
Many thanks for all your comments and feedback. Much appreciated.
Images form "Shorelines" series images:
Two Minutes in a Dangerous Position
The last image has not been published. Will be published this early month of September.
Finding some shady spots out here is difficult - few and far between. At least this tree shade will last for a couple of months on from this spot, which would include our disastrous August. The prairie grasses looked great 200 years ago. No wonder why the buffalo prospered out here until the whites stole Indian lands and pointlessly wiped both out. At least it has a new white roof that should allow working inside. Here is a view of the working farm on my way out to my fave north 19th barn near Colorado's first railroad, the Denver Pacific and the St. Vrain river valley far behind in the background. It is near the aborted nuclear St. Vrain power plant on the horizon, right. Apparently Public Service of Colorado were smarter than Gulf Western engineers and they ended up building a nuke plant that could not pas certification. I knew a sheet metal worker who worked there and said they will never be able to operate the plant.
What do they expect for any future farming? Plastic foods just like the plastic fencing they are using. Is desertification in the valley the next stop on the drive toward maximum human civilization density? Take the money, build prairie castles and run. Water bluegrass with the river. We don't need no steenkin agriculture. Industrrial plants can manufacture our foods.
The confluence with the South Platte River is just beyond this view, past the nuke plant on the horizon, right. The railroad was built there with a U.P. RR nod toward increasing Cheyenne traffic and support as a "land grant" railroad. The old grade is a historic memorial trail now so I guess it is entirely walk-able for pix. Later, when it cools to near normal. After the UP RR absorbed the DP RR, they named it the "Dent Branch." When I asked Google maps to locate "Dent, Colorado" the later UP RR branch name for the then branch line, It flagged a spot southeast of Milliken, Colorado. The area was once inhabited by the prehistoric 'Clovis' Indians. I guess I better investigate what is there now. Maybe I will find some prehistoric bones and old railroad traces.
(from - Wrigley's 1918 British Columbia Directory) - GLEN VALLEY - a Post Office and station on the C.N.R., 25 miles up the Fraser River from New Westminster, in Provincial Electoral District of Delta, in municipality of Langley, served by C.N.R. and river steamers from New Westminster, daily and semi-weekly. Nearest telegraph is C.P. R. at Whonnock, distant 1 mile. Has Anglican and R. C. churches. The population in 1918 was 300. Local resources: Fishing and farming.
The GLEN VALLEY Post Office was established - 1 November 1904 and closed - 30 April 1968 due to its limited usefulness. The patrons were then served via Langley RR No. 6.
Glen Valley had its mail service through the Whonnock Post Office until the 1930s. The GLEN VALLEY Post Office was in a general store at the corner of Jackman Road (272nd street) and River Road. Mail was rowed over every weekday morning after being sorted in the Whonnock Post Office. LINK - www.whonnock.ca/whonnock/PDFs/PostOffice.pdf
Brian Byrnes remembered: in the 1920s and 1930s, Glen Valley had its mail service through Whonnock post office. Mail was rowed over every workday morning after being sorted in Whonnock. Herb Cain of Glen valley deserves a place in post office history for his unfailing performance of this chore over many years. He never missed. The Glen valley post office was in a general store at the corner of Jackman Road, (272nd) and River Road. Brian sometimes helped out. it was a dangerous chore in winter when the river was frozen and one had to walk across and pick one’s way through jagged pieces of ice. The mailbag was tied to a shingle bolt—to avoid that it would get lost—and was dragged over the ice with a rope. One day when Brian arrived at the Glen valley side the ice collapsed in the centre of the river. A six-to eight-foot rift had formed that he had to cross on the way back, putting himself flat on the ice and crawling. Cold and wet, dragging the mail on the bolt behind him, he made it back to Whonnock. Through binoculars Brian’s father had watched him doing this. There were no more mail deliveries for Brian after this incident. LINK (page 13) - www.whonnock.ca/whonnock/PDFs/WN12-Post-Office.pdf

Addressed to: Fraser Valley Milk Producers Association / 425 West 8th Ave / Vancouver, B.C.
In 1913 thirty dairy farmers formed the Fraser Valley Milk Producers' Association, an organization which began operation in 1917 and became one of the most successful cooperatives in North America. The compact nature of the Fraser Valley was a geographic advantage which laid the basis for the success of the Association. The river itself, the railways, and the roads which were built slowly and at great cost, provided transportation which unified the Valley. The insatiable Cariboo markets enabled pioneer farmers to become well established. The completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway opened wider markets which dairymen were able to take advantage of after the creameries became established. The phenomenal growth of Vancouver in the first decade of the twentieth century provided a fluid market which was more lucrative. This market became accessible to farmers as far away as the Chilliwack Valley when the B.C. Electric Railway line was completed in 1910. - LINK to the complete article - open.library.ubc.ca/media/download/pdf/831/1.0101761/2
