At each end of the year the geese spend some time here preparing or recovering from their long migration flights. It starts with just a few pairs and ends up with beautiful squadrons in formations almost from horizon to horizon. Taken just after sunrise the early golden light was illuminating the birds from below which created a nice tone.
I was walking Duncansby Head in Scotland when I got way-laid for a while by the nesting birds in the cliff crevices. Watching aggressive gulls repeatedly attacking those which were protecting their eggs was dramatic, but I managed to catch this pair of parents doing a swift swap-over in between attacks - the one leaving had been guarding the nest for some time but now it was their other half's turn while they flew off in search of food.... Or at least, that was my interpretation of what was happening. I'm no ornithologist!
not only has the weather changed, rain is forecast for the next few days. Flickr has also changed, I can't find somethings, but I will get used to it :)

Mount Albion Conservation Area, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. I have always loved the colours that happen to this field in late summer, and have taken many photos in this same location. Development has overtaken this area. To the left and right of this image is now industrial land.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy;
for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves;
we must die to one life before we can enter another.

A few more shots from this mornings walk, apologies if it feels like you've seen them all before, it feels like I'm repeating myself again :)
The crew of 6G54 undergo a crew change to ensure the correct driver is available on the correct route. 66783 making its way from Toton to Northenden Junction with a load of finishing ballast briefly pauses for a driver with Hope Valley knowledge to take over.
Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.

Icebat and Ox hung on every minute of Barack's acceptance speech. We all agreed that we want to live in his beautiful dream of America.
I want it to be real.
Tho winds of progress howl and whine in his ears and waves of doubt crash over his procumbent form, he holds fast to his idyllic vision.
As told here: flic.kr/p/2pn2AuY the Bay Colony Railroad has lowered its flag after 41 1/2 years.
Here is the final train in New Bedford for the last time. After running east 7 1/2 miles across the length of the line the crew is making a few moves to pull the four loads they brought out on to the north leg of the wye for pick up by Mass Coastal. Then they will return this way down the main to pick up three empty gons and run thru the south leg and on to their Watuppa Branch for THE last run back west to Mid City.
This view looks north on the MassDOT owned and Mass Coastal operated New Bedford Secondary. Note the milepost denoting 53 miles to Boston via Middleboro and the former Old Colony mainline. This is a new milepost as the line is renumbered in anticipation of the start up of MBTA's South Coast Rail extension of T service. Prior to the change Nash Road was MP 29 as measured from the Northeast Corridor in Attleboro via the Middleboro Line thru Taunton, Cotley, and Myricks. The new signal mast with the heads turned afield is part of the South Coast project which has brought massive changes to what for years has been a rickety unsignaled freight branch seeing no more than two or three trains a week. In about a year when construction is complete and the line is ready for testing and startup, MassDOT will turn over control to the MBTA and Keolis will become the operator in place of Mass Coastal which will then only be the designated freight carrier.

A little bit of everything in this consist pulling a train past Tower B12. The new connection from the WC to the CP was under construction and the southern most track has been removed.
Taken from Tower B12.
A change was called for as I think you might have been getting a tad bored with my day trip out.
This was taken the other night as a result of trying a new contouring product and eye shadow pallet.
here you see me modelling my play suit thing. It doesn't look great when I stand up but it nice for relaxing in do those little jobs around the house.
I will show a full length photo.
High tide this afternoon. It was too cool for short sleeves, and too warm for a jacket. The weather looked okay to the east, and stormy to the west. Change in the air.
When she change to Asian look, she still the same person.
