It must be Spring as nests are popping up all over. This Great White Egret is bringing a finely selected stick back with him. I wonder if that is for the Living room or one of the Bedrooms...
Have a great weekend Everyone!

Ok, So I've had this Fuji X100F for a couple of weeks now and can't make up my mind if I love it or hate it. On the plus side it's small, mirrorless and inconspicuous, meaning I can get away with a bit more street photography without being glared at!
However, the ergonomics of the camera are painful. The grip if far to small, and as a result it's easy to accidentally knock one of the four buttons on the command dial. I've disabled two of them, but it's impossible to disable the "drive" button. As a result today I managed to knock the camera into "filters" mode without realizing it and spent 10 minutes trying to work out what I'd done. Somehow it also switch from raw mode to jpg mode at the same time which I didn't realize until I got home, at which point I gave the camera a stream of four letter words.
Another ruthless killer.
Have a great time guys.Thank you for visit.

Back at it again for dronuary. This drone is property of a private security firm, Sun-Tang. The handler, right, is one of the elite contractors upon which the company and its patrons rely.
CP train 251 displays the current theme of the Moosehead Sub; red GEVOs and lots of double stacks (visible in front of the engines on this wide curve) as they roll along Long Pond. CP's return to Maine has not brought much in the way of interesting motive power, which all seems to go down the D&H or west to Toronto from Montreal (this trains destination). CP sees lots of potential in reacquiring the 'Short Line' to the Maritime provinces, with armies of MOW workers and contractors laying new welded rail, ties and ballast in an effort to bring the track up to CP's 'Mainline Standards.'

This large masonry building was erected in 1895 as the principal offices and warehouse for Burns, Philp & Company Ltd, one of North Queensland's most successful trading enterprises.
The firm was founded in Townsville in 1873, when James Burns established a general retail business in Flinders Street. Robert Philp (later Sir Robert, KCMG and twice Queensland premier) acquired a share in the business in 1876. Due to ill health, Burns returned to Sydney in 1877, leaving Philp to manage the Townsville store.
In the late 1870s and early 1880s, Burns and Philp individually established trading networks in North Queensland, which were amalgamated as Burns, Philp & Company Ltd in 1883. By 1887 the company had disposed of their retail concerns, concentrating on the importation and wholesaling of general merchandise, and general shipping and insurance, with branches in London, Sydney, Brisbane, Cairns, Thursday Island, Normanton, Charters Towers, Cooktown, and New Guinea. The firm was employing 300 persons, owned their own fleet of small trading vessels, and was pioneering trade, communications and exploration throughout North Queensland, New Guinea, and the South Pacific. The company also had interests in North Queensland sugar, gold, and pastoralism. Although Robert Philp was bankrupted in the 1890s and resigned his interests in the firm in 1893, the name of Burns, Philp & Company Ltd was retained.
In Townsville, Burns, Philp & Company Ltd had acquired approximately 200 metres of Ross Creek frontage, on which they erected wharves and warehouses, with their offices in an old building which had been erected in the 1860s for Robert Towns and John Melton Black, the founders of Townsville. By 1895, Burns, Philp & Company Ltd dominated trade in Townsville, and their importance to this town and to North Queensland in general was illustrated in the erection of substantial new premises.
The new building was erected in nine months by contractor GS Gordon, and was opened on the 12th of November 1895. It was designed by Sydney architects the McCredie Brothers. Claude Chambers, in partnership with the McCredies from 1889 - 1893, supervised the construction of this building to the design of George McCredie. Arthur McCredie designed Burns, Philp & Company Ltd's principal Sydney offices, completed in 1901 and extended in 1909.
The two-storeyed section with frontages to Wickham and Flinders Streets housed the main offices: the shipping department on the ground floor and the manager's office and cashiers' and correspondence department on the upper floor. There was also a strong room and lavatory at each level. The three-storeyed section fronting Flinders Street was mainly warehousing, although the merchandise department, and behind this, the spirit room, were located on the ground floor adjacent to the shipping office, and accessed from this office via a door beneath the front staircase.
The building was designed for expansion. The walls, including the north-western end wall of the warehouse, were constructed with bricked-in arches to facilitate later extensions. In 1903 the company planned a three-storeyed brick extension to the warehouse along Flinders Street; this scheme was not carried out, but in 1913 - 1914 a long, single-storeyed, concrete warehouse extension was erected (no longer extant).
In 1922, the company's architect in Townsville, Walter Hunt, designed alterations to the offices and ground floor of the warehouse, extending the office area. These were carried out in three stages during 1922 and 1923. At this period, the arches separating the shipping and merchandising departments were exposed, and the large arched doorway from Flinders Street into the warehouse was bricked in, and three windows were placed in the bay.
On the 22nd of January 1949, fire gutted two floors of the hardware section of the building, causing substantial damage to the interior of the warehouse, including the collapse of the first floor. The roof and floors were replaced.
Burns, Philp & Company Ltd retained the building until 1977. At this stage the two-storeyed section was converted into a night club, a doorway was cut in the second end bay of the former warehouse, and the latter was converted to office accommodation. The building (including the former office accommodation) has largely been used as an entertainment venue since its initial conversion, with the property transferred to new owners in 2021.

I said, I did. The daedric version of the Contractor Mask was done.
Also, I'm using the Wintage version of the Somber ENB now. I loved it!! =D
The only Enviro500 not be either Bridges or Contactless branded is 38207, seen here on Balgownie Road on the Bridges 1.
Note the apparent dirt on the lower deck panels. This is actually tar that has been sprayed onto a number of vehicles, apparently thanks to a contractor failing to properly set the tar before re-opening a road back in late February.
Highly modified M4 for the contractors who want the best.
Mods- Improved gas/buffer system.
Gel coated grip for extra comfort.
Custom hand guard with built in flip up sight.
Fore grip with built in flashlight holder.

Hastings is the oldest surviving standard gauge locomotive built by Hunslet (459, 1888). Built for the contractor building the Manchester Ship Canal the engine led a nomadic life around England including helping with the construction of Brookland Motor-racing track (where my Grandfather worked for the Aviation industry). Preserved on the Kent & East Sussex railway in the 1960's the engine later underwent some restoration in Essex and was then finally completed by Statfold Engineering a few weeks before this open day. She is privately owned and was seen here exercising past Strawberry Fields platform.
This Left-Hand Drive Scammell Contractor was one of the heavy haulage machines that were active at the Welland (Malvern) Steam and Country Fair in 2023.
Ken at www.customminifig.co.uk suggested redoing this guy with the Hazel ISA M4. The result looks cool IMO, however I do like my Brickarms assault rifle / shotgun hybrid.
Scammell Contractor I spotted sitting around Wingfield. Looks like it was a prime mover, and it's running a Cummins NTA400 under the hood.
Holidaymakers paddle at Coryton Cove, near Dawlish, as 50009 "Conqueror" passes by with an ecs working on 7 July 1987. I think I was having a paddle, too, when I took this photo!
50009 was new, as D409, in March 1968. It was withdrawn from service in January 1991 and was scrapped by contractors at Old Oak Common in February 1991.
